Johnny quick comment on golf as 11 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: a spectator sport was jumped out at me this morning. 12 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: Once again, this is the one spectator sport where watching 13 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 1: it you might get a better workout than the actual participants. Yeah. 14 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: I think that's true. I've gone to the hun Open 15 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: a few times. I haven't walked the course, man, I 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: haven't walked the course in a long time. But you're 17 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,959 Speaker 1: following a particular player, which some people have the philosophy 18 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: almost hit the thirteenth green. Yeah, some have the philosophy. 19 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: I'm following this particular player and you actually you had 20 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: a good group you were following. By the way Phil Mickelson, 21 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: Justin Rose and Russell Henle. It's a pretty good one. 22 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: And I picked him up on they played the back 23 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: nine first. I picked him up on fifteen and I 24 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: only followed them for three holes, but it was enough. 25 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: I mean three and a half. I picked him up 26 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: on the fifteenth three, which is a great spot. Oh, 27 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: I just let it out of the bag. It's a 28 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 1: great spot because you can walk over the sixteen, see 29 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: them t off, go back to fifteenth Green a lot 30 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: of fifteen is cool because today they were hitting into 31 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: the win. They weren't getting there in two, so you 32 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: see the approach shots and then you go to sixteen, 33 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: which is a wild crazy It's not like Phoenix the 34 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: four three, but it's a wild crazy scene over there. 35 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: It's cool. You know, it's funny because people say, oh, 36 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: Tiger's not there, But to me, it's like in the 37 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: NFL when you're watching a primetime game with the Ravens 38 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: and the Steelers. All right, those aren't the two best 39 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: teams in the NFL, but you're gonna watch that game 40 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: and be entertained. So why not watch this? You got 41 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: Speed out there and Phil and all these other players 42 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: that you like and a few of the other guys 43 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: justin Rose I mentioned, I mean too many to mention here. 44 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: I enjoy it. It's funny though, you would and it 45 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: would never happen this way. You wouldn't want season tickets 46 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: to golf. It's just too much walking and everything. It's 47 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: just good that it's in your town once a year. 48 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: You check it out, and then you watch it on 49 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: TV because it's a great TV sport. I think the 50 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: Master's Weekend to me is one of my It's one 51 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: of my favorite weekends, which is funny for me to say, 52 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: because you know how much I love football. I love 53 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: all of sports. Actually, in Final four this weekend in 54 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: San Antonio, and that obviously gets my attention. Is gonna 55 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: be on TBS. So if you're looking for it on CBS, 56 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: you look for it on TBS because of the first 57 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,839 Speaker 1: time it's gonna be on cable, which is interesting. You know, Yeah, 58 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: it's on TBS, but golf to me on a day, 59 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, it's on TBS. I mean, I'm in 60 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: the business and I don't understand why this happened. Well, 61 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: how about this thinking about this way too? Yeah, College 62 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: football National Championship. The difference college basketball National Championship are 63 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: now both on cable. Yeah, are both on because the 64 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: National Championship game and the requisite semifinal, the playoff, they're 65 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: all on ESPN, and this is on TBS. Think about that. 66 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: I know it's a partnership with CBS and Turner, I 67 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: get that. Yeah, but I still think the Championship on 68 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: CBS free television. That's one thing. The Super Bowl has 69 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: never been on cable. No, never, No, I don't think 70 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: it will and never never will. But I found it 71 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: interesting when they said they were moving it over to TBS. 72 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: I saw this comment a few years ago when I 73 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: when they had announced, you know, this partnership that they 74 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: were with TBS. I love the way they do the 75 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: first and second round now where you can go to 76 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: true TBS, CBS or TNT and you can watch any 77 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: of those games you want. I think it's fantastic. I 78 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: think it's so good the way. Yes, it's great, but 79 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: the Final Four being at TBS was like, it feels weird. 80 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: I'll find it because I want to watch those games, 81 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: but there'll be a lot of fans are like fifty 82 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: one Xfinity. I know this because TBS if they don't 83 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: have that it's gonna be a Friends episode because I 84 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: think it's the Friends channel. They run Friends twenty four 85 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: hours a day. They do. It's not a problem. Friend. 86 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: My kids have got into watching Friends, so I've gone 87 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: back up. I've been watching a lot of the old 88 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: Friends episodes and it's you know, that show is in 89 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: the nineties, early two thousands, and some of the some 90 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: of the humor they have, like while they got away 91 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: with that? Okay, yeah back then. Yeah, but it was 92 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: on at what eight? Was it on at eight o'clock? Right? 93 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: And eight thirty was Mad About You? Nine o'clock was Seinfeld, 94 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: nine thirty Wait, first Night Court and then something else? Yeah, 95 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: Man at Thursday Night NBC's Thursday Night Killer and Law 96 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: ten followed by e R replaced it. So do you 97 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to golf, do you like watching it 98 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: on NBC with with Johnny Miller? You like watch on CBS? 99 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: You got a little bit of mixed in or Jim Nance? 100 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: Which which one I would love to blend the cruise 101 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: because I really like Nance. Yeah, I really do. I 102 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: think Dan Hits Kicks is good, there's nothing wrong, but 103 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: I really like Nance. I really like Johnny Miller. I 104 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: wish Nance and Johnny Miller would work together. Um. I 105 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: like Farrety food from CBS to NBC, but I miss 106 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: Farredy at the Masters. Verne is Verne, so a great 107 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: sixteenth part three at Augusta. Give that to me, and 108 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: by the way, Augusta next week. Like you mentioned, I 109 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: would just like to walk the course on a Tuesday. 110 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: I don't even care about the part three around. You've 111 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: got to see the part three. I don't care about 112 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: the part three. I don't care about the players, I 113 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: really don't. I just want to see the course and 114 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: then go back and watch it on television so I 115 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: know what the undulation. Everyone talks about the undulation, so 116 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,679 Speaker 1: I know what that looks like. Here's another thing about golf. 117 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: You will never play football most people at NRG Stadium, 118 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: But you could get on at Golf Club of Houston 119 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 1: at all likely. Yeah, you could and play a course 120 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: that is played by the pros. Now you can't play Augusta. 121 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: I get it. You can play a lot of US 122 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: Open courses. We played the Green Bark Course. We played 123 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: the green Browsers a tournament there. I love playing courses 124 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: where there are pro tournaments and then watching those tournaments 125 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: on TV, and I'm thinking, hey, I know that. Yeah, 126 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: it's kind of fun that way. Yeah, so uh, it's 127 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: it's a great time. I encourage everybody to go on 128 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: out there and in about a month what the Inspiraity 129 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: is going to take place in the Woodlands tournament course, 130 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: and that's free, free admission for everybody. I think the 131 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: being this, I mean to be outside on a day 132 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: like today, it was unbelievably nice. I mean it was 133 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 1: so nice. This is the kind of day you would 134 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: want to walk. Of course, you would want to be 135 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: out there. The rains held it up a little bit 136 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: on Thursday, but then they got that teet off and 137 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: the weather was great Thursday. It was great today earlier 138 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: for the week, it's gonna be fantastic. So I like. 139 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: I like going to golf tournaments. I've been to a few. 140 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: I used to. I went. My very first one was 141 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: do you remember Calvin Peate. Oh, Calvin Pete was the 142 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: first golfer I ever saw live. He's at the Milwaukee 143 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Open many many many years ago, and I was that 144 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: was the first golf tournament I gone too. But it 145 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: was the Houston Open and that was fantastic. But I, 146 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: you know, to be at Augusta on I don't even 147 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: know that I would want to walk with Tiger. But 148 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: if Tiger's in this thing on the weekend at Saturday Sunday, 149 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: I mean the TV, the rating will be off, the 150 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: chart will be off the chart. And he walks up 151 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: the eighteenth. If he makes the cut even oh Sunday 152 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: walking up the eighteenth, it's gonna be crazy. But how 153 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: about Tiger being in it? That would be wonderful. I 154 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: followed Phil today, like we said, and I like Phil. Look, 155 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: I like all the guys. I want to watch it 156 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: and see I just want to see great close finishes. 157 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: But you know, in the NFL it's just different. Obviously 158 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: it's not golf. You have so many NFL players, though, 159 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: who love the sport and they want to play. Matt 160 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: Shop played Augusta. He told me that I know a 161 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: number of guys have been able to get on, so 162 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: good for them. Anyway, let's talk some football here, and 163 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: we were talking football broadcasting a little bit yesterday. John 164 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: one note that popped out to me, and I don't 165 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: have the exact number in front of me, but the 166 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: dominance of the NFL on television over. Since we're on 167 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: this subject. Basically we started the show like this, Yeah, 168 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: the dominance of the NFL over everything else on television, 169 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: not just sports, everything else has never been greater. People 170 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: talk about all the ratings are going down, and the 171 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: media loves a narrative like this, and I get it. Look, 172 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm in the media. I understand, you know, what sales 173 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: and what gets clicks. But the fact that the NFL 174 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: ratings are down a little bit from where they were 175 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, that's a fact. I mean, 176 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: that's that's true. But if you go back the last 177 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: ten years, the gap between what the NFL gets and 178 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: what all primetime programming gets and what the rest of 179 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: sports get has never been greater. Ten years ago, it 180 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: was a lot closer between primetime television and NFL and 181 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: the other sports, and NFL is a lot closer now. 182 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: It is so far apart. In other words, the hits 183 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: that everything else has taken in the last decade so 184 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: voluminous compared to what the NFL has taken in the 185 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 1: last couple of years. And you know, we talked about 186 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: the twenty sixteen season was a Trump was it? This? 187 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: Was it? That? And then last year was at the 188 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: Kneeling whatever it was. Yeah, they're down a little bit, 189 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: and also chord cutting and the rest of JEWS viewership 190 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: being affected. But primetime TV network television as we know 191 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: it so affected by all of this stuff, mostly chord cutting, 192 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: I think, and the incredible volume of choices out there 193 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: in the entertainment world. The live programming of the National 194 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 1: Football League. The TV executives love it. We were at 195 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: the NFL meetings. Sean McManus of CBS Sports was there also, 196 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: the head of Fox Sports Television. They were talking about 197 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: how valuable it is. They built Fox on the National 198 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: Football League, that's why they went all that. On the 199 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: Thursday I packaged CBS. McManus joked he was saying all 200 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: these great things about the NFL on television. He said, 201 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: I guess this makes me the worst negotiator ever. But 202 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: it's a fact. This is the most valuable programming we have. Yeah, 203 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any question. And one thing you 204 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: said that I find I find fascinating. I used to 205 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: think about this about, you know, football in Los Angeles. 206 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: Whenever this topic would come up. It's like, you know, 207 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: in LA you got so much. I mean, you got Hollywood, 208 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: you got people that want to shop on Rodeo Drive, 209 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: you know, go to the beach. There's so much competition 210 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: for the entertainment dollar, and it sort of feels like 211 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: that's kind of where the TV landscape is. There's so 212 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: much more out there. If you don't like what the 213 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: game is, you can flip over and watch on your phone. 214 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: Even you can watch an episode of something without commercials 215 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 1: if you want, which my son consistently tells me about commercials, 216 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yo, listen, you have a house. Because 217 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: there are people that want to pay advertising with the 218 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: use of textans. I said so, and so he understands that. 219 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: But there's so many challenges for your your TV dollar, 220 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: if you will, nowadays, more so than there have ever been. 221 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: But to me, the NFL, you know, we talked about 222 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: reality shows. It's a joke because you know it's reality 223 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: and air quotes. The NFL's the best reality show there is. 224 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: With out of doubt, there's no question. You have no 225 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: idea what's going to happen. You have such acts. I mean, 226 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: think about a Sunday night game and I think about 227 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: this mark because you know, I'm in the sidelines and 228 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: so I see those guys with those big, huge cameras 229 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: and they they're all strapped in like they're in an 230 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: amusement park ride. And then you've got this long pole 231 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: on the end of the poll. They've got these cameras 232 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: and they're running out to the huddle to start the game, 233 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: and they're literally like in the huddle and they're filming 234 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: guys and they're running out with the Shawn Watson and 235 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: I think you've gotten so close to these players. With 236 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: all the different cameras and all the different things that 237 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: you have, you get to see everything about the game. 238 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: And then you have, you know, a guy like Chris 239 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: Collinsworth or in some it used to be John Gruden, 240 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: just somebody teaching you the game. They're showing you with 241 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: video and they're like, oh, you know, I can learn 242 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: something from that. And then you've got the the fantasy 243 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: football aspect to it as well. But to me, it's 244 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: just the best reality show there is weekend and week out. 245 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: And these guys are their celebrities, even with helmets on. 246 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: And that used to be one of the things, well, 247 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: how do I know who they are if they're on 248 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: their helmets on? Well, with their helmets on with them off, 249 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. These guys have become stars. Odell Beckham 250 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: Junior makes the one hand catch on the biggest stage 251 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: there is. He's become a bona fide star throughout the 252 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: league from that. Now, he's a great player, don't get 253 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: me wrong, But that that catch kicked it off. And 254 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: I just feel like with the reality aspect of it, 255 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: that you never know what's gonna happen on that particular day. 256 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: That makes it must watch televis. If I'm watching a 257 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: college game, sometimes I know, okay, look, this team is 258 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: ranked fifteenth, this team is ranked seventh. I know what's 259 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: gonna happen here that fifteenth they haven't played anybody. I 260 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen here. And so sometimes college games 261 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: but half feel like AD's done. NFL game. Nothing's gonna 262 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: be tight pretty much all the way throughout all for 263 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: the most part, unless the Texans are playing the Titans 264 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: at home in fifty seven fourteen, that can happen. But 265 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna see a pretty close game, which people are 266 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna want to watch for the most part, 267 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: and if they connect with a fantasy player or you know, 268 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: think think about this. The state of South Carolina. They 269 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: had the Panthers, right, the Panthers are their team so 270 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: to speak, because it's called the Carolina Panthers, but it's 271 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: in Charlotte. Yeah, well now the team. The people in 272 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: South Carolina want to see what the Texans are doing 273 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: every single week because they're their guy. To Shawn Watson 274 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: and they're watching Charlotte. It was incredible. It's unbelievable and 275 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: and that'll happen a lot of times in the South 276 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: and a lot of folks I know this. I know this. 277 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: Johnny was making a point about the carolineas Yeah, Carolina 278 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: has both of them, even in the game they played Charlotte. 279 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: But the point being, there's so many you want to 280 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: tune in to see what your guy is doing, your 281 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: players doing. Maybe you're not concerned about the team, but hey, 282 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: what's my guy doing? And so you're gonna turn on, 283 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna see what happens. You want to see something 284 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: that you're you're never you maybe never have seen before. 285 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: I think that every Sunday in the NFL, I've said 286 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: this before, feels like Thursday Friday the NCAA tournament. Every 287 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: Sunday feels like that. And I've lived through them both. 288 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: I've covered them both, I've done play by play for 289 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: both the first two days of the tournament. I really 290 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: think of the best days of the tournaments total days, 291 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: without a doubt. But every Sunday in the NFL is 292 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: like that. What's going on today? What's going on with 293 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: those guys? What's going on with those guys who survived? 294 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: Who didn't? And it survived in advanced Now you're gonna 295 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 1: You're not eliminated for the season with a loss on Sunday, 296 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: But it feels that devastating. And I was talking to 297 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 1: a PR exec who used to be with an NBA 298 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: team and is working in the NFL. They said that 299 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: when you win an NBA playoff series, that's pretty much 300 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: the equivalent of an NFL Sunday. Yeah, I mean a 301 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: playoff series. It takes up playoffs, not the I'm not 302 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: digging in on the NBA because I really enjoy the NBA. 303 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: I love watching NBA basketball. I love the Rockets. But 304 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: the point is this, it's so meaningful every week, and 305 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: that's why it's so valuable. All Right, we don't mean 306 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: to get off on that tangent. TV tangent, but it's 307 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: fun to talk about, you know what else, it's fun 308 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: to talk about quarterbacks, and the Texans have a new one, 309 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: but not really, and we'll talk about Brandon Whedon and 310 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: John McClain disagrees with me on what else the plan 311 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: might be in this category we'll discuss on Texans Radio. 312 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: Continuing with the program Texans All Access here from the 313 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: hunday Texans Radio studio, Mark Fanti, Aaron, John Harris with you. 314 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: And I'm driving that Genesis, by the way, which is 315 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: its own brand now, but it is Hyundai and it's 316 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: a wonderful vehicle. That's all I have to say about that. 317 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: People actually ask me if it's a Bentley or some 318 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: kind of European car or whatever. It's a beautiful vehicle. 319 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: So check it out. Ron Carter all the great Houston 320 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: area Huntday Dealers. All right, Johnny, let's do this now. Wait, 321 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: we were talking about the NFL. We're talking about TV 322 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: power and we'll get to the quarterback thing at just 323 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: a moment. But you brought something up during the break 324 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: about the calendar, and it's, you know, stuff people know. 325 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: But when you point out the chronology of everything in 326 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: an NFL year. It's very interesting because it never dies 327 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: this way. The conversation never never drops. Yeah, there's there's 328 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: always something because if you think about obviously the season, 329 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: season starts training camp. For some it starts probably late July. 330 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: I mean last year we started with late July, and 331 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: so you go all the way through the season. Then 332 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: you got the you got the Senior Bowl, it's I love. 333 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: But then you've got the championship games in the Super 334 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: Bowl right there at the beginning of February, and then 335 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: you've got in late February, you've got the Combine. And 336 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: then in the middle of March, you've got the free 337 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: agency period, which this year, I mean, obviously we were 338 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: invested in it because we had money and we ended 339 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: up bringing player. Everybody is, but everybody's doing that for 340 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: the most part. And then in the middle of April, 341 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: you're like, well, let's going on the middle April, the 342 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: schedule gets released and everybody starts planning out, oh, when 343 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: they're going to game. The traveling Texas look at which 344 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 1: games they're gonna go to. We know who we're playing, 345 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: and we know where we're going, we don't know when, 346 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: and that ends up being key because what are the 347 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: prime time games? When are the Texas is gonna be 348 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: in prime time? And so you have that to look 349 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: forward to. And then three weeks later, at the end 350 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: of April, beginning of May, you've got the draft, which 351 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: has become massive, and then oh, I don't know about 352 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: a week week and a half later, you've got rookie 353 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: Binnie camps and then Ota starting. That takes you all 354 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: the way to the beginning of July. So really, really 355 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: the only period where there's not anything truly going on 356 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: are the three weeks in July. But that's the build 357 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: up to the season at that point, so you got 358 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: plenty to talk about. It's like they've spaced it out, 359 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: like the things they have going on have become musty 360 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: events at those times of the year. I know, I'm 361 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: more invested than seeing the schedule, because where are we 362 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: gonna go, where our trips, what are they gonna happen? 363 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: All that kind of stuff. But even if everybody is 364 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: for different reasons, everybody wants to know when are they playing. Okay, 365 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: let's go through the schedule. Oh man, they got these 366 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: three back to back to back road game. How's that 367 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: going to play out? Oh? They're going to this trip, 368 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: but they're playing this game on a Thursday night that 369 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: carries us for two weeks. And oh, by the way, 370 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: all the draft is, you know, five days from then. 371 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: So it's the way it's spread out. There's always something 372 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: going on with the NFL to put it right there 373 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: in front of the public, of the sports public, of 374 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: the adoring public, to say, Okay, what's going on. Yeah, 375 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: it's opening week in baseball, and it's great to see 376 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: what Giancarlos Stanton's doing. But who really cares about the 377 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: Yankees who the Astros are doing? But the NFL just 378 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: stays relevant even when it's not playing games, and not 379 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: to me is incredible. I think baseball opening day has 380 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: really lost its luster. You know, the Astros opening yesterday, congratulations, fantastic. 381 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you won the World Series. But I think 382 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: it kind of got lost in the mix here. And 383 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: I blame Basketball for at one point going later with 384 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: the Championship. I just where they used to do it 385 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: a week earlier, and they moved it later the championship game. Yeah, 386 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: remember when the Championship game overlap with the opening day 387 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: of Major League Baseball? Remember, And it was kind of weird. 388 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: I remember nineteen eighty eight because nineteen eighty eight was 389 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: in Kansas City and Kansas is playing in Oklahoma, Danny 390 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: Manning and the Miracles taking on Oklahoma. Earlier that day, 391 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: George Bell hit three home runs in Kansas City for 392 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: the rule for the for the Blue Jays, he hit 393 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: three home runs that day, and then that night Kansas 394 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: played Oklahoma, and I just remember thinking, Wow, I must 395 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: have been a crazy day if you were in media, 396 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: and that was one of the days I thought about. 397 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: I was like, man, if you're in the media, you 398 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: get to go to these things, and you could have 399 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: done all that in the same That's pretty cool. But 400 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: that was exactly what happened on that day and the 401 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: championship game day back in eighty eight. But that's when 402 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: it really started kind of crossing over. I would love 403 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: it if you didn't have all this overlapping sports, but 404 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: you do. There's nothing, you know, nothing else you can 405 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: do about it. And I understand why baseball is doing 406 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: what they're doing. They're trying to get a little bit 407 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: of an early start now because they're trying to squeeze 408 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 1: the games in and then a wildcard game and all 409 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: of that and good luck to the Astros. By the way, 410 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: fantastic get ready for twenty eighteen. All right, this we mentioned. 411 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: One of the big things in the NFL calendar is 412 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: free agency. Obviously, the Texans had their first wave. In 413 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: the second wave, Brandon Whedon signs resigns with the team. Really, 414 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: as they did not get him on the fifty three 415 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: last year, he ends up as a Tennessee Titan. Had 416 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: he been on his couch, he would have been at 417 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: Houston Texan again, because we all remember the quarterback issues 418 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 1: they had last year once Watson got hurt. So it's 419 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 1: too bad that they couldn't get him last year, but 420 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: they have him this year. So Whedon is your backup 421 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: and I'll sign off on this. I mean, when I 422 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: looked at the list and seton, Mike were asking me 423 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: about it this morning. When I looked at the list 424 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: going in, was there anybody now potentially, you know, Sanchez 425 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: could flare up and have a tremendous runch for you, 426 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: potentially if you had to play a guy like that, 427 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: or maybe one of these other players, I don't know, 428 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: Matt Moore or whatever. By the way, Brian gained great 429 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: familiarity with Matt Moore from the Miami days. But to me, 430 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: I think this is a real solid bet as far 431 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: as backups go. Brandon Whedon, he's been here, he quote 432 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: knows the system, and he's won for you before. So 433 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: I'm okay with Brandon weedon being the backup. Blood. I 434 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: have to say this, Johnny, I said to McLean last night. 435 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: I said, yeah, I think they're gonna draft one. I 436 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: don't think they're done yet. He said, really, what do 437 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: you think? You know? So he thought that they might 438 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: be done with Heineke and Whedon behind Watson. I don't 439 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: think so. I think there's a quarterback coming here in 440 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 1: the draft or some other way, maybe undrafted free agent, 441 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: and that guy's not gonna be a world beater, or 442 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: at least on paper projected to be one. But maybe 443 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: he's a project. Maybe he's somebody they want to develop. Well, again, 444 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: go back to what we talked about at at Senior Rowle. 445 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: They had opportunity to work with four quarterbacks on the 446 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: South team, and those guys are all projected to be 447 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: probably no better than no better than late fifth round, 448 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: and that's stretching in a little bit. Sixth round. You're 449 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: talking about six or seventh round, so they spend one 450 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: on one of those guys who comes to rookie mini camp. 451 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 1: And look, but what harm does it do to have, 452 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, a fourth arm here? There are a number 453 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: of things to consider here with this weed thing. And 454 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: I know we've gotten tweets about it, and let me 455 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: be let me be be very clear about this, this part 456 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: of it about Colin Kaepernick, because we got to do 457 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: this would talk a little bit because people have asked, oh, 458 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: look if they're signing we look, Kaepernick believes himself to 459 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: be a starter. It takes two to tango in this league, 460 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: right It takes the team to take the piece of 461 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: paper and say we want you, and it takes the 462 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: player with the pen in hand to say okay and sign. 463 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick wouldn't want to sign with the Houston Texans 464 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: in the situation that is here right now. Why would he? 465 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: He believes he's a starting quarterback, right he thinks he's 466 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback. Why would he come here when he 467 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: knows he is not going to be so No, I 468 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: can't speak for other teams. I don't, but I just don't. 469 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick believes he's a starter. He had opportunities to 470 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 1: be a back. He had two, maybe even three opportunities 471 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: to sign with teams as a backup quarterback, and he 472 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: didn't sign one of them. Why because he thinks he's 473 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback. And that's that's his prerogative to think 474 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: that way. Now, if something happened to Dashawn and it 475 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: opened up that opportunity or a competition, would at that 476 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: point he considered with the text consider it. Look that 477 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 1: those are I think those net need to be Those 478 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: questions are moot because first of all, you signed Brandon Wheedon. 479 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: But second of all, Kaepernick is not in the current 480 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: configuration the quarterback roster. He doesn't want to be here 481 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: for that. He wants to go someplace where he can 482 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: start and be the man. Whether he is or isn't, 483 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: that's what he wants. So why would you want to 484 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: sign somebody that or why would that guy want to 485 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: sign here when he knows he's not gonna be And 486 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: why would you want to sign that guy knowing that? Well, 487 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's my that's my two cents on 488 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: that whole situation. It's also gotten to the point where 489 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that you can sign Look, anybody who 490 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: signed Kaepernick, there's gonna be a media circus to start 491 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: things out, obviously. Sure, the question is does the circus 492 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: stay in town? Right? Does the media stick around to 493 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 1: see what happens? And you don't want all that, you 494 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,959 Speaker 1: don't You don't want those being the questions about your 495 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: football team if you can help it, you know. So, 496 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how that would figure into it or not, 497 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: but I would think that that would come up in 498 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: the conversation. I would think if you're going to sign him, 499 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: but Weedon is the guy, and Brandon Weedon, look, I 500 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: think he can run a little bit. Not he's not 501 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: a running quarterback. Okay, he doesn't have great rushing yards 502 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: in his history on his stat sheet. He did run 503 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: for a touchdowns Tennessee against the Tennessee Titans. I think 504 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: he can move though. I think he can move around. 505 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: I think he can run more Watson like stuff than 506 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: people realize. With Brandon Weedon, if you have to now, 507 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: I do want to see, like I said, another developmental guy. 508 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: Maybe that's Heinecke. I don't know they I think they 509 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: like Heinecke. They must because they have him here. He's 510 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: still on the roster, but maybe somebody else is coming, 511 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: Maybe they have something else up there sleeve. I mean, 512 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: the whole thing is you gotta keep Watson healthy. We 513 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: all understand that. But you better have some insurance because 514 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: you had to cash in on that insurance last year 515 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to re up this year. Yeah, 516 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: there's no question. And here's one thing that I have 517 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: thought about, especially because people have asked this about Deshan, 518 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: is Deshan's gonna come back? Because you're gonna come back 519 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: for OTIS and you're gonna have him back for ots, 520 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do during OTAs is? Is that 521 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: a time when he can come back? And you were 522 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: at the owner's meetings you heard Bill talk about it. Yeah, 523 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: there might be some things he can do. He talked 524 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: about how total access with Lindsay Rhodes. There might be 525 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: some things he can do, but a lot of the 526 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: team stuff they're not gonna have him do. And I 527 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 1: and I don't if even if we're one hundred percent, 528 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: I don't know that I have him to do a 529 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: lot of team stuff. Somebody coming in in trips and 530 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: why make me nervous? But if that's the case, Yeah, 531 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 1: how are you going to get anything done during OTA's 532 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: with somebody that's new to this building and you have, 533 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: but I don't know, three weeks to get them even 534 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: up to speed before you go out for an OTA practice. 535 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up because Bill O'Brien saying 536 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: they're gonna redesign the offense. I think they're not gonna 537 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,959 Speaker 1: completely junk what they were doing. They're gonna add some stuff, 538 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: but you have to know the foundation here. Yeah, there's 539 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: no question if Weeden's gonna get all those first team reps. 540 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, though, I still think that you could 541 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: bring in somebody new. Maybe maybe it's Heinekey again, maybe 542 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: Heineke is gonna get a lot of reps. But he's 543 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: at least been in this building. He had the playbook, 544 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: he heard the terminology, he heard those things. As opposed 545 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: to a guy coming in completely clean off the streets 546 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: going coach. I don't even know how you call your 547 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: plays man. You start with this on the left versus 548 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: this on the right, and how you go about it, 549 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: it's completely different. You would get you would get nothing 550 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: done of an effective nature during OTAs. And if you 551 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: say whoa who cares about OTAs. Every team cares about 552 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: OTAs because it's practice without pads. Yeah, it's a nassing 553 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: camp and you put in your offense during OTAs. Yeah, 554 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 1: they'll still be installing some stuff during training camp. But 555 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: we've been over this because remember the old days, you know, 556 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: remember the Oilers. You know John McClain talk about the 557 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: Oilers having six weeks of training camp and six preseason 558 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: games or whatever it was. You know, they get to 559 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: San Angelo in late June getting ready for the season. 560 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: They can't do that anymore with the way the Union 561 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: and the CBA is. So what they're doing right now 562 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: is they put in a lot of stuff during OTA's 563 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: that way, two weeks to go before the first preseason game. 564 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: That's when you arrive at training camp. You get two 565 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: weeks to get ready for that first preseason game. And 566 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: once you're in the preseason games, practice is very different. 567 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: You can't really go two days and go hard anymore 568 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: in the same way you were, So you better have 569 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: everything in by the time you get to camp, virtually everything. 570 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: The Foundation's got to be there. Yeah, there's no question. 571 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: I know. People say, well then what about the shaw Le. 572 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: Look they last year Once they realized that Sean was 573 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: the guy they were putting in little they were putting 574 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: in bits and pieces along the way they were. Billieven 575 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: said it. He sat here one day and said, look, 576 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 1: I stayed up one night and watched every single play 577 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 1: of RG three's rookie year to see what they were doing. 578 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: I watched Clemson film. I stay up here and I'd 579 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: watch that to try and find pieces that they were 580 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,199 Speaker 1: gonna end up being comfortable with. So there are some 581 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: things that you can add, but as far as as 582 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: far as do And here's the other thing too, I 583 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: don't know how much. And this I'm curious about because 584 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't know how this will be. But you know, 585 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna have enjoy practices. Yeah, you know, whether it's 586 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: one team, two teams, whomever. But how much of this 587 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: quote unquote new offense are they gonna end up showing 588 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: the people during preseason games, during much during joint practices? 589 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: So how much of that are they gonna see her 590 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden? Is it gonna be week one 591 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 1: when we're on the road at Jacksonville. That's my that's 592 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: my prediction. That's my prediction. Is week one, we're at 593 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: Jackson at Jacksonville to open the season. Because we've been 594 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: at we haven't been on the road, not since I 595 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: not since I've been doing sidelines. Thirteen was last year. 596 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: That was in San Diego. We haven't been on the 597 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: road on the opening day. I think we're going to 598 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: Jacksonville week one. I would love to send me to Jacksonville. 599 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: Send me. That's true, you know what, You'll be used 600 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: to it because you're at the Greenbriar. No, I don't know. 601 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: Is this where it hurts you? Hey, it was hot 602 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: in New England last year at that game. Oh, I remember. 603 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: I remember going out for that game, and you know, 604 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: usually I were, you know, my my pull over and 605 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: short shirt, tie pullover and doesn't matter how hot it is. 606 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: And I looked at the coaches and they were kind 607 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: of their pullovers. They came out of locker room before 608 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: the game started. Well, Bee was in a T shirt. 609 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: I had taken my pullover off. I was sweating. It was. 610 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: It was hot that day, really hot, and I could 611 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: see it on both teams. Stefan Gilmore one out of 612 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 1: the game because he was dealing with They could have 613 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: the hydration or cram. They put it up on the 614 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: board there Stefan Gilmore dehydration up on the up on 615 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: the injury board. I remember telling you that, and you're like, 616 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: he was just a buffalo. Yeah, I guess because I 617 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: remember you saying they told you that was like, no, 618 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: I saw it up on the board, so they Yeah. 619 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: But that's my prediction. Jackson A Week one. That's I 620 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: liked that. I would love to be at any divisional 621 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: opponent week when I just rip off the band aid, 622 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: get one of those road games out of the way, 623 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: don't play three on the road like this week one. 624 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: I I've been begging for it for years at Indie 625 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: Week one. All right, coming up on the show a 626 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: little bit more on this stuff. Houston Texans preseason schedule 627 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: will be out I think within a week and a half. 628 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: How about that, within a week and a half, we'll 629 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: know where they're going in the preseason. That's gonna shape 630 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: a lot of the camp scheduling as well, and we'll 631 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: go around the league as well. Could the Texans be 632 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: in the market for a player who's rumored to be 633 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: on the trading block. We'll talk about that among other 634 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: things on Texans All Access. So much to cover running 635 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: out of time. Let's get to it here Texans All 636 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: Access from the Honday Texans Radio Studio at NRG Stadium. 637 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: Mark Vandermer and John Harris with you. And so during 638 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: the break we figured out that there's a Beyonce concert 639 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: Week two of the NFL regular season here at NRG Stadium, 640 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: September fifteenth, and that's a Saturday night. But you can't 641 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,959 Speaker 1: play a Sunday game after that. So I'm thinking that 642 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: that eliminates the Week one road possibility. I don't think 643 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: you'll open on the road and be on the road 644 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: week two because they have to be on the road 645 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,719 Speaker 1: week two. So therefore they'll open at home again for 646 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: the what fifth consecutive year. Yeah, she's here in Houston 647 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:59,719 Speaker 1: fifteenth showing fifteenth and sixteenth. Yeah, but yeah, you're right, 648 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: that's week two. That would be eight of the last 649 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: nine seasons they've opened at home because oh eight they 650 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: were on the road at Pittsburgh. Then they went nine, ten, 651 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: eleven at home, twelve, No, twelve at home as well, 652 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: then thirteen on the road at San Diego, then the 653 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: rest at home. Wow, Okay, the last ten so we 654 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: know the uh, yeah, we know the opponents at home right, ye, 655 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: three six? So who So we're matched up with the AFC, 656 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: So that's Buffalo. You're asking, who's it gonna be? Yeah, 657 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: who's it gonna be in Miami? So here are the 658 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 1: eight teams India, Tennessee, Jacksonville, Dallas, Giants, Cleveland, Buffalo, Miami. 659 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: Those the eight home games. Who's gonna be the opener? 660 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: Let's go. The question that networks are gonna want to 661 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 1: know is the health of Watson. So will they be 662 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: reluctant to put Watson on national television week one if 663 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: they're not positive he'll be available? I think that Week 664 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: one the week one the last couple of couple of 665 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: years has been Giants, Cowboys, but the Eagles. But the 666 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 1: Eagles are gonna have to play Thursday night, the Thursday 667 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: Night Eagles play Thursday Night. My guess is that the 668 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: Sunday night game would then flip over. How many prime 669 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: Let's just start with the prime time games? Four or five? 670 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: I think they want to say five, but I think 671 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna have say four, and look if they end 672 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: up flexing one late in the season. Five Yeah, I 673 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: think Dallas at home. I think Philly on the road. 674 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: Those two for sure I think yeah, but Philly, New England. 675 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: But Philly, it's picked your game here because they did 676 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: with the Super Bowl. They play in the NFC. No, 677 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying we're gonna play the opening game. I'm 678 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: just saying you're just saying primetime yeah, prime time yeah yeah. 679 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: But if i'm the networks, which is more attractive Philly, 680 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: Houston or Philly Jacksonville? I don't know. I probably Houston. 681 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: It's a bigger marketing everything. It's went Watson. It's Watson. 682 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: He's way more try. It's what you want to be 683 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: key boardles on Sunday Night. No, no, do not. Jacksonville, 684 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: Poor jackson Poor Jacksonville. Did I just say that you did? 685 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: Slap me? Just slap mate, because Jacksonville has no juice 686 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: and they just went to the AFC Championship game. How 687 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: many prime time games will Jacksonville get? There's no way 688 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: that's a better prediction. There's no way they get five. 689 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: They'll get three or four because it's still Jacksonville, and 690 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: no one's gonna want to put them on Nationville television 691 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: if you have to late in the season, because you 692 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: have to flex them, great, and that would mean they're 693 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: doing well, so you'll be happy to do it. Yeah, 694 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:31,239 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Pittsburgh game, because Jacksonville gets Pittsburgh and they 695 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: would already have New England because we're playing AFC, so 696 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: they have Pittsburgh and Kansas City. One of those games 697 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: might maybe maybe one of our games with Jacksonville might 698 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: be on there. If this offense, then that might be 699 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: when it gets flex. But I wouldn't be surprised they 700 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: put a later, a later season game. I could see 701 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: us in Jacksonville being a Thursday nighter. I could see that. 702 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 1: I could absolutely see that. I wouldn't mind going there 703 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: on a Thursday night. Although we've done it before. It 704 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: was not a very good time because we got fired 705 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: the day after and two Spoons was getting fifteen year 706 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: old penalties for talking trash. But that's a different straight 707 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: out I think. I think Dallas, Philly, New England, and 708 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: one other maybe it's against maybe it's against Indie and 709 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: Luck because they give these teams they automatically get all 710 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: these primetime games like New England. Yeah, I know, but 711 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: I think it's amplified with having Watson in this offense 712 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: as constructive and then if the defense is healthier, talking 713 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 1: about Watton Clowney and Merciless and Tyrann Matthew. I would 714 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: think that. I would think if I'm sitting in New York, 715 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: and of course I'm biased, but if I'm sitting there 716 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: looking at the teams that I could have on Prime 717 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: time this year, I want the Rams yeah, and I 718 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: want the Texans yeah, And obviously I want New England, 719 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: I want Philly and I always want Dallas. Those are 720 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: the teams that I want to have on prime time. 721 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: And if they're playing I killed two Birds with one stone, boom, 722 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: here we go San Francisco. Oh yep, Garoppolo, Absolutely no doubt. 723 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 1: Vikings with Cousins, Yeah, you want to see, especially early, 724 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do Cousins. There's a rumor because Cousins 725 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: and the Vikings go to Philly and the first game 726 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 1: that could be the opener? Should that should be opener? Should? 727 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: But Philly's gonna be on. It's just a question of 728 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: who plays quarterback for Philly at that point. Is Wentz 729 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: ready to go, because we remember Wentz towards ACL about 730 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: six weeks after DeShawn did YEA, so that he'll be 731 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: good to go, I would think he is. I think 732 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: he would be. But that's that's something to consider. But 733 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: this Cousins thing has the potential to fail spectacularly. Oh 734 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: there's no question. And I'm not saying it's going to 735 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 1: for sure, but I think that everyone is gonna when 736 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: they see Cousins in prime time. And I know the 737 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: Redskins got some pub from Cousins, but he's not that great. 738 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: He's he's solid, he's not that great. Rams Raiders, you know, 739 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:57,439 Speaker 1: didn't want to see Gruden and if the Raiders get yeah, 740 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: they'll definitely beyond for sure. Steelers are always gonna five. 741 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: They're always gonna get five. I always get five. They're 742 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: always gonna get five because it's the Steelers. They've got 743 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: fans everywhere they live any but they get they get some. 744 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 1: You're not kidding. We've yes, I saw that, and it's 745 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 1: not like we're in South Florida, but it's like, let's 746 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: take a vacation. That was Christmas Day. We usually helps 747 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers though, is you have the Ravens, it's always 748 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: you get a Steelers Ravens. One of those. You don't 749 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: have that. The Ravens are not of that caliber. I 750 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: don't think so. So you're gonna have to know what 751 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna do. Place. You're gonna replace Baltimore with Jacksonville. 752 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a prime time Jacksonville Pittsburgh. 753 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: They play each other again. They have to because they 754 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: first place. Yes, see, Jacksonville gets Pittsburgh and Ksey, whereas 755 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: we get Cleveland and Denver. I'll take it, thank you, 756 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: no kidding, no kidding, absolute Denver with case Keenum. Bronco's 757 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 1: gonna draft a quarterback, yes or no? I think they will. 758 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: I think they will. I mean at number five, they're 759 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: still I think gonna have some options. The question becomes 760 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: if they fall in love with three guys and those 761 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 1: three guys are gone, then maybe they trade out of 762 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: there and maybe Buffalo moves up to get the fourth guy. 763 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: Whoever the fourth guy might be on the list at 764 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 1: that point, but if something happens, Look, if the Giants 765 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,720 Speaker 1: end up taking Barkley at two or even Quittin Nelson 766 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: at two and don't trade out of that spot, you're 767 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: gonna have two quarterbacks off the board by the time 768 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: that they draft, because the Browns aren't presumably gonna take 769 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: one at four, So now you've got only two off 770 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: the boards. You've got a choice of the three top 771 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 1: five guys, and maybe you like one of those guys 772 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: and you take him. I listen, I love case of all. 773 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: I've said that many many times, but I just think 774 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: if you look at the contract he signed, and you 775 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 1: think about the quarterbacks that are in this draft, and 776 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: here's the other thing. You gotta think about the quarterbacks 777 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: in next year's draft. The quarterbacks in next year's draft. 778 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: If you're looking for a face of the franchise quarterback, 779 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 1: you need one, you better get it now because next 780 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: year's crop is not that it's not as good as 781 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: this one, not even close. So if you want to 782 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 1: get a guy now, Drew Locke from Missouri might end 783 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: up being a first rounder. And that's one guy. After that, 784 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 1: you're talking about guys that are probably date late day 785 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: two at best guys. So you better get your quarterback now. 786 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: And if people are in John Elway's ear saying, hey, look, 787 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: don't wait another year. If you got an opportunity to 788 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: get him, and that's if the Giants are the key 789 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: to me, Because the Giants end up taking a quarterback, 790 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you've got three off the board. 791 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: With really only two left. And I don't know how 792 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: the Broncs are gonna feel about Lamar Jackson. I love him, 793 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: I would take him, but that's a different story. I 794 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: find all the quarterback draft stuff fascinating. It is, but 795 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: it controls everything. I think how the rest of the 796 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: draft is gonna go at the top five picks. How 797 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: did you feel about last year's class heading into the draft? 798 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: I felt like the I was not a big Trubisky guy, 799 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: so to me, they're really two guys worth drafting Mahomes 800 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: and Watson. It was Mahomes, Watson, and then Trubisky later 801 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: and then everybody else. Right, That really was what Bariss 802 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: moved up a spot and gave up a lot to 803 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: do it to get to make sure they got him, 804 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: and you know, so be it. I mean, they believe 805 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: in it, and I believe in the philosophy you gotta 806 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: find to face the franchise guy. I'm just glad they did. 807 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: They went and got Trubisky. I would have felt I 808 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: would have felt great with Mahomes or Watson. I like both. 809 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 1: I liked Watson better than all of them. That Watson 810 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: was my number one. And you can look at last 811 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: year's Harrison one hundred. To figure that out, I had 812 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: Watson above everybody else, but I would have gone Watson, Mahomes, 813 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: and then down the list Trubisky. That's the way I 814 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: would have gone with it. But but there was really 815 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: nothing after that. And this year's group, you've got the 816 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,399 Speaker 1: top five, then you got Mason Rudolph, and then there's 817 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: this big gap. But then you kind of have this 818 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: glut of late round five through Round seven guys, like 819 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: this huge glut of senior quarterbacks. I don't even know 820 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 1: what you'll have that next year. Now, when you were 821 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: looking at the twenty fourteen class coming out of college, yea, 822 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: with Bridgewater and Bortles and all those guys, how did 823 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: you feel about that? I felt that was a pretty 824 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: good class. I thought it was pretty diverse. I thought 825 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: one of the keys that class was gonna end up 826 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 1: being Derek Carr, because I felt if Derek did well, 827 00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: then the class would do. I thought the class had 828 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 1: pretty well, right, I didn't. I mean, there was always 829 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: a chance of Johnny imploding, but I didn't think he 830 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: would go off the rails the way that he did. 831 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm glad to see that he's kind of gotten it 832 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 1: back together sort of like my my analogy has been 833 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: like Britney Spears. Did you think about Britney Spears kind 834 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 1: of career arc? You know, maybe Johnny's following that, which 835 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 1: would be kind of nice for him, but that was assumed. 836 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: Brittany did everything in college, not in the pros. Yeah, true. 837 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: I guess, Well, you could take the analogy wherever you want. 838 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 1: I had a great explanation for it the other day. 839 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,000 Speaker 1: But you know, Johnny going off the rails and then look, 840 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: you can't with Teddy Bridgeway. Are you You didn't know 841 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna wrench his knee? You know, It's true, like 842 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: when you look at that class, Blake Bortles just went 843 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: to an AFC championship game, but no one's here to 844 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 1: annoint him. Yeah he's Yeah. I thought it was a 845 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: good quarterback class. But Garoppolo, Yeah, Garoppolo was in it. 846 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: And then I felt like Derek Carr was gonna end 847 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: up being the key because I felt like if he 848 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: was good, I felt like Bartles would be good. Anythink 849 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: he'd be great, but I think it good. I thought 850 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: Johnny had an opport to be the Johnny we know 851 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: or boy it was gonna go horribly bad, and they 852 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: went horribly bad. Bridgewater I thought was gonna be was 853 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: like in the Borders class. I thought he was gonna 854 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: be good. Is gonna be great. Teddy has a chance 855 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: to win that job in New York and hold on 856 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: to it as long as he's healthy. As long as 857 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: he's healthy, and that was one of the things Mike 858 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,399 Speaker 1: Zimmer talked about this last week at the owner's meetings. 859 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: He talked about there were some things that they felt 860 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: like his knee was not where they wanted it to be. 861 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 1: Even though he was back doing things, they felt like 862 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: he was not where they want him to be. It's 863 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: kind of scary because he was never like this burner runner. 864 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: No heah, he was. He was a definite sit in 865 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: the pocket kind of guy. He could create and he 866 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: made some throws, but he was you know, when he 867 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 1: basically was Kirk Cousins, he would have been at that level. 868 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 1: They wouldn't have to think all that money to Kirk Cousins. 869 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: I think Teddy would have gotten him to about the 870 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: same level the case did. But I think you would 871 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 1: see Teddy getting better and better by the year, young quarterback, 872 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: growing with the weapons I think that would have been 873 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 1: a better situation for them. But I mean, you see 874 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 1: that comment. But look, Garoppolo, if Derek Carr gets back 875 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: on the horse, you feel pretty good about twenty fourteen. 876 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: It's just that the top guys didn't turn out the 877 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 1: way that you want him to. Whether it was Johnny 878 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: or whether it was Bridgewater and Bortles is pretty much 879 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: what he is. He's been, he's been up and down. 880 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: He said some great. I mean I think of twenty 881 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: fifteen he was great. Twenty fifteen. Yeah, but a lot 882 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: of numbers wise, yeah, numbers wise, because a lot of 883 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 1: it was like after the game, that's over type stuff. Okay, Johnny, 884 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 1: thanks a lot for joining us always.
