1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: What has happened to everybody? Welcome to Texans fans. It's

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: a Wednesday edition of Texans All Access from Monday Texans

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: Radio Studio, and I'm your host, John Aris, football analyst,

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: sideline reporter, getting ready for a trip to Baltimore. Now,

5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: if you want to know exactly how those trips have

6
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 1: gone to Baltimore, there's really two words that come to mind.

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: Not well, my first trip to Baltimore for a game

8
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 1: agets the Raves is twenty seventeen Monday Night. Lost that

9
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: game by a touchdown. Okay, not bad. We went back

10
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: there two years later, lost forty one to seven. Went

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: back there in twenty twenty three after a little hiatus

12
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: of playing them, which I was happy with.

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: Don't love playing the Ravens. Gotta beat twenty five to nine.

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: Went back there for the playoffs, all excited, lost thirty

15
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: four to ten.

16
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: Haven't been back since.

17
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: And obviously everybody remembers what happened on Christmas Day, even

18
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: though we've all tried to forget it happened. It did happen,

19
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: and it was not pretty. So Texans have got a

20
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: large hill to climb. But we will talk about all

21
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,319
Speaker 1: the things that are going on with this game. There

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: is so much happening, especially on the Ravens side as

23
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: it pertains to injuries. Those will pop up with all

24
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 1: of our interviews. We got punter Tommy Townsend coming on

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: with us. We had a tremendous time talking with Tommy

26
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: on Wednesday. Nester Appoitio, a radio legend in the city

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: of Baltimore, is going to jump on the mic with

28
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,559
Speaker 1: Mark a little bit later.

29
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,919
Speaker 2: He is tremendous, so we will have that. Mark did a.

30
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: Great seasons series history with the Ravens, even though it

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: wasn't and hasn't been pretty, there have been some incredible ballgames,

32
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: just none lately at that point. But we kick off

33
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: every Wednesday show with the man himself, Executive vice president

34
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: and general manager of your Houston Texans, Nick Cassio. Let's

35
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: Rock joining us now Executive vice president and general manager

36
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: Nick Cassario.

37
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: Nick, thanks for being on, Fellas.

38
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: Good to beer.

39
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 4: Coming off the win and into week five in Baltimore.

40
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 4: First of all, gigantic step forward.

41
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: Right with the win over Tennessee.

42
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, played well as a team. We talked about just

43
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 5: playing four quarters of football. We were able to play,

44
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 5: you know, fairly complimentary football, didn't turn the ball over,

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 5: had the positive return on a punt return, gained that

46
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 5: first first down. Defense played well only time you pitched

47
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 5: a shutout. I mean the defense obviously played well and offensively.

48
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 5: You know, we had a number of positive drives. I mean,

49
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 5: scored in the first two possessions of the game. Kind

50
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 5: of had a little lull there, and then in the

51
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 5: fourth courter were able to finish the drives and it

52
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,239
Speaker 5: took advantage, took the turnover, turn that into points, able

53
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 5: to close the game out kind of in a four

54
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 5: minute situation. So overall, I mean, certainly positive development. You know,

55
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 5: we've played well in spurts over the course of the

56
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 5: first four games, so to come out with a victory,

57
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 5: I mean it certainly. You know, it's a nice way

58
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 5: down the.

59
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: Week, Nick, playing clean offensively, just doing that, not turning

60
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: the ball over. And look, I understand we got a

61
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: second in thirty three because we did back ourselves up

62
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: a little bit, but that was timely the only time

63
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: in a ball game where it seemed like we were

64
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: playing behind the sticks a little bit. What are your

65
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: thoughts about playing clean and showing the offense. Hey, look,

66
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: when you play clean. Look what happens well when you

67
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: look around the league. I mean, that's kind of what

68
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: it takes.

69
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 5: So you want to try to stay on track and

70
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 5: first and second down, put yourself in advantageous third down situations.

71
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 5: Anytime you call plays, whether it's a run or a

72
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 5: pass play, if you're gaining positive yards, that's better than

73
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 5: the alternative.

74
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 3: So you alluded to that drive.

75
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 5: I mean, we had a nice gain, then it got

76
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 5: called back, and then we picked them on the screen,

77
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 5: so then it's second and long and then we got

78
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 5: stopped in a negative run and second and long, and

79
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 5: then CJ. Nico made a play. So honestly, if you

80
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 5: take those couple of plays out, and most of the

81
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 5: plays were positive plays. Even from our perspective, there's still

82
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 5: a number of plays were made, some mental airs where

83
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 5: it wasn't as clean as we would like. So we

84
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 5: still even though we made improvements, there's still an opportunity

85
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 5: for even more gains. And that's what you're really looking

86
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 5: for in a week to week basis. Just try to

87
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 5: make improvements, try to limit the negative plays, and just

88
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 5: try to make sure that the ball's going the right direction.

89
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 4: More often than not, Nick, it's not like we're going

90
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 4: to send Woody Marks to Canton yet, but it was

91
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: a good performance. So give us your scouting report if

92
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 4: you will on Woody Marks.

93
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: What he does for this offense.

94
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, what he's been pretty steady since the spring.

95
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 5: Doesn't say much, but he goes out there and he

96
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 5: was a productive player, you know, out of sc and

97
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 5: then even going back to Mississippi State, and we talked

98
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 5: a little bit about him around draft time. But versatile back.

99
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 5: Him and Nick have have done a nice job for us.

100
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 5: You know, we're right around four yards a carry in

101
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 5: a running game or.

102
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 3: Something like that.

103
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 5: But what, he's got good balance, he's heard attackle and

104
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 5: made some people miss. He made hi plays in the

105
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 5: passing game. So he's certainly worked really hard. He's improved

106
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 5: and honestly, he's been consistent even going back to training camp,

107
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 5: and he took advantage of his opportunities in the game,

108
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 5: had a few more opportunities and was able to capitalize

109
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 5: on those.

110
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 3: And you know, it's good to see.

111
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 4: What about the pass protection part of things because Danny

112
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 4: Barrett has to work with all those backs on that.

113
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, we've talked about this at different points. I mean,

114
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 5: part of a running backs job. Pass protection is paramount,

115
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 5: especially on third down because the number of the exotics

116
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 5: that you're gonna have to see and you're gonna get

117
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 5: a different look. So the identification is important. Who you're

118
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 5: blocking or you're doing the right thing. Can you physically

119
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 5: block the man in front of you? Danny does a

120
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 5: phenomenal job. They spend a lot of time in practice

121
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 5: on pass protection. It's a skill that you can actually

122
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 5: work on and improve. Quite frankly, not a lot of

123
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 5: college backs are well versed in pass protection, and a

124
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 5: lot of it comes down to willingness and toughness. And

125
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 5: you saw examples of that. I mean, you know everybody

126
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 5: saw the play there. You know with what he where?

127
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 5: You know the week's safety blits off he is, but

128
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 5: that's part of the responsibility to get him block or

129
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 5: you don't. They Tennessee got a certainly the game the

130
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 5: name ran a will and stunt. You know, we're able

131
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 5: to pick the tackle off and Nick couldn't quite get

132
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 5: to the will linebacker. But those are things that you're

133
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 5: gonna have to deal with as a running back. So

134
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 5: it's not just running the ball and catching the ball,

135
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 5: but pass protection is an important part of that job responsibility.

136
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: Nick, we had a great talk with e. J. Speed

137
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: this week and it was really fun to talk to him,

138
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: just kind of hearing his story, how he how he

139
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: got to where he is.

140
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 2: And I always feel like he's.

141
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: A great example for younger players because when he gets

142
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: to the cold she's at Charlton State, he's got to

143
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: make it on special teams.

144
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: He's playing on some good linebackers.

145
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: Then he gets the opportunity to play, and then he

146
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,919
Speaker 1: comes here and there's some great linebackers here. He doesn't

147
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 1: really get a lot of opportunities. But the other day

148
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: he did what do you see from eg and what's

149
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: he bringing to this defense?

150
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, he has been great to work with. I mean

151
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 5: he alluded to his story, Johnny, it's interesting look at

152
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 5: a player. It probably wasn't quite red at the NFL,

153
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,799
Speaker 5: but he was sixty three, it's two hundred thirty pounds

154
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 5: wherever he was, and he ran fast, has really good length.

155
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 5: I mean, he kind of found a Niche initially made

156
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 5: his waves a good kicking game player, and then when

157
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 5: he played defensively, I mean he had over one hundred

158
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 5: tackles on a back to back season basis, so as

159
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 5: a player that you know, we signed him, we thought, oh,

160
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 5: there's probably going to be an opportunity for him to

161
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 5: play at some point. But I would say regardless of

162
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 5: what his role has been, how much he's played or

163
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 5: has not played, his attitudes has been phenomenal. Kind of

164
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 5: give you a little anecdote. But in practice the other day,

165
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 5: and Tamiko mentioned this to the team after practice, but

166
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 5: you know, when the offense is going, typically a defense

167
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 5: is on the side or they're watching what's going on.

168
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 5: And Kirk made a play down a seam, you know,

169
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 5: third down play, and you know, EJ was one of

170
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 5: the first players there congratulate Kurt.

171
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: You know, on a play.

172
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 5: So it's in practice, but it's just showing his selflessness

173
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 5: and he's willing to do whatever it takes for the team.

174
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 5: And he played defensively a smaller role early on in

175
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 5: the first three weeks, but he was one of our

176
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 5: best players in kicking games, had multiple tackles. And then

177
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 5: you had an opportunity to play defensively the other day,

178
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,679
Speaker 5: and he shows up his length, is speed, his ability

179
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 5: to close space.

180
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: And cover ground.

181
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 5: He's had a great attitude, he's got a great demeanor,

182
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 5: he's got a great approach and we're glad he's here.

183
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, Nick, can you discuss the offensive line? The five

184
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 4: you had on the field for most of the second half,

185
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 4: they were playing really solid. You have the six man

186
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 4: and Blake Fisher. He also made a trade this week.

187
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,119
Speaker 4: What's the update with the offensive line.

188
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, there's always a lot of moving parts,

189
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 5: but I think that group, you know, looks like probably

190
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 5: the five that will go with But things can change

191
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 5: at any point. But overall, they played fairly well. I

192
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 5: mean for the most part. I mean we talked before

193
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 5: the game about you know, we weren't going to eliminate Simmons,

194
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,239
Speaker 5: We're trying to neutralize him, and he made a negative

195
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 5: play there. Of that play was more our fault than

196
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 5: anybody else's. But overall, I mean, they played while they

197
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 5: played physical. We used some jumbo you know with Fisher

198
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 5: in the game, so that was kind of a different

199
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 5: look for us there.

200
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: But group works hard, has got a good attitude.

201
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 5: You know, we're able to make some plays, and anytime

202
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 5: you have success offensively, it starts, you know, with the

203
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 5: offensive line.

204
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say I told you so, but the

205
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: sixth offensive lineman.

206
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was Johnny's idea, that was my that's my.

207
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: Game play, that's my contribution to the game, playing six

208
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 1: offense line speaking offensive lineman Nick. The trade with Cam

209
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: Robinson going to the Browns, how did that come to be?

210
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you know, we signed Cam in the spring,

211
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 5: kind of had some question marks there, a little bit

212
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 5: of tackle.

213
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 3: We felt we had a good tackle situation.

214
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 5: You know, Tay's been out there kind of over the

215
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 5: last hour many weeks, and I just felt like it

216
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 5: made sense for for for both parties involved. I mean,

217
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 5: Cam's probably gonna get an opportunity to play a little

218
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 5: bit more there in Cleveland, and you know, we're.

219
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 3: Gonna go with Tay.

220
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 5: Obviously, got to still make sure that we have some depth.

221
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 5: You know, we have Blake, you know, you know it's

222
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 5: a third tack. Trent Brown's in the building as well,

223
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 5: and there's probably some other players that we might need

224
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 5: at some point.

225
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 3: But Cam's good to work with. It's can't be gonna

226
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: get a good opportunity here in Cleveland.

227
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 5: So any end, we just felt probably that was the

228
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 5: best way to go and made the most sense for

229
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 5: everybody involved.

230
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 4: In Well, this goes back to the spring when you're

231
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 4: in free agency and the draft period where you're just

232
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 4: trying to fordify a ninety man roster.

233
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 2: Right, you never know how it's going to shake out.

234
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 5: It's exactly right, Vandy, and that's kind of how we

235
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 5: approach it. So kind of let everything sort itself out,

236
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 5: that the competition sort itself out, and then take the

237
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 5: information in and look around the league what's going on.

238
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,599
Speaker 5: I mean, come to you know, there's a number of

239
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 5: teams that actually ended up losing some tackles there. So look,

240
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 5: we're in a decent spot right now. If something happens

241
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 5: to tackle, we'll probably have to do something. But hopefully

242
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 5: we have some reinforcements in the building that could help

243
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 5: us if we could put in that situation.

244
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: Okay, all this stuff about winning, it's great, but it's

245
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: behind us.

246
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,439
Speaker 2: We are on to Baltimore.

247
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 1: And sometimes when I say those words, I just cringe

248
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: a little bit because it's not been great against Baltimore.

249
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: But Nick, this is Baltimore.

250
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: Team coming in that there are some question marks because

251
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: there are guys banged up, and we've talked about that

252
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: in the prep about do you know if a guy's

253
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: ready or not. We know Matta bk is not playing.

254
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: That's the only one we know for one hundred percent

255
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: sure is not playing. But the scouting report of the

256
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: Ravens and some of these injured guys, how do you

257
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: kind of go about that too?

258
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 3: Sure?

259
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 5: I mean this is a week where a good example

260
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 5: prepare for everybody. I'd say, just the Ravens program. I mean,

261
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 5: this is one of the best programs in the league,

262
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 5: has been for a number of years. They've had a

263
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 5: tremendous amount of success. It starts at the top, you know,

264
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 5: with ownership and Steve and but Eric, Ozzy and John.

265
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 5: I mean they've been there for a number of years.

266
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 5: They've been able to withstand a lot of ups and down.

267
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 5: So this is a really good program, one of the

268
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 5: best programs in the league. We have a lot of

269
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 5: respect and appreciation for what they are doing. And then

270
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 5: their team, regardless of who's on the field, like, they

271
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 5: got a lot of good football players. I mean offensively,

272
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 5: everything starts with Lamar. I mean you're talking about potentially

273
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,599
Speaker 5: arguably two potential Hall of Fame players, and Lamar and

274
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 5: Derek Henry, and that Justice Hill is a really good

275
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 5: back in his role as well. So I mean I

276
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 5: got really good skill. I mean good tight end group.

277
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 5: I mean three legit tight ends, and Andrews and Kohl

278
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 5: Aar you know, and likely I know likely hadn't played

279
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 5: and had on a perimeter. I mean Zay Flowers. He's

280
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 5: one of the best receivers in the league. I mean,

281
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 5: they're very explosive. They have a number of players that

282
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 5: can make a lot of plays, you know. I mean

283
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 5: Bateman is a player that's kind of his role is

284
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 5: sort of grown and evolved. They extended him here in

285
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 5: the Springer during training camp. You know, obviously Hopkins his

286
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 5: career speaks for itself, and they've gotten good production from

287
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 5: tes Walker, who I think he has like four career

288
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 5: reception and three to number touchdowns. So he's big and

289
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 5: he's fast. I mean, a really strong offensive line, big

290
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 5: strong physical offensive line. The defense defensively, you know, you

291
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 5: mentioned Matt Abik, who's one of the best players. They've

292
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 5: had some guys in and out, but really strong front.

293
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 5: I mean a number of players that have been there

294
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 5: for a few years now that they've actually trained and developed.

295
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 5: Really kind of it's it's inside out from the standpoint

296
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 5: of Rokwon, who's one of the most respected players and

297
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 5: one of the best players in the league. I know,

298
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 5: he was injured there the other day against k C

299
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 5: and they extended you know, Kyle Hamilton the offseason, and

300
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 5: Kyle's kind of a unicorn for you know what he

301
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 5: can do. Drafted starts in the first round, so they're

302
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 5: really good up the middle, the perimeter. You know, drafted

303
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 5: Wiggins air in the first round a few years ago,

304
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 5: signed a woozy and free agency. They have multiple players

305
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 5: and kind of move in and now and then Humphrey

306
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 5: and his roles at nickel. You know, it's been a

307
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 5: really good player for a long time. So they present

308
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 5: a lot of challenges and a lot of different levels.

309
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 5: And you know, I would say they emphasize a kicking game,

310
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 5: probably as much as any team, maybe as much as

311
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 5: US or a little bit more. Probably an equal footing there.

312
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 5: But you know, good punter. Drafted the kicker loop there

313
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 5: this year. They drafted both the punter and the kicker

314
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 5: at different points. So overall, this is a good football team.

315
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 5: I mean, their record is what their record is. But

316
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,719
Speaker 5: you know, over the last three games, I mean, you know,

317
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 5: we've had our hands full, including going back to last

318
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 5: year on Christmas where that wasn't our best performance. So

319
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 5: playing on the road in Baltimore, hostile environment against one

320
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 5: of the best teams in the league, we're gonna need everybody,

321
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 5: and it's gonna take a good week of practice and

322
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 5: preparation to put ourselves in the vision to go out

323
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 5: there and hopefully play good football on Sunday.

324
00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 6: It's wild.

325
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 4: I know it's not about last year, but you look

326
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 4: at those numbers, and not only do they run the

327
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 4: ball so well, but Lamar throws for four thousand yards

328
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 4: and all those touchdowns, so it's a really multifaceted attack.

329
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 5: They can do just about anything Vandy. I mean they

330
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 5: run the ball well. I mean Lamar, I mean he

331
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 5: basically does everything well. I mean his accuracy. I think

332
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 5: he's up there sixty six, sixty seven, sixty eight percent

333
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 5: passer and then when you give him space, he's one

334
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 5: of the best athletes in the league. So they present

335
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 5: a lot of problems and they put a lot of

336
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 5: tacks on the defense.

337
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: So I think this will be a big week for

338
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 3: us just.

339
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 5: Being assignment sound and just playing with good fundamentals and

340
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 5: don't try to do too much and tackling is going

341
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 5: to be at a premium because they have a number

342
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 5: of players that are good with the ball in her hands,

343
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,599
Speaker 5: so they present challenges. I mean, essentially, they've had a

344
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 5: number of games that have come down to the last possession,

345
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 5: you know, too dissimilar from our situation. So you know,

346
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 5: this is a good football team and we're expecting their

347
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 5: best regardless of who's on the field for them.

348
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 1: Nick, I think I know the answer to this, but

349
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask it anyways, Lamar Jackson over here, Cooper

350
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: Rush over here, they couldn't be more different then just

351
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: as singular quarterbacks. But I know you say this all

352
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: the time. You got to prepare for what the Ravens do.

353
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: But I know they'll do some different things with Cooper

354
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: versus what they'll do with Lamar, And you don't know

355
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: about Lamar.

356
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 2: My guess is you prepare for both of them. But

357
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 2: how do you prepare for a.

358
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 1: Backup that you might potentially see that's so different from

359
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: the startup?

360
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 5: Sure, you start with the core and just look at

361
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 5: philosophically or what are some of the things that they're doing.

362
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 5: Maybe there's some core concepts that are going to transcend

363
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 5: regardless of who's playing quarterback, And there's certain things probably

364
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 5: gonna be specific to Lamar, and there's going to be

365
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 5: some other things that are maybe going to be specific

366
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 5: to Cooper. I mean Cooper as a player. Cooper's been,

367
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 5: you know, in this league for a number of years.

368
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 5: He's a really good backup. He's going out there in

369
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 5: won games as a starter. He did it in Dallas.

370
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 5: You know, we played against him last year there on

371
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 5: Monday Night. So there's a reason that they signed him

372
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 5: during the offseason because he brings sort of a vesterment

373
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 5: presence and he's played a lot of football. So you

374
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 5: look with the personnel, what are some of their strengths,

375
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 5: what are some of their weaknesses, And if they end

376
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 5: up playing Cooper, then maybe there's some things that are

377
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 5: gonna do a little bit more with him. But regards less,

378
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 5: the running game is going to be a big part

379
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 5: of what they're doing. I mean, as far as I know,

380
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 5: I mean, Henry's still going to be at the game,

381
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 5: justas Hill is still going to be at the game.

382
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 5: So their run game is still formidable regardless of who's

383
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 5: playing quarterback.

384
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, Nick, you're not old, but you're old enough to

385
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 4: remember Ozzy as a player, Yes, all right, Ozzy is

386
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 4: a player for the Cleveland Browns and then he becomes

387
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 4: an executive and what an executive really, and he's really

388
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 4: worshiped by a lot of people around this league. What

389
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 4: about the career that he's had as a player and

390
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 4: then as an executive.

391
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 5: Rightfully, so, I mean he's really he's had two Hall

392
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 5: of Fame careers, literally Hall of Fame career as a

393
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 5: player and what he's done and essentially building the Ravens

394
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 5: from the ground up. I mean, very few people have

395
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 5: done what he's done and the logevity that he's displayed

396
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 5: over the course of his career. And even though they

397
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 5: transition from Ozzie to Eric, Ozzy's still involved. But I mean,

398
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 5: I think for preop building, the team building sort of

399
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 5: business and looking at his death lens, what Ozzie did,

400
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 5: how he's approached it can't have nothing but respect and

401
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 5: admiration and appreciation. And there's a roadmap and a blueprint

402
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 5: to sort of follow. Understanding you have to make it

403
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 5: specific to your team. But the way they built a team,

404
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 5: I think they played Cleveland, you know whatever, that was

405
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 5: week two or three, and then they came out before

406
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 5: the game, you know, with Jonathan Agen and ray Lewis

407
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 5: and knows who were his first two draft picks. So

408
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 5: you're talking about two Hall of Fame players that he drafted,

409
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 5: Hall of Fame executive and Hall of Fame player himself,

410
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 5: and Ozzy. So I mean Ozzie's career, honestly, nobody's probably

411
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 5: gonna even come close to being able to duplicate what

412
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 5: he's done. Again, just speaks to the respect and appreciation

413
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 5: that I would say we as an organization have, and

414
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 5: you know, i'd say Demico and I individually have for Ozzie.

415
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 4: All Right, I know you don't have feelings like this,

416
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 4: but your relatives who are still in the Cleveland area,

417
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 4: how do they feel about the Ravens being the former

418
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 4: Browns and oh everything they've done because they could have

419
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 4: done it in Cleveland.

420
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't really talk too much about that.

421
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 5: So my mom even, you know, she's back home in Cleveland,

422
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 5: and she like kind of tells me all what happen

423
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 5: with the Browns, And I'm like, Mom, like, sorry, I'm

424
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 5: not really worried about the Browns right now.

425
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 3: Focused on the Texans.

426
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 1: Nick, you mentioned the unicorn Kyle Hamilton, and over his

427
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: years of being in Baltimore, it feels like Baltimore has

428
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: used him in different ways. Some one year it felt

429
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: like he was playing almost a will linebackers specifically, and

430
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 1: then there are other times where he's playing a true safety.

431
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 2: How have they been using him this year, especially with

432
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: the addition starts back there.

433
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, they used him everywhere.

434
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 5: I mean, I think you've seen a little bit more

435
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 5: true safety with him and Malachi because Marlins is as

436
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 5: good of an inside player inside the formation players is

437
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,719
Speaker 5: in the league. So depending on his status, maybe they

438
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 5: make some modifications or adjustments. Even going back to last

439
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 5: year and previously, Kyle's played some big nickel or some

440
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 5: nickel role. So I mean Kyle's big, he's long, he's athletic,

441
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 5: he's very instinctive, he's very smart. Means he has the

442
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 5: ability to affect the game in a positive way for

443
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 5: the Ravens defense, negative for the opposing offense. So he's

444
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 5: a good football player. There's a reason they rewarded him

445
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 5: with the contracts tension that they did, and he earned it.

446
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 5: He's earned it.

447
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: Nick.

448
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 4: Every week, I'm going to ask you about special teams

449
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 4: because I continued to be blown away about the impact

450
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 4: of that third phase of the game, and it's maybe

451
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 4: a second phase now or one and a half, two

452
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 4: and a half, whatever it is, because big plays galore

453
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 4: all around the league.

454
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 5: Honestly, it's almost a weekly conversation, Vandy to your point.

455
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 5: So we saw the other day we saw another block

456
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 5: field goal. At the end of the game, we saw

457
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 5: a block extra point, which is versus the points you've

458
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 5: seen multiple returns. We figured going into the season the

459
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 5: return game was gonna factor in even maybe more so

460
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 5: than it has in the past, and that's really come

461
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 5: to fruition. We take a lot of pride into kicking

462
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 5: game and what we do and how we approach it,

463
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 5: and the players internalize that as well because it can

464
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 5: impact winning and or losing.

465
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 3: It can go either way. So special teams is really

466
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 3: the third phase.

467
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 5: So you have to allocate as much time and resources

468
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 5: to that phase as you do offensively and defensively because

469
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 5: you never really know where that winning play is going

470
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 5: to come from, what phase it's going to impact the

471
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 5: game the most.

472
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 4: Has the practice time changed for special teams in the

473
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,199
Speaker 4: last few years since we were in that era of

474
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 4: zero returns.

475
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 5: Seeming special teams. Coaches are always asking for more practice.

476
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 5: I think that's pretty.

477
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 3: Universal around the league. So we spend enough time on it.

478
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 5: And I'm sure Frank if he needs to steal a

479
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 5: few minutes, I'm sure he'll beg the migo.

480
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: For building along those lines. Nick, with the special teams,

481
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 1: there have been returns. It's been the blocks Tampa Bay.

482
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: We had one against Tampa Bay. Then the Eagles go

483
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: block one and return it back. You mentioned Josh Blackwell

484
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: with the Bears off the edge, which always baffles me

485
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: how the guy off the edge can block a field

486
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: goal in the NFL. But either way, it feels like

487
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: the blocks have been happening way more.

488
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 2: The Eagles had two against the Rams. Is there a

489
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 2: reason for that that you could surmise.

490
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 5: No other than the teams are emphasizing it and they're

491
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 5: allocating time and resources and personnel. You're seeing starting caliber

492
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 5: players that are involved in that face. So you have

493
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 5: players that either starts an offense, starts on defense, or

494
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 5: starts in a kicking game. And so those players are

495
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 5: taking on significantly more you know, more relevance and are

496
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 5: more important, and comes down to commitment and fundamentals and techniques.

497
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 5: When you're blocking edge rushers, there's a certain technique that

498
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 5: you want to use. I mean, you can't just cut

499
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 5: the guy loose. I mean you're trying to be conscious inside,

500
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 5: but also have counties outside. So who's blocking on the edge.

501
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 5: There's a lot of things. There's a lot that goes

502
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 5: into it. It's not just roll the ball out there

503
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 5: and like kick an extra point a field goal. There's

504
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 5: definitely a strategy that's involved. And it speaks to the

505
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 5: coaching in that phase. And again going back to Baltimore,

506
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 5: I mean, coach Harbaugh came up and the kicking games

507
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 5: Chris Coach Horton's there now. But they put a lot

508
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 5: of time into that phase and you can't you can't

509
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 5: spend too much time on it because it could it

510
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 5: could win or lose your game.

511
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 3: There's no question.

512
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 4: How about your rookie long snap or Austin Brinkman part

513
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 4: of the operations so important. He and Tommy and Kaimi

514
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 4: get it together.

515
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, keep it together.

516
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, those groups that those three players spend pretty much

517
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 5: the whole day together, entire practice together, So there's a

518
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 5: timing you know, snapping and you know working more seeing

519
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 5: different looks.

520
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 3: So Brink is learning. He's done a decent job.

521
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 5: I mean, he's been taxed at different point, So pump

522
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 5: protection is important. It's a product of the people around

523
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 5: you as well. But Briggs got a really good attitude,

524
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 5: who works hard, he's quiet, doesn't say too much, and

525
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 5: he's improving. And that's all you can really ask for

526
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 5: younger players.

527
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: Okay, today is the fiftieth anniversary at one of the

528
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: greatest sporting events of all time. And for some reason,

529
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: it's the first sporting event that I remember because I

530
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: always show up on Wide World of Sports.

531
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 2: I know we all watch that.

532
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: Growing up as again the thrill in Manila A Lei

533
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: Frasier the third fight between them at least talked about

534
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 1: that fight like he said it was the closest to death,

535
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: and it got me thinking because I remembered that fight

536
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: when I was a young kid, and it's kind of

537
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 1: stayed with me forever. Fiftieth anniversary. Is there a major

538
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: sporting event that you remember growing up as a kid,

539
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 1: like one of the first ones that you ever remember.

540
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: You're like, man, I remember that Super Bowl, I remember

541
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: the finals. Is there one that stands out for you WrestleMania. No,

542
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: we'll leave Wrestlemingia. Actually I have two.

543
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 5: When Tyson was fighting, Oh yeah, some of his fights

544
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 5: where you didn't want to miss those because you really

545
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 5: don't know what's going to happen. So I would say

546
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,719
Speaker 5: some of the Tyson fights. And then you know, I

547
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 5: was a Duke fan growing up, So I distinctly remember

548
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 5: the Latner shot against Kentucky. I mean that like stood out.

549
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 5: I was in my living room, I was by myself.

550
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 5: I mean literally I was like screaming and hollering with

551
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 5: nobody around.

552
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 3: But I would say those are probably.

553
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 5: Two illustrative examples of I distinctly kind of remember those

554
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 5: two situations. But you know, I mean there's so many. Look,

555
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 5: the thing about sports is there's been so many great

556
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 5: events and so many great opportunities, and you know, to

557
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 5: see peak performers at the highest level. I mean, that's

558
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 5: what the fans want to see in a week to

559
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 5: week basis, and you know, hopefully we can provide them

560
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 5: for the people here in Houston as well.

561
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: All Right, I have an important question.

562
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 3: I'm curious too.

563
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 4: After a Texans victory on the following day, Nick, a

564
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 4: lot of things happened food wise, Pizza Hut fifty.

565
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 3: Wow, you have.

566
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 4: Six Fromfalo I didn't part take. Well, we'll set you

567
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 4: up here. Six free wings from Buffalo Wild Wings when

568
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 4: the Texans force a turnover. If the Texans have a

569
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 4: passing touchdown, you get what six free McNuggets at McDonald's.

570
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 4: So you have to have one of these things. Now, look,

571
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 4: I know these things are not advertised as hell. Yes,

572
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 4: if you had to pick one of these things and

573
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:24,479
Speaker 4: you know it's not right, like allright, Pizza Hut, wings

574
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 4: from Buffalo Wild Wings or McNuggets from McDonald's.

575
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 5: I would probably have the McNuggets and take the breading off.

576
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 6: Okay, take I don't know, I don't know if that's allowed.

577
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 4: Okay, we'll we'll accept the answer, not the wings.

578
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: I was waiting for wings with no sauce, just maybe salt.

579
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 3: Good try, good try.

580
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought that was coming Nick.

581
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 6: Good luck this week.

582
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 3: Thanks Fellas.

583
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, that's the best answer we've gotten from him.

584
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get take McNuggets and take the breading off.

585
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 2: I mean, oh, I love that dude, man.

586
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: He is just absolutely awesome, all right. I also love

587
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 1: Tommy Townsend. I could sit and talk with Tommy about

588
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: punting and special teams forever and.

589
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 2: We had a great time.

590
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 1: Plus we did the draft Tommy Townsend versus John Harris

591
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 1: straight up.

592
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 2: You'll hear what it is. Stick around for that next

593
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 2: on Texans All Access.

594
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, welcome back to this Wednesday Nation of Texans

595
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: All Access from at Texans Radio Studio. I'm John Harris,

596
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: football analyst, sideline reporter and a huge fan of banana ball.

597
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: And well, yeah, I'm a fan of Savannah bananas banana ball,

598
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about banana balls off the foot of

599
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,959
Speaker 1: Tommy Townsend. I'm a big fan of Tommy Townsend, punter

600
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 1: for your Houston Texans. He came into the studio and

601
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: he actually, well he told us what a banana.

602
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 2: Ball was, and it's really cool.

603
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: I love I love to learn things about stuff and

604
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: football that I don't know, whether it's offense, defense, special teams,

605
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: whatever it might be. I love learning about special teams

606
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: and potent because it's.

607
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 2: It's it's really different.

608
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: It's so scientifically done. Just a turn of the ball here,

609
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: a drop of the ball there. Tommy goes into great

610
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: detail with a lot of stuff. It's really really fun

611
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: and we did the draft Townsend v. Harris at the end.

612
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: So hang around and listen to Tommy with Mark and myself.

613
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 4: Tommy town said with us in the Hundai Texans Radio studio.

614
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 6: Tommy, how's it going.

615
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 3: It's going great.

616
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, excited for this week. It's gonna be a

617
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 2: good one.

618
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 4: So thanks for visiting with us. We're looking forward to

619
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 4: seeing you work in Baltimore. And it's a big challenge.

620
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 4: So take us through putting outdoors versus putting indoors, because

621
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 4: you've had both this year.

622
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, definitely. Yeah.

623
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 7: Obviously putting outdoors, you know, you bring in certain conditions,

624
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 7: like you know, wind is the most important thing for

625
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 7: me since you know, I'm kicking a moving object. But

626
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 7: uh yeah, dealt with a lot of wind, you know. Uh,

627
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 7: you know when I was in Kansas City, and obviously indoors,

628
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 7: you know, you get no conditions or yeah, no wind really,

629
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 7: so it's a lot more to be predictable with with

630
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 7: different winds, uh and gusts and all that stuff. So

631
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 7: that's something I check going into the week, what the

632
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 7: wind's going to be like in the stadium and Miles

633
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 7: prow or just so I know what to expect.

634
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I was thinking about you leading up to

635
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 1: the game is so far because Sofi is considered an

636
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: outdoor stadium. It was hot as hell in there. It

637
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: felt like an outdoor game. Did that change it all

638
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,640
Speaker 1: the way you had to punt during that game? Because

639
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,120
Speaker 1: that stadium, I mean a little bit not really.

640
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 7: So Sofi is a very interesting stadium to where it

641
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 7: feels like you're punning into the wind both ways really

642
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 7: since like, yeah, both ends are open, and it's something

643
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 7: weird about the stadium where yeah, it feels like, uh yeah,

644
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 7: just punting into the breeze a little bit interesting.

645
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah wow.

646
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 7: So so, especially when I'm hitting the plus fifty end

647
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 7: over end punts, you know, I try and drive the

648
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 7: ball a little bit more because the wind coming in

649
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 7: kind of tends to knock it down a little bit.

650
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 7: And same thing like when I'm you know, when I'm

651
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 7: backed up, I'm hitting open field punts, it feels like

652
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 7: I might have a little bit of a breeze at

653
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 7: the back, but as soon as it gets to midfield,

654
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 7: you know, it kind of holds the ball up, so

655
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 7: I have to try and launch it just a little

656
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 7: bit lower.

657
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 4: How do you decide whether to go coffin corner ish

658
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 4: or go I'm just gonna put it straight and just

659
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 4: try to hang it inside the ten. So the return

660
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 4: man catches the ball, not one of those where he

661
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 4: lets it go it bounces into the end zone, but

662
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 4: it often checks up for you as well.

663
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 2: So how do you make those decisions?

664
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, So honestly, it just kind of depends on the day.

665
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 7: I mean, punting kicking is very similar to golf to

666
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 7: where you know you're not gonna feel the same every day,

667
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:21,360
Speaker 7: and you're gonna be more confident doing certain things. But

668
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 7: but yeah, something we were really excited about this past

669
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 7: week was the first punt of the game.

670
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 2: I hit a they call it the a banana.

671
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 7: Ball, yeah, which is becoming, you know, a little bit

672
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 7: more common around the league. Turned the ball, yeah, so

673
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 7: you kind of like if if I'm hitting a normal spiral,

674
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 7: you know, I turned the nose you know, in towards

675
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 7: about eleven o'clock. But with the banana ball, you turn

676
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 7: it the opposite direction and kind of put the nose down,

677
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 7: swing through the back of the ball, and it kind

678
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 7: of gets like a weird kind of spirally banana rotation

679
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 7: to it.

680
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 2: Kind of like almost like a knuckleball sort of feeling.

681
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 8: Yeah.

682
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it kind of like goes up. It kind of

683
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 2: like loops.

684
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 7: It kind of like goes up to the right and

685
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 7: then back down around to the left and then back

686
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 7: down to the right.

687
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 2: So it's so difficult for the returners to catch, yeah, exactly.

688
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,879
Speaker 4: So you have to catch the snaw app position the ball,

689
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 4: do all that in a split second while people are

690
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 4: trying to take your head.

691
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 2: Off basically something like that. Yeah, that's that's got to

692
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 2: be pretty tough to do and do accurately.

693
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 4: I notice you practice sometimes just just lowering the ball

694
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 4: out of your foot or something like that. You're walking

695
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 4: around with it by yourself. Give us an idea of

696
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 4: some of the things you work on just to get

697
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 4: that repetition going so you can execute.

698
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

699
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 7: I mean a big thing with punting the ball is

700
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 7: timing up your leg swing with the drop and ball position,

701
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 7: like the angle of the ball. Everybody has different drops,

702
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 7: people like different things, and so like a big thing

703
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 7: for me, like right now is like I'm just trying

704
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 7: to keep it low and have the nose of the

705
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 7: ball turned in and you know, one of my tendencies

706
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 7: dropping inside, so I'm trying to keep it outside my

707
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 7: foot a little bit. And and yeah, so I'm just

708
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 7: sitting there. I walk up and down the sideline and

709
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 7: I just have I have these feels with my body

710
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 7: that I'm trying to get the ball in the right spot,

711
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 7: you know, with my eyes, the feel in my hand.

712
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 7: I don't want the nose to be back too far

713
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 7: back in my palm. I want to be more in

714
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 7: my fingertips. So small things like that, but but it

715
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 7: makes it easier when you got an awesome snapper like

716
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 7: Austin Brinkman. I mean, he's been incredible is here. He's

717
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 7: been snapping me great balls on punt, So yeah, I could.

718
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 7: I couldn't be more thrilled to have him, Tommy.

719
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: When I think about well, when we think about punting,

720
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: it's got a lot of I guess relationship with golf

721
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: because you think about how it lands. You want to bite,

722
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: you want to do different things. And when golf you've

723
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: got pitching wedge, you got a nine iron, you got

724
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: a driver, you got three wood, you got all these

725
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,719
Speaker 1: different kind of clubs. Makes you feel like and just

726
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: like you talk, they're different. You know, things you can

727
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 1: do with how many different How many different punchs? Do

728
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: you have different punt styles kind of like golf clubs

729
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: in your bag? Do you have different punt styles that

730
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: you have, Like, Oh, I want this one to bounce

731
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: and come back.

732
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 2: I want this one. This is my just I'm hitting

733
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: it as far as I possibly can.

734
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: Do you look at it that way kind of like

735
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 1: you've got this golf bag full of different punts that

736
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: you have.

737
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

738
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 7: And that's what I do when I'm uh so, I

739
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 7: go out early on the field pregame, and I'll walk

740
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 7: the field field the wind, and I'll kind of get

741
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 7: my reps in my head. And then same thing pregame.

742
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 7: I'm hitting a bunch of different types of balls, trying

743
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 7: to find the right ball flight in the windows that

744
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 7: I need to put it through to hit the best ball.

745
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 7: But same thing. It kind of depends on wind. If

746
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 7: I have a little bit of a breeze in the face,

747
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 7: I tend to straighten the ball up and drop the

748
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 7: nose a little bit to get a little bit more

749
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 7: of like a piercing ball flight. And say, like I

750
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 7: have wind like left to right off the back moving

751
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 7: this way, I tend to take my line a little

752
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 7: bit more straight and turn the nose of the ball

753
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 7: in more and more flat and hit you know, really

754
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 7: tight spinning ball and the wind kind.

755
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: Of helps push over to the right.

756
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 7: So it's all about just manipulating the ball to like

757
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 7: try and optimize, you know, the punt for whatever the

758
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 7: scenario is.

759
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: So it is like a golf club, like sometimes you

760
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: bring out the nine iron, you know, sometimes you get

761
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: out the three iron. You gotta hammer one the one

762
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 1: that you hammered the other day? What was kind of

763
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: the what was the goal? And by the way, you

764
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: didn't have a shot in your locker afterwards, you know,

765
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: testing you or anything because of how much you get,

766
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 1: did you? I mean I kind of got worried about

767
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: that I got one today.

768
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 2: I told you there's nothing to worry if I told

769
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 2: you was coming he hit an eighty yard punt. That

770
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 2: was that one. Just I'm getting rid of his ball

771
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 2: and I'm just hammering with everything I got. Was that

772
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 2: getting the driver out of the golf back? Yeah.

773
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 7: So that was just one of the punts where it's

774
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 7: like okay, like uh, it's best ball scenario, Like I

775
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 7: just want to get it out. I want to hit

776
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 7: a good punt and we had an alert so we

777
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 7: were originally gonna go right across field, we had an

778
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 7: alert overload on the right, so we went left and

779
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 7: and yeah, it's it's kind of interesting. You'd think punts

780
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 7: that are, you know, coming out of the air more softly,

781
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 7: balls that are kind of like you know, hit you

782
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 7: hit a turnover and the nose comes down like this.

783
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 7: Sometimes you hit the ones that come down sideways that

784
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 7: those typically are the ones that jump forward. But it's

785
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,479
Speaker 7: really interesting. Sometimes when you hit a really tight spinning

786
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 7: ball and you know it's really launched, sometimes the nose

787
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 7: of the ball will just dig right into the ground

788
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 7: and kick straight back up.

789
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 2: And fortunately that's what happened on that one.

790
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 4: You know, this is like everything you wanted to know

791
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 4: about punting, but we're afraid to ask.

792
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: What about I'm I'm telling you the most the most

793
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: interesting conversation. I mean, I've talked to Tommy about this before,

794
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: just the different you know, I remember you're talking about

795
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: Kansas City punting outside versus punting inside. He's like, you know,

796
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 1: I'm so used to punting outside that punting inside. It's

797
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: gonna take a little bit. But Shane Luckler was the

798
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 1: same way. I remember talking to Shane years ago we

799
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,239
Speaker 1: were in we were in Oakland, which is where he

800
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: was used to and he gave me the breakdown. He's like,

801
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 1: if we're going this way, we're in this hash, we're

802
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: going this way. I know the wind will do this

803
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: in this stadium, So I punt this. It's over here,

804
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: I do this. Then he went through every stadium in

805
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: the AFC West and did the same thing. Like there's

806
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: so much that goes into it, it's so fascinating.

807
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, and that that's something I kind of did

808
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 7: my rookie years. I kind of reached out to some

809
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 7: of the other specialists around the league and you know,

810
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 7: like before traveling to play in their stadium, is like, hey, like,

811
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 7: what are kind of the tendencies like with winds, Like

812
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 7: what typically happens, like, you know, cause it's different everywhere

813
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 7: you go, Like Jacksonville's very swirly, and it's it's pretty

814
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 7: hard to like predict what the wind's gonna do. And yeah, unfortunately,

815
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 7: like I had, you know, I had a couple of

816
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 7: those where like, uh, I hit in the game and

817
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 7: you know, I I thought I hit a great ball

818
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 7: and I look up and the wind just hits it

819
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 7: up top and just rips it out of bounce and

820
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 7: and yeah, so.

821
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 2: You just gotta you really gotta adjust.

822
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 7: You gotta be on your toes and just know what

823
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 7: the wind in the stadium is gonna do.

824
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

825
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 4: Why don't we have rugby punts in the NFL? Are

826
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 4: we too cool for that?

827
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 2: What's going on? Yeah? I don't know.

828
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 7: I mean I'm good with the traditional punting stock.

829
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm good with that K.

830
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 4: Balls because you all punters and kickers use a caball

831
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 4: and we've heard a lot about that this week. What's

832
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 4: the difference between a K ball and a regular football?

833
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, so with the quarterback balls, they use mud to

834
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 7: break them in, and uh, I think it just helps

835
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 7: keep the ball a little bit more grippy for quarterbacks

836
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 7: when it's wet. I mean, center centers are pretty sweaty guys.

837
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 7: So so yeah, I think it's I think it's just that.

838
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 4: But yeah, yours is more of the straight kind of football.

839
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, so ours is just a brand new ball, straight

840
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 7: out of the bag. And uh and yeah, one of

841
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 7: our guys, Mike will sit there and break in the balls,

842
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 7: just straight leather. He'll put water on it to help

843
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 7: like soften it up, and you know, kind of break

844
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 7: it in with the back of the brush and brush

845
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 7: it out with the bristles and.

846
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 2: It gets this we call it like tacky.

847
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 7: So it's kind of like sticky a little bit, right,

848
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 7: But uh yeah, cable, you know, much more red, just

849
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 7: that true like leather color, which I like that, Like

850
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 7: I don't like looking at like dark footballs.

851
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 2: I like looking at the red footballs.

852
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: So in the first game of the year, the Chiefs

853
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: are playing Chargers and there's a moment right at the

854
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: end of the half where Chiefs receiver was tackling bounds.

855
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 2: They've got to have a fire drill field goal.

856
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: He runs to the middle of the field, he gives

857
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: the ball to the ref they spot it, they kick it.

858
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: He makes it from I don't know, fifty eight to

859
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: fifty nine whatever it was, and then there was talk

860
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: afterwards like he didn't kick the k ball. So is

861
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: making a punt or a field goal that much more

862
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: difficult with the regular ball? I know, for a punt

863
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: you more likely have time to get your ball in, Yeah,

864
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: but if you don't, is it that much more difficult

865
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,959
Speaker 1: to kick the tackrified ball that the offense is using.

866
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

867
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 7: I mean, honestly, the quarterback balls are since they don't

868
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 7: really break it in with with the back of the

869
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 7: brush the leathers, it's it's very kind of it's pretty hard.

870
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 7: It's not very like malleable. Yeah yeah, so yeah, the

871
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 7: ball just doesn't really come off the same and it

872
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 7: does just doesn't have as much pop. And we actually

873
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 7: had that happened to us week one, the very first

874
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 7: snap of the game, and that was a I think

875
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 7: it was an extra point. There was some trouble with

876
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 7: the I don't know what the play. The rest were

877
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 7: trying to figure out if there were the spot was

878
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 7: correct or if it was a touchdown, and they left

879
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 7: the quarterback ball in. So so yeah, Austin Brinkman, he had

880
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 7: his very first snap in the NFL with his quarterback ball.

881
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,399
Speaker 2: So yeah, we got that. Forum gave it to him.

882
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 2: I have an idea.

883
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 4: So so the inflatability it's the same, right, there's no

884
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 4: deflate gate worries.

885
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 6: Because you guys want the maximum amount of air in there. Yeah,

886
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 6: they hear me out, Tommy Helium just kidding.

887
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll have to talk to Mike about that one.

888
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's legal, but just the thought here.

889
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 4: Uh, I want to ask you about Neeland Stadium because

890
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 4: you played at Florida, you played at Tennessee. Home field advantage,

891
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 4: the craziness at Nielan Stadium, and or maybe the swamp

892
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 4: versus some NFL buildings. It's just a different atmosphere.

893
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, for sure.

894
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 7: I mean SEC environments just uh it's it's incredible as is,

895
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 7: but uh yeah, I mean Tennessee was extremely special place,

896
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 7: and you know sometimes it's like, you know, maybe I

897
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,839
Speaker 7: wanted to stay, but but it's a great move going

898
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 7: to Florida. But yeah, just the SEC environment in general.

899
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 7: I mean, the stadiums get rocking, and anytime there's a

900
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 7: big rivalry or matchup, I mean it's just, uh, it's

901
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 7: it's kind of an unparalleled environment. It's it's very different

902
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 7: to the NFL. I wouldn't say one's better or worse,

903
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 7: but uh but uh yeah, they're just very different environments.

904
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 4: What's the difference really as far as your job is concerned.

905
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 7: Honestly, I don't really think there's there's much of a difference.

906
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 7: I mean, either way, it's go out and execute. But

907
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 7: but I've talked about this, you know a little bit

908
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 7: over the years. The only time that I've really heard

909
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 7: in noticed crowd noise was my senior year. We were

910
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 7: playing at LSU Death Valley night game and ball was

911
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 7: on like the two yard line and and oh my gosh,

912
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 7: like it felt like the fans were like right on

913
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 7: my back, just going crazy. So that was really the

914
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 7: only time I've noticed like crowd noise. I try and

915
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 7: stay in my zone when I go out there.

916
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 1: Okay, you're ready for the draft, you and me. This

917
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: draft is real simple. It's just for four turns back

918
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: and forth. We've done different topics with different with different guys. Okay, yours,

919
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: it's a little different. You got four that you can pick.

920
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: You got a punter, kicker, a Gator, evol. You can

921
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,839
Speaker 1: take him in any order. Okay, you go first, then

922
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 1: I'll follow. So it didn't like you just get all

923
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: of them. You get a punter, a kicker, a gator

924
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: of Volve for your draft, and you'll go against me.

925
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,319
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, so he ends up with a better draft, right,

926
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 2: but you go, Let you go, Let you go.

927
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 7: First, Okay, for sure, I guess I'll start out with

928
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 7: Florida one of the guys that I played with, Evan McPherson,

929
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 7: kicker Florida.

930
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 2: Absolute dog. He does a great job. So is he

931
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: your gator, your kicker?

932
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 7: Oh so I get I get of each yeah, okay, gotcha.

933

950
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 7: just like an absolute animal both college, NFL.

951
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:34,840

Speaker 2: Not you said.

955
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: Fred Weary could be another one that could could go

956
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 1: that way, but I think I'm gonna go.

957
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,399
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Jason Witten. Jason Witten is my vall.

958
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:54,160

959
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 2: a Gator.

960
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 7: Yeah for my vall. I mean, I could go the

961
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 7: easy way out and do Peyton Manning, but I think

962
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna stick with the guys that I know,

963
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 7: the guys I played with.

964
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 2: Josh Dobbs, Astro Dollars. Oh yeah, yeah, good one.

965
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, incredible guy, genius and uh just an

966
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 7: incredible player. I mean I love seeing him when he

967
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 7: had that run in Minnesota and was taken off. So

968
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 7: I'm always excited to see him get some opportunities in

969
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 7: the league. Okay, So I got a chance to see

970
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 7: a lot of nineties Gators. I mean I saw him

971
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 7: all up close. I lived in Jacksonville, so I got

972
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,279
Speaker 7: a chance to see all of them.

973
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 1: My the one guy that just amazed me every time

974
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: that I saw him was the freak John Curse and

975
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: when I first saw him, when I first saw Javon Curse,

976
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: I'll never forget it.

977
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 2: Bob Stoops had him on defense.

978
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 1: He's playing safety because he came out of college or

979
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: high school playing safety, right, and then every year under

980
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: Stoops he kind of moved closer closer until he got

981
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: to his defensive end position.

982
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:49,879
Speaker 2: I was like, I think that fits.

983
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 4: Before Tommy was born by the Yeah, probably, but you

984
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 4: know the freak.

985
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, all right, pretty good. I met Smith

986
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 2: as a gator.

987
00:39:58,480 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 6: How about that?

988
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 4: We should bet he's a cowboy. So forget about it, Tommy,

989
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 4: thanks a lot for joining us.

990
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:05,720
Speaker 2: Good luck. Yeah, thanks guys.

991
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: That was fun with Tommy, no doubt about it. A

992
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 1: kicker upon her a gator of all. I kind of

993
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: liked that. That's kind of what we went with. So

994
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: uh yeah, Javon Curse was an absolute badass. But when

995
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 1: he came out of high school, I think he wasn't

996
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,760
Speaker 1: from North Fort Myers if I remember correctly, the freak show.

997
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: The freak was a freak show coming out of high school.

998
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: But he's playing safety number forty two and never forget it.

999
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 1: Saw him for the first time, I'm like, oh my god.

1000
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: Then Bob Stoops got him at floor. He's like, okay,

1001
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: you're playing safety for a little bit. Then he moved

1002
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: the linebacker. Then he moved up to the edge, and

1003
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 1: that's when they found the stud that became Javon Cursed.

1004
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 1: All right, coming up next, we got to look at

1005
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 1: this injury report and it scares me a little bit,

1006
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: but it reminds me of Week two of twenty seventeen.

1007
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 2: I'll explain that next right here in Texans.

1008
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: All Access tapping everybody walking back to Wednesday edition of

1009
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: Texans All Access from not a Texans Radio studio. I

1010
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,359
Speaker 1: am your host, John Harris Football Sideline Report or as

1011
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 1: we get ready for this matchup with Baltimore on Sunday.

1012
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: Kickoff if you're in the Baltimore area is one Eastern time.

1013
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,760
Speaker 1: If you're here obviously watching a game, it's at noon,

1014
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 1: So a noon kick in Baltimore. I don't mind it.

1015
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: We've done kind of all types. We've done a noon kick,

1016
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: done an afternoon kick for a playoff game, and did

1017
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 1: a night game a Monday night football game there.

1018
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 2: So unfortunately all of them have been losses.

1019
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 1: In every game in Baltimore for the Texans has been

1020
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 1: a freaking loss.

1021
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 2: So we got to try and change that. Now, one

1022
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 2: of the keys in this game is going to.

1023
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: Be who the hell plays, because nobody really knows at

1024
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 1: this point, especially on the Baltimore side. So let's get

1025
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: into this injury report from Wednesday and Ikey's coming in.

1026
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 1: It reminded me of Week two twenty seventeen. I'll explain

1027
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 1: why just a second. But on Wednesday, neither Will Anderson

1028
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 1: Junior Derek Stingley Junior participating in practice. You know Sting's

1029
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: been dealing with that opleaque. Willy Anderson was just a

1030
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: rest day for him, not injury relay. They're just getting

1031
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: a rest day for him. Fully fought a Cassi did

1032
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: not participate deal with shoulder, which I hated seeing now

1033
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: limited participants. Harrison Bryant saw him kind of get dinged

1034
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: up a little bit of the game dealing with shoulder.

1035
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,880
Speaker 1: Nico Collins deal with a knee, and I think I

1036
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: remember when that happened. It was right at the end

1037
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: of the third quarter. He took a crosser and got

1038
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: tackled on the Titan sideline and he came down. I

1039
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 1: remember him waving over somebody like hey, go in the game,

1040
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: going to game. But he ended up finishing the game

1041
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: and was okay. So hopefully Niko will be okay. But

1042
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,919
Speaker 1: he was a limited participant now. Two other limited participants

1043
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: are Nico de Nico Autry and Jalen Reid. They're both

1044
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: on here with knees, but those are the injuries they

1045
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 1: were rehabbing. They'd started the year on injury reserve. Those

1046
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: two are seemingly going to be designated to return. They

1047
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: have their window open for the next three weeks now.

1048
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 1: If they don't get added to the fifty three man

1049
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: roster of the next three weeks for whatever reason, then

1050
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 1: their season is over. If they are well than they are,

1051
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: and then they play this season out and away we go.

1052
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 1: But good to see Denico Autry back at practice, good

1053
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: to see Jalen Reed back at practice. Doesn't mean they'll

1054
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: be on the fifty three this week. Doesn't mean they'll

1055
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,880
Speaker 1: be active. It just means their practice window has been opened.

1056
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: They could be out there running around, making plays and

1057
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 1: doing some things at practice.

1058
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 2: Now.

1059
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: I mentioned twenty seventeen Week two the Texans in twenty

1060
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: seventeen as you remember, obviously, Hurricane Harvey hit.

1061
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 2: We were all jacked up from that to go into

1062
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 2: the game.

1063
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: Needed a good start to the season to take on Jacksonville.

1064
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:43,479
Speaker 1: Jacksonville kicked the absolute crap out of us. Even more

1065
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,760
Speaker 1: so was the fact that the Texans were physically beaten

1066
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: up in that game. There were twenty one guys on

1067
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: the injury report, most of them in the DNP or

1068
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: limited participation category. As the Texans got ready to play

1069
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game against the Bengals, I remember flying

1070
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 1: to Cincinnati going, I don't even know if we have

1071
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: enough guys to play. I don't, I don't know, but

1072
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,399
Speaker 1: we had a feeling that Sean Watson was going to start,

1073
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: so there was excitement about that.

1074
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:12,839
Speaker 2: Texans ended up winning that game.

1075
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: Deshaun had that long run for a touchdown and they

1076
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: did win that game in large part because Deshaun was

1077
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,720
Speaker 1: able to throw DeAndre Hopkins in the fourth quarter, running

1078
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: some clumps and plays as we were told after the fact,

1079
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: and the Texans went out of there with a win.

1080
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 2: Kind of circle.

1081
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 1: The Wagons played a bunch of rookies at tackle because

1082
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:30,359
Speaker 1: all the tackles were hurt.

1083
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 2: Everybody was dead it was just ridiculous.

1084
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: Well, I thought about that as I look at the

1085
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:41,879
Speaker 1: Ravens injury report two four six eight eight DNPS two

1086
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: for six limiteds. That's fourteen players on the fifty three

1087
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,760
Speaker 1: man roster. Minus one one is the one is Emery Jones.

1088
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: It's a rookie like Jalen Reid. The rookie went on

1089
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 1: IR to start the year. He is designated to return,

1090
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,920
Speaker 1: so same thing. They're opening up his practice window. So

1091
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:07,840
Speaker 1: thirteen players dnper limited that either played on Sunday against

1092
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,760
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and got hurt or had missed a few games.

1093
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 2: It goes as follows.

1094
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:19,240
Speaker 1: Starting quarterback chadobi Uzia hamstring, starting cornerback Marlon Humphrey calf,

1095
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: full back Patrick Ricard calf, inside linebacker Rokwan Smith hamstring,

1096
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:31,160

00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 1: the other day is that Marlin Humphrey will be out

1100
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 1: two weeks. He also said that Rokwan Smith would be

1101
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: out two weeks, that they would not play in this game.

1102
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: There's been no decision on that one hundred percent.

1103
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 2: We don't know that.

1104
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 1: The report we saw yesterday it was from the Baltimore

1105
00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: Sun saying that Lamar Jackson would be out two to

1106
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,880
Speaker 1: three weeks, which obviously would include this game. Those are

1107
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 1: all dnps. That includes Marlin Humphrey, Lamar Jackson, rokwand Smith,

1108
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley and then going on IR just before last

1109
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 1: week's game. Nom da madamik. Now why do I bring

1110
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: up those five names? Those are the five highest paid

1111
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:22,879
Speaker 1: players on the Ravens roster and they are all out

1112
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 1: in some capacity or did not participate at practice today.

1113
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 2: Limited. Now I didn't know about this one.

1114
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton All Pro safety deal with a groin, Travis Jones,

1115
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,479
Speaker 1: their big nose tackle a knee, Tyler Linderbaum starting center,

1116
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: a stud calf, Brent Urban starting defensive andil a finger

1117
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: at Kyle Anoy, who missed last week's game, and I

1118
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 1: think the one before that. He's missed the last couple

1119
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:48,839
Speaker 1: of games. He is really their edge presence. So why

1120
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 1: do I bring up that twenty seventeen game Week two,

1121
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 1: we circled the wagons, went on the road and beat

1122
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: a Cincinnati Bengals team that was really talented.

1123
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 2: We had to find a way to do it. They did.

1124
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: The Ravens may do the same thing. We'll see what

1125
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 1: the status is on Lamar Jackson, but some of the

1126
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: reports have said that he will not be available. But

1127
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna play this thing out. I would imagine we

1128
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 1: probably will not go on to plane with any kind

1129
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,719
Speaker 1: of clarity even as a status report comes out. My

1130
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: guess is they'll make him questionable, but deep down they

1131
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 1: know the answer. They know whether he's gonna play or

1132
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: whether he's not. Think back to Sting last week. Sting

1133
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,839
Speaker 1: was did not practice Wednesday, Thursday, thought no way, no way,

1134
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: He's playing, lived on Friday, played on Sunday, played his

1135
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:32,719
Speaker 1: guts out.

1136
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 2: So that's the injury report. It is long and lengthy.

1137
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 1: Today coming up nessor Appartio legend in the Baltimore area.

1138
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 1: On radio, he sat down with Mark. They're good friends.

1139
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: This is really fun. You want to stick around for this.

1140
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,920
Speaker 1: Next on Texans All Access, we got one hour of books,

1149
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: about that. And of course this ballgame the Texans have

1150
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: against the Ravens. I'm sure that'll get caught up or

1151
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,760
Speaker 1: that'll get brought up in the conversation, so you definitely

1152

Speaker 1: Mics mark not able to Get ravens played by Playman

1158
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 1: Jerry sandusky on the, air so he went one. Better

1159
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 1: Nestor apparicitio has been a radio legend for decades In.

1160
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,919

1162
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 4: Vanamer All, Right, nester these are tough times with The Baltimore,

1163
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,880
Speaker 4: ravens AND i don't expect you to have the health report.

1164
00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 4: THERE i know this is hip hop kind of. Stuff

1165
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 4: but just give me an overall. Pick, sure one in three,

1166
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 4: start so many guys banged, up not at all what

1167
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 4: they were.

1168
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:05,839
Speaker 6: Thinking what do you think?

1169
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,280
Speaker 8: Overall, WELL i think it's hard to win with That Lamar, jackson,

1170
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 8: Right SO i mean The Rokwan smith situation. Bad the

1171
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 8: front seven, defensively the whole front's not been very. Good

1172
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 8: they've lost Matt A. Beekay he's not gonna play. Bad

1173
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 8: these are bad things for stopping the. Run they were

1174
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 8: not good at rushing the. Passer But lamar above and beyond.

1175
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 8: Everything With Cooper rush playing instead Of, lamar that just

1176
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 8: Changes it just changes everything about what they want to.

1177
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 8: Do but certainly running the ball should have been at

1178
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 8: the top of what they wanted to do to begin.

1179
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 8: With and that's an offensive line issue as much as

1180
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,800
Speaker 8: it's A Derek henry. Issue or even if they Activate

1181
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,360
Speaker 8: Keaton mitchell and they Have Justice hill to run the.

1182
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 8: Ball If Cooper rush is, playing the running game becomes

1183
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 8: literally everything that they want to. Do AND i Know

1184
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,360
Speaker 8: Cooper rush passed for a couple hundred yards against you

1185
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 8: guys last year In, dallas BUT i don't expect the

1186
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 8: offense to look like, THAT i would expect it to

1187
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,320
Speaker 8: Be Derek henry, Right derek hemy, left and If lamar,

1188
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 8: plays the question on the hamstring would be ay whether

1189
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 8: it's smart to play him and whether it's safe to play?

1190
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 8: Him and if he can't take off and, run you're

1191
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 8: really kind of taking away his special. Power SO i

1192
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,680
Speaker 8: think all of the injuries Sotality Marlin, Humphrey Nate wiggins

1193
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 8: on the back. End the defensive injuries are, devastating but

1194
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 8: The lamar thing for their chances of winning A Super

1195
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 8: bowl or being a playoff team or winning the, division

1196
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 8: which is The steelers are, coming but The bengals And

1197
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 8: browns Think lamar's the big story.

1198
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 2: Here were you.

1199
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 4: Surprised that The bills put up forty one or The

1200
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 4: lions put up thirty eight injuries, Aside, well The bills

1201
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 4: did it all.

1202
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 2: At the, end right was a fourth quarter.

1203
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,760
Speaker 8: FLURRY i think the pass rush has been so suspect

1204
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 8: from the. BEGINNING i, mean there's just been. None kyle

1205
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 8: Van noy's been, injured adafe O way has not really

1206
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 8: Been he's making thirteen million dollars this, year he's a

1207
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 8: he's in a walk. YEAR i see no scenario where

1208
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 8: they would resign. Him and they liked, him but they

1209
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,320
Speaker 8: don't like him that. Much and the pass rush IS

1210
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 8: i think been at the heart of their problem of

1211
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 8: not getting a pressure on good, quarterbacks Right AND i

1212
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:14,799
Speaker 8: think The detroit front line was fantastic and they're gonna

1213
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 8: see The rams next week after they see, you and

1214
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 8: that's gonna be problematic as. Well defensively for. Them the

1215
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 8: offensive line has. Struggled the defensive line and struggle for the,

1216
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 8: team and that speaks to their one and three start.

1217
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,399
Speaker 4: All, Right Nest SOMETIMES i read the mean tweets and

1218
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 4: what's the narrative On lamar because obviously there are a

1219
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 4: lot of keyboard gangsters out there in, cyberspace but, overall

1220
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 4: the narrative On Lamar jackson in the city Of baltimore right, now.

1221
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 8: There's always, Racism so you know any of. THAT i

1222
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,320
Speaker 8: always get into that when it's black and white and

1223
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 8: It's Josh allen And. Lamar so part of the CRITICISM

1224
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 8: i take at that. Level once you've won two, MVPs

1225
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 8: you've been cheated out of another. One so when it

1226
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 8: comes To, lamar the energy on him is winning a

1227
00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:00,720
Speaker 8: game in Late. January there's nothing he can Domber, October,

1228
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,920
Speaker 8: November december to impress. EVERYONE i think he's impressed everyone

1229
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 8: in the. League he's won. MVPs the story is what

1230
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,120
Speaker 8: what do they look like In? January what is their?

1231
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 8: Pathway and their pathway has been At. Buffalo their pathway

1232
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,359
Speaker 8: has been on the. Road their pathway has been home

1233
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 8: where they've LOST anfc championship game against The. Chiefs so

1234
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:22,360
Speaker 8: they've lost it in every way, possible Including Mark andrews

1235
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 8: dropping a ball in the ice up In buffalo last

1236
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 8: year in a two point. Conversion lamar has done enough

1237
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 8: to win some playoff games and has been on the

1238
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 8: other end of the ugly record that he has at

1239
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 8: two and five in the, Playoffs so the snapshot on

1240
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,480
Speaker 8: him is, playoffs, playoffs. Playoffs the first words out of

1241
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 8: his mouth when he was drafted his green suit that

1242
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:44,719
Speaker 8: night as the last pick in the first round and

1243
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 8: eight team was you're going to have a Super.

1244
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 2: Bowl believe.

1245
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 8: That and we have shirts here to say bleed at

1246
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,279
Speaker 8: because that's kind of how he said, it and they

1247
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 8: haven't had that, yet AND i think that is the

1248
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:00,120
Speaker 8: only you, know that's All lamar has to. Do i've

1249
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,399
Speaker 8: hosted a championship game at, home lost. It they've been

1250
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:04,360
Speaker 8: on the, Road they've had chances to. Win he's thrown

1251
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 8: passes that would have won. Games now it's about winning

1252
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 8: games and winning A Super, bowl and he just can't

1253
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 8: do that In september and we can't even talk about that.

1254
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:12,360
Speaker 2: When they're one to.

1255
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 4: Three, REALLY i feel like coaches who have won A

1256
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 4: Super bowl HAVE i don't know this, tenure if you,

1257
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,600
Speaker 4: will when you talk About Mike, tomlin when you talk

1258
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 4: About Sean, Payton John harbaugh as, Well not that they're doing.

1259
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 4: Badly these coaches get to the playoffs, regularly that kind of.

1260
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 4: Thing what's the? Narrative same question On John harbaugh head.

1261
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,080
Speaker 4: COACH i can go either way On, john AND i

1262
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 4: have my own personal. Opinions you can google.

1263
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 8: That But John harball's career has been made and he

1264
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 8: has been saved for a couple of. Things Drafting Lamar

1265
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,760
Speaker 8: jackson saved his. CAREER i would call it the third

1266
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 8: quartile right like there Was Joe flacco won the first

1267
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,399
Speaker 8: five years championship game, loss playoff losses when they BEAT.

1268
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 8: Tj yeats And flacco couldn't even move at that point

1269
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 8: because he was injured during that playoff. Run but The

1270
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,480
Speaker 8: Super bowl, RUN i Mean flaco through the pass To

1271
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,239
Speaker 8: Lee evans And Billy kundiff missed the kick in The

1272
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 8: Billy Kundiff foxburg. Game hardball sat on a time out

1273
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 8: they lost AN afc championship, game and instead of getting

1274
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 8: his kicker of time to set, up he ate a

1275
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 8: time out at the end of that championship. Game forgotten

1276
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 8: about because they came back the next year and won

1277
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 8: The Super. Bowl when they won The Super, bowl they

1278
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 8: were down to their last breath with your Guy Jacobe

1279
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 8: jones in The Mile High miracle. Game if not for

1280
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:29,320
Speaker 8: The Mile High, miracle there is No Super. Bowl And

1281
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 8: John harmost probably not probably certainly not stole the coach

1282
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,800
Speaker 8: of The ravens if he hadn't won That Super. Bowl

1283
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:36,880
Speaker 8: so YOU'RE i, mean it's in a student observation to,

1284
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 8: say why is he the? Coach, Well STEVE. A shotti

1285
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 8: thinks of him as a, son And Steve ashott he's

1286
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:44,359
Speaker 8: never going to fire a coach, again as pretty much said.

1287
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 8: That john's got three more years on the deal, now,

1288
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 8: Right SO i don't Think john's going. ANYWHERE i think

1289
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:53,880
Speaker 8: the narrative on his career for me IS i, mean

1290
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 8: they Almost they had four downs at the one yard

1291
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:57,640
Speaker 8: line to his brother in The Super bowl In San,

1292
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,399
Speaker 8: francisco and they squandered a twenty four point lead The Super.

1293
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,399
Speaker 8: Bowl so you, Know john has some marks against him

1294
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 8: even on his best. Days to, say they had some

1295
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 8: very very good fortune to get the one ring that he,

1296
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,840
Speaker 8: has and certainly the good fortune of Drafting Lamar jackson,

1297
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 8: right and his role in, that and then HIS i

1298
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 8: mean early on he was a bulliant in getting rid

1299
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 8: Of flacco and Bringing lamar. In he talked about, revolution

1300
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 8: and this is When lamar is running for two hundred

1301
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 8: yards a week and nobody knows how to stop, this

1302
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 8: and nobody could figure this out in, eighteen nineteen and.

1303
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 8: TWENTY i think it feels a little different now when

1304
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 8: you start to lose some playoff games And john's kind

1305
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:42,320
Speaker 8: of he's beaten up here more than anything for throwing

1306
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 8: really bad challenge. Flags john has all of that that

1307
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 8: male fire about him in the, moment and he loses

1308
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 8: himself in his sock with his red flag and he's

1309
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 8: not listening to. Anyone no one's telling HIM i saw.

1310
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 8: It he just guts it and throws and he's lost

1311
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,759
Speaker 8: a lot of. Challenges so there's a point with. That

1312
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 8: but as far as having them ready to play on

1313
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,040
Speaker 8: a week by week, basis over eighteen, seasons they don't

1314
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 8: get blown out. Much they don't have games like they

1315
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 8: had this week where they really they got embarrassed by The,

1316
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 8: chiefs AND i don't know what they can do about

1317
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:21,160
Speaker 8: that against The texans this week when they are Without

00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 8: guys in. Peril that's a lot of football player and

1322
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,240
Speaker 8: that's a lot of, leadership best. Players guys you're counting

Speaker 8: On sunday against The texans or they're going to be.

1325
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 8: DIMINISHED i mean That lamar with a bad, HAMSTRING i

1326
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:50,839
Speaker 8: don't know what that is. Now you would make fun

1327
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 8: of that five years. Ago so we can't. Pass we

1328
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 8: all know he can stand in the pocket and. Pass

1329
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 8: he's been sacked so many times this year AND i

1330
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 8: keep sort of asking why the offensive line isn't very.

1331
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,400
Speaker 8: Good he pats the, ball he hangs in the. Pocket

1332
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 8: he is A. Houdini he believes he's going to extend

1333
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 8: that play into a touchdown somehow because he's done it

1334
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,960
Speaker 8: so many. Times and now he's getting. Sacked and if

1335
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:16,320
Speaker 8: he can't, MOVE i, mean that's a that's a party

1336
00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 8: for the front seven of The. Texans is give Me

1337
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:21,360
Speaker 8: Lamar jackson a LITTLE gimpi, well.

1338
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 2: That takes away his.

1339
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 8: SUPERPOWER i mean to, me that is the thing that

1340
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 8: everyone's worried about him running past. You if you don't

1341
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 8: have to worry about him running past, YOU i think

1342
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 8: it makes it easier to defend.

1343
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 2: Him, nester you are A baltimore.

1344

1345
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 4: That so The ravens are a fascinating franchise to me

1346
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 4: for a number of. Reasons they wear The, Browns they

1347
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 4: go into a city where The colts were, king and

1348
00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 4: what is the relationship now with The colts and the

1349

1353
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,959
Speaker 4: for me, personally, especially The colts are the mortal. Enemy

1354
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,200
Speaker 4: they're the Nemesis Peyton manning all of that. Stuff AND

1439
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 8: just be biting at the bit BECAUSE i hated that

1440

Speaker 8: years ago AND i just, Said i'm not gonna carry.

1443

1450
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 8: angst about The colts and part of the fact that

1451
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:21,000
Speaker 8: it's just they're only a handful of men still alive

1452

Speaker 8: who wore The Baltimore colts uniform who are in our

1453
01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:26,040
Speaker 8: community that we can even see and feel in. Touch

1454
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 8: but it's special to anybody my age and, older and

1455
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:33,360

Speaker 1: up playing and we go back and we look at

1536
01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:30,120

1589
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,679
Speaker 4: game planned well on short. Notice Jacoby, brissett third string

1590
01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 4: quarterback they gained planned for him and he started out

1591
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 4: a string of starts against The Houston texans that were very.

1592
01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 4: SUCCESSFUL i think he's five and two all time as

1593
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 4: a starter against The. Texans in various, buildings in various,

1594
01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 4: buildings as far as teams that own those, buildings because

1595
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:54,800
Speaker 4: as a, patriot as a, dolphin as a, Cult Colt

1596
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 4: brissett has beat you with all those, teams all those.

1597
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,479

1602
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:15,519

1655
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:48,240
Speaker 1: edelman got up and it was a reaction like he

1656
01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:50,800

1657
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,160
Speaker 1: just caught the fourth touchdown of FOUR us having that.

1658
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:56,320
Speaker 1: Day he got up and just got all in the

1659
01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 1: face of our defensive, back AND i, thought we're in

1660
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 1: a lot Of we were in a lot of trouble

1661
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,960
Speaker 1: because they just did this with a third string.

1662
01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:08,160
Speaker 2: Quarterback and that was a. Year in twenty sixteen.

1663
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 1: Because The brocks, signing we had also Signed Lamar miller

1664
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: that Year Jeff allen was, signed we thought this is.

1665
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 1: IT i though a lot of people felt, Like, okay

1666
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 1: here we. Go first two games were pretty good at,

1667
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,719
Speaker 1: home and then this happened And brock was twenty four forty,

1668
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 1: one forty one, attempts one hundred and ninety six.

1669
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,000
Speaker 2: Yards that was forty one.

1670
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:29,719
Speaker 4: Attempts you only get less than two hundred. Yards, look

1671
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 4: that was a year of winning some good games at

1672
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 4: home and getting blown out of the.

1673
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 1: Road of the game The patriots The broncos On, Monday

1674
01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: alcos was.

1675
01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:40,920
Speaker 6: Not a, blowout but it was a win for.

1676
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 2: Them it was.

1677
01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 4: Tough and then you had that three game losing straight

1678
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,040
Speaker 4: toward the end of the year with The, raiders The

1679
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:48,679
Speaker 4: chargers and The Green Bay. Packers but then you pulled

1680
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:50,519
Speaker 4: it together and won the. Division that was kind of. Cool,

1681
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:52,360
Speaker 4: Yeah so that was good and you want a playoff

1682
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:54,759
Speaker 4: game that year as. Well brock has a winning record

1683
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 4: as a starter for The Houston. Texas, yeah this is

1684
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 4: just the. Same it's very.

1685
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 1: TRUE i think in going back and just thinking through

1686
01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:08,960
Speaker 1: these games in which a, substitute a backup quarterback has

1687
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,160
Speaker 1: stepped in a it's been against really good. Teams The

1688
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:15,080
Speaker 1: ravens are a really good, team and there's no question about.

1689
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 2: That.

1690
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 1: Obviously twenty eighteen was a year in Which Dereck henry

1691
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:22,920
Speaker 1: they didn't need much and they got. Enough they got

1692
01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:26,680
Speaker 1: The Kruk shank, touchdown Then lamar went OR i mean Not,

1693
01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Derek henry went Wild.

1694
01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:30,400
Speaker 2: Henry that ended up being a.

1695
01:13:30,439 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: Touchdown, yeah and then they end up kicking the two

1696
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:34,040
Speaker 1: field goals at the. END i, mean it was like

1697
01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 1: they didn't need to do a whole lot because offensively

1698
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:41,720
Speaker 1: that day we just were way way too challenged to

1699
01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,160
Speaker 1: do anything. CONSISTENTLY i Remember Will fuller took over that,

1700
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:45,960
Speaker 1: game but it was just it was a little bit too.

1701
01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:48,120
Speaker 1: Late we took that seventeen fourteen lead and, thought, eh

1702
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 1: we're good and then ended up blowing that.

1703
01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 4: Lead all, right, well let's get back to what they

1704
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:56,759
Speaker 4: need to. Do, here, yeap which is the whole point

1705
01:13:56,800 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 4: of this. Segment don't overlook these things't over don't bite

1706
01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:04,200
Speaker 4: the don't take the, bait don't bite the cheese in the,

1707
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:07,680
Speaker 4: trap don't do all of that, stuff because they're coming for.

1708
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 6: You they need this one.

1709
01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:11,680
Speaker 4: Badly they're gonna put together a game plan with what

1710
01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:14,080
Speaker 4: they have to work, with and they've got plenty to work.

1711
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 2: With they still have these.

1712
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:18,559
Speaker 4: Receivers, johnny they still Have, flowers they still Have DeAndre,

1713
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:19,599
Speaker 4: hopkins remember.

1714
01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:20,560
Speaker 2: Him they still Have.

1715
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 4: Bateman Mark andrews is, Devastating isaiah likely he is tough to.

1716
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:28,280
Speaker 4: Stop Cooper rush as a winning record as a, Starter

1717
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,400
Speaker 4: he's won nine games as a starting one to five

1718
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:32,160
Speaker 4: as a, Starter AND i know that you beat him

1719
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 4: last year In, dallas but all, right that was a

1720
01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,800
Speaker 4: Depleted dallas team at the time and doesn't.

1721
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,320
Speaker 2: Matter but even If jackson was.

1722
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 4: Healthy you want to look for some hope here with

1723
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:44,559
Speaker 4: what The ravens have done so, far and it's actually

1724
01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:46,639
Speaker 4: in A ravens win because everyone's making a big deal

1725
01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 4: about their. Record but they lost to three really great.

1726
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:51,639
Speaker 4: Teams they lost to The, chiefs The lions of The Buffalo.

1727
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:53,599
Speaker 4: Bills they gave up a lot of points to those

1728
01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:56,400
Speaker 4: teams that you can get to That cleveland played them

1729
01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:59,800
Speaker 4: better than you. Think cleveland does not have. Offense we

1730
01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 4: ALL i know, that But cleveland still ran for over

1731
01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:05,160
Speaker 4: one hundred against, them five point two per. Carry and

1732
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:09,040
Speaker 4: it's not skewed by long runs or run. Right judkins

1733
01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 4: ran for sixty one yards on ten carries for thirty

1734
01:15:12,479 --> 01:15:16,120
Speaker 4: one on six, carries, Okay so they had a little something.

1735
01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:16,280
Speaker 2: Going on the.

1736
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 4: Ground they couldn't stick to it because they turned the

1737
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 4: ball over twice and had a punt blocked all, right

1738
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,120
Speaker 4: and one of the turnovers was a fumble return for

1739
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:27,439
Speaker 4: a touchdown By Rokwan. Smith so in that, game The

1740
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,120
Speaker 4: browns actually did some good things. Defensively you, Know Derek

1741
01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:32,920
Speaker 4: henry only had twenty three Yards Dereck henry against The

1742
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 4: browns defense two point one yards per, carry eleven, carries

1743
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 4: twenty three.

1744
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:41,799
Speaker 2: Yards that's not, bad. Okay and yet The ravens scored

1745
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:42,360
Speaker 2: forty one.

1746
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:44,519
Speaker 4: Points they scored forty one because they had the short

1747
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:49,080
Speaker 4: fields off turnovers and the fumble return for a, touchdown

1748
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,439
Speaker 4: and The ravens only had one drive that was longer

1749
01:15:52,479 --> 01:15:53,120
Speaker 4: than fifty one.

1750
01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,200
Speaker 2: Yards it was a sixty six yard touchdown.

1751
01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:59,639
Speaker 4: Drive so this is A ravens team that's not playing

1752
01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:03,439
Speaker 4: up to a par offensively, anyway even with Healthy Lamar, jackson,

1753
01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:05,920
Speaker 4: Right so that's a little bit of hope for you.

1754
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:08,680
Speaker 4: There Now Without Lamar, jackson you feel like it's a

1755
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:11,000
Speaker 4: circle the. Wagons we're gonna pound the, Ball we're gonna

1756
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 4: we're gonna Bootleg cooper, Rush we're gonna play, Fake we're

1757
01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:14,600
Speaker 4: gonna throw To.

1758
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:16,400
Speaker 6: Andrews we're gonna make some things happen like.

1759
01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:19,439
Speaker 4: That flowers is speedy as a, receiver real tough to,

1760
01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:22,280
Speaker 4: cover you, know as you suck everybody up With henry

1761
01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:24,160
Speaker 4: the thread of, him and maybe you can get some

1762
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 4: things done. Offensively that's what they're. Thinking i'm thinking the

1763
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 4: number is twenty. Here if you hold them, below can

1764
01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 4: you get to twenty against That baltimore, defense which is

1765
01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:33,719
Speaker 4: not what they were last?

1766
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:35,599
Speaker 6: Year they are not who they were last.

1767
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:37,519
Speaker 4: YEAR i just pointed out The browns ran for one

1768
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:39,719
Speaker 4: fifteen on them in a game in which they really

1769
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,639
Speaker 4: shouldn't be running much because they were facing a deficit

1770
01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:46,560
Speaker 4: in the second. Half SO i think there's some opportunities

1771
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 4: here that you could take advantage of against This baltimore.

1772
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:54,080
Speaker 1: Team AND i think two Things number one defensive Or

1773
01:16:54,520 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 1: texans offense against their. Defense whenever Ro Kwan smith has

1774
01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:58,720
Speaker 1: been on the other side of the, field it has

1775
01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,439
Speaker 1: been a probleman have really not been able to do.

1776
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,720
Speaker 1: Much even you, know in twenty twenty two when he

1777
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:06,920
Speaker 1: was with The, bears he really didn't have a lot around.

1778
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:09,519
Speaker 1: Him it was Basically, rokuan but he was a single

1779
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:12,720
Speaker 1: Handed he was A he was a wrecking machine that.

1780
01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:14,799
Speaker 2: Day and it ends.

1781
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: Up having a tip pass interception that gave The bears

1782
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:19,760
Speaker 1: an opportunity to kick a game winning field. Goal at that,

1783
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 1: point he gets traded The. Ravens he fits The ravens perfectly

1784
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:27,120
Speaker 1: in the middle of that. Defense he sets the absolute

1785
01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:30,080
Speaker 1: tone for that. Defense so kind of diving into the.

1786
01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:32,880
Speaker 1: Game that's one of. Them is what Is roquwan's. Hell

1787
01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:35,880
Speaker 1: everybody will talk About, Lamar, Hey lamar Is lamar gonna? Play,

1788
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 1: Yes lamar Is, obviously everybody talks about the. Quarterbacks but

1789
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:40,400
Speaker 1: the ONE i will keep an eye on is what

1790
01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:41,200
Speaker 1: Is rokwan's?

1791
01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:42,520
Speaker 2: Situation.

1792
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 1: Now Ian rappaport reported that it was a thing he

1793
01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:51,599
Speaker 1: called A grade two hamstring strain that was at at

1794
01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:55,320
Speaker 1: a minimum two. Weeks If Rokuan smith is out of that,

1795
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,360
Speaker 1: GAME i can't tell you how big a factor that

1796
01:17:57,520 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 1: is for this.

1797
01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:01,120
Speaker 2: Offense that is a huge factor for this. Offense and

1798
01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:01,719
Speaker 2: keep in.

1799
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:06,679
Speaker 1: Mind the last offensive touchdown The texans have scored against

1800
01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 1: The ravens OCCURRED covid year twenty twenty At Darren fell's

1801
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:12,960
Speaker 1: touchdown pass, reception and that's.

1802
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 2: It that's.

1803
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,360
Speaker 1: It so Since Dimiko rance so twenty twenty three twice

01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:54,439
Speaker 1: the second half of that playoff game is a third

1841
01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:59,160
Speaker 1: and seventh throw goes right Between Jayla petrie is jumping

1842
01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:01,840
Speaker 1: up to knockdown a because he's, blitzing and the ball

1843
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: literally goes right through his. Hands and then the next

1844
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:06,680
Speaker 1: play he has an interception in his hands in the end,

1845
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:09,000
Speaker 1: zone but he's kind of diving and as he's rolling,

1846
01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:11,400
Speaker 1: over the ball comes. Out the next play Is Lamar jackson.

1868
01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:11,680

1869
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,120

1870
01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:16,639

Speaker 4: sixteen sent it to.

1872
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,280
Speaker 6: Overtime that was. TREMENDOUS i, mean.

1873
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:22,360
Speaker 4: That would be if The texans were able to pull

1874
01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:24,880
Speaker 4: that one, out because they actually stopped The ravens in.

1875
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,400
Speaker 4: Overtime then the pick, six if The texans were able

1876
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:30,000
Speaker 4: to pull that one, out that would be absolutely monumental

1877
01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:31,880
Speaker 4: in the history of this, franchise.

1878
01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:32,240
Speaker 2: And it might.

1879
01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:33,880
Speaker 4: Have they still had a chance to be a Top,

1880
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:36,439

Speaker 2: Situation, yeah and the other.

1907
01:22:57,080 --> 01:23:01,160
Speaker 1: Overall you, know obviously With roquand there's some things if

1908
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,840
Speaker 1: he's out of the, game you, know, schematically some things

1909
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:05,839
Speaker 1: you look. At that's still going to be The ravens.

1910
01:23:05,880 --> 01:23:07,920
Speaker 1: Defense And demiko says it all the. Time we got

1911
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:09,920
Speaker 1: to we got to play The ravens. Defense we are

1912
01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:11,439
Speaker 1: just playing one. Guy if that guy's out of, there

1913
01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:13,200
Speaker 1: they aren't going to change. Everything they're going to run

1914
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:15,320
Speaker 1: what they. Want a man, down they still get to

1915
01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:17,719
Speaker 1: put eleven on the they do they, do and even

1916
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 1: at that, point we've not done really well against. THEM

1917
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:25,040
Speaker 1: i think a kind of higher level zooming out sort of.

1918
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,840
Speaker 1: Situation and WHAT i noticed about the games in which

1919
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback beat, us those famous games we just talked,

1920
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:38,840
Speaker 1: about is we made mistakes that you just can't. Make

1921
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:41,920
Speaker 1: brought through a bad interception in that game at twenty,

1922
01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:45,519
Speaker 1: sixteen we gave up the crookshank touchdown to start the

1923
01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:49,880
Speaker 1: game at twenty, eighteen and those things you know in

1924
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:53,719
Speaker 1: the hassleback in a diaper, game they come right out

1925
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,280
Speaker 1: and and go right down the field and score on,

1926
01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:58,639
Speaker 1: us like our defense hasn't even woken up With Andre

1927
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:01,599
Speaker 1: johnson playing. Receiver, YEAH i was gonna try and avoid

1928
01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 1: that one because that just makes me more. Sad but point,

1929
01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 1: being if you play a clean game in all, phases

1930
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 1: like you don't give anything to them with potentially a backup,

1931
01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 1: quarterback with a backup, linebacker with some of these names

1932
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:20,879
Speaker 1: that we've talked about that have given us such heartache

1933
01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:22,439
Speaker 1: over the years because they're so damn.

1934
01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:25,880
Speaker 2: Good you should be in a position to win that.

1935
01:24:25,960 --> 01:24:28,840
Speaker 1: Game but you can't hand them seven because they run

1936
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:31,120
Speaker 1: a you, Know Thailand wallace runs a pump back on

1937
01:24:31,160 --> 01:24:34,200
Speaker 1: you to keep. Them that's the thing you can't have

1938
01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 1: now you have. Exactly and if you get a, lead

1939
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,000
Speaker 1: get a bigger. Lead if you're winning in the fourth,

1940
01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:43,719
Speaker 1: quarter extend, this extend that lead in the fourth. Quarter

1941
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 1: you cannot play a mistake field, game a bunch of.

1942
01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 1: Penalties you can't start first and fifteen on drives because

1943
01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:52,200
Speaker 1: that's a place you've never.

1944
01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:53,320
Speaker 2: Won of those fans know, It.

1945
01:24:53,640 --> 01:24:55,479
Speaker 1: They know all, Right, yeah we might be Without lamar

1946
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:58,400
Speaker 1: and we might be About, rokuwan but we always beat The. Texans,

1947
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:01,920
Speaker 1: yeah like we used to, think except for a couple

1948
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:03,880
Speaker 1: of weeks ago against The. Jaguars we used to think, that,

1949
01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:05,960
Speaker 1: hey we're going To Duval, county that's where we get.

1950
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:08,679
Speaker 2: Well and what. Happened we walked out of their own.

1951
01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:11,880
Speaker 1: One you're zero to three at that, Point so The

1952
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,000
Speaker 1: ravens have got to be feeling that. Way two in

1953
01:25:14,040 --> 01:25:16,320
Speaker 1: The ravens, Fans, look The texans are coming at the right,

1954
01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:17,639
Speaker 1: time doesn't.

1955
01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:19,160
Speaker 2: Matter we hold them. Down they haven't scored.

1956
01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:19,240
Speaker 4: IT.

1957
01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:21,240
Speaker 2: Cj strove's not throw a touchdown pass against.

1958
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:23,240
Speaker 1: Us they've not scored a touchdown pass in the games

1959
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,639
Speaker 1: they've played against us Since Dimiko ryans has started.

1960
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 2: Coaching and their.

1961
01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:28,960
Speaker 1: Mine they're, thinking this is our opportunity to get win

1962
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,080
Speaker 1: number two and playing at a place they've never. Won

1963
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 1: we're taking care of. Business but you can't give them that.

1964
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:37,840
Speaker 1: Opportunity if they're gonna win the, game they got to

1965
01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:39,280
Speaker 1: go take it from. You that's the way that you

Speaker 1: if all those guys are out.

1968
01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:43,040
Speaker 2: That they can do.

1969
01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:45,680
Speaker 1: That but what they can do is if you hand

1970
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:47,920
Speaker 1: them a few, gifts they can open those gifts on

1971
01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:49,120
Speaker 1: you and end up taking you to the.

1972
