00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: a Friday edition of Texans All Access from Monday Texans

14
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 1: Radio Studio. I am your host, John Harris, Football Anos

15
00:00:51,920 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: Sideline reporter, getting geeked up for my fourteenth Colts Texans game.

16
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: I think that's right. Fourteen fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen nineteen.

17
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: That's twelve playoff game thirteen. Yeah, fourteen. Man, Colts Week

18
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: is something different, man, it just is. But listen to

19
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: my guys on six ten all week Landry and John

20
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: Shawn Seth's show and Clant and just thinking about the Colts.

21
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: It's just it's just different. Man. We're less than forty

22
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: eight hours away from that matchup, so we're definitely going

23
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: to dive into that folks show. On the show tonight,

24
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: we'll have my Keys first Community Credit Union First Class

25
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: Keys is a game later in the show. Of course,

26
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: we'll also have my predictions. And I think, if I'm correct,

27
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: Week thirteen, which this is, goes all the way to Tuesday,

28
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: because I think that's Ravens Cowboys, because I got moved

29
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: because of the whole raven situation. The Ravens are supposed

30
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: to play Thanksgiving night, got moved all the way to

31
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: Wednesday to take on the Steelers. And I know it

32
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: wasn't a fantastic game, but the fact that the Ravens

33
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: even had that thing within five at the end of

34
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: the game, within a third down stop and getting the

35
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: ball back to have a chance to win in that

36
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: game is very commendable. It's incredible when you think about it.

37
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: But because they got pushed to Wednesday, the Steelers play

38
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: the Washington football team that got moved, I think the Monday,

39
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: and then the Ravens take on the Cowboys. Got moved

40
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: to Tuesday, so Week thirteen will go actually will start

41
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: on Sunday because there's no Thursday game. We'll start on

42
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: Sunday and we'll go through Tuesday. And I think that's

43
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: pretty much Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday four days, Sunday, Monday

44
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: two US three days either way. Week thirteen will start

45
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon. Your Texans will definitely be part of that,

46
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: so we got plenty of you. Like I said, I'll

47
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 1: give you my keys to the game, keys to the game,

48
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: keys to a win over the Colts. I'll also do

49
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: my predictions. We've got others joining the show, which I'm

50
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: looking forward to. DP who sits down for her one

51
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: on one Deep Slant interview brought to you by ex

52
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: Affinity with BC one three Brandon Cooks. The timing could

53
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: not be more perfect for Brandon Cooks to join his show,

54
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: so I'm looking forward to hear it from him as

55
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: he sat down with Deepy. So we'll have that four

56
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: year next segment. Then Drew Doherty's twelve question drews Dozens

57
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: Drew's dozen twelve questions this week with a guy that

58
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: I think could play a pretty big role against the Colts.

59
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: If the receivers cooks and qt, there's not enough volume

60
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: there for them because it's just the two of them.

61
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: I think Phararell Brown could get involved in a number

62
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: of different ways in this offense. At tight end he

63
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: fells Aikins and done a phenomenal job. And Farrell Brown

64
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: has one heck of an interview and Drew Doherty goes

65
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: twelve questions with him. That's going to be very, very fun.

66
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: And Drew I gave him the final word each and

67
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: every week in our final segment, and this week, Drew, well,

68
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: he went a little longer than he usually does, which

69
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm totally fine with. You know, anybody eating up innings

70
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: for the show man, that's good stuff. So we're gonna

71
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: have Drew sit down with Duke Johnson, excited to hear

72
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: what Duke Johnson has to say. He's always a fun guy.

73
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: I've grown over these two years to really like Duke Johnson.

74
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: I mean like him and like him a lot. And

75
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: I think the game against the Lions really just showed

76
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: everything he's all about. He had a one hand catch

77
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: on the sideline that turned into a first down on

78
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: what was a long checkdown, but Duke makes a one

79
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: handed catch turns that into a ten plus yard gain.

80
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: He has the touchdown catch matched up on a linebacker

81
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: down the field. He has nine carries I think for

82
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 1: thirty seven yards. I think that was the number, so

83
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: it's over four yards a carry. I mean that, in

84
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: essence is what the Texans should have been doing with

85
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: him all along. He should be getting twelve thirteen touches

86
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: a game, there's no doubt, not just a running back,

87
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: but at receiver, in the slot, wherever. But getting him

88
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: as touches I think is hugely important. And Duke got

89
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: those touches against Detroit and hopefully he gets them against

90
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. So Duke Johnson will have our final

91
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: word Withdrew Doherty later in the show, but let's get

92
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: kicked off with some hot reads. And the hot reads

93
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: are brought to you by Geico. Fifteen minutes, you can

94
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: say you're fifteen percent or more on car insurance and

95
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: at the holiday season, who does not want to say

96
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: fifteen percent on anything? Dog toys, motorcycles, spat package gifts,

97
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,600
Speaker 1: certific hits. You want to say fifteen percent. What about

98
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: car insurance. It's perfect way to do it so with

99
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: our hot reads as every single Friday or two days

100
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: before the game or date for the game, as it

101
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: was when we went to Detroit. Mark Vanderman's voices, the

102
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: Texans gets a chance to sit down with the head

103
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: coach of your Houston Texans, Romeo Cranell, and here's what

104
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: they chatted about this week. Coach, No question, this is

105
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: a huge rivalry. It's the Indianapolis Colts and a lot

106
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: of recent and long term history between the two franchises.

107
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: Do you find there's a little something extra when you

108
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: get into a game like this in your division against

109
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: such a rival. Yeah, sure, you know won the rivalry

110
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: itself makes it big, and then you're playing them at

111
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: home this time, so that even elevates it a little

112
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: bit more so. I think our guys are excited about

113
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: the possibility and ready to go. How has preparation been, Obviously,

114
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: you're getting ready without Will Fuller and Bradley Roby have

115
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: talked a lot about that all week, but you had

116
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: a little extra time to rejuvenate following the Thanksgiving Day victory.

117
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,719
Speaker 1: How has it been for you getting ready for this one. Well,

118
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: you know, the guys had some time off over the weekend,

119
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: and so now then they came in raring to go,

120
00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: you know, on Monday. But you know it's as things happened.

121
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: You know, we got Monday canceled and then Tuesday was

122
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: their day off, and so then we are back to

123
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: a normal week. But they've been paying attention, they've been attentive,

124
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: they got good attitude, and we've had a couple of

125
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: good days of practice. Do you feel like with Deshaun's

126
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: running that that's added a little bit to this attack

127
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: that was really needed. You're running the ball still, you're

128
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: still attempting to run the ball, and you're having some success,

129
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: but Watson's selective running seems to have made a little

130
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: bit of a difference that added ingredient. Well, anytime you

131
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: face a running quarterback, you know, that adds that ingredient

132
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: that you're talking about, because for the longest time in

133
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: this league, quarterbacks didn't run. Now most of them do run,

134
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: and so defenses had to account for them. Uh. And

135
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: he has a knack of knowing when to tuck it

136
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: and and gaining yards and when to uh throy you know,

137
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: and so uh that that extra bit there. It makes

138
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: the tougher on defenses. You made the point this week

139
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: about the Cults defense. He can't just look at last week.

140
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 1: Last week they gave up the rushing yards, of course

141
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: and lost badly at home, But overall, this is a

142
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: very tough defense you're facing. What concerns you about them, Well,

143
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: the front, the front four particularly, you know, they are

144
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: physical group, they got good length um, they've had success,

145
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: you know, one of the top defenses in the leg.

146
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to do a very good job

147
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: against those guys so that our offense and Deshaun can

148
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: can get rolling and get going. So with Philip Rivers

149
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: at this stage of his career, coach, what are you

150
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: seeing out of their quarterback? Well, he's stilled an excellent quarterback.

151
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: He's sharp, he knows everything about the game. He can

152
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: recognize defenses even after the snap. He knows what guys

153
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: are doing because he does study as well, you know,

154
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 1: And so trying to keep him under control and not

155
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: let him make big plays in the game, you know,

156
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 1: And if we can get a good job done against

157
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: the running game, that will put more pressure on him,

158
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: and then it's a matter of attacking the pocket and

159
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: collapsing it around him so that he gets off the spot. Well,

160
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 1: finally we talked about the rivalry aspect of this. How

161
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: difficult is it to balance the emotion that you want

162
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: them to play with but you want everybody to be

163
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: precise and do exactly what you want them to do

164
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 1: within the game plan. How do you balance that, Coach? Well,

165
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: they are professionals, and that's what I tell you. You're

166
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: a professional, and you have to be under control but

167
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: still be aggressive when you need to be. And so

168
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: that's what you have to get done. Everybody's emotion sometimes

169
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: takes over, but you have to be able to control

170
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: those emotions and use them to your advantage. Coach, that's

171
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: a lot for joining us. Bestive luck against the Colts.

172
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: All right, Mark, thanks. You know, as I said, I

173
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: listened to that interview with Rock, I started thinking, boy

174
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: Rax got a history with the cults. There's no doubt

175
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: about that. When he was with the Patriots, his defenses

176
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 1: Oh three in particular, they shut down Peyton and the

177
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: cults were so frustrated. They're beating up our receivers. They're

178
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: really hurting our receivers. So then it changed the rule,

179
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: and in OH four, the Patriots beat him again, and

180
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: that was with Romeo Cornell's defense. So that was Romeo's

181
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: got scoreboard over the Colts when he made them cry

182
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: about the pressure the receivers were being held and being

183
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: too physical, and then Cornell just is like, yeah, okay,

184
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 1: well we don't have to hold you, so the next

185
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: year we'll show you the same thing and we won't

186
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: beat you up. Bull still beat you, and they did,

187
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 1: so Robeo has got scoreboard over the Colts forever as

188
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned. All right, let's get to our

189
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: next hot read. And forty eight hours before the game.

190
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: That means it is status report time, which a little

191
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: different than the injury report. They're kind of the same,

192
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: but this one becomes hugely important because it tells you

193
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: who's in, who's out, who's questionable, who to look for,

194
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: who not to look for. And in this one, it's

195
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 1: well it's the end of the year. Well that's since

196
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: the end of the year. It means we thirteen guys

197
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: are going to be banged up, and that's true for

198
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: the Texans. Two players out, actually two running backs, one fullback,

199
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: one running back. Cong Llespia deal with a back injury

200
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: and CJ. Procie has been sick all week. They are

201
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: both out of this game now. A couple things to

202
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: glean from that information was CJ out it means that

203
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: David Johnson potentially is back to We're a lot of

204
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: talk about David potentially being back for this one. I

205
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: don't think any final decision has been made of as

206
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: to whether David will be back, but I would hope

207
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: that he could be now. I said earlier about Duke

208
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: getting a dozen plus touches, I still think that's the case,

209
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 1: whether David plays or not. I think you have to

210
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: get those kind of touches for Duke Johnson. But unfortunately CJ.

211
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: Prosie will not get any of those as he is

212
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: out for this one, and I hate it. I really

213
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: like CJ and I have for a long time since

214
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: the day's back to Notre Dame. One player for the

215
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: Texas is questionable. That's Ross Blacklock. He did participate in

216
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: a limited capacity today at practice, so that was good,

217
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: but he is still listened as questionable. And then full

218
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: participants Brian Anger dealing with that quad and Lina Johnson

219
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: with the knee, so they are both in now. The

220
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: Colts are Hang onto your hat because there's a lot

221
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: going on with the Colts, and it starts with the

222
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: guys that are out. Rigoberto Sanchez dealing with illness. Now,

223
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: if you're with me throughout the week, you know I

224
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: mentioned that riga Berto Sanchez was dealing with a cancerous

225
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: tumor in his body. Now they have not put him

226
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 1: on IR. I would imagine he's got to go for chemo.

227
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, so I don't know what the deal is.

228
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: Other than Rigaberto Santez is out. I thought he would

229
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: be out for the season. He's out for this game.

230
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: He's the punner for the Colts, So Colts will have

231
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: to find somebody to pump Bobbiokarique is a is an

232
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: athletic against that linebacker. He's dealing with an ankle. He

233
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: is out. Cary willis starting safety. Okarique starts at linebacker

234
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: in most situations. Carry willis starting safety deb with the

235
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: back in a quad. He is out. And probably the

236
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: most important aspect and most important player that the Colts

237
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: will be missing on Sunday is Anthony Costanzo dealing with

238
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: a knee that's spring MCL. The question will be. Can

239
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 1: Costanzoll make it back for the game two weeks from

240
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,479
Speaker 1: now after the Texans play the Bears, they go to Inneapolis,

241
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: so it's Colts Bears. Colts. Could Costanzo got back for

242
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: that game against the Texans. Hard to say with that MCL,

243
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: but he is definitely out of this one. So Oka,

244
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: Rique Sanchez, Willis and Costanzo all out. Now the Colts

245
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: all week? Would they get an Eco Autry and the

246
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: Forrest Buckner back. It looks like they are back. They

247
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: were both full participants in practice today and that's kind

248
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: of yeah. Those are the two guys that I was

249
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: really really worried about. Now I like to see them back.

250
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong. I didn't want to have to

251
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: block him because the team that I saw, I guess

252
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: the Titans was a whole different group than the one

253
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: that we're going to see Sunday. Because those two guys

254
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: are out of it. They are animals, Autry and Buckner,

255
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: so they're going to be ready to go. There are

256
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: two players that are questionable. Noah TOGIAI tight end dealing

257
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: with a knee and Chaz Green has been dealing with

258
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: a back issue. But Green did participate fully in practice,

259
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: So those guys are out. Costanzo, Caique Sanchez, willis questionable, TOGII,

260
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: and Chaz Green. Now they've got other guys that are

261
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: banged up. Philip Rivers was back as a full participant.

262
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: He's been dealing with a toe issue. Quinn Nelson and

263
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: only away an offensive lineman could do it. I don't

264
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: want to say gave up Philip Rivers, but essentially said

265
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: during his media session that Rivers is dealing with a toe, foot,

266
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: whatever injury that has really truly impacted him. So the

267
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: Colts are banged up, and I guess week thirteen, everybody's

268
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: pretty much banged up. They've already gotten Jonathan Taylor back.

269
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: I think this week he was activated, so he's ready

270
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: to go. Autrey Buckner both in ready to go, but

271
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: Costanzo not ready to go. And I think that's gonna

272
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: be a big one for the Colts offensive line. So

273
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: guys banged up on both sides. With the Colts still

274
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: have significant members of that roster, especially in the offensive line.

275
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: Out of this one and keeping my Philip Rivers dealing

276
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: with a toe issue that could be exacerbated, the Texans

277
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: can get some pressure on him. We'll talk about that

278
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: in our Keys to game a little while later. All right,

279
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for our Hot reads brought to

280
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: you by Geike Go. Fifteen minutes can save you fifteen

281
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: percent or more on car insurance. When we return, it's

282
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: our deep Slant one on one of the week brought

283
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: to you Bikesffinity, and this week Deep sat down with

284
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: Branding Cooks. You won't want to miss that next right

285
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: here in Texas All Access. Welcome back to this Friday

286
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: edition in Texas All Access from the Honday Texans Radio Studio.

287
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Harris. Glad you are with me

288
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: this evening, and it's time to get to our deep

289
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: Slant one on one of the week brought to you Bikesfinity.

290
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: In this week, dep Cities sat down with the veteran

291
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: wide receiver, Branding Cooks. Last week, five catches for eighty

292
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: five yards. Brandon Cook getting done. Did not score any touchdowns.

293
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: He had to score touchdown since the one he had

294
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: against Jacksonville. But I don't care. He's been fantastic. He's

295
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: been excellent beating man coverage. He has been wonderful getting

296
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: into open areas and zones He's been great and I

297
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: hope that he can have a game on Sunday. They'll

298
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 1: lift the Texans to a victory and he'll get the

299
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: credit that he deserves because of the way that he

300
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: has played. He's on track for more than a thousand

301
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: yards receiving this year, which would be fantastic. Now in

302
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 1: his seventh year. I think that's right in the league.

303
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 1: Here's Deep City with Brandon Cooks. It's the Deep Slant

304
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: one on one presented Bikes Finity. My guests this week.

305
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: Wide Receiver Brandon Cooks, Brandon Welcoman. I haven't had a

306
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: chance to actually have a one on one with you

307
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: since you signed with the Texans, but just looking at

308
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: your numbers, you've had four one thousand yards seasons. You're

309
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: pretty much on pace to hit that again in twenty

310
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: twenty if all goes according to plan. How has it

311
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: in for you with the Texans this first season? Is

312
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: it about what you expected? Is it better than what

313
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: you expected record aside just your performance on the field. Yeah, no,

314
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, for me, you know, and not have that

315
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: offseason with Deshaun I think you know, OTAs you know,

316
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: presented a challenge and so that that slow start was,

317
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, not surprised about it, but I think now

318
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: that would continue to build that before, you know, weekend

319
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 1: and week out and getting better with one another. I'm

320
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: starting to see that connection continue to grow. And honestly,

321
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: that's all I can ask for. You know, we've seen

322
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: what Deshaun can do here in Houston, and it seems

323
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: like even we are surprised with the numbers that he's

324
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: putting up this year. What about from the receiver's point

325
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: of view, because there's a lot more passing happening in

326
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: this offense this year than we've ever seen before. But

327
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: what sort of growth have you seen from him as

328
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: the two of you have developed your chemistry. Yeah, he's

329
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: a special player. I'm not shocked at all. You talk

330
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: about a guy that could really make any throw out

331
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: there and like you said, passing a lot more for

332
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: whatever the situation may be. But you're talking about a

333
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: guy that's just special at his job, you know, top

334
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: in the league. And I didn't play with some great

335
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: ones and so to be able to say that, I

336
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: mean that, and then at the end of the day,

337
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: the way he can extend to play the guy is

338
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: different for sure, all Right, you and Will Fuller have

339
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: been a lot of fun to watch. Obviously, we saw

340
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: the news this week that he's going to be out

341
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season, and Romeo Cornell was

342
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: asked about it. He says that he doesn't really want

343
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: you to be any different than what you've already been

344
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 1: to the team, but you know, maybe you might be

345
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: able to step up as a veteran in that wide

346
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: receiver group and offer some guidance to the young receivers.

347
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: I heard you talk about it in your press conference.

348
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: What is that going to be like for you? It's

349
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 1: you you're not new to the NFL, but you're still

350
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: in your first year with the Texans, but you have

351
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 1: built that that rapport with your position group. Yeah, the

352
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 1: biggest thing is just, you know, trust in the process

353
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: and like I told him, you guys, don't try to

354
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: do anything out of the north. You know, do your

355
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 1: job the best that you can and let everything gets

356
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: take care is so the last thing you need to

357
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: do is go out there and force it and think,

358
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 1: oh I need to do is because this person used

359
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: to do that. No, you are who you are and

360
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 1: you're on this roster for a reason. So letting them

361
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: know that they can had that confidence to go out

362
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: there and play free. All right, You've scored some touchdowns

363
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: this year, and I'm sure you've addressed this with other

364
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 1: teams that you've been with, but I've never heard you

365
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: talk about it here in Houston. But I want to

366
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: know about the celebration, the Archer, the bow and arrow

367
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: thing that you've got going on, because it seems like

368
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 1: Archer is like a common theme with your social media,

369
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 1: with your celebrations. Yeah. For me, it's just another way

370
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: to give God glory, and my faith is everything to me,

371
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: and so instead of a traditional crossing, you know, your

372
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 1: heart always wanted to come up with something unique, and

373
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 1: I came across this verse song one forty four six

374
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: and it stuck with me. And so that was just

375
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: my way being ever get God glory anytime I, you know,

376
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: do something special out there on the field. Oh that's interesting.

377
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: I like that you and you became a dad recently too.

378
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: I saw that your son's middle name is Archer as well.

379
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: Yes it is, Yes it is. Yeah. I like that.

380
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: That's really cool. All right, So I like to look

381
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: at people's social media accounts. I feel like I get

382
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: a good sense of them, and someone told me that

383
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 1: you are a big time photographer and you have a

384
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: whole separate account for your photography, which was pretty impressive.

385
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: All right, So it's um Archer twelve eyes. Yeah, that correct,

386
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: all right? So you do landscape portrait photography. When did

387
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: all that begin? And how do you have time to

388
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: keep up on I tried photographer a little bit and

389
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: everything is collecting us now. But that all start. It

390
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: started about two years ago. My wife and I, well,

391
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 1: first of all, my mental we've been on went on

392
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: a big trip together one time and Eric and I,

393
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: he he introduced me to travel. He's always traveled the

394
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: world his whole life, and we traveled without have a

395
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: true camera on me. So I thought to myself, there's

396
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: no way I can be going to these other countries

397
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: without capturing some of these special moments. And so I

398
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: really want to learn. And I got induced Tolka and

399
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: from their own I started to get mentored by some

400
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,479
Speaker 1: of their photographers. UM and I took it a ran

401
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 1: with it so that the time comes really right when

402
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: the offseason starts, because that's when I can get my

403
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: month to traveling in and then my wife and I

404
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: we travel a lot ever since. So that's when they

405
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: all picked up. All right, So what's your what are

406
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: you really what's your best pictures that you've taken so far?

407
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: What's something that you really want to try your hand

408
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 1: out when it comes to photograph. I think my favorite

409
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: pictures so far, it's probably one of the shots, uh

410
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: in New Zealand that I took. It's a it's a

411
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: landscape shot for me. We love New Zealand, we've been

412
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: there multiple times. Um, so I would probably say it

413
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: has to do one of my pictures that happened in

414
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: New Jube. All right, So how much have you invested

415
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: in photography? Like it's a lot of lenses and a

416
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: lot of it. Yeah, I know it's and it feels

417
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 1: like the more money you spend, the better your pictures

418
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 1: turn out. That's what it seemed like. But then sometimes

419
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: you can go down as rabbit hole. I think you

420
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,080
Speaker 1: need all these all these gadgets, but in reality, you

421
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: can get you one perfect lens. But it's uh, it's

422
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: not the cheapest I'll be let's just say that. Yeah,

423
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: no it's not. And I speak from personal experience, but

424
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 1: I did. It didn't really make my foot I think

425
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: lessons probably would have helped me more than an expensive lens. Um.

426
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: All right, you've got some really cute dogs. I'm really

427
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: into your dogs. You've got three of them. I think

428
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 1: we may have the same breed of dog. What kind

429
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 1: of dog do you have? I got a grown Retriever

430
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: and two golden doodles. Okay, I have a golden doodle too.

431
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why I'm drawn to your dogs, no doubt. Okay,

432
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: three dogs and a baby. Are we going to add

433
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 1: more dogs or more meat? Now? The next thing, we'll

434
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: be adding more babies, but no more dogs. I have

435
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: one and I'm busy. So but I have one dog

436
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: and three kids, so so I think, yeah, either way,

437
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: it's it's not easy. Yeah, all right, Sunday's game is

438
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 1: my cause? My cleats and I saw that your cause

439
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: was single moms, and you've done something. You've done a

440
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: lot of work in your past with single moms, like

441
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 1: in you've gone some really cool stuff building houses in Uganda.

442
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: I can only assume that comes from your own personal experience.

443
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: Why is this cause so near and dear to your heart?

444
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: Exactly what you said from my personal experience, my mom

445
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: raising me and my three brothers growing up. You know,

446
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: my dad passed away when I was young, so I

447
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: always had a special place in my heart. You know,

448
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: my mom has always been my motivation and to see

449
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: everything that she did and grow up the way that

450
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,880
Speaker 1: we did, it was a no brainer when I made it.

451
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: Always wanted to help out in that area just because

452
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: it has a special place in my heart. Are you

453
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: from Uganda? Is your family from you? Oh? No, it

454
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: was just something that I wanted to do to my

455
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: church that I was introduced to, and um something that

456
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: we my wife and I wanted to do. But now

457
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: I'm from California, so you have no accent from being

458
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: from Uganda. Tremendous. All right, Well, I don't want to

459
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 1: put you on the spot, but I kind of want

460
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: to know. I feel like whenever you make a big

461
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: play on in the field, it's it's exciting, it's momentum shifting.

462
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: It's been a lot of fun to watch you this season.

463
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: But do you have a favorite catch or favorite moment

464
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: from this season? That's a good question. No, No, really,

465
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: not really. I mean they've all been fun. You put

466
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: me on a spot right there that I was gonna say,

467
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: I think a fifty seven yard touchdown might be. I

468
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 1: think I don't want to put an answer. I don't

469
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: want to give you your answer. No, yeah, I haven't

470
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,160
Speaker 1: thought about that, so I ain't gotten employee there. Well,

471
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: you've got a few more games left and so hopefully

472
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,720
Speaker 1: that moment is still yet to come. So best to

473
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: luck for the rest of the season. Always a pleasure, Brandon,

474
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 1: Thank you, nice to meet you. Thank you too. Yeah,

475
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: it's kind of funny Brandon Cooks being a first year

476
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,880
Speaker 1: guy with the Texans. Obviously he's been around the league.

477
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 1: He's been with the Saints, you've been with the Patriots,

478
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: he's been with the Rams, and now he's with us.

479
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: But because we've been out of the building with COVID

480
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: and all those kind of things, you don't get a

481
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: chance to know these guys that much. Typically we know

482
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: these guys really, really well, but we don't get the opportunity.

483
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: We've hardly had the opportunity to see anybody. So Brandon

484
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 1: was really meeting dep City for the first time during

485
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 1: that Zoom meeting. Now, I will say most of the

486
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: time when you've done it, when we've done interviews in

487
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: the past, well they've been in the same room and

488
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: so that's good. You could see each other face to face.

489
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: At least a zoom meeting was good enough. You could

490
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 1: put a face with a voice. That's not the greatest

491
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: thing in the world, but it's a whole heck of

492
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: a lot better than nothing, There's no question about that.

493
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: So Brandon Cooks couldn't figure out his favorite play this year.

494
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: I tend to think that Obviously, the touchdown against Jacksonville

495
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: was fantastic because it put Jacksonville away respond on a

496
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: fourth down. I mean, that was that was tight. That

497
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: that was excellent stuff. That's probably my favorite of his.

498
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: But I feel like against Detroit, those five catches were

499
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: all huge catches, getting into open areas of the zone.

500
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 1: Doing a great job being a professional wide receiver. And

501
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: what I mean by that is knowing you'll look when

502
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: you're amongst a group of wide receivers that's very very good.

503
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: You got Will Floor on one side, you got kick Qt,

504
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: You've got Randall cobbiner lineup at certain times, and you're

505
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: not gonna get every every pass thrown you. They're gonna

506
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: be times when you're asked to do things like, hey, Brandon,

507
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: we need you to just run a takeoff as fast

508
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,719
Speaker 1: as you can and get the heck out of Dodge

509
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: so we get to hit this deep over route. You

510
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: got it, boss, And that's what he's done. He did

511
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: it against Detroit and will full on it up with

512
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 1: a big, big catch as a result. But now Brandon's

513
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: gotta step up. Might see more targets. I would imagine

514
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: you would. Against the Colts. That's gonna be tough, gonna

515
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: be really tough because they are physical, but they like

516
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: to play a lot of zone and because of that,

517
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks could have a big ball game. So I'm

518
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: glad Deep had him on to get his thoughts about

519
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: the year. I'll answer the question about the biggest play.

520
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,400
Speaker 1: I think that one against Jacksonville. Not the fifty seven

521
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 1: yard or were he called him flat and just took

522
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: up the sideline, But the one at the end of

523
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: the game to seal it. That was that was fun,

524
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: good stuff. All right. When we get back it's not

525
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: from my first Community Credit Union first class keys to

526

540
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: the Game, Right Aaron Texans All Access. I your host,

541
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: John Harris, football analyst, the side of the reporter. Do

542
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: this each and every Friday, or if it's a Thursday,

543
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: I do it the day before on Wednesday. If to

544
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: Monday night game, I do it on Friday. I always

545
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: do my Keys to the Game, and this is no different.

546
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: It's the Colts seven and four on the year, and

547
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: it's time to rock. Now. A couple of things before

548
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: we dive into the Keys. Ten regular season matchups since

549
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen combined score of two twenty four to two twelve.

550
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: That's an average score of twenty two point four to

551
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 1: twenty one point two. There, it's a one point two

552
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 1: on average in those ten games. A little edge to

553
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: the Colts there, but that's how close these games can be.

554
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: How about this. Here's another thought with that, the Texans

555
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: and Colts. Here are the margins of victory in each

556
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: of the last ten regular season matchups three seven, three

557
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: three nine, six five three six seven every single game

558
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: in twenty all the way through twenty fifteen. Now you

559
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: can add it twenty fourteen as well. Twenty fourteen. If

560
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: I remember correctly, those margins were twenty forty was like

561
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: five at home and six on the road. We lost

562
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: both of those games, so that would skew it a

563
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: little bit. So I stopped at twenty fifteen minutes because

564
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: it would have been seven to five and it would

565
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: have been another ten points of distance and margin between

566
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: the Colts and the Texans either way. The point being,

567
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: in the last twelve games, last ten games these two

568
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: teams in the regular season, home and away, it's been

569
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: a knockdown, drag out going all the way to the

570
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. You think about last year twenty seventeen win.

571
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: The Texans had to get a Watson, the Hopkins throwing

572
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter to eventually take the lead, and then

573
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: Brent Scarlett to make a play on fourth down to

574
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: end that one. Basically, whether Colts or when the Texans

575
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: went to play the Colts or twenty nineteen. The Texans

576
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: were driving at the end of the game, down by seven,

577
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: a tip passed ended up in Darius Leonard's hands to

578
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: end the game thirty to twenty three. In twenty eighteen,

579
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: the Colts upset the Texans in NRG Stadium twenty four

580
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,239
Speaker 1: twenty one. The game earlier that year, the Texans went

581
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: to the Colts, oh and three, game goes to overtime.

582
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: Colts go for on the fourth down, don't get it,

583
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: Watson hits, Hopkins spikes it, kicks a field goal. Team

584
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 1: wins thirty seven thirty four. Twenty seventeen was ugly, just

585
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: both games are ugly. Twenty sixteen, the Texans swept the Colts,

586
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: and that's the only time I think in history. Yeah,

587
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: that was the only time in history the Texans swept

588
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: the Colts because they didn't win a road game at

589
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: Indie until twenty fifteen. They split fifteen. Texans swept in sixteen,

590
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: Colts swept in seventeen, they split in eighteen, they split

591
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: in nineteen, and now here we go to twenty twenty.

592
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: My goodness, here we go. Now there are three games

593
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 1: different in difference in the standings. It could be a

594
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: lot closer. Obviously, the Texans could have gotten that one

595
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: at Tennessee. They could have gotten more than seven points

596
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: at Cleveland. That could have been two wins. This could

597
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: be six and five or seven four. But it's not.

598
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: And the Texans come into this one with no Will Fuller,

599
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: no Bradley Roby, and the Colts are favored. It's moved

600
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: slightly to three and a half. I'm still a little

601
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: bit surprised. Two of the better Texans will not play

602
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: in the line has only moved to three and a half.

603
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: Shows you A that Vegas I don't think is ready

604
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: to buy all the way in on Indianapolis. And B

605
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: they believe in Deshaun Watson and what he can do

606
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: regardless of who is at receiver. All right, how do

607
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: you get a win? What are the keys to a

608
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: victory over the Colts. Let's start with the Texans defense

609
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: facing a Colts offense that is rushing for just one

610
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: oh four point four yards per game. That's twenty second

611
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Keep that in mind, just one oh

612
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: four point four. They were one of the top three

613
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: rushing teams in the league last couple of years, but

614
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: now they're twenty second in the NFL. They throw for

615
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: two sixty five point six that's tenth in the NFL.

616
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: With Philip Rivers at the Helm. Total offense three and

617
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: seventy yards a game, that's twelfth in the NFL. They've

618
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: turned it over twelve times now where this offense, Philip

619
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: Rivers is at the Helm, last year with Jacoby bricept

620
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: year before that was Andrew Luck, year before that was

621
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: Jacoby Briset. They've kind of bound back and forth through

622
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and I don't know if they'll bring Philip Rivers back.

623
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 1: A lot of whether they bring Philip Rivers back in

624
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: the future will have to do with what happens on

625
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: Sunday and the rest of the year. So how do

626
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 1: you stop him? Let's start with the keys. Number one,

627
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: the man in the mask returns. If you remember the

628
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: playoff game in twenty eighteen, a lot was made of

629
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: Ty Hilton wearing a clown mask into NRG Stadium. Then

630
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: he walked onto the field and lit us up and

631
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,359
Speaker 1: booted us out of the playoffs, booted eleven five team

632
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: out of the playoffs and moved on to the vision

633
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 1: around that obviously is t Y Hilton. He is very

634
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: much at home at NRG Stadium. In sixteen total games,

635
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: he has eighty five catches over fifteen hundred yards and

636
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: I believe it's ten touchdowns now NRG Stadium. If you

637
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: just limited to those games, his numbers are off the chart. However,

638
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: last year and the only matchup at Energy Stadium, he

639
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: had three catches for eighteen yards. The Texans did a

640
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 1: great job of taking Hilton away, and how did they

641
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 1: do it. Some of that was Bradley Roby, Some of

642
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: that was with some double coverage. Some of that was

643
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: just Kobe Brissette just didn't want to throw the football

644
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: and get rid of it. Philip Rivers will get rid

645
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 1: of football, which is problematic for the Colts and Hilton,

646
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: and in some sense because Rivers wants to get rid

647
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: of it. So he'll check down to his backs, he'll

648
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 1: throw to his tight ends, he'll get it to those guys.

649
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: But what that does is make Hilton very dangerous in

650
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: the catch and run game. The Texans have to do

651
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: everything possible to take him away. There's been a lot

652
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: of talk this week. I was listening to my guys

653
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: in Sports Trade six ten and they would talk about, Oh,

654
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 1: everybody's texting in saying that Hilton has been great this year.

655
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: That can turn on a dime. First of all, he's

656
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: healthy for really the first time all year, and he

657
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: had his best game last week against the Titans being healthy.

658
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 1: So now he comes into a place where he lights

659
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: it up. And look, professional athletes, Batham or any kind

660
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: of athlete, you get comfortable in a building. And I

661
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: mean I can speak to that. Played three different sports,

662
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: and there were certain places where I've loved to play

663
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, love playing in either of the sports,

664
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: love playing just knew I was gonna have a great

665
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: game playing in those locations. Hilton is that kind of guy,

666
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: and Texans must find a way to keep him in check,

667
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: whether it's man coverage, beat him up in the line

668
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, as much as they can give and safety help,

669
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: whatever they got to do. Hilton has got to be

670
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: eliminated from the game plan number two. What you see

671
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: is not what you get. Now. What that refers to

672
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: is the Texans ability to use disguises to maybe not

673
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,320
Speaker 1: confuse Philip Rivers, because Phillip's probably seen it at all,

674
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: but maybe confuse a rookie receiver like Michael Pittman. Maybe

675
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: show Philip something that he's not accustomed to seeing. Maybe

676
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: a fluster him a little bit with that. But you've

677
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 1: got to be good with your disguises. You can't sit

678
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: there and show him something and then play it. He'll

679
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 1: eat it up. Now, Philip Rivers will probably figure out

680
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 1: your disguises at some point. But the better you are

681
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 1: at showing that disguise late and getting out of it late.

682
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: And I remember my coaches a long long time ago

683
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: used to say, look, you may have to run to

684
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: your spot, you might have to run to your coverage meeting.

685
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 1: You show that disguise so long that you hold it

686
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: even right to the snap as close as you can

687
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: the snap meeting. Holy smokes, I gotta go from a

688
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 1: half field player with my disguise to the middle of

689
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,720
Speaker 1: the field player. But those disis, disguises would work. Those

690
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: disguises can help against Philip Rivers can help against the receivers.

691
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,800
Speaker 1: They might even with some movement and such upfront, combined

692
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: with disguises might throw people off up front, so you

693
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 1: might be able to get somebody free in a blitz.

694
00:37:55,640 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: Disguises are incredibly important, especially against offense like the Colts.

695
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: All Right, number three, hands up. Philip Rivers is a

696
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: six four quarterback. He's a big guy. If you ever

697
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: stood next to Phil, he's a big guy. But he

698
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 1: throws side arm, so he goes from being like six

699
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 1: four to like six foot and a half inch and

700
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: that ball comes down low and some passes getting knocked down.

701
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,439
Speaker 1: And the Texans have a player who can knock those

702
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: passes down. But he's not the only one. Carlos Watkins

703
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: is at a couple of passes batted down over the

704
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: last five six weeks. If you're not getting there with

705
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: the rush, get your hands up and it doesn't take much.

706
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 1: You don't have to jump in the air. No offensive

707
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: lineman just jacks you up. You just can get your

708
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: hands up at the line of scrimmage. You're gonna be

709
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: able to knock that thing down. Now. The one thing

710
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: about Philip, though, is it comes out quickly, so you

711
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 1: better know quickly you can't get there. And if you know,

712
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: you know, get your hands up, get your hands up.

713
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:02,959
Speaker 1: Knocks and passes down. Joins JJ in knocking those passes down.

714
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: That would be a huge boost for this defense. Number

715
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: four get off me. Q Q relates to or refers

716
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: to Quentin Nelson. In my twenty eighteen Harris one hundred,

717
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: I said numerous times, Quinn Nelson's my number one. I

718
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 1: won't move him. I've seen enough of him. I notre

719
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: dame to know he's the best football player in his draft,

720
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: and I think it's really born itself out that he

721
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: is and continues to be the best player in that draft.

722
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: I don't think he's having as good a year as

723
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: he had last year, but I expect the Colts. You

724
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: remember that one oh four point four yards per game number.

725
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,919
Speaker 1: I expect that number to try and go up the tech.

726
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: The Colts are going to try and run the ball

727
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 1: in Texas. I'm convinced to that. I'm convinced they're gonna

728
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 1: try and pound it at least thirty times. Jonathan Taylor's

729
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: back off the COVID list, they still have name be

730
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 1: hinds of Jordan Wilkins. Those guys are all fresh after

731
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: Taylors just pounded on a defense at two hundred and

732
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:08,479
Speaker 1: thirty pounds. But the biggest thing is Nelson because those

733
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: linebackers Terrell Adams and Zach Cuttingham, they've been free somewhat

734
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: to run into the football lately because of the way

735
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: the front's playing. Well, this is Quinton Nelson and this

736
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: is Ryan Kelly. This is a much better group up front.

737
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to get those blockers off and those

738
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: front guys are gonna have to be as violent on

739
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 1: Quinton Nelson as they've ever been. One of the best

740
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 1: matchups I've ever seen was Quintin Nelson as DJ Reader

741
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: last year. Reader bent him over backwards a couple of times.

742
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: Reader could handle that one on one. I don't know

743
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: that any guys with the Texans upfront can handle it.

744
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,839
Speaker 1: And with Ross Blacklock being sick, guys are gonna wear down.

745
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: So they're going to have to play incredibly violent with

746
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 1: Quinton Nelson to try and keep those linebackers clean. And

747
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 1: when the linebackers come and Nelson's got them in their sights,

748
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: they've got to at least matches physicality as best they can.

749
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,719
Speaker 1: It's going to be a difficult matchup, no doubt. And

750
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 1: number five turnovers are nice, right, remember remember last week

751
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 1: turnovers are awesome. Three turns in the first half. They

752
00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: led to a nine point lead going into halftime, and

753
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: then the Texans offense really got cranked up in the

754
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: second half and blew them out. Turnovers are nice. Okay,

755
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 1: let's get to the Texans offense against the Colts defense.

756
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: That gives up one hundred and one point nine yards

757
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: per game on a ground It's seventh in the NFL.

758
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: They gave up just two o nine point nine in

759
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: the air. That's six three hundred eleven point eight yards

760
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:44,760
Speaker 1: per game. That's fifth overall. They've come up with seventeen turnovers,

761
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:48,240
Speaker 1: twelve interceptions, five phone recovers. They're plus five and turnover margin.

762
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: They get back to Forrest Buckner, they get back Denico Autry.

763
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: They do lose Cary Willis though, and that's that's a

764
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 1: big one starting safety. That's a big loss to not

765
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: have Cary Willis in the back end. Now is it

766
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 1: enough for the Texas to take advantage? Well, let's see.

767
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 1: Let's get to the Keys against the Colts defense. Number

768
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 1: one fast flow the other way. Now where does that mean? Well,

769
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 1: I guess it's Heightens. The Colts saw that outside slash

770
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: wide zone and the linebackers are so fast they just flew.

771
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: They just flew. They ran in a spot and it

772
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 1: Tightens did a great job of staying on those blocks

773
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: and running them past where they really wanted to be,

774
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 1: and then Derrick Henry would cut back. The good news

775
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: if David is back, if Duke is back, well do

776
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,479
Speaker 1: you know Duke's there? But if David is fully back,

777
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,919
Speaker 1: those two guys are very good cut up runners, and

778
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: that's the kind of thing they can take advantage of.

779
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 1: If the Colts fast flow to a spot, then they

780
00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: can cut it back. And then what happened was the

781
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: Colts linebackers got a little slower in pursuit and then

782
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: Henry just stayed on his path and was able to

783
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: find running room there. Henry had one hundred and seventy

784
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: yards in the ground. The Texas don't run it exceptionally well,

785
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 1: but this might be an opportunity. But with Buckner and

786
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,399
Speaker 1: Utry back in, it's gonna be tough, but they can

787
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:13,839
Speaker 1: use that aggressiveness against them going to other direction. Number two.

788
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 1: Let me count the ways, and this has to do

789
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,720
Speaker 1: with the pass catchers. And I use pass catchers instead

790
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 1: of receivers because there's no Stills, there's no Cob, there's

791
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: no Fuller. That is significantly hamstrong. Your wide receiver group,

792
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: but your tight end group is fantastic, all three of them,

793
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,919
Speaker 1: even all four of them. Your running backs are great

794
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: in the receiving game, both Johnson's and you've got Cooks

795
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 1: QT and potentially Isaiah Coulter or another person up for

796
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: the practice squad. Put them together in a lot of

797
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: different mixes in the mixology. I don't think it's going

798
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 1: to be a bad thing for this Texans offense. Number three,

799
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 1: do whatever it takes to not let ninety and ninety

800
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: nine rerec the game from the inside. Nineties, Grover Stewart,

801
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,319
Speaker 1: you just signed a big deal Forrest Buckner's ninety nine.

802
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: He who has traded for a first round pick and

803
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 1: has been that and then some. Those two can take

804
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: over the game. They are massive in different ways. The

805
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: Forrest Buckner is long with size twelve inch hands. Stewart

806
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 1: is built like a brick house. This interior is going

807
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: to have very difficult time. But they cannot let those

808
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 1: two wreck the game. Number four find twenty six and

809
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 1: man coverage. It's pretty simple. That's rock you seene. He

810
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: has struggled in man coverage. He's given up a lot

811
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 1: of penalty yardage. He's the guy that they can take

812
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 1: advantage of. And finally, number five find the holes in

813
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: the zone. Colts like play cover two about thirty one

814
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 1: percent of the time there will be holes in the coverage.

815
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: Texans receivers pass catchers have got to find him into.

816
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson's got to give him the football. That simple, right,

817
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 1: got it? Those are your first Community cred Union first

818
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: glance keys to the game. We are done with our

819
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 1: first hour of the show. We get back. We will

820
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 1: go Drew Doherty twelve questions with Farrell Brown. That's next.

821
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 1: I'm Texans Delaxis. I'm Texans Delaxis. I'm Texans de Locks.

822
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: We got one hour down and one hour left to go.

823
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:13,360

Speaker 1: of the in the Lab podcast. We're gonna partner Drew Doherty.

826
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 1: Now Drew goes out on his own when he does

827
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: Drew's Dozen twelve questions. He sits down with a player,

828
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 1: and these questions can be anything, favorite Christmas movie, favorite holiday,

829
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,800
Speaker 1: the last time you went to the post office, the

830
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 1: first thing you bought. Whatever. I mean, it can run

831
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 1: the gamut. And this week it's Faraoh Brown. He did

832
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 1: the one on one with DP and it was fantastic.

833
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: So now it's twelve Questions with Drew. I'm looking forward

834
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 1: to this. Let's check it out. Here's Drew's Dozen with

835
00:45:54,040 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: Pararell Brown. This is a real treat. We've got Pharaoh Brown,

836
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 1: the tight End. I mean, it's our first time to

837
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: have Pharaoh on Drews dozen. So Pharaoh, let's start with this.

838
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: A few weeks back, you catch a pass against the

839
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 1: Patriots and I think it took about nineteen of them

840
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: to bring you down. What was the reaction in the

841
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,399
Speaker 1: meeting room when you all as a as a group

842
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: look back at that play, in that catch, It's just

843
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: kind of a tone setter, uh in the meeting room,

844
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 1: just you know, Uh, the tight Ends, we have a

845
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: tough group. So I think the first guy to tackle

846
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: me was like Stephanie Gilmore, which I mean he's a

847
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 1: great player, but he's a defensive back. Uh. I mean,

848
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 1: I just kind of you gotta tell the other guys

849
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: you go out of mindset and can't know Dbat just

850
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 1: tacking you by myself. So they're gonna have to bring.

851
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to bring the whole game when when

852
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: they're trying to come talk to one of our tight

853
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 1: ends and that's our mindset. And I just try to

854
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: be a leader in the room league go out there

855
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: and show it as well. Wow. Okay, So in that room,

856
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 1: it was sort of like, yeah, that's expected. What in

857
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 1: the rooms here? Up in the offices, we were going bananas.

858
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,319
Speaker 1: So just so you know that there's a little bit

859
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 1: of different reaction, But that's cool. I like it. Keep

860
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 1: making those sort of plays if you can. Okay, you're

861
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 1: stranded on a desert island. You have enough water that

862
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 1: you'll never get thirsty, and you get at least one

863
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,479
Speaker 1: meal per day so you're not gonna starve. What two

864
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 1: other things people objects are you gonna bring with you

865
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 1: to make that desert island enjoyable. I would have to

866
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: bring my son and my wife. I'm a big family guy.

867
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: I think we got stuck on the island. We can

868
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 1: eat half food and we'll have a good, enjoyable time.

869
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: All Right, My wife and son can't lead a family.

870
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 1: How old is your son? My son, he's just turned

871
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: one on Thanksgiving? Actually one on Thanksgiving? How about that?

872
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 1: That was a good timing, not bad, not bad? So

873
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 1: what sort of stuff is he watching these days? Is

874
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: he watching anything fun? I try to limited screen time.

875
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,160
Speaker 1: I've been like the end a bunch of studies in

876
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 1: this shade. Uh I'm like a big reader, and uh

877
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 1: I can get I can go down the rabbit hole sometimes.

878
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,320
Speaker 1: But it's all these studies that say, like the screen

879
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 1: and all these apps and stuff is really not good

880
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: just for the brain development of our youth. So I

881
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: think they say about eighteen months with study show. So

882
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: I try to limit his like TV time, his screen time.

883
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: His grandmother spoiling. He got like an ipass so they

884
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: can call him. I'm like, he's only he's not even

885
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: one year. He got an iPad. So the only time

886
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 1: he watches something is like if he's just going bananas,

887
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 1: like just screaming. And it's kind of crazy because when

888
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: you put the thing in front of him, he just

889
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,440
Speaker 1: gets glued in. I'm like, this can't be good. But

890
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 1: so I don't want ly watch my stuff. We just

891
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: run playing. I gotta keep my energy up after practices

892
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: because not get home. It's you know, we're going zero two,

893
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,839
Speaker 1: one hundred all night. So we just kind of more

894
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 1: just play around. Honestly, I got you, all right? Can

895
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,719
Speaker 1: you tell it? Does he like football? Is a football fan?

896
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 1: He actually stayed he went to his first game. Who's

897
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 1: that we just played at home Hatriots? Oh my god?

898
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 1: He was at the Pictures game when he stayed up

899
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 1: the whole He actually stayed up the whole game. He

900
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: actually liked the cheerleaders more at this time. Not bad,

901
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 1: that's good, all right. Duh. Who is a teammate which

902
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 1: Texan makes you laugh most? Uh, that's a good one.

903
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 1: I'd probably say Darren. Darren kind of like he's real.

904
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: He's not like just funny, but you gotta like just

905
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,040
Speaker 1: catch some of stuff. Like he's like old witty kind

906
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 1: of funny, Like he say seven like it'll go over

907
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,640
Speaker 1: some people head, but like I catch it. It's just

908
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: like it's just hack a funny like he got like

909
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: those old man he's been around a long time kind

910
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 1: of jill. So he's pretty funny. But I think all

911
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: the tiny end rules, I'm probably the most jokester one

912
00:49:55,200 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 1: they're there. But yeah, well, uh, tell me about your

913
00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 1: time in Oregon and what was your favorite uniform combo,

914
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:08,240
Speaker 1: because you guys had something different every week. Man Oregon

915
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,439
Speaker 1: was awesome. I remember our first my first game there.

916
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: It was like one when we got dressed with Freshman.

917
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: It was like going into like a Dick store and

918
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,840
Speaker 1: just everything Nike you can think of, from like wrist

919
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 1: bands to sleeves to every kind of club and it

920
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 1: was like a buffet line, like all the wrist bands

921
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: and different colors was here. And then it was like

922
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: a picture in the mannequin of like it'd be like

923
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 1: you gotta wear this color, sensories, this color thing. So

924
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: everything was like color coordinated. But they had every kind

925
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: of band, and I remember we got we walked out

926
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 1: of there like all the series was like laughing, like

927
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 1: we had every rist band that was on the thing,

928
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: Like I probably had like five wrist bands going down,

929
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: one obviously down. So that was awesome. But I think

930
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 1: my favorite combo was when we with the throwbacks, the

931
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: UOL throwbacks, the old ones that a Keilly Smith and

932
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: those guys were with the UO. It was just cools,

933
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 1: just having to those old throwbacks. I mean we had

934
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 1: some pretty cools, but that was probably my favorite. Yeah,

935
00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: those late nineties ones are pretty classic. That's a good choice.

936
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 1: I like that too. All right. What are some songs

937
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 1: you listened to before a game? You have a set

938
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,319
Speaker 1: last year, you mix it up. I don't gotta set list.

939
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm like a big energy guy. I'm a kind of

940
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 1: different old game days. Like just depending on how I

941
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 1: wake up, I can be having some rap pop go

942
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 1: old school. Sometimes I just gotta like calm myself down,

943
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 1: you know, and just make sure I'm still calm and

944
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 1: don't get like over anxious. But uh, I mean it

945
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: literally changes. So vide I was talking to somebody, Yes,

946
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 1: I was like, man, it's crazy because I can listen

947
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: to country music, DM pop, hip hop. Like I listened

948
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: to literally all types of music. So, I mean it's

949
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: past game. What was I listening to? I was listening

950
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: to more like R and bat this pass game. But yeah,

951
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: some of my favorites is like, uh I like Ari

Speaker 1: she's she's She was a big deal pop culturally, and

972
00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 1: we definitely gotta go James Jim Brown. He's a stud YEP.

973
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 1: I think I did it. I didn't realize like the

00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: man of stuff he did, because like playing for the Browns,

975
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 1: Jim was just always dear. She'd be like, what's up,

976
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 1: and it was just like, you know, Jim was always around,

Speaker 1: everybody was like they gotta get a picture with Jim Brown.

982
00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 1: And then he like just t was like man like

983
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: he changed a lot of stuff, like politically just but

984
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: like the cold churches everything, And I was like, man,

00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,839
Speaker 1: they were he changed a lot of stuff, but uh

989
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 1: so he would definitely be number one. Okay, who else

990
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:11,720
Speaker 1: is it? Got James Brown, the Godfather's Soul, Charlie Brown,

991
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,080

993
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: my dad he always said that Jim Brown's the greatest

994
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,800
Speaker 1: pro football player he ever saw, like, not even close.

995
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: And then he was also evidently before he did football,

996
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,719
Speaker 1: he also played lacrosse at Syracuse and it's like an

997

Speaker 1: All American at lacrosse. So he was just yeah, he

998
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 1: was amazing. And then, like you said, culturally he changed

999
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: a lot of things. He acted in movies. Yeah, he

1000
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 1: was an all around talent? Is it all around talent? Okay,

1001
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: if you could switch roles with any athlete right now

1002
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: and you could play one game in their shoes, in

1003
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 1: their body, who would it be? Hm, any athlete? I'll

1004
00:54:55,560 --> 00:55:01,719

1010
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,759
Speaker 1: in Madrid for a semester back in college, and so

1011
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 1: that became my team. Yeah, that's that's cool. I like

1012
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 1: Real Madrid not Bad. All right, what would you be

1013
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 1: doing if you were not a football player right now

1014
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: as a job or Yeah, like as a career, what

1015
00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:37,360
Speaker 1: do you think you would have a career. Yeah, so

1016
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 1: I went to school for advertising and uh did a

1017
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: bunch of on camera stuff. I think I'd probably be

1018
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: either coaching head coaching condition somewhere or want somebody's TV

1019
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: screen commentated, uh call the game something like something around

1020
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,759
Speaker 1: those or something around the game. I think I, uh,

1021
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: if I couldn't play, I would definitely be uh around

1022
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,440
Speaker 1: the game and short sort of passion that way. All right,

1023
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: Last those are good, Yeah, those are good, good options.

1024
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: I like them, all right. Last two favorite Christmas song

1025
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 1: of all time? Oh Christmas song probably this Christmas This

1026
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: Chris is Chris Man. They go on to this, so

1027
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: oh yeah, Chris Brown version. I think as also you

1028
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,839
Speaker 1: gotta do to Chris Brown version. Yeah, Chris Brown version.

1029
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 1: It is okay. And then the final one is what

1030
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 1: is the best Christmas gift? You ever got? The best

1031
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: Christmas gift? M hm. Honestly probably as a kid. As

1032
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 1: I've gotten older, you know, Christmas is more just like

1033
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,440
Speaker 1: family time and just giving back to others. I mean

1034
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: we're in we're in a position to where we kind

1035
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 1: of have everything that we have, so it's more not

1036
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:58,439
Speaker 1: materialistic is more for me just family and just giving

1037
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:01,600
Speaker 1: it back. Like I told my whatever I talk like

1038
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 1: my son, he'll need a thousand gifts on Christmas. Like

1039
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 1: it's more just cherishing, being grateful and things of that nature.

1040
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: But probably as a kid, my mom used to like,

1041
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 1: I remember I wanted like this truck, this more control truck.

1042
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: But my mom would like, gag if you, Like she

1043
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 1: had like wrap up a whole gift. That wasn't it.

1044
00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 1: And then I remember I was like so mad, and

1045
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,920
Speaker 1: then I opened the gift. It wasn't it, And then

1046
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 1: she ended up did having it for me. But I

1047
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 1: probably do like a big tantrum and stuff. It was

1048
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:37,960
Speaker 1: like those Hummer patrol cars. So my mom used to

1049
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 1: really joke on Christmas all the time. I remember my

1050
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 1: sister on like us and she put like some fake shoes,

1051
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: some other shoes in there and stuff. So you'll find

1052
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 1: that more control car. But as I got an older,

1053
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 1: I'm not a big materialistic guy. So it's not like

1054
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 1: gifts that I look for. It's more like on Christmas

1055
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 1: time for it. Like I actually sponsored just like families

1056
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: that's uh, families that doesn't have much. I basically go

1057
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 1: fund the Christmas. So they do a Christmas list and

1058
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 1: go get them to Christmas of necessities and stuff that

1059
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 1: they need from underprivileged areas and stuff like that. So

1060
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 1: that's more like Christmas to me. And then I just

1061
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 1: look forward. We do a big seafood world Wow Christmas,

1062
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: a bunch of crab legs, lobster tails, anything from the

1063
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: sea you can think of. So I kind of just

1064
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: look forward to that Christmas dinner and just give it back.

1065
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,960

00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 1: It's given to them. It's a gift for me. It

1072
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,120

01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 1: Why you live in Houston? Why you also live in Houston?

1105
01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:09,320
Speaker 1: Is a cheer for this football team on Sunday against

1106
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:13,840
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Cults and the Texans a three point favorite. Now,

1107
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 1: I've seen in some places that moved to three and

1108
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 1: a half. The Colts are favorites. But I don't the

1109
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:21,640
Speaker 1: number would go up with no fuller, No Robie, I

1110
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 1: got the number would definitely go up. Didn't move three

1111
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 1: to three and a half. It's about benin what it is.

1112
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 1: I never picked that game because I want to go

1113
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 1: gets my heart, my head. I don't do that, but

1114
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,280
Speaker 1: I pick everything else. So let's get it going. But

1115
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:39,320
Speaker 1: I need my music, please, I always need my music.

1116
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 1: It gets me hyped. This segment in there. It is

1117
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 1: NFL films. Music gets me hyped. Yes, some people have

1118
01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 1: said is a deal closed in music? No, but it

1119
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 1: gets me hyped, and it gets me hyped right now

1120
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: to do the predictions, Okay, I'm gonna do one extra thing.

1121
01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give the win. I'm gonna obviously pick straight

1122
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 1: up against the spread, but I'm also gonna give you

1123
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: what we want as Texans fans to have happened death

1124
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 1: for the hell of it. There. Look, Look, they're four

1125
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:13,960
Speaker 1: and seven and the number twelve team in the in

1126
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 1: the AFC right now. But I think if I if

1127
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 1: I remember correctly, then if they win and the Patriots lose,

1128
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: they move up to number nine. I think it's kind

1129
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,880
Speaker 1: of crazy to think about it. Anyway, I've heard Landry

1130
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,520
Speaker 1: do this and later, and I've talked about the segment.

1131
01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: He really likes for me to do this segment, and

1132
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 1: I love doing it. He always adds in, what do

1133
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 1: we want to have happened? So we'll try and figure

1134
01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 1: that out as we go. Some of these won't matter,

1135
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 1: you think I'm going. I don't know. I don't think

1136
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,520
Speaker 1: this matters, so we'll pass on, but there'll be somewhere

1137
01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:51,680
Speaker 1: will go. Hey, let's cheer for the Bengals against the Dolphins.

1138
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:52,920
Speaker 1: We'll get to that one a little bit, but we're

1139
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:56,320
Speaker 1: gonna start with an NFC South battle with the Saints

1140
01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 1: and the Falcons. I don't know if there's anything there

1141
01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: that we really want to have happened. I do, well,

1142
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 1: let's take it back. We want the Falcons to win.

1143
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,920
Speaker 1: Here's why the Falcons have Rahem Morris right now is

1144
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:13,640
Speaker 1: interim head coach. If the Falcons continue to win, there's

1145
01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 1: been some talk that maybe the Falcons will entertain keeping

1146
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris as the head coach. Has been a head

1147
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 1: coach before. He's head coach and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,

1148
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 1: and maybe it was the thought that Raheemorris could end

1149
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 1: up getting that job if he continues to do well.

1150
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,800
Speaker 1: And he's done pretty well. What the Falcons already they've

1151
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: gotten four wins under his leadership. So if they continue

1152
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 1: to win, does Rhee Morris stay as head coach? Why

1153
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 1: does that matter? Well, it just takes one other team

1154
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:44,600
Speaker 1: out of the running for a potential head coach in

1155
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:49,480
Speaker 1: the offseason. So go Falcons. There are three point dog

1156
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: at home. I think the Saints come in and take

1157
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 1: care of business. Now. I don't think it'll be pretty.

1158
01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:58,960
Speaker 1: It hasn't been pretty with the Saints. I mean, the

1159
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 1: Saints be if the Broncos last week, Broncos didn't have

1160
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback and they won that game. I think thirty

1161
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 1: one to three. I think the Saints go into Atlanta

1162
01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: and get it done. But I think this one's actually

1163
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:12,720
Speaker 1: inside the three. I think it's like one or two

1164
01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 1: point game, and so I'm going Saints to get the win.

1165
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 1: That'll move them to ten and two. The Falcons will

1166
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,760
Speaker 1: fall to four and eight, but it's gonna be close,

1167
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 1: thirty five, thirty four, twenty eight, twenty seven, something along

1168
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 1: those lines. It's gonna be a one or two point

1169
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,520
Speaker 1: win for the Saints that gets the Falcons a cover.

1170
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 1: All right, Lions Bears, now we already know the fate

1171
01:04:35,640 --> 01:04:38,880
Speaker 1: of the Lions. At four and seven, Daryl Bebel takes

1172
01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 1: over as interim head coach. I don't think it happens.

1173
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't think I think Matt Nagy stays as the

1174
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:53,800
Speaker 1: head coach. But if the Rams completely go down the

1175
01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:58,439
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the Bears completely go down to drain. They're

1176
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,840
Speaker 1: five and six right now. They point where the number

1177
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:04,520
Speaker 1: one seed in the a NFC. That is not the

1178
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 1: case anymore. They're struggling. However, the Lions are the perfect tonic.

1179
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: They may play well for Daryl Bebel. I don't expect

1180
01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:17,840
Speaker 1: that the Bears are only at three point favorite at home.

1181
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 1: That speaks to Mitch Trubisky. It speaks to not having

1182
01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:24,360
Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in the Bears. But I think

1183
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 1: the Bears get it done twenty four seventeen. That will

1184
01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 1: cover the three Bears get it done. We already know

1185
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 1: the Lions and fired a GM and coach. They'll be

1186
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 1: in that mix. But a Lions win probably probably continues

1187
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 1: the Bears on a downward spiral. Maybe the Bears consider it.

1188
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:47,600
Speaker 1: So let's say, let's let the Bears win and they

1189
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,160
Speaker 1: will win twenty four seventeen. That gets into six and six.

1190
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:53,120
Speaker 1: They finish out the year ninety seven, eight and eight.

1191
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,480
Speaker 1: Maybe they lose to the Texans next week, which would

1192
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:58,040
Speaker 1: be really fun, and the Bears are like, well, we'll

1193
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,120
Speaker 1: get Matt Aggie one more year. That keeps them of

1194
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:04,439
Speaker 1: the running for a head coach. So Bears win, Bears cover,

1195
01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 1: and we want the Bears to win. Browns Titans probably

1196
01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:13,040
Speaker 1: the game of the early afternoon. Not mentioned is Colts

1197
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:16,960
Speaker 1: the Texas. This one takes place in Tennessee, Tennessee, coming

1198
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:23,400
Speaker 1: off that big win last week at Indianapolis. The Titans

1199
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 1: are favored by five and a half. I think the Titans,

1200
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 1: even though the Browns are getting back, Miles Garrett, I

1201
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:32,320
Speaker 1: think the Titans are going to house the Browns again.

1202
01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 1: They did it in the opener in twenty nineteen. I

1203
01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:37,160
Speaker 1: think they're gonna do it again. I don't think the

1204
01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Browns can fully stop the Titans, and I do think

1205
01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 1: the Titans will find a way to slow down the

1206
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:47,720
Speaker 1: Browns running game. This gets high scoring, This gets third.

1207
01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:50,880
Speaker 1: If the weather holds, which it looks like it's supposed

1208
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 1: to natural, the Titans will win this thing. Forty two

1209
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:57,440
Speaker 1: twenty nine. That gets him a cover that drops the

1210
01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,440
Speaker 1: Browns to eight and four. It gets the Titans two,

1211
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:03,040
Speaker 1: nine and three. We'd like for the Titans to win

1212
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:06,200
Speaker 1: this one, trying to bring the Browns a back to

1213
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 1: the pack, b get the Titans removed even higher, or

1214
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 1: to move up even higher such that maybe that last

1215
01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:16,600
Speaker 1: game against the Titans will just be ready to mail

1216
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:18,400
Speaker 1: it in and the Texans will get a w in

1217
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:20,720
Speaker 1: that one. Now. I do think the Texans can beat

1218
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:23,040
Speaker 1: the Titans. They showed that at Nashville. But if the

1219
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:25,960
Speaker 1: Titans have already got the asc South locked up, then

1220
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 1: that week seventeen game, we'll see what happens, kind of

1221
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:34,800
Speaker 1: like last year in reverse. Okay, so Titans win, Titans cover.

1222
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,560
Speaker 1: We want the Titans to win. God can't put them

1223
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:42,200
Speaker 1: saying what they did. Anyways, let's move on down in Miami,

1224
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 1: another noon kick. The Bengals are taken on the Dolphins. Now,

1225
01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:50,120
Speaker 1: right off the bat, we want the Bengals to win

1226
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 1: point blank and the story it won't happen, though. The

1227
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,720
Speaker 1: Dolphins are gonna get this win, however, going to be ugly.

1228
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:08,160
Speaker 1: They're favored by eleven. I think Brandon Allen, playing quarterback

1229
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:11,440
Speaker 1: for the Bengals, can keep this thing under eleven. It's

1230
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:14,400
Speaker 1: gonna be a fairly comfortable win for the Dolphins. I'm

1231
01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:18,240
Speaker 1: thinking ten points. I think it's twenty seven seventeen, something

1232
01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:22,200
Speaker 1: of that nature. Dolphins won't score ton, but they'll win

1233
01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:26,840
Speaker 1: this thing by a ten or less. So give Cincinnati

1234
01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:31,600
Speaker 1: the cover, give Miami the win, and we want the

1235
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:36,320
Speaker 1: Bengals to win. But that's not gonna happen, Bengals lose,

1236
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 1: Dolphins win, Bengals do cover. Though, that's good days, all right.

1237
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 1: Jaguar's taken on the Vikings in Minnesota. The Jags wonted ten. Now,

1238
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: we really would like the Jags to win this one.

1239
01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:56,360
Speaker 1: We want the Jags to be as far removed from

1240
01:08:56,439 --> 01:09:00,519
Speaker 1: the top two three picks as possible. They've got those

1241
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 1: on lock right now. Jets one, Jags two. Now, everybody

1242
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:06,880
Speaker 1: saw it coming with the Jags this year, and I

1243
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,519
Speaker 1: think everybody saw it coming with the Jets. But if

1244
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 1: we can get the Jags a couple more wins down

1245
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,160
Speaker 1: the stretch and then we can get one of these

1246
01:09:14,200 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: other teams, maybe from the NFC East, to flame out,

1247
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:19,640
Speaker 1: then we can get the Jags out of one of

1248
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,639
Speaker 1: those top two picks. They get a top five pick,

1249
01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:25,680
Speaker 1: but it's not justin Fields or Trevor Lawrence, and we

1250
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:30,200
Speaker 1: can breathe a side relief. Potentially. The problem is Jacksonville

1251
01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 1: is gonna get housed by Minnesota, and Minnesota's favored by ten.

1252
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:36,000
Speaker 1: I think the Vikings cover that they're getting at him

1253
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,639
Speaker 1: feeling back off a COVID list. I think the Vikings

1254
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,599
Speaker 1: win this by two touchdowns. Let's call it thirty five

1255
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: twenty one. Mike Glennon has faced the Vikings, he's seen

1256
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,240
Speaker 1: them before, but that's not gonna matter. The Vikings win

1257
01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 1: by fourteen. They cover that ten point spread, even though

1258
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:58,000
Speaker 1: we want the Jags to win to remove themselves from

1259
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:01,120
Speaker 1: the potential number one pick in the draft. Speaking of

1260
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 1: the number one pick, let's go to the meadow Lands,

1261
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,639
Speaker 1: where the Raiders are taking on the Jets. The Jets

1262
01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:13,200
Speaker 1: are one eleven, the Raiders six and five. Now, this

1263
01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 1: one's hard to figure out who we want to win,

1264
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 1: because we'd like to see the Raiders get upset to

1265
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:22,800
Speaker 1: follow six and six, But we really don't want the

1266
01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:25,439
Speaker 1: Jets and the Jags to be vying for that number

1267
01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:28,000
Speaker 1: one pick. We don't want the Jets to stumble into

1268
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:31,800
Speaker 1: a w down the road. Move the Jags to number one,

1269
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:33,719
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you gotta face Trevor Lawrence

1270
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 1: twice a year. I think going forward, let's just cheer

1271
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:45,120
Speaker 1: for the Jets. The Raiders are gonna win this one anyways.

1272
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:48,760
Speaker 1: They're favored by eight and a half. If my eyes

1273
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 1: don't deceive me, I think the Raiders will cover that.

1274
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:53,519
Speaker 1: I think the Raiders will win by ten. I think

1275
01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:56,200
Speaker 1: the offense will get back on track. Last week was

1276
01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,880
Speaker 1: a complete nightmare. Now they played an East Coast game,

1277
01:11:00,720 --> 01:11:03,200
Speaker 1: had a ton of turnovers against Atlanta. I don't think

1278
01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 1: the Jets can create those turnovers, and that's gonna be

1279
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,639
Speaker 1: the difference. I think the Raiders. We'll get the offense

1280
01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:11,639
Speaker 1: back on track, get a dub, and get to cover

1281
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:15,720
Speaker 1: on the road. Jets fall to o and twelve. So

1282
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:19,080
Speaker 1: we're cheering Raiders and we're getting the Raiders to win

1283
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:21,400
Speaker 1: and to cover. All right. I talked about the Colts.

1284
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 1: Texans never picked against my heart. In my head, the

1285
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:27,160
Speaker 1: Colts are three point favorite. It's kind of interesting because

1286
01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:30,240
Speaker 1: it's two teams with one with seven four record, one

1287
01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:32,880
Speaker 1: with a four and seven records, three point difference. That's it.

1288
01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 1: Rams take on the Cardinals in the first afternoon game.

1289
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 1: The Cardinals are six and five. The Cardinals had every

1290
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:43,960
Speaker 1: opportunity to win that game at New England and blew it.

1291
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray was not healthy, but Zane Gonzalez missed the

1292
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 1: fuel goal gave the Patriots great fuel position. The fourth quarter,

1293
01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:52,600
Speaker 1: Cam Newton made a couple of plays got him in

1294
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 1: close enough. This since Nick Folk knocked at home and

1295
01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,840
Speaker 1: the Cardinals fell to six and five. As I said

1296
01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 1: to Mark Vander Mary, where we talk about this, the

1297
01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:06,920
Speaker 1: Cardinals without that hill Mary at five and six. I mean,

1298
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:10,360
Speaker 1: I know they're kind of the the flavored de jure,

1299
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: but right another six and five, they're one game behind

1300
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:19,559
Speaker 1: the Rams. Rams are seven and four and the Seahawks

1301
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,280
Speaker 1: are eight and three. I don't know if there's any

1302
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:23,960
Speaker 1: rooting interest in this one, to be honest with you,

1303
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,200
Speaker 1: so I'm not gonna worry about that. But the Rams

1304
01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: are a three point favorite at Arizona. Let's gets kind

1305
01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:34,479
Speaker 1: of interesting because that game is on Sunday, and then

1306
01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:36,639
Speaker 1: well we'll get to the Monday night thing in a second.

1307
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Rams. They're gonna bounce back.

1308
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:42,880
Speaker 1: They had a tough loss of forty nine ers last week.

1309
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 1: Sean McVay usually doesn't lose back to back games. So

1310
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,760
Speaker 1: let's go Rams to get a win and get the

1311
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:52,120
Speaker 1: cover at Arizona. Drops Arizona in six and six. Rams

1312
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,320
Speaker 1: go to eight and four and keep the NFC West

1313
01:12:55,760 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 1: title in its sights. Speaking of division titles, two division

1314
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:09,280
Speaker 1: leaders match up in Seattle on Sunday, and I chuckle, because, well,

1315
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:10,760
Speaker 1: the first one is the Seahawks, and you know that

1316
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:14,960
Speaker 1: Seahawks are eight and three. The other, the New York

1317
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:19,639
Speaker 1: Football Giants, are four and seven. Yet atop the division,

1318
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:22,439
Speaker 1: Seattle's favored by eleven. I don't think we have a

1319
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 1: dog in this fight. I'd like to see the Seahawks win.

1320
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of the Giants coaching staff.

1321
01:13:31,160 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 1: I don't think so I'm going I want the Seahawks

1322
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,240
Speaker 1: to win. I think the Seahawks will win, and I

1323
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 1: believe they'll cover that eleven point spread. This feels like,

1324
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 1: you know, Danner and Jones are gonna try and give

1325
01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:43,160
Speaker 1: it a go, but I don't think they're gonna move

1326
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:44,600
Speaker 1: the ball at all. I think this is gonna be

1327
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:49,640
Speaker 1: twenty seven to ten Seahawks over the Giants. Giants fall

1328
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 1: to four and eight, and then they'll have to be

1329
01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 1: scoreboard watching to see what happens to them in the

1330
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 1: NFC East race. But the Seahawks win, go to nine

1331
01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:05,080
Speaker 1: at three stay atop the NFC West. Another NFC East contender, yeah,

1332
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:07,719
Speaker 1: I guess taken on the Green Bay Packers. That would

1333
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:12,160
Speaker 1: be the Philadelphia Eagles in Green Bay last year, Philadelphia

1334
01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,120
Speaker 1: Eagles won this game on a Monday night. I don't

1335
01:14:15,160 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 1: see it happen in this year. The Eagles are three,

1336
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:21,360
Speaker 1: seven and one. Carson Wentz's confidence is shaken. The Packers

1337
01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:25,679
Speaker 1: kind of up and down at points, but when Aaron

1338
01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers in a groove at eight and three, I would

1339
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 1: not want to face those jokers in the playoffs at all.

1340
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:33,720
Speaker 1: Packers are favored by eight and a half. I think

1341
01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:36,160
Speaker 1: that's too little. I think the Packers get a measure

1342
01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:38,480
Speaker 1: of revenge. I think they win this thing by thirteen.

1343
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm going twenty nine sixteen Packers at Lambeau over the Eagles.

1344
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:46,599
Speaker 1: I don't think we have a dog in a fight.

1345
01:14:46,760 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 1: But Matt Lafloor used to be a quality control assistant

1346
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:54,559
Speaker 1: for the Houston Texas. So let's go with the Packers.

1347
01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:56,400
Speaker 1: We only went the Packers to win. And plus I

1348
01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:58,600
Speaker 1: was born Marriott, Wisconsin, hour north. So there you go.

1349
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,000
Speaker 1: One day afternoons, Patriots go to the Chargers. Justin Herbert

1350
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 1: taken on the New England Patriots. It's the second trip

1351
01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 1: to take on an AFC East foe. Last week is Buffalo,

1352
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 1: and the Chargers could not have boxed the end of

1353
01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:19,200
Speaker 1: that game any worse now. It was gonna be a

1354
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,720
Speaker 1: minor miracle to get a win, but they were down

1355
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 1: ten through it deep caught it, got within the five,

1356
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,439
Speaker 1: and they let the clock instead of Justin Herbert trying

1357
01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:34,040
Speaker 1: to sneak it, spike it, kick the field goal go on.

1358
01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 1: It's like kick. They didn't even get any of that.

1359
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,960
Speaker 1: They didn't lose them by ten. The Patriots, they're gonna

1360
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:41,080
Speaker 1: have a plan for Justin Herbert. I think it's gonna

1361
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:43,439
Speaker 1: be the one game that Herbert struggles. There is no

1362
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:47,840
Speaker 1: line on this game. I think Patriots win it. We'd

1363
01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,560
Speaker 1: like to see the Chargers win, get the Patriots that

1364
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,599
Speaker 1: you know what out, but I don't think that's gonna happen.

1365
01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:55,400
Speaker 1: I think the Patriots are gonna win this game. They're

1366
01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:57,320
Speaker 1: gonna beat up on poor Justin for a little bit.

1367
01:15:57,439 --> 01:15:59,240
Speaker 1: He'll get some of the end, but the Patriots are

1368
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:02,560
Speaker 1: gonna win this thing a touchdown. Then Sunday night, le

1369
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:06,920
Speaker 1: Broncos with their quarterbacks, but it doesn't matter. Go to

1370
01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:09,400
Speaker 1: Kansas City take on the Chiefs, and Chiefs ten and

1371
01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:12,840
Speaker 1: one after that win at Tampa Bay last week, Kansas

1372
01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 1: City's a thirteen and a half point favorite. That's not

1373
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 1: even enough. They'll win this thing by seventeen forty one,

1374
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:22,280
Speaker 1: twenty four and to cover that thirteen and a half.

1375
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,639
Speaker 1: I think we want the Chiefs to win might as well.

1376
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,880
Speaker 1: I guess I don't. I mean, I don't want the

1377
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:30,640
Speaker 1: Broncos to get the five and seven. It's let the

1378
01:16:30,640 --> 01:16:33,240
Speaker 1: Broncos kind of fade away, if you will. Chiefs are

1379
01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 1: gonna get the win anyway, so I don't think it matters.

1380
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 1: All right, Monday afternoon, four o'clock local time, right here

1381
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,839
Speaker 1: in Houston, the Washington football team taking on the Steelers

1382
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:45,639
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh's favorite by seven. I don't think that's enough.

1383
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:47,600
Speaker 1: This won't be a high scoring game. It will be

1384
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:52,639
Speaker 1: like twenty three to nine, twenty two, you know, eleven,

1385
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 1: something like that. Pittsburgh's uncover that they're gonna win by

1386
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:58,920
Speaker 1: more than seven, but it's not gonna be much more

1387
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:00,519
Speaker 1: than that. But the Steelers get the wind, will stand

1388
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:05,160
Speaker 1: defeated twelve and zero as the first place Washington football

1389
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 1: team falls and falls to four and eight. Monday night,

1390
01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:12,240
Speaker 1: the Bills take on the forty nine Ers. The Bills

1391
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:15,000
Speaker 1: are going back to the scene of the crime with

1392
01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 1: the hail Mary Hail Murray from Kyler Murray to DeAndre

1393
01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 1: Hopkins because they're playing this game in Arizona's stadium because

1394
01:17:25,160 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers cannot play in Santa Clara County.

1395
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:30,680
Speaker 1: The forty nine Ers of five and six after an

1396
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:35,120
Speaker 1: upset win, and the Bills are eight and three. This

1397
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:39,479
Speaker 1: is even. That's interesting. This is a totally neutral sight.

1398
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:42,320
Speaker 1: It's closer to San Francisco than it is Buffalo. I

1399
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 1: think Buffalo is gonna go get a win. I think

1400
01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:45,960
Speaker 1: they're gonna get a little bit of retribution for that.

1401
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:48,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna go get a win. And it's even. So

1402
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,439
Speaker 1: there you go, Yeah, we don't care. Let the Bills win,

1403
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:57,160
Speaker 1: that's fine. Cowboys Ravens Tuesday Evening, Cowboys three and eight,

1404
01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,280
Speaker 1: Ravens six and five. We'd like for the Cowboys to win.

1405
01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 1: And I can't believe it said that out lout, but

1406
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,320
Speaker 1: we want the Cowboys to win. But Baltimore's favored by

1407
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:08,600
Speaker 1: seven half, so a Cowboys aren't winning. B I do

1408
01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:11,719
Speaker 1: think the Cowboys might get a cover, but they won't.

1409
01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: The Ravens will win this thing by ten to fourteen.

1410
01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:18,240
Speaker 1: Take the Ravens to win. Take the Ravens to cover

1411
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:20,760
Speaker 1: even though we want the Cowboys to win. All right,

1412
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 1: those are my predictions for this week we get back.

1413
01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:27,479
Speaker 1: It's Drew's final Word with Duke Johnson right here in

1414
01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:32,559
Speaker 1: Texans All Access Boccess BOCSS. We go on to final

1415
01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:35,639
Speaker 1: a segment of this Friday edition of Texans All Access.

1416
01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Harris, Football Analyston South On Reporter

1417
01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 1: and it's time for Drew's final word, and this week

1418
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:46,160
Speaker 1: it is with the Duke himself, the Duke of Houston,

1419
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:49,400
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson. Drew take it away. Time now to talk

1420
01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:52,080
Speaker 1: with running back at Duke Johnson. Duke, It's always great

1421
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:56,160
Speaker 1: to see you, and let's talk first about the team mood.

1422
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 1: Riding the two game win streak. How are things in

1423
01:18:58,960 --> 01:19:00,640
Speaker 1: the locker room after what you guys have done the

1424
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,000
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. Things are great. You know, you

1425
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 1: just got to keep stacking game. That's the biggest thing.

1426
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:07,720
Speaker 1: We're on a two game winnistry, like you said, but

1427
01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:10,320
Speaker 1: the most important one is the next one. So we're

1428
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:13,080
Speaker 1: moving forward to the page and trying to keep it doing. Yeah,

1429
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,040
Speaker 1: and what's the mood like when you lose a big

1430
01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:17,160
Speaker 1: player like Will Fuller, you lose a big player like

1431
01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:20,439
Speaker 1: Bradley Roby. It's the NFL. You've been around, next man up,

1432
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:22,479
Speaker 1: that type of thing. But what is the mood when

1433
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 1: you lose somebody and those guys like that, Well, from

1434
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,479
Speaker 1: my perspective, I think it's it's tough losing two guys

1435
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,320
Speaker 1: like that, great dudes, good players, just I mean, quite

1436
01:19:32,360 --> 01:19:34,880
Speaker 1: a bast situation. I don't wish nothing but the best

1437
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:38,160
Speaker 1: whatever the future host, but we would definitely miss something

1438
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:40,000
Speaker 1: having a round this sh in a locker room on

1439
01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 1: fail just being great guys in general. But like you said,

1440
01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 1: it's the next man now, and I think we have

1441
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:46,519
Speaker 1: to focus on that and the guy that'll be ready

1442
01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:49,639
Speaker 1: to step off with more reps, different legs, just doing

1443
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 1: different things they haven't done in the past. But don't

1444
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,040
Speaker 1: whatever team needs. Yeah, you just said it. Romeo Cornell

1445
01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:57,200
Speaker 1: said it earlier in the week. He said, you don't

1446
01:19:57,240 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 1: just plug a guy in to replace a player like that.

1447
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:02,680
Speaker 1: You got guys all over the offense, guys all over

1448
01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:04,680
Speaker 1: the defense. You've got to pick up their end of

1449
01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:07,240
Speaker 1: the bargain. You are in that group. You got to

1450
01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:09,280
Speaker 1: be encouraged by what you did in the last game. Though,

1451
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 1: twelve touches eighty yards, just score. What do you think

1452
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 1: and how encouraged are you by what you did then

1453
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:16,599
Speaker 1: and what you might do the rest of the way.

1454
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm always encouraged. I just knowing that made the plays.

1455
01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:22,080
Speaker 1: I tell myself game in the game out, regardless of

1456
01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:25,400
Speaker 1: how many reps, how many touches, whatever it is, whether

1457
01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:29,080
Speaker 1: there's a block, catch or run, whatever it is, when

1458
01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 1: my number is called, I have to make the play

1459
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:33,000
Speaker 1: for the stake of the team. Yeah, we're gonna talk

1460
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:35,400
Speaker 1: about that touchdown catch in a moment, but you just

1461
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 1: said block, and I want to rewind two weeks. You

1462
01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:40,000
Speaker 1: know you're taking all the Patriots and it was the

1463
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 1: touchdown pass to Kikiqt. You absolutely shook that guy that

1464
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,240
Speaker 1: was coming for Watson. How fun is it when you

1465
01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:50,640
Speaker 1: make a block like that? It's about making plays, and

1466
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:53,120
Speaker 1: I think it's a big deal for me, just knowing

1467
01:20:53,680 --> 01:20:57,320
Speaker 1: my kind of scale set and just knowing the pass

1468
01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 1: catching and running back. I try to be or to

1469
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:00,960
Speaker 1: be seeing the back out, trying to be that most

1470
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:02,960
Speaker 1: teams are gonna be list me to make sure I

1471
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,080
Speaker 1: don't get out because I don't get into defense that

1472
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't have opportunities to get down feel to make

1473
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:10,960
Speaker 1: plays in the passing game, and when that time come,

1474
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 1: I had to do my best to protect the sean

1475
01:21:13,080 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 1: and I think it's a proud thing and just trying

1476
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:17,919
Speaker 1: to out physically and next guy or use your technique

1477
01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 1: of be smart because you're not gonna win every battle

1478
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:23,560
Speaker 1: or I'm not the biggest of the bunch. I'm not

1479
01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:25,640
Speaker 1: bigger than the guys out block. I just try to

1480
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:27,599
Speaker 1: find ways just to get the job done, whether it's

1481
01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,360
Speaker 1: pretty or not. You're great at throwing a pass backwards.

1482
01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 1: When are we gonna see you throw a forward pass?

1483
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:37,120
Speaker 1: Good luck? Good luck? Luck? Yeah, good luck? You probably won't.

1484
01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:40,879
Speaker 1: You're trying to definitely through war bass. Let's we're pranktice.

1485
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 1: Just throw the ball. But those shots. Hey man, we

1486
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,599
Speaker 1: heard from the shawan his version of the touchdown. Tell

1487
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,479
Speaker 1: us yours what was that like? Go from the play

1488
01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:52,840
Speaker 1: call in the huddle to when fuller cross is the

1489
01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:55,200
Speaker 1: goal on? Okay? So the play call in the huddle

1490
01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 1: was basically a flee flicker in the sense. And before

1491
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:01,760
Speaker 1: we at the hood, I told the sean that if

1492
01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:04,720
Speaker 1: the guy comes up enought edge that I'm gonna keep

1493
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,000
Speaker 1: the ball because we have no one to block him

1494
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:09,320
Speaker 1: because we think that he's gonna go to the quarterback

1495
01:22:09,400 --> 01:22:11,320
Speaker 1: and there's nowhere be able to get the ball and

1496
01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 1: flick it back to him. And that's kind of what

1497
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:16,080
Speaker 1: happened until we read I ran the ball, tried to

1498
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,840
Speaker 1: get outside, I couldn't really get outside. And de Shan

1499
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:22,120
Speaker 1: makes a noise that he makes in practice when either

1500
01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 1: he want to get when he was to get your attention,

1501
01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:25,479
Speaker 1: so he said, we want to get your attention, he

1502
01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:28,000
Speaker 1: made a noise and he made it. If you go

1503
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:30,479
Speaker 1: back and listen to the TV copy or the copy

1504
01:22:30,479 --> 01:22:33,439
Speaker 1: of the plate, you can hear him. And he made

1505
01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:35,519
Speaker 1: the noise. The moment he made the noise, I knew

1506
01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:37,120
Speaker 1: we had a chance to throw it back. And we

1507
01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 1: threw it back and will Food was uncovered and he scores.

1508
01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 1: How long did it take you into Sean and maybe

1509
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:46,760
Speaker 1: the rest of your teammates and de Sean to kind

1510
01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:48,360
Speaker 1: of get on that same page when you say he

1511
01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:51,599
Speaker 1: made that noise, because that's that's a pretty specific thing

1512
01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:54,360
Speaker 1: and that doesn't just come when you you guys start

1513
01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 1: playing right off the bat, does it? Yeah? I don't

1514
01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:58,960
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think the team is on

1515
01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:01,280
Speaker 1: that same page to show with that noise, it's just

1516
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:04,960
Speaker 1: a it's a reaction. I trusted that he was open

1517
01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:08,280
Speaker 1: and just threw the ball back to him. So it

1518
01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 1: was I think it was just a in a moment

1519
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:13,560
Speaker 1: kind of play, just trusting and hundreds in. Okay, I

1520
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 1: trust you about most things. I don't trust you though,

1521
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:17,720
Speaker 1: when you say you can't throw a forward pass, I

1522
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:20,479
Speaker 1: bet that's not what I said. You ask me what

1523
01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:23,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throwing forward? I probably won't. I never I

1524
01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,920
Speaker 1: couldn't because I could, I just probably won't. There we go.

1525
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 1: That's a little bit more revealing. I like that. All right,

1526
01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:31,000
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this game that's in front of you.

1527
01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:34,040
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts come to town. They come to town after

1528
01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:36,639
Speaker 1: getting forty some points. What on them? But you guys

1529
01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 1: know that defense can play. What do you see from

1530
01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:42,080
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis front seven? I think the biggest thing I've

1531
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:44,920
Speaker 1: seen from them since I've been here, or even going

1532
01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:48,040
Speaker 1: back to the last year's they're a very discipline team.

1533
01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:51,120
Speaker 1: They trust each other well, from the front seven to

1534
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 1: the dbs. If they tell a guy to play a

1535
01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: gap and stay tight and I'm gonna fail off of

1536
01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:59,720
Speaker 1: you the detail go to Indiana is going to do that,

1537
01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:02,040
Speaker 1: to do what they're supposed to do because they believe

1538
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:05,040
Speaker 1: in trusting each other and that last game is no

1539
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:08,360
Speaker 1: is no kind of it's not what we're looking at.

1540
01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:10,800
Speaker 1: When we look at that team. We know that they're

1541
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 1: a better team and a better defense than what they

1542
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,760
Speaker 1: show and we gotta be ready to play. Yeah, I

1543
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,240
Speaker 1: mean it's the NFL. Sometimes one team is off a

1544
01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:20,880
Speaker 1: little bit, another team is on and hits their plays

1545
01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:22,800
Speaker 1: and you know, stuff gets out of out of hand.

1546
01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:25,880
Speaker 1: All right, How rugged are these AFC South games you've

1547
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:28,760
Speaker 1: been a part of the last two years to that

1548
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,920
Speaker 1: definitely tough. Is it's gonna be a grinder's game. Everything

1549
01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 1: won't be pretty. May not have a lot of big

1550
01:24:36,240 --> 01:24:39,160
Speaker 1: expposed to plays, but again when you have plays, were

1551
01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 1: gonna make them because you may not have a lot

1552
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 1: from a defense that you know that plays well together

1553
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 1: and plays very discipline and responsible. So again, for me,

1554
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,800
Speaker 1: it's about making the plays, whether it's like I said,

1555
01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:54,120
Speaker 1: a block, d catch or run, made the play, make

1556
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:56,160
Speaker 1: the best of every opportunity to get. It's a fun

1557
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 1: Sunday because it's my cause my cleans tell us about

1558
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 1: the shoes. You're gonna be worning cause will always be well,

1559
01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:03,960
Speaker 1: not always for the most part. For the last I

1560
01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:06,640
Speaker 1: love six years. I've been leaving for six years, for

1561
01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:09,000
Speaker 1: the last six years, and I think they've been angry management.

1562
01:25:09,200 --> 01:25:11,640
Speaker 1: My thought pross behind it is just that's something that

1563
01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 1: I deal with a lot on off the field, and

1564
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:19,519
Speaker 1: I think that we as people kind of shy away

1565
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 1: from seeking treatment and seeking help when needed. I think

1566
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,920
Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with saying someone about it because at

1567
01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:27,320
Speaker 1: the end of the day, it makes you a better person.

1568
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of people get caught in

1569
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,800
Speaker 1: a lot of situations in life making one mistake because

1570
01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:35,360
Speaker 1: they got upset or they got angry, and they cost

1571
01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:37,479
Speaker 1: them their life, or it cost them their freedom and

1572
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:40,640
Speaker 1: it cost them a lot. So again me taking the

1573
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:43,880
Speaker 1: day by day and just stand focus and stand grounded

1574
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:47,080
Speaker 1: and trying to keep everything attack. I like that excellent cause,

1575
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 1: very worthy one to support and and show your support

1576
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:52,280
Speaker 1: for with my cause, my Cleatson. Last but not least,

1577
01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:54,920
Speaker 1: it's also battle red Sunday. Where do you stand on

1578
01:25:54,960 --> 01:25:57,400
Speaker 1: the battle red jerseys? You like them, you prefer a

1579
01:25:57,439 --> 01:26:00,280
Speaker 1: different color? What are your thoughts? I love them? Where

1580
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:05,040
Speaker 1: Ray cleaves and rag lives every game regardless of the uniform,

1581
01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,240
Speaker 1: so it all flow for me this week. It'll be

1582
01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:09,760
Speaker 1: perfect for me this week. I'll be already you heard

1583
01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:13,240
Speaker 1: it here first. Duke Johnson looking good, playing good. That's

1584
01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:15,559
Speaker 1: all gonna go down against the Indianapolis Colts. It's always

1585
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:17,439
Speaker 1: great to talk with you, Duke. And before we go,

1586
01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:19,800
Speaker 1: are you gonna watch The Grinch a few times in

1587
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:23,080
Speaker 1: between now and the game? I've watched it three times already,

1588
01:26:23,200 --> 01:26:26,080
Speaker 1: three times already. All right, tis the season. Merry Christmas

1589
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:27,800
Speaker 1: to you, Duke. Good luck the rest of the way,

1590
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 1: and can't wait to talk to you again very very soon.

1591
01:26:30,880 --> 01:26:36,800
Speaker 1: There is Duke Johnson a hugely valuable piece for this

1592
01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 1: offense on a Sunday, maybe even more so than he

1593
01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:44,599
Speaker 1: has been throughout the year. With the receivers i've mentioned,

1594
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:49,439
Speaker 1: no Stills, no Cob, no Fuller, I would imagine for

1595
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:51,439
Speaker 1: the rest of the year, but we'll know a little

1596
01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:53,800
Speaker 1: bit more. I guess about Randall Cobb. I'm not anticipating

1597
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:56,120
Speaker 1: him being out there. So you're without those three receivers

1598
01:26:56,160 --> 01:26:57,920
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year. Yeah, Brandon Cooks and

1599
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 1: Keith Qts, you're not lacking for explosive sickness. You got

1600
01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:05,040
Speaker 1: four really athletic tight ends, three that have been incredibly productive,

1601
01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:06,840
Speaker 1: and you're trying to get Collie wearing up the speed.

1602
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:11,080
Speaker 1: But the X factor to me becomes Duke Johnson A

1603
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:15,560
Speaker 1: dozen thirteen fourteen touches, you know, somewhere between twelve to

1604
01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:18,320
Speaker 1: fourteen touches I think is going to work and be

1605
01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:23,160
Speaker 1: the right and perfect tonic for this offense. And let's

1606
01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:26,840
Speaker 1: gear up, let's go. Let's take these guys on and

1607
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:29,799
Speaker 1: hit this big bully right in the face. They pride

1608
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:33,759
Speaker 1: themselves on being a team that is the more physical team.

1609
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:37,200
Speaker 1: They take it to you, they stuff it down your throat.

1610
01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:40,560
Speaker 1: They then go take the pictures after all the turnovers.

1611
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:44,160
Speaker 1: That's how they get it done. That's why it was

1612
01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 1: so great to beat them at our place last year.

1613
01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:50,120
Speaker 1: So let's repeat that on Sunday. Gonna be a good one.

1614
01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:52,639
Speaker 1: Got a lot of people will thank for tonight's show,
