1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to Texans All Access, brought to you in part

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: my Red Diamond, the preferred coffee and iced tea of

3
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. Here's the snap looking tall timing for

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: the pilot and he's got it. Rattle Castle, touchdown, two

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: stands and the Texans go in front. Game day. He's

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: every day. We had a lot of energy and we

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: brought a lot of spark for this organization. Five nights

8
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: a week. They hits keep on coming. The Texans say

9
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: they have it, and they go no, it's Texans All Excess.

10
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: Welcome in the Texans All Access. On a Tuesday, I'm

11
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: at DP City along with Drew Doherty, Mark vandermar. We

12
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: just wrapped up an hour with Eric Murray and it

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: was nice to actually meet him on Zoom because I

14
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: actually had not talked to him. I know Drew had

15
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: caught up with him in training camp, but good to

16
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: put a you know, get to talk to him for

17
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: an extended amount of time. I've have been just seeing

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: in the Zoom press conferences. But here we go. Week

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: ten at Cleveland. Eric haads back to his former team,

20
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: as does Duke Johnson, as does Romeo Carnell. Now two

21
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: and two as interim head coach. Let's go the Texans

22
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: are on a winning role. Let's hope they keep it going. Yeah,

23
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: and you know, Eric Murray in the secondary, they'll get

24
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: tested again with Baker Mayfield. This week. He talked about

25
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: how hard Baker Mayfield throws the ball, and he kind

26
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: of point out that Texans dropped some some picks last weekend.

27
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: Jake Luton, I guess he puts some mustard on the

28
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: ball and made a little bit tougher to catch. So

29
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: that's why we saw a few drops perhaps by the

30
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: Texans secondary, And hey, what happens if they do haul

31
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: in maybe two of those or one of those. How

32
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: much of a different game is what we saw on Sunday.

33
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter Texans one and that's good and that's fine.

34
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: But you know, Baker Mayfield had a good second half

35
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,559
Speaker 1: when he was hearing Houston as a rookie and can't

36
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: coming off a nice game. But there's been some shakiness,

37
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: some unsteadiness throughout the season, and the Texans are kind

38
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: of hoping for the bad Baker Mayfield as opposed to

39
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: the one that's been successful as of late. You know,

40
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: they can put up a lot of points. I know

41
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: they've had games where they haven't, but they've had games

42
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: where they have. They had a bad game against the

43
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: Raiders offensively the Bengals, I know they get Bengals give

44
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: up a bunch of points, but they were high scoring games.

45
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: And I just think that for the Texans until further notice,

46
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to see Deshaun Watson and company really

47
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: rocket through the air and you know, try to get

48
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: whatever they can get on the ground. I liked getting

49
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: over one hundred yards against the Jaguars. Watson was obviously

50
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: a huge part of that with the fifty yards, and

51
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: I think you gotta have it that way. You gotta

52
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: have Deshaun run the ball safely, safe running, but he's

53
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to run the ball for you because who

54
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: knows about David Johnson. You know, I like Duke is

55
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: a running back. You look at the numbers and they're

56
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: not pretty at all from the game, but I thought

57
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: Duke gets some pretty good runs, you know when you

58
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: needed them, a little cut back and some you know,

59
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: bursts here and there and eight yards here, eight yards there.

60
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: So more of that, please, more Watson runs and certainly

61
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: keep this high flying aerial attack going because look, that's

62
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: one of the numbers. Back it up. They are throwing

63
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: the ball at a rate that we haven't seen around

64
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: here maybe ever, right, I mean, he's putting up some

65
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: really nice numbers, and you got to continue to do

66
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: that because that's your best asset right now, number four

67
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: throwing the football to Fuller and Cooks and Cobb and

68
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: the rest of the guys. Well, it just seems like

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: he's his completion rate's gonna touchdowns, interception. The race here

70
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: has gotten better in weeks. It's just strange that it

71
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 1: hasn't translated to wins. Obviously, the defense, you know, has

72
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: had its issues, and the run game has had its issues.

73
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: But you'd think with Watson playing at the level that

74
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: he is, surely you'd be able to win some of

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: these games. And you hope that, you know what, the

76
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: pendulum swings the other way now in the second half

77
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: of the season and it is enough to overcome some

78
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: of the other deficiencies that the team has, because a

79
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: lot of teams have deficiencies. There are very few teams

80
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: in this league that are strong on both sides of

81
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: the ball. Like, every team's got its deficiency. But Watson

82
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: is playing as good as any quarterback out there right now. Yeah,

83
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: and you know last week was a perfect encount absolation

84
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: of all that is going on with the Texans in

85
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. In the middle of the week, he was

86
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: asked Deshaun Watson by the media about, hey, we know

87
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: you guys don't have the wins, and strictly from a

88
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: personal level or on a personal level, how do you

89
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: think you've been playing? And Deshaun said, well, you know,

90
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: we haven't won ball games, but I've never played quarterback

91
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,559
Speaker 1: this well, I've never spread the ball around this well.

92
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: And then what do we see on Sunday has another

93
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: great game. J J. Watt also gets his hundred sack,

94
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: and then afterwards in the locker room afterwards with the media,

95
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: he says, I'm not able to do that where if

96
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: it's out for a lot of my teammates now a

97
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: lot of my teammates before, cafeteria staff, strength and conditioning,

98
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: so on and so on. It's the ultimate team game,

99
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: and DeShawn is playing at his best, but he has

100
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: not been helped in certain aspects by the defense that

101
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: haven't held up there end of the bargain. And we're

102
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: not talking on a turn the defense has said, so, so, yeah,

103
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: he's got to keep this up, maybe even amp it

104
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: up a little higher if possible. And he's got to

105
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: get some from the defense, I think in the form

106
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: of takeaways, because the Browns are going to get their yards.

107
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: You know, this is a very very potent offense, but

108
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: you got to come up with a takeaway or two

109
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: or three. So Omar Mazooba PR Texans PR compiled all

110
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: these cool numbers about Watson and this is something I

111
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: didn't realize. When Watson connected with Fuller seventy seven yards,

112
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: it's the longest completion by a Texans quarterback since Week

113
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: ten of twenty eleven. All right, So since that was

114
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: match Shop against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, that was the

115
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: that was the game in which I mean, that was

116
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: the last game Shop played that year. And then they

117
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: went to Yates. That was Week ten. They were seven

118
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: and three. At that point they had won four in

119
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: a row. I remember it vividly. Yeah, I mean, Drew,

120
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: this is amazing that. I mean, I that one and

121
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: you know, most stats don't really uh you know, don't

122
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: really make me, you know, go, but that one did

123
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: because I thought, that's really our longest completion since twenty eleven,

124
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 1: and it is, and you've had watching around here. This

125
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: is year four for him, and you would think by

126
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: accident you might get one of those, but they haven't. Well.

127
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: I was surprised when I saw that about will Fuller,

128
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: that that's his longest right touchdown, because in my mind,

129
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: for some reason, I'm always going to think of that

130
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: bomb he caught at Seattle on the road as his lungs.

131
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 1: But it wasn't. It wasn't even close to the seventy

132
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: seven yards you got there. But it just shows you

133
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: how explosive and how spoiled we've gotten watching well, and

134
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: I don't know that we're spoiled, but how lucky we

135
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: are to see what this guy can do because he

136
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: is a deep, deep threat. What is it now, twenty

137
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: one or twenty touchdowns in thirty games with Watson. That's remarkable.

138
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he and nobody scored that quickly and that

139
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: much in their first forty eight games. Now he's been

140
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: injured for lots of chunks of that. But will Fuller

141
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: has just been so dynamic and such a fun guy

142
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: to watch the last four or five years. It's funny

143
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: that you mentioned the longest catch of Wulfullers because I

144
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 1: thought the same thing. I thought, surely, and it was

145
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: for different game. I thought his touchdown catch against Miami

146
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: on Thursday night, right before he tours Apel, I was like,

147
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: that has to be longer, and that's seventy three, so

148
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: that I think that was second and I remember that

149
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: he just had this beautiful touchdown catch, beautiful play, and

150
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: then that was it for him for the season. You've

151
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: got multiple seventy one town which seventy yard or was it? Yeah?

152
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: I mean with will Fuller, it's like, I don't know

153
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: what it is. I mean, this year, he's been healthy,

154
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: He's been playing great. That's the other thing. It's like

155
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: he's been playing his bist football. Watson has been playing

156
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: his best ball. Even JJ Watt, you know, for being

157
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: in year ten, he's having himself a great season. And

158
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, there's no secret about JJ Watt, like other

159
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: teams are focused on him and he's still able to

160
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: get the sacks. He leads the team. Now, Yeah, yere

161
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: and I love that his one hundredth was a strip sack.

162
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: You know, I wish the Texas recovered it, but it

163
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: was on a third down play. I love that it

164
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: was a drive stopper and how many times has he

165
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: done that in his career? Back to Fuller for a

166
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: moment here. I don't want to bog you down with numbers,

167
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: which means I'm about to bog you down with numbers.

168
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: But he's the only player in the NFL in the

169
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: last four years with at least twenty touchdowns on less

170
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: than two hundred and fifty targets. Now, that might sound

171
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: like a lot of verbiage right there, but trust me,

172
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: less than two hundred and fifty targets that he's got

173
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: twenty tds. The guy is an end zone magnet. Will

174
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: Fuller scores touchdowns. That's what he does. He and Watson

175
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: are prolific together and you're seeing the results right now.

176
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: And you brought up, and we all brought up how

177
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: the offense needs to, you know, continue to do this,

178
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,599
Speaker 1: and Drew said, you know, you need help around to

179
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: Sean and everything, there is some help. I think that

180
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: the key about Jacksonville was they got it going in

181
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: the first half. I know the second half they didn't

182
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: exactly explode, but they got it going in the first half.

183
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: And if you could do that, you do put more

184
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: pressure on the opponent. I mean Jacksonville. I know they

185
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: had that late touchdown drive and a chance to tie

186
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: with the two point conversion, but guess what, they had

187
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: a late touchdown drive because they were down. You need

188
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland to be down this week in the second half.

189
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: Got to keep the pressure on them. That's when watch

190
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: can go to work and things like that can happen

191
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: when you get striped sacks. So let's see the offense

192
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: continue to do this first half magic first half production. Hey,

193
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm a first drive production because that's the first first

194
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: drive touchdown Shawn Watson has led since Denver in twenty eighteen.

195
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: Remember that one. De Marius Yeah, coming back and seeing

196
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: his old team for the first time. That's how long

197
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: it went. Now, Ajan McCarron, they scored a touchdown on

198
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: the first drive right seventeen last year against the Titans,

199
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: but it had been a while since Deshaun and then

200
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: had gotten cooking. Maybe that can continue. If it does,

201
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: it just helps everybody. It helps your defense out, It

202
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: helps everybody out if you can do that and get

203
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: going early. To Tim, Kelly brought up the playoff game

204
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: to me and John and the playoff game against Kansas City.

205
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: You know we scored in the opening true, he did.

206
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: He did bring it up. I mean he just he

207
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: just rattled them off and he knew about obviously McCarron

208
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: because to them it's like, hey, their coaches and uh,

209
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: you know, they remember everything, they remember all of that stuff.

210
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,839
Speaker 1: But he acknowledged that that was big, you know, being

211
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: able to get it go, especially when you're down seven

212
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: nothing after they score their opening possession. I'm so traumatized

213
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: by Kansas City that I've pushed that back to a recess.

214
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: You blocked it out of my mind, So my bad.

215
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: We needed therapy for a regular see a regular season though.

216
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: You're you're on target. All right. Let's get into some

217
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: of the top stories of the week as a Texans

218
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: prepare for Cleveland. Was some hot reads presented by Geico.

219
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: Go to geico dot com and in fifteen minutes you

220
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: could say fifteen percent or more on car insurance. Well.

221
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: On Monday, Romeo Cornell said that the Texans would explore

222
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: options if running back David Johnson can't play this week.

223
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: Johnson left Sunday's game in the first quarter after a

224
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: big hit by linebacker Miles Jack behind David. The Texans

225
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: obviously have Duke Johnson, they also have Buddy Howell, CJ.

226
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: Pro Syce and Scottie Phillips, pro Syce and Philipster on

227
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: the practice squad. So Cornell essentially said the team might

228
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: also check out the waiver wire to see what o

229
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: their backs are available. But he does like what Duke

230
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: rings to the run game with his running style and

231
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: his blocking and his pass catching skills, So we could

232
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: see Duke take the load with David Johnson if he

233
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: continues to be up. I find it hard to believe

234
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: that he comes back for Sunday's game because that hit

235
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: by Jack was punishing. I mean, he walked off the field,

236
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: he seemed to shake it off, but we did not

237
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: see him again for the rest of that game. Yeah,

238
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: he got smoked on that one. And I wonder if

239
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: we see more of Scottie Phillips or does Buddy Howell

240
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: get more curious or is it the third option of

241
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: we don't really know it's precise or somebody off the

242
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: waiver wire off of but you know there's so many

243
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: veterans out there on other teams practice squads. I mean,

244
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's you know, like obviously that's

245
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 1: how the Texans ended up with Procise, But I think, well,

246
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: they might they do that. I mean, they're probably pretty

247
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: high on the waiver wire, but I don't see any

248
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: teams cutting running backs at this point in the season.

249
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: You know, this is where the preseason and having not

250
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: having one is. It's unfortunate because every preseason you get

251
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: a look at some of these backs and you know,

252
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: we don't know what Scottie Phillips can really do. We

253
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: saw a little bit of him in practice, but it's

254
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: been few and far between the times that you know

255
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: what he can actually do as a pro. Had a

256
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: great game here when he was in the Advocate Texas

257
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: kickoff a year or so ago, but that's a totally

258
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: different circumstance. And we've seen Buddy Howell in preseason action,

259
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: you know, do some nice things as a running back.

260
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 1: You know, he's excellent on special teams, But is it

261
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: something where you just want to keep in there and

262
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: maybe bring somebody else in to get some carries. It

263
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: seemed like Crinell was sort of hinting at how being

264
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: capable being able to, you know, give you some help

265
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: there at the running back spot. You know who's available

266
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: on a practice squad, Lamar Miller. He's on the Bears

267
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: practice squad. That would wow, that's interesting, And you could

268
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: sign a guy. I mean, I understand like with the camp,

269
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: but if you can get a guy that's familiar with

270
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: your offense and your system and you know what he

271
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: can do. Now, whether or not he's healthy is a

272
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: different story, but at least you have familiarity with him

273
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: and you know he'd kind of fit right in the law. Well,

274
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: Drew just saidative if you had a preseason, you'd see

275
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: how all these guys look at least with a few reps,

276
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: and some of the guys maybe a whole lot more

277
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: than others, and you'd have that library of material. Now,

278
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: every NFL team has a depth chart, a league wide

279
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: depth chart of who they think is the best available

280
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 1: at every position, whether it's from a practice squad or

281
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: a free agency on the couch whatever. And for the Texans,

282
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, knowledge of the offense is important,

283
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: so a guy like Lamar could come into play. You know,

284
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: Procise has been here. I don't know what they think

285
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: of Phillips. Again, you didn't see him in a preseason context.

286
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: So you'd love to have Scottie Phillips out here is

287
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: fifteen carries in a preseason game, and you really know

288
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: what you've got. I think knowledge of the offense, pass protection,

289
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: these are all important. You know, buddy, how it gets

290
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: in the other day and then they have the bad

291
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: exchange and the ball comes out. I mean, you can't

292
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: have that, But I think Buddy can give you something

293
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: between the tackles, pounding that you've been looking for from

294
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: time to time, and a fake to him would be

295
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: effective if you can get that kind of thing going.

296
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: But easy for me to say, they got to find

297
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: a way to do it. I do like Duke Johnson,

298
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: but I just don't think you can wear him out

299
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: in a game. You have to get some help. I

300
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: got a name for you, goal line situation. Okay, seeing

301
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: him do this a tight end in Cleveland before? How

302
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: about JJ Watt? Now about sarcastic, I'm like, no, let's

303
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: not be last time J played in Cleveland. Yeah, yeah,

304
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: fourteen season was the year of JJ on offense. There

305
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like a thousand years ago. I mean that

306
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: was six years ago, and it just feels like forever.

307
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: And I remember going to the Rock and Roll Hall

308
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: of Fame and Patti Smith. We were still doing the

309
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: pregame show on Fox back then, and we shot a

310
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: bunch of it there and it was just really interesting

311
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: to U to reminisce because he had Ryan Mallett against

312
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer in that game and what had the touchdown

313
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: catch and he also had didn't have a couple of

314
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: fifteen yard penalties on almost punts. Yeah, yeah, all day.

315
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: I remember Ryan Mallett afterwards said, who would have thought

316
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: my first NFL touched on as a starter would be

317
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 1: to J J. Watt. I don't think anybody anybody could

318
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: have been on that flying back and thinking, you know,

319
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: Mallett could be the starting quarterback in news football team.

320
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: You got to start the next week. And that was it.

321
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: That was all she wrote forever for Ryan. Too bad?

322
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: All right? Well, the Texans activated Max Sharping, Whitney Merciless

323
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: and Dylan Cole today. All three came off the reserve

324
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 1: COVID list. They have finished their isolation period. Jacob Martin, however,

325
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: is expected to finish out his ten days since he

326
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: did test positive just last Wednesday. So it's good news

327
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: for the old line, which suffered an injury in Sneil

328
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: kellamet day on Sunday. He went out with a concussion

329
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: and then obviously to get Whitney Morseless and Dylan coleback

330
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: is huge because that linebacker group was looking mighty thin

331
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: on Sunday. There were a ton of injuries in that

332
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: Jacksonville game, especially in the first half. It was very

333
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: hard to keep track of all the guys that were

334
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: coming and going. They all seem like pretty major injury. Yeah,

335
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: it's a good you gotta that's That's something that I

336
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: don't think can be underscored enough. I know it is

337
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: Jacksonville and this is boy that that's a franchise that

338
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: is in the valley. I mean they are really really

339
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: the Texans were touchdown favorites going into that game on

340
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: the road. I mean that's saying something in the NFL.

341
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: But not having all those guys and then losing more

342
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: of them as the game went on, it puts such

343
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: an onus onto Shaun Watson, such an notus on JJ

344
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: Watt on your stars to really come up big, and

345
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: they did. They came up big, They did what they

346
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: needed to do to get that win. And it wasn't

347
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: you know, quote unquote pretty but it could have been

348
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: a bigger blowout if you catch one or two or

349
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: three of those you know, almost interceptions. So yeah, I

350
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: thought it was a good effort and you take it. Man.

351
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: It's it's like we talk about all the time. It's

352
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: the journey and you just want to keep winning no

353
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: matter how it gets done. You gotta get some of

354
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: these guys back. I mean, you can't live like this.

355
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: You're going to Cleveland. You need to get the pass

356
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: rush going. You need win. You know, Jacob Martin will

357
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: about him and Romeo. I love Romeo's crystal clear clarity

358
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: in his press conferences, and you know the way he

359
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: describes things. It's so simple. But well, we didn't do

360
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: what we needed to do that side of the ball,

361
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: but we did on the other side, and at the

362
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 1: end we had enough points to win, and we took

363
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: the victory. And I'm thinking he's so right now. He

364
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: simplifies it so the lay person can understand it, and

365
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,199
Speaker 1: he's such a gentleman. I love listening to Romeo, but

366
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: I think that on that side of the football, on

367
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the football, you cannot live without Robie.

368
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: Gotta get him back somehow. Gotta get these other guys

369
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: back and get after it and improve, because we've seen

370
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 1: it here before, second halves of seasons where the defense

371
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 1: really starts to step it up. Now, it hasn't happened

372
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: every single year, but in the Crenell defensive coordinator era,

373
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: it's happened more often than not. So you need that

374
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: kind of thing to happened with Anthony Weaver as coordinator.

375
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: These guys continue to mesh in the defensive backfield and

376
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: however they need to mesh. I mean, it was really

377
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 1: disappointed that Robie couldn't go and whatever led to that.

378
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: But let's just see how they piece it together this week,

379
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: because it's only gonna get harder. I know that the

380
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: Patriots are underman and they had to rally to beat

381
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: the Jets on Monday Night football. And I know that

382
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: Cleveland is not exactly a Super Bowl contender, but you

383
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: can lose to these teams. I mean you almost you

384
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: could have lost to the Jaguars. You can lose to anybody,

385
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: so but you can also beat these teams. So let's

386
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: keep continue. Let's stack them here, Cleveland, Patriots, Detroit, let's

387
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: go all right? Well, speaking of injuries Brennan Scarlett. He

388
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: left an already depleted linebacker group with an arm injury.

389
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: Cornelsa it was a fracture, and then on Monday, the

390
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: Texans placed Scarlet on injured reserve. Now players can come

391
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 1: back after missing just three games, but it seems like

392
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 1: this might be it for Scarlett, if indeed it was

393
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: a fracture, because I think three weeks and it's just

394
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: not no, no doctor. But I think unless it's a

395
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: miraculous healing bone, it's probably not gonna he'll in three weeks.

396
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: Could he come back for the end of the season. Maybe,

397
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess nothing's out of the realm of possibilities,

398
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: but they're gonna have to make do with thought. Brendan

399
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: Scarlett and then Charles Amena, who who also went out.

400
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: We'll have to wait and see until tomorrow's practice to

401
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: see if he returns because he also left the game

402
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: in trade. I mean, it was just, you know what,

403
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: every time this team plays Jacksonville. Do you remember it

404
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,360
Speaker 1: was a Week one of twenty seventeen, the Tom Savage

405
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: game when Deshaun Watson came in the second half, didn't

406
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: didn't this team have like eight concussions or something crazy.

407
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: It was like five or six in that game, and

408
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: we had no tight ends. And the next week was

409
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: a short week at Cincinnati. That's when Deshaun had his

410
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 1: first start. I remember thinking, I hope he doesn't get

411
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: crushed because we have no tight ends. Our offensive line

412
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: was still kind of a mess back then. We're still

413
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: trying to jiggle it and find the pieces to put

414
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 1: it together. But it just seems like these divisional games

415
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: are just really punishing sometimes. I'm glad you brought that up.

416
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: They are brutal, and you know, case in point, I

417
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: just brought up the Patriots beating the some Monday night

418
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: football and the Jets were over going into the game,

419
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: and would it could have should have won that game.

420
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: The Patriots had to give them. You know, I know

421
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 1: this is not a great Patriot team, but you're three

422
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: and five. If you're in New England, give me three

423
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 1: and five. By the way, speaking of three and five,

424
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: if the Texans had somehow beaten Tennessee, all right, Drew's

425
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: laughing at me. If they had done that, Drew, they're

426
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: three and five, they're two games off the division. They

427
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 1: play the Colts twice. They played the Titans one more time,

428
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: and they already beaten them once in that scenario. And

429
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean they would have a lot of exciting possibilities

430
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: in front of them, and they almost did it. They

431
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: didn't do it. So you are where you are again.

432
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: Just stack wins and I'll talk to you later. It's

433
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: like Don Meredith always said, if if some butts were

434
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: candy nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas. So here

435
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: we go, turn out the lights. Not yet? Yeah, okay? Well,

436
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: JJ Wat unveiled his first athletics shoot for women last night.

437
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: It's gotta be a hot read. Then. JJ four was

438
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 1: designed alongside his wife Haleo oh Hi. There was only

439
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: one natural one natural color choice, gold Watch tweeted, so

440
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: I assume that's her favorite color. And for every pair

441
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: of purchase, the WAT team will be donating a pair

442
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: to the mission of Yahweh Women's Shelter or such a

443
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: good cause. So that's all j JJ forreys himself into

444
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: women's shoe design. Who would have thought that five years ago? Now?

445
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: I like the JJ stuff, But does he want me

446
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: to like it? Am I in the proper demographic here?

447
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,959
Speaker 1: I mean, like it's supposed to appeal to me, do

448
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: you have feet? Do you have feet and do you

449
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: have money? The answer is yes, then yes, I think

450
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: JJ wants your feet and your money to be wearing shoes.

451
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: And then on top of that, it's going to such

452
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: an like such an awesome cause mission. Yahweh. It's been

453
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: around Houston here for a long time. I mean I

454
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: remember growing up when I was a little guy, they

455
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 1: were kind of sort of just getting started. And stuff

456
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 1: they did is just and do is amazing. So that's

457
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: that's really cool that every shoe gets that gets sold,

458
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: they're sending some to to that that place to help

459
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: out a lot of good people. Cool. But yes, the law,

460
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: the short answer is yes, he likes it if he

461
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: wants your money, all right, speaking of sales. Jamie Roots,

00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: So a wealth of information, a wealth of knowledge from

467
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: the Texans President on how to build a successful franchise.

468
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: He came in here in two thousand, probably two thousand

469
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: and one before the first season. Right, mark is that

470
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: when Jamie was hired to thousand. I forget the year.

471
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: It was definitely no later than one. It might have been,

472
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 1: oh that Jamie was brought in. And I think it's

473
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: excellent for people to read about the behind the scenes

474
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 1: of the business side of the business. Right this is

475
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: not about like we drafted David Carr because we thought.

476
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 1: This is about setting up the franchise and this explains

477
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 1: to people why the Texans have sold out every game

478
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,479
Speaker 1: in France. Yea history. It's not about football. I mean,

479
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: I hate to say it. I mean it is about football,

480
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: but it's about it's about the customer. It's about the fans.

481
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 1: It's about taking care of people. It's about building the

482
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: culture in the organization and how that can translate to

483
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: whatever business you are in, you meaning the reader of

484
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: this book. So we highly recommended and proceeds benefits the

485
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 1: Houston Texans Foundation. Is cool, you know what. It's funny

486
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: because we work for the organization, so obviously we're biased.

487
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: But before I worked for the organization, I would attend

488
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: Texans games with my family and I remember we you know,

489
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: we were up on the club over for one game

490
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: and we're coming down the escalator and there were a

491
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: bunch of people coming down the escalator and my husband said,

492
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: you know what, I think this could end up being

493
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: a traffic jam because there's a little landing spot in

494
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 1: the middle before you use the final escalators to go down,

495
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: so it was like third floor down to the second floor,

496
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: down to the final first floor. And he said, you know,

497
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of congestion, like people could

498
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: get smashed or little kids could get squished. If it's

499
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: too many people coming down, it's like a bottleneck that

500
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: gets created there. So I said you should write You

501
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: should write them because they're always asking for fan feedback.

502
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,439
Speaker 1: I was like, just write them a note and say something.

503
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 1: He's like, all right, sure, I'm sure nobody will ever

504
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: see it. He writes a note, and the very next

505
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: game they had somebody standing there and they were at

506
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: the top of the escalator allowing only so many people

507
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 1: on at a time. And I directly to this day

508
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 1: think that that was directly because they listen to fan feedback.

509
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: It was amazing, and you know, they really take it

510
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 1: seriously when fans say something, you know that they want

511
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: on corporate I think it's all part of the game

512
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: day experience, but I think the attention to detail is

513
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: second to none. Oh they damn sure, dude, listen to

514
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: fan feedback. I mean I know of I know for

515
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 1: certain that there are at least two people dedicated solely

516
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: to that website, that email address, that phone number, Like

517
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: they are constantly updating things, and there is no detail

518
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: too small like you're talking about. I remember my first

519
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: year here, way back when two thousand and nine. I

520
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: used to go out into the parking lot and interview

521
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: tailgators before games, and Jamie came along with one of

522
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: them because he was doing an interview with us. So

523
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: I was just amazed at like every little speck of

524
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 1: trash that he saw he was picking up and thrown away.

525
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: If there was a sign that was blown over, he

526
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: went and picked it back up and set it up

527
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 1: right and then talked to whoever was in charge of that.

528
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he has an eye on everything. Even

529
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: though he's flying at that thirty five thousand foot level,

530
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: he's also like flying simultaneously three inches off the ground.

531
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: It's it's really interesting to see. And yeah, you're right,

532
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: you make a suggestion, there's a pretty darn good chance

533
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna get implemented by the next game. Except I

534
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: told him, Hey, when are we going to see tattoo

535
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: Parlors up on the five? Not quite there yet? And

536
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: you well, both of you guys sat down with Jamie

537
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: for a one on one. I'm sure we'll be hearing

538
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: those interviews in the next week or so. We're gonna

539
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: have him again. We had him on the We're on

540
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 1: the pregame show a few weeks ago at the last

541
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: home game against Green Bay. We'll have one again for

542
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: the next home game to talk about the book a

543
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 1: little bit more. And it's always nice to catch up

544
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: with the team president. All right, let's take a break

545
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: when we come back. What about Baker Mayfield? How much

546
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: has he changed since his rookie year to year three?

547
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: And reasons for optimism. There's tons when it comes to

548
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: the Texans heading with this final stretch of the season.

549
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna get too. All that plus playoff changes. That's

550
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,560

647
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: to Texans All Access. It's Week ten. It's Cleveland Week.

648
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: The Texans head up to Cleveland back to back road

649
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: games as they take on the Browns. Browns are five

650
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: and three. The Texans have two wins on the season.

651
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: They're two and two now under Romeo Crawl. They hope

652
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: to make it three wins and hopefully they can do so,

653
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: but they're gonna have to get past a guy named

654
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. You cannot watch. I cannot watch five minutes.

655
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: It seems like a football on Sunday when I'm home

656
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: without seeing him on a commercial, and you know what, guys,

657
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: he's like really entertaining. I really like gonna say I

658
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,719
Speaker 1: was gonna say, like, am I gonna get beaten up

659
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: for saying his I think his commercials are kind of

660
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: really good. You know what you are good? You know

661
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: what's gonna be? What will impress me even more? I

662
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: was talking to the Browns radio host in Cleveland. He

663
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: said that Baker does a little bit of improv in

664
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 1: those commercials, so they give him a script, but then

665
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: he kind of does his own thing. So it's more

666
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: natural and more him, which is what I think makes

667
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: it so likable and relatable. It just seems like very natural.

668
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem like he's acting or reading a script. Well,

669
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: I you know, look, I enjoy him too, I really do.

670
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: I just think that if you're the Browns quarterback, you've

671
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: got to be careful doing too many commercials. Early. I

672
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: remember a Browns quarterback named Brady Quinn who did this right,

673
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 1: and we were up there facing them, but he wasn't playing.

674
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: It was Geez who was the other guy. It wasn't Kelly. Yeah,

675
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: there was somebody else with him there that was starting

676
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: instead of Brady. And now Brady's doing well in serious

677
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: exams radio talking about the NFL. But you gotta be careful,

678
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: you know, you really want to establish yourself a little

679
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: bit more before you start doing some national stuff. But look, whatever,

680
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: I think he's established as a big name Heisman Trophy winner,

681
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: and he's taken Cleveland to it's not great success, but

682
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: for them, they are having some success and they have

683
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 1: a lot of hope, and I think that that's a

684
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: great thing for them because the last time they were

685
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 1: doing quote this well was when we were there in

686
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen and they were six and three with Brian

687
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 1: Horror coming off a blowout, went over the Bengals and

688
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,479
Speaker 1: then the Texans just took them apart and they haven't

689
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 1: been the same since until they drafted Mayfield and got

690
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: themselves some hope. So we'll see how it goes. Now.

691
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,360
Speaker 1: I'd much rather be playing the Browns of three to

692
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,800
Speaker 1: four years ago. We just had like, you know, walking

693
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 1: the park kind of game on Sunday. Not that there's

694
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: such a thing in the NFL, but I'd much rather

695
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 1: have that. This is going to be a hotly contested affair,

696
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: and it's a good one. I mean, the slate this

697
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: week nationally is so good in the NFL, and then

698
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,280
Speaker 1: you have this game Baker Mayfield versus Deshaun Watson. This

699
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 1: is good stuff. It's going to be entertaining noon Sunday.

700
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: Be there. Well, you know, I think with Baker Mayfield,

701
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 1: it's like they were bad for so many years. They

702
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: had all these picks, and then they made it, and

703
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: then it became once he was there. I feel like

704
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: he drew a lot of free agents to Cleveland that

705
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: normally might not have signed with Cleveland. So even with

706
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Junior now out for the season with a

707
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: torn a SILD. They still have Jarvis Landry, they still

708
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: have Kareem Hunt. Kream Hunt had seven touchdowns this year, running,

709
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: rushing and receiving touchdowns. They get Nick Chubb back this week.

710
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 1: He was on ir he comes back, so the run

711
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: game is fortified. On their defense, they've got Miles Garret,

712
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: They've got Sheldon Richardson. It seems like they've become a

713
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: little bit more balanced. And it's hard to believe it's

714
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski's first year coaching, because in a weird COVID year,

715
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 1: you think new head coaches are going to be at

716
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: such a disadvantage. But it seems like they're putting the

717
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 1: pieces together and things are starting to click. We heard

718
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 1: Eric Murray say, feels like Baker Mayfield's making better decisions,

719
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: so obviously less interceptions. I remember in twenty eighteen, Remember

720
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 1: that was the day that Baker Mayfield woke up feeling

721
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: quote dangerous, and the only thing that was dangerous was

722
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: the fact that he threw three interceptions on back to

723
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: back to back drives in the second Because it was

724
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: not a pretty day. I mean, the Browns turn it

725
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 1: around in the second half, but it was it was rough.

726
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 1: Going his rookie season. He threw a lot of picks

727
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: last year, twenty one picks last year. Now he's fifteen tds,

728
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: seven picks. The yards per attempter down, that means they're

729
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, they're going with some short, controlled passing game

730
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:22,879
Speaker 1: stuff you mentioned, throwing on the backs, hunt whatever. And accuracy.

731
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: You know, here's the thing, this is such a big

732
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: number to me. In the NFL. Last year he wasn't

733
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 1: even sixty percent. This year he's sixty one and change.

734
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,280
Speaker 1: You want to be sixty five plus in today's NFL,

735
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: and I think that's a bit of an issue for

736
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: him because when you're not throwing it deep a lot,

737
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: which he's doing that less. Now, you gotta be accurate.

738
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta be you gotta be sixty five plus.

739
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 1: You know, Deshaun Watson's right up there among the league

740
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: leaders in completion percentage. And I think accuracy does translate

741
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 1: to a degree from college to pro. So that's been

742
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,760
Speaker 1: a bit of an issue for him. I mean, sometimes

743
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: he's on the money and makes great throws and he

744
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 1: can scramble, he can make plays like that, but he

745
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 1: does have some control issues to use baseball terminology, So

746
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that's the case on Sunday against the Texans.

747
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,760
Speaker 1: Now we've seen to Shaun Watson and the terror quote

748
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 1: unquote he's been on over the last four or five

749
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: six games. I wonder how much, because much has been

750
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 1: made before the season started about how well Deshaun played

751
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 1: in primetime games, I don't wonder how much motivation is

752
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: there or how much extra juice is there when he

753
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: plays against some of these good young quarterbacks like Mahomes,

754
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 1: Like what we're going to see later this year? Not

755
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 1: maybe not people aren't gonna call him good, but will

756
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: we see Mitchell Trubisky, who was drafted ahead of him,

757
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: you know, in Mayfield is in this crew, Like does

758
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: he get a little bit more geeked up and want

759
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 1: to I don't know. I just I think it seems

760
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 1: like it kind of happens a little bit better for

761
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: him when this when these sort of matchups come and

762
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, they're not facing each other, you know, directly,

763
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: but I gotta think there's a little something extra there

764
00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 1: for him, don't you know. It's funny. I think certain

765
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 1: guys like Watt is one of them. You know, he'll

766
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: find motivation wherever he can. You know, he's got plenty already,

767
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 1: but they're always looking for that extra juice, you know.

768
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 1: And you know, I like liking this to me playing

769
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: pickup basketball because it's the same that No it's not.

770
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 1: But I've had those moments where I kind of get

771
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: angry at somebody or whatever and I'm playing a lot harder.

772
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: I noticed, and I got a lot more energy, And

773
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, is this what the pro athletes do when

774
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: they're trying to get a little Like that guy just

775
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 1: respected me, and all of a sudden, you get more

776
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: adrenaline because every little bit is gonna make it go

777
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: a little further, you know, one step farther, one, you know,

778
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: a little bit faster, whatever the case may be. So

779
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about Watson though, because he always seems

780
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: the same to me. Bill O'Brian always said that about him.

781
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: He always plays the game with joy. He's always smiling

782
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: even when they're down. And I don't take this the

783
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 1: wrong way at all, by the way, because I think

784
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 1: he lives in the moment. He's like, I'm gonna make

785
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: a play. I'm gonna make a play every play and

786
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: if I can't make a play, I'm getting ready for

787
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: the next play. And I think he does keep it

788
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: in the moment, which is what you have to do

789
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 1: if you're him, you know, you gotta have that kind

790
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: of composure. And he just plays the game with joy

791
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: and and he's dying to make a plays, dying to win.

792
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: But I'm curious through will he have extra motivation when

793
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: he goes to Chicago when he's taken on Joe Burrow

794
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 1: or Baker Mayfield. I don't know. I think he's well

795
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: aware of those situations. We'll see, you know, we'll see.

796
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 1: I think it'll be a great matchup either wig, I

797
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 1: think for Chicago. For I think any time he faces

798
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 1: someone that you know, drafted, any team that drafted a

799
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 1: quarterback ahead of him or passed on him, I mean,

800
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: I just think that's natural. He's just a competitor. He

801
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 1: of course, he's talked about it. You know, he feels

802
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 1: like he's just as good as as any of those

803
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks. And Chicago gave up quite a lot to

804
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,839
Speaker 1: take Mitchell Trubisky in that draft, so you know, I'm

805
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: sure you don't want to come out there and make

806
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 1: and let them feel like they made the right decision.

807
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: You know, of course you want you know, the fans

808
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,280
Speaker 1: certainly don't think so. The fans, you know, the fans

809
00:39:58,280 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 1: are like, we could have had Patrick Mahomes or just

810
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 1: On Watson, and but the Bears are well aware that

811
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 1: they made the wrongs. They were well aware. But you know,

812
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: hindsight is always always twenty twenty. But you know, when

813
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:14,399
Speaker 1: you mentioned Deshaun being so positive and happy, I did

814
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: think earlier this year, there was after one of the

815
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: losses when when he was, you know, just very introspective

816
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,240
Speaker 1: in talking about how he's he's really hard on himself sometimes,

817
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,320
Speaker 1: like he wants to make every play and make every completion,

818
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: and you know he kind of internalizes that. And I

819
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: felt like the way he was playing earlier this season

820
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: in those losses, you know, he was trying to do

821
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: too much, you know, and he was trying to write

822
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: the ship and it just sort of took time. Maybe

823
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 1: maybe it took the bye week, Maybe it was after

824
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien left and then Tim Kelly took over. I

825
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: don't know what. Maybe it was a combination of all

826
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 1: those factors. But then it's like you get Brandon Cooks

827
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: going and wolf Fuller going and all of a sudden

828
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: things started clicking. So whatever he had to iron out

829
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: in the first few weeks of the season, I think

830
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: it's ironed out. I think watching Brandon Cooks and Wolf

831
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,879
Speaker 1: Fuller opposite him, like, I mean, it doesn't. We talked

832
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 1: about covering up deficiencies on a team. I mean, if

833
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: you can stretch the field. He had what that second drive,

834
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: the opening drive for the Texans where they had the touchdown,

835
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: that was a two play drive, like bam, bam, I

836
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 1: mean beautiful, just he just good. And then he scrambles.

837
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: He scrambled on that other touchdown that led to the

838
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson touchdown runs, So you know what I mean.

839
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: He just seems so comfortable and free, and I feel

840
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 1: like that's something that we were kind of missing earlier

841
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 1: this year. I agree. I mean, I think what they're

842
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: getting right now is all around a good offensive perform,

843
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: a really good offensive performance from the aerial game and

844
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,840
Speaker 1: all that involves. And it just needs to improve on

845
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 1: the ground and clearly the defense needs to continue to

846
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: play better. But we talked about it, the deficiencies in

847
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: personnel because of injury or COVID or whatever certainly was

848
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: a factor. And I don't know how they're going to

849
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: piece it together Sunday, but we'll be watching. All right,

850

Speaker 1: All Right, we've talked so much about the Cleveland Browns.

962
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,439
Speaker 1: I feel like we've got to get to the story

963
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:16,240
Speaker 1: or we may run out of time. But the sixteen

964
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: game playoff format, We've mentioned it a week ago that

965
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: the NFL owners were going to vote on it. This week,

966
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: the Competition Committee brought the resolution to the owners. Well,

967
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 1: it passed unanimously today. However, the sixteen game format only

968
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 1: happens if some of the games of the regular season

969
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: don't get played. So it's it's like a contingency plan, right,

970
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,319
Speaker 1: it is? It is, And I think that the week

971
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: eighteen plan is also part of this, right, where they

972
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 1: could reschedule some games for Week eighteen, and then once

973
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: that option is exhausted, then they go to the sixteen

974
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,280
Speaker 1: team format. I don't know when they make these decisions.

975
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: What if we're barreling in our Week seventeen and all

976
00:48:58,040 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 1: of a sudden, bam bam bam, you get all these

977
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 1: COVID cases and I guess they have to just implement

978
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: it and go for it. It's gonna be interesting. They

979
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:08,359
Speaker 1: really feel like because it's obvious, you know, the first

980
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 1: few weeks we're sailing along, then the cases boo boo boop,

981
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 1: Tennessee a couple of other teams. Now I can't even

982
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: keep track of who's had COVID issues. It feels like

983
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 1: the entire league. Baker Mayfield's on the list, and it's

984
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 1: like not a big deal because it's like through contact tracing,

985
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: so we'll probably be back at some point. But to

986
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,719
Speaker 1: your point, Mark, the COVID case has reached an all

987
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: time high last week. The first week in November, they

988
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 1: were up to fifty six. But it seems like the

989
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: league is doing a good job of with the contact tracing,

990
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 1: finding the positive test, isolating the players because it seems

991
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: like they just want to want to play these games.

992
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: I was never really that worried that the Jacksonville Texans

993
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: game wouldn't happen, right because I felt like they they

994
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 1: will find a way to make the games. Whether it's Sunday, Monday, Tuesday,

995
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: the game will get played. This is why you have

996
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: go ahead. Row. I was just say, think about how

997
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:01,839
Speaker 1: remarkable our jobs have. The remarkable change just in our

998
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: three jobs, we haven't seen these guys or been near

999
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 1: these guys since we walked off the field at Kansas

1000
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: City back in January. I mean, yeah, so the people

1001
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: that they come in contact with that that has been

1002
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: just have if not cleaved off, you know, by seventy percent.

1003
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: We haven't talked to these guys except via zoom, you know,

1004
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: and they're we don't don't see him in the cafeteria

1005
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: like we used to all the time. They go in

1006
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: the cafeteria, they pick up their box lunch, you know,

1007
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:33,600
Speaker 1: spaced out, and they go eat it, you know, by themselves. Essentially,

1008
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: we're eating our office our lunches up in our offices upstairs.

1009
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:40,560
Speaker 1: So I mean they come in contact with so many

1010
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: or so fewer people than they had before. And that's

1011
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: just one aspect of this. They have one, very very

1012
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: small aspect of how careful the NFL has been in

1013
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 1: really all sports in particular, but especially the NFL. They've

1014
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 1: been vigilant about it since they've started getting these guys

1015
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 1: back in buildings, you know, last July. You know, I

1016
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,440
Speaker 1: think everybody in COVID, no matter what you do, you're

1017
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: living your own version of your bubble. Right your bubble

1018
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,359
Speaker 1: might be very flexible you might leave your bubble, but

1019
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: it's still kind of a bubble, right, And for them,

1020
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,080
Speaker 1: it's not a pure NBA bubble, of course. I mean

1021
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 1: they go home and everything, and they see people at

1022
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: home who might have gotten other places. But I think

1023
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: they're being very careful, and you know they're told to

1024
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 1: be careful. And here I am asking Eric Murray last

1025
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,800
Speaker 1: hour about barbecue, and you know, it gets to Houston.

1026
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 1: He's in the middle of a pandemic and he's not

1027
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: an old lineman, so he's not gonna order take out

1028
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 1: barbecue every night. Right, He's a dB. He's probably leading

1029
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:36,840
Speaker 1: out falfa sprouts and tofu and who I'm just kidding around.

1030
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 1: But the point is this, they've been very careful, like

1031
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 1: Drew said, and they test every single day. When you

1032
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: test every day, you can learn a lot about coronavirus

1033
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 1: as the league has and who it affects, how it

1034
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,239
Speaker 1: affects them, and you know how many days it takes

1035
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 1: for somebody to pop up positive or not in the

1036
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:58,839
Speaker 1: contact tracing you mentioned Mayfield. You know he doesn't have

1037
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: it as far as we know right now, and that's

1038
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 1: awesome for him. You know, I don't I don't wish

1039
00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: it on anybody. That's awesome for him. He can come

1040
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 1: back and play a SAP. I mean, obviously if you

1041
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 1: have it, it's a different deal, especially if you have symptoms,

1042
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: because then it becomes a completely different situation. Yeah, I mean,

1043
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: I think with even with the Baker Mayfield, like probably

1044
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 1: he'll isolate for five days and then he's off the list.

1045
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 1: But even with the testing positive, I think players have

1046
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 1: learned now that if someone tests positive, what a huge

1047
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 1: inconvenience it is to the rest of the team and

1048
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,400
Speaker 1: everyone knows that you're the guy that had the positive.

1049
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 1: Now a lot of times it cannot be controlled, like

1050
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:32,879
Speaker 1: you just get it. You don't know where you got

1051
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: it from. But you know, if you get it doing

1052
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 1: your normal duty, living your life, of course, that's unavoidable.

1053
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,279
Speaker 1: But they're not doing any high risk activities, you know,

1054
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,319
Speaker 1: like they were a lot of teams across the league

1055
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,439
Speaker 1: where players doing across the you know, the off season

1056
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 1: where they were training in different parts of the country

1057
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: with other guys. Like now they're just really with their

1058
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 1: teammates and you know, staff personnel. Everyone's getting tested. So

1059
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 1: the contact tracing even then, like last week we saw

1060
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,080
Speaker 1: Whitney Mercilessdyllham Cole. We saw a few guys go on

1061
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 1: that contact tracing list Like now, I'm sure these guys

1062
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: will be even further separated from each other, because no

1063
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 1: one wants to miss a game, especially if it's because

1064
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: of contact tracing. I'm wondering what happens next year. I mean, this,

1065
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: the whole COVID era here that we're in that started

1066
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: in March, forces you to live in the moment in

1067
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 1: so many ways, because i mean, what's twenty twenty one

1068
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,520
Speaker 1: going to look like? Right for the NFL, I'm just

1069
00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 1: talking sports here. We don't know yet, you know, and

1070
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 1: you know you hear about the vaccine and everything, but

1071
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: the league has to plan for every scenario, right And

1072
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,359
Speaker 1: when this whole thing got started, there was no way

1073
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 1: you thought the Super Bowl would be played in front

1074
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 1: of reduced fan capacity or whatever they're gonna do. But

1075
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 1: here we are, and you know, who knows how much

1076
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 1: longer it's going to continue. It really affects the business model.

1077
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 1: I feel awful for the other sports. I mean, there's

1078
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: so many things to feel awful for. Okay, so the

1079
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: list is too long to list here, but I'm just

1080
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: going over sports right now. At least the NFL is

1081
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,439
Speaker 1: a great TV show, always gets good numbers and people

1082
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 1: will support it because you know, we need our bread

1083
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: and circus or entertainment. All right. Well, speaking of great

1084
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:05,959
Speaker 1: TV shows, we've got a couple of great TV shows

1085
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,080

1090
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,799
Speaker 1: great writer. I missed doing Extra Points because when we

00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 1: there with Sean. That was like my time to catch
