Happy Monday, everybody, Welcome into 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: another edition of Texas All Access from the Honday Texans 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: Radio Studio. I am your host, John Harris, Football Animals 4 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: and sideline reporter, and I'm sure, just like all of you, 5 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: very pleased to be here on a Monday, and in 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: a world in which the Texans have a one game 7 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: winning streak over the New England Patriots twenty eight to 8 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: twenty two. The Texans get the win at home. The 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: only other time the Texans that being the Patriots was 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: ten years ago. There was not a Texan in the stadium. 11 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: Actually I shouldn't say that there was a Texan in 12 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 1: the stadium. He was just a Patriot that time. Bill 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: O'Brien was the offensive coordinator in two thousand nine for 14 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots when the Patriots ended up getting beat by 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: the Texans that day. He is the head coach for 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: the Texans last night to get a win over Tom 17 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: Brady the Patriots. And it was a long time coming. Obviously, 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: everybody knows that, anybody, I mean the the one player, 19 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: the earliest that any of these players got a locker 20 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 1: room was John Weeks of twenty ten. They've all experienced 21 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: louss the Patriots. Some gut punch grueling losses, some just 22 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: I mean down to the last final second, some just 23 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: not even in the game from the beginning. Last night, 24 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: after sort of a little rocky start, hit the Boosters 25 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 1: about late first quarter, through halftime and through the third quarter, 26 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: and it was on the Texas get a twenty eight 27 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: to twenty two win. And it was a fascinating night. 28 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: There were some there were some Patriots fans in the stands. 29 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: And I did our Texas and Limited show at Deepcity, 30 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: and we were on the Patriots sideline. We shoot it 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: and we shoot it that way so we can video 32 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: the players warming up, and so we put our camera 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,600 Speaker 1: on that sideline shooting out and so we were over 34 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: there and as I was about to go on, Tom 35 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: Brady came out for pregame and he runs out of 36 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: that Southeast tunnel and they're coming down the field and 37 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: as he comes on the field, I hear what it 38 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: sounds like a woman's voice, and it's almost like she's hyperventilating, 39 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: like she cannot comprehend the fact that Tom Brady isn't 40 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: the same region that she's in. She's just losing her mind, 41 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: and the Patriots fans are going crazy. I look around, 42 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my gosh, you're a lot of Patriots 43 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: fan that's here. And Mark noted it on Texas Monday 44 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: this morning when he talked about the fact that Patriots 45 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: fans it's hard to get a ticket up in Julette 46 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: and they travel pretty well. They become a national brand, 47 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: and I mean, you win, you become a national brand. 48 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: Gold State Warriors national brand, and anybody give a rats 49 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: you know what about Golden State before it started winning? No, 50 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: not really, but then you've got Steph Curry, Clay Clay Topson, 51 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: Traymon Green, you get all that. Then you went a championship, 52 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: you become a national brand, you get Gold State Warrior 53 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: fans all over to play. When did you become a 54 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: Warrior fan? I don't know, like twenty fifteen, Well, yeah, 55 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: when did you become a Patriot fan? Oh, I don't know, 56 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: like two thousand and one. I mean, you win, you 57 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: get And they had a ton of fans there, a ton, 58 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: and so I was a little worried about that, but 59 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: the Texans jumped up on them in that late first quarter, 60 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: on it the second quarter, and it really just kind 61 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: of nullified those fans. The only time that they kind 62 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: of jumped up started getting cocky about things was when 63 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: the willful or touchdown was overturned. Very next play, Bang 64 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: Bang Stills touchdown boom. That that to me was the 65 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: play where it was like yeah, hell yeah, sit down. 66 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: I just I don't know. That just felt really felt 67 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: really good, and I'm sure it felt good for Kenny Stills. 68 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: He's been a thorn in the side of the Patriots 69 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: man eight for one thirty five the last time he 70 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: was with Miami. Then last night he has the big 71 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: touchdown boy, big night. We'll break it all down through 72 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: today with Andre Ware, John McClain, we'll break it down 73 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: tomorrow and my Texas Replay show and then my time 74 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: replays over. It's on the Broncos Baby on to Denver. 75 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: But we gotta talk a little bit more about this one, 76 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: and we will, and as we said, we'll talk with 77 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: John McLain, w we'll talk to Andrea Ware. But we 78 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: gotta have our hot reads and hot reads brought to 79 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: you by Geico fifteen minutes conceiving fifteen percent or more 80 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: on car insurance. And we start a show on Monday 81 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: like this going around the NFL, and I like to 82 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: take a look at what happened with the league. If 83 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: you didn't get a chance to see all these games 84 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: and point out some of the things some of the 85 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: teams in Texas might play, some of things happening. And 86 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: there were three games on Thanksgiving, y'all know that, and 87 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: we talked about that a little bit. On Friday. The 88 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: Bears beat the Lions in a close game, Bills beat 89 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, Saints beat the Falcons. They're all very watchable 90 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: games and all intreating for different reasons. Bears Lions was 91 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: close all the way throughout, Saints with Drew Brees and 92 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: the Falcons making comebacks. The Bills Cowboys was the biggest margin, 93 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: but it was just kind of it was. It was 94 00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: weird to sit there and watch that game, going, my god, 95 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: Bills are really kicking their tail. What is going on? 96 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: I didn't think this is gonna happen, and it did. 97 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: Twenty six to fifteen. Now, what happened on Sunday, Well, 98 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: a start in Baltimore where the nine and two Ravens 99 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: took on the ten and one forty nine ers in 100 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: a driving rain storm, driving and that rain was a 101 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: result or that rain was the reason why these two 102 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: teams combined for two hundred and seventy passing yards really 103 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: couldn't get anything going in a passing game. George Kittle 104 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: sort of shut down because of that, only two cats 105 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: for seventeen yards. But for the forty nine ers where 106 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: he most start, ran for one hundred and forty six 107 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: yards and nineteen carries in a touch but it wasn't 108 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: enough because Lamar Jackson did Lamar Jackson things. He only 109 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: three four, one oh five, but he ran for one 110 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: oh one and a touchdown. He picked up a huge 111 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: start down conversion to keep a drive going at the 112 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: end of the ball game, which allowed Justin Tucker on 113 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: the final play of the game to knock it home 114 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: for forty nine yards. Out Ravens win and combine with 115 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: the Ravens win to make them tenant two and their 116 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: win over the Patriots earlier this year, the AFC number 117 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: one seed today as the Baltimore Ravens help from the 118 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: Texans last night. The Patriots are tenant two. The Ravens 119 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: are tenant two. The Patriots do not at a tiebreaker 120 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: that is owned by Baltimore at this point, so in 121 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: the AFC number one, Ravens number two, Patriots number three Texans. 122 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: Can the Texans get to one of those two spots? 123 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:46,799 Speaker 1: It's possible, possible, but it would entail the Patriots losing 124 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: twice at home. Is that possible? Possible? Chiefs this week, 125 00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: Bills in two weeks, so it's possible that you gotta 126 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: hope Port end up getting a buy. The Bills are 127 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: a good football team, so they they'll take the Patriots 128 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: all the way through those sixty minutes. But we'll see 129 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: how the Patriots, who spawned this week because Pat Mahomes 130 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: and a pretty healthy Chiefs group coming to Gullette Stadium. 131 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: Either way, Ravens win. Ravens win the Chiefs forty to 132 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: nine over the Raiders, and I don't even know if 133 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: it was that close. This was a spanking all the 134 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: way through. Pat Mahomes not even fifty percent, fifteen to 135 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: twenty nine, four one seventy five, one of the lower 136 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: ratings he's had of eighty one point eight. The story, 137 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: the defense one Thornhill pick six, Tyrn Matthew interception, sack 138 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: Derek Carr twice. They held the Raiders in check all day. 139 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: Really wasn't a huge offense of game for the Chiefs 140 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: only ran for ninety six, but they were able to 141 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: make plays when they needed to and kept the Raiders 142 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: from doing much anything. Those two interceptions a huge part 143 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: of the story. Chiefs spank Raiders. Maybe the Chiefs have 144 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: founded defense. Chiefs are number four in the AFC At 145 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: this particular moment in the NFC, Redskins played the Panthers. 146 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: This was all about the Redskins running game. Darius Guys 147 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: ten carries, one hundred and twenty nine yards, two touchdowns. 148 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: Ad Adrian Peterson all day, thirteen attempts, ninety nine yards 149 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: in a touch They ran thirty times for two hundred 150 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: forty eight yards and three touchdowns. Redskins win. They are 151 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: still mathematically alive for the NFC East at three and nine. 152 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna pause and let you take that in for 153 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: a second, dude. Due, Yeah, they're still in the mix. 154 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: Good grief. The Jets had a three game winning streak. 155 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: They went to the Bengals. You know, I have a 156 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: one game losing streak because the Bengals have a one 157 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: game winning streak. I'm happy for Zach Taylor. I like 158 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: to see young coaches get off the Schny get that 159 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: first win, and he made a really tough decision. He 160 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: went back to Andy Dalton and Dalton was very good. 161 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: Twenty two to thirty seven, two hundred forty three yards, 162 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: only sacked once, one touchdown. Joe Mixon had a rushing touchdown. 163 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: Dalton threw that passing touchdown to Tyler Boyd. Good win 164 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: for the Bengals, but the star with Carlos Dunlop seven tackles, 165 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: three sacks, three TFLs, six quarterback hits and knocked down 166 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: a pass.

Tye 179 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: Smith picks it up. Titans go ahead twenty seventeen. They 180 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: then stopped. The Colts get the ball back. Ryan Tannehill 181 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: finds Cliff Raymond that gives him a two touchdown lead. 182 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: The Colts fumble away an opportunity late to cut it 183 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: within a score. Titans win.

Naves He's 188 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: South Colts fall to six and six and third place, 189 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: and hopes are dimmer in Indianapolis as we are into December. 190 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: The other NFC South team, the Jags, took on the Bucks. 191 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: It did not go well for Nick Foles. He was sacked, 192 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: he fumbled, he through interceptions. It was a deplorable day 193 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl MVP Gardner Minshew came on did better, 194 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: not great, but did better, and he actually had the 195 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: Jags within two touchdowns to the ball inside the Bucks five, 196 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: but he threw a pick, actually he was dropped, went 197 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: through the hands of dd Westbrook seaw Murfy Bunting picked 198 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: it off. The Bucks would go down, run the clock 199 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: out after another field goal, and win twenty eight to eleven. 200 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: The Bucks, They're all over the place, five and seven. 201 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: They had the capability of being anybody in league and 202 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: losing anybody in league. They're unbelievable. One of the games 203 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: of the day the Dolphins and Eagles. One of the 204 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: best trick players I've ever seen that was not in 205 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: a Houston Texans game. Matt hacked through to Jason Sanders 206 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: on a trick play that You've got to see it 207 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: to believe it. I can't even put it into words. 208 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: You gotta see it. It was thirteen seven, look like 209 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: Dolphins are gonna make it thirteen ten with the field goal, 210 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: and they faked it with the most beautiful fake you've 211 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: ever seen me, getting the fourteen thirteen lead. And they 212 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 1: would in the second half just go nuts. They dominated 213 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: late in the third quarter, all way through the fourth 214 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: quarter and hang on to win thirty seven thirty one. 215 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: DeVante Parker, wide receiver for the Dolphins went nuts seven 216 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: from one fifty nine to two touchdowns. Just a little 217 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: bit better now, Sean Jeffreies nine for one thirty seven 218 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: in a touch Great day for the Dolphins to win again, 219 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: and I know there's a lot to talk about tanking. 220 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: The Dolphins are playing way better, wonder Brian Flores. They've 221 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: looked really good at times this year, really good. Brian 222 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: Flores is gonna have that team playing really good football 223 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: before too long. Give he and Chris Greer a couple 224 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: of drafts, put some more talent in there, figure out 225 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: the quarterback situation fits. He's gotten wins. We knew he would. 226 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: There was a big one over the Eagles. Packers beat 227 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: the Giants thirty one thirteen. Giants stink. Packers are good. 228 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: Went about his expected. The Steelers took on the Browns 229 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: in a revenge game and the Steelers won twenty to thirteen. 230 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: Duck Hodges, Yeah, he's the world champion duck caller apparently, 231 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: fourteen to twenty one for two twelve a touch in 232 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: a pick better than Baker Mayfield eighteen to thirty two 233 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: one ninety six one touch in one pick. But Baker 234 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: Mayfield sacked five times. Five times, while the Steelers only 235 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: gave up one Bud Debris sack and a half and 236 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: a forced fumble. Jevon Hargrave is sack, case Ayward half 237 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: a sack, t J Watt a sack, Camp Sutton a sack. 238 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: Everybody's got sacks a Baker. Mayfield made that trade for 239 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: Obj just to put in comparison, the Browns trade for 240 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: Rob j didn't help their offensive line. Texas traded four 241 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: Laramie Tunsil Kenny Stills and I would make that deal 242 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: every day and twice on Sunday. Steelers way in twenty 243 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: to thirteen. Can't protect him, can't get production. Brown's vault 244 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: to five and seven. Playoff hopes are dim. The Rams 245 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: beat the well you know what out of Kyler Murray 246 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: rough day for the rookie, he'd been a pretty good 247 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: role sacked six times, picked once nineteen to thirty four 248 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: for one sixty three. Everybody sacked the Maaron Donald had 249 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: a sack and a half, Clay Matthews had a sack. 250 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: Everybody was getting after him. But Jared Goff thirty two 251 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: of forty three for four twenty four and Robert Woods 252 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: was his man thirteen for one seventy two Tyler, he'd 253 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: be the tight end at seven cats for one oh 254 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: seven and a touchdown. When he's healthy, he could be 255 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: a game changer. Rams moved through seven and five and 256 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: stay alive for a wild card and in the nutty 257 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: game of the day, the Chargers play the Broncos. This 258 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: game was all over the place, but only the Chargers 259 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: could find a way to lose a game like this. 260 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton had two touchdowns from rookie Drew Locke, starting 261 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: his first NFL game. Lock not tremendous, but good eighteen 262 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: to twenty eight from one thirty four two touchdowns, did 263 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: throw an interception, but after a Michael Badsley field goal 264 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: tied it at twenty with fourteen seconds left, Lock reared 265 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: back and through deep and got an interference call on 266 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: Casey Hayward on Courtland Sutton. Brandon McManus came out at 267 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: that point in the last play of the game knocked 268 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: it home from fifty three yards out. Broncos win. Coming 269 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: into NRG Stadium feeling pretty good about what the rookie 270 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: Drew Locke was able to do, what the defense could 271 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: was able to do against the Chargers, The Broncos now 272 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: four and eight and same as the Chargers. And you 273 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: remember last year the Chargers that hot team out in 274 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: the West and everybody said, oh, the Chargers are this 275 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: and thought that way coming into the year. Well, doesn't 276 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: turned up the way. Chargers struggle lying at four and 277 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: eight and the Broncos at four and eight. But it 278 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: feels a little different because the Broncos got that win. 279 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: Broncos actually swept the Chargers this year. So there you go. 280 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: There's your run around the NFL. We get back. We'll 281 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: talk through our buddy Andre Ware right here on Texas 282 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: All Access YO today.

That has never happened. We 297 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: have never done an all access show after a Texans 298 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: went over the Patriots. We didn't start it until twenty twelve. 299 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: The last win was over two thousand and nine. So 300 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,479 Speaker 1: this is historic as historic day and me, John Harris, 301 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm very happy to be with you to share it. 302 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: And I got a chance to share it Sunday night 303 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: with my two pals, Mark VanderMeer and Andre Ware and 304 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: Drey joined us to talk all about it. Let's start 305 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball, Tom Brady. What 306 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: are you seeing from him at this stage of his 307 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: career and where do you think it goes from here? 308 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: Nobody's getting any younger, including him and all of us. 309 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 1: I guess yeah, I don't. I don't really think that 310 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: Brady's skill level has slipped in any any stretch. I 311 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: think it's just chemistry with receivers. He's got a bunch 312 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: of young players or guys that have not been in 313 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: the system very long. Let's up Door says that Jakobe Myers, 314 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: you got Nakil Harry that's playing for him. When you're 315 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: when you don't have the chemistry with guys and you're 316 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: playing NFL games against good players and good defenses every week, 317 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: it starts to catch up. And it's a direct reflection 318 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: on the quarterback. There's two areas where you can look 319 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: bad as a quarterback and be a hell of a player. 320 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: If you don't have a good offensive line in front 321 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: of you, that's going to be a reflection on you. 322 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: And if you don't have skill players that aren't in 323 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: spots that you would expect them to be in, that's 324 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: going to be a reflection on you. And I think 325 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: that's where Tom Brady is now. You look at who 326 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: led them in receiving Juliet Edelman and James White, two 327 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: guys that have been in that offense for a while, 328 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 1: and Brady just can't carry it by himself with just 329 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: those two and the two guys that he trusts on 330 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: that roster. He didn't trust those rookies. And you made 331 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: that point last night during the broadcast, Yeah, trust those 332 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: guys yet, And that was part of the reason that 333 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: he came up with the interception and they missed. They 334 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,479 Speaker 1: missed Gronk. But that's okay. They're not getting Gronk back. Dre. 335 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 1: I asked Mark this a little while ago, fifteen minutes 336 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: after the game up in Indianapolis. I walk up there 337 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: and I say, Drake, don't worry about it. When we 338 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: play the Patriots, the Texas defensive backs are gonna throw 339 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: a blanket over the Patriots receivers at times. Don't worry 340 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: about it. This secondary will be ten times better than 341 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: it is in week thirteen than it was in week seven. 342 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: What would you have said to me and what did 343 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 1: you see with those defensive backs last night? I might 344 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: have hit you with them maybe after that game. And then, 345 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: you know, after a couple of weeks when when all 346 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: the injuries started, I would have said, you're crazy because, uh, 347 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: you know, with even with Brady and what he has 348 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: and your factor and injuries and guys that are playing 349 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: some some snaps because or with inexperience in the secondary, 350 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: I would have told you were crazy at that point. 351 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: But then they started to get guys back and started 352 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: to get the secondary healthy. Last night, they found a 353 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: way to magnifacture the pass for us. And you know, 354 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: we talked about it all through the game and even 355 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: in the pregame that sometimes it's best not to sack 356 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: Brady but just to get hits on him. Well they 357 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: I think they got three sacks last night and then 358 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,719 Speaker 1: a twelve quarterback hits. That's when you can really disrupt him. 359 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: You mix all that together with the inexperience that at 360 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: wide receiver and you get what you got last night 361 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: from their offense. Wow. I mean, that was just a 362 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: tremendous defensive performance for so much of the night. Obviously 363 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: the big rally late in the game, but the Texans 364 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 1: have had enough of a cushion to overcome that. All right, 365 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: So here we are. We're looking at Deshaun Watson throwing 366 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: three touchdown passes last night. Ray, They're not running the 367 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: ball the way they want, but they moved the ball 368 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: the way they had to last night against New England. 369 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 1: Can you talk about that Houston attack, Well, it's when 370 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: you lose a right tackle and in Tinus High who's 371 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: an excellent run blocker, and that's usually with that position 372 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 1: is kind of designed to be and everybody's kind of 373 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: right handed in the running game. You try to be balanced, 374 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: but that's the running side of an offensive line. You 375 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: lose that, you're gonna struggle Chris Clark and the lights 376 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: are over there trying to Roger Johnson, trying to to 377 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: move some people off the line of scrimmage. It might 378 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: not be there fourte It is with Titus and so 379 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: I think they missed him last night. You can you 380 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: can move a real good run stopper from that side 381 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 1: to the other side and hold up with a within 382 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: experience over there and not as good a run blocker. 383 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: And that's what the Pagers who are able to do. 384 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: They're they're decent against the run. I mean they're ninth 385 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL coming in only giving up ninety eight 386 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: yards or so uh in at department. So it's going 387 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: to be a tall order anyway. But you remove a 388 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: starter and it's going to be a struggle to running 389 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 1: j F James one of your fantasy team. Last night, 390 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: James White was trending and like two in the morning 391 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: on Twitter, and I was like why, And then I 392 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: realized all the fantasy players are like, thank you, James White. 393 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: Other fantasy players are like, screw you, James White. I 394 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: thought it was hilarious. But the Texans fought fire with 395 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 1: fire with Duke Johnson, and Mark mentioned earlier and I 396 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: agree totally. They kind of felt like it was a 397 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: Duke Johnson kind of game. They weren't able to kind 398 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,719 Speaker 1: of power it through with Carlos Hide, so they went 399 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: to Duke Johnson and kind of gave the Patriots a 400 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: little bit of their own medicine in throwing the football, 401 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 1: especially on the first drive and then finding Duke for 402 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: the touchdown. Dayson's he's been here, he's been an invaluable 403 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: member of this offense, but last night it really felt 404 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: like his impact was felt even more. Yeah, if you 405 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: played Carlos Hide in the game like last night, that's 406 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: exactly you're feeding into what the Patriots and how the 407 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: Patriots want to play defensively. They want to play in 408 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: the box and they just want to slug it out. Well, 409 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: when you spread them out and you got some quickness 410 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: and some speed and receiving ability from the running back spot, 411 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: the Duke Johnson provides you, Now you've got a quicker, faster, 412 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: ball catching running back against Dante high Tower, who's two 413 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: hundred sixty pounds at sixty three, You've got Kyle van 414 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: Noy trying to check him at sixty three two hundred 415 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 1: and fifty pounds. That's a matchup that I've taken all 416 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: day because essentially you got a slot on a running 417 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: on a linebacker. And so they did a nice job 418 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: of game planning that up, using the right personnel at 419 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: the right time against the personnel that the Patriots want 420 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: to keep in the game. They want to play you 421 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: in their bass defense and leave those guys on the field. 422 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: Then when you check in a defensive back, that's when 423 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: you go back to Carlos Hide because they can't now, 424 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: they can't hold up against the Ruts. So it was 425 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: a nice, nice, nice usage of the personnel in the 426 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: backfield of Carlos Hide and Duke Jobs Well, Denver is 427 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: gonna be in here on Sunday. And Drew Locke, who 428 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: looked good at times in his professional debut, made a 429 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 1: big throw late that drew a flag for a pass 430 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: atter Ferret's penal team. And I'm going to read your 431 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: quote here. That was my first time I've ever really 432 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: seen that flag and enforced most of the time in 433 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: college football, that's fifteen yards. I was like, wait, the 434 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: balls up there. We have a chance to win. Now, Yeah, 435 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: that is beautiful stuff. That's that's a penalty. For years, 436 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: Uh that I've been I've been saying in college football, 437 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: that needs to be a spot following. Mean, you think 438 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: about it, every penalty that's called is a spot file 439 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: and it's the yard is either added us attracted from 440 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: where the spot of the fill occurs, and hats interference 441 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: in college is the exception. And I think at some 442 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: point they really got to sit down and take a 443 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: look at that and go from there. So I guess 444 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: he was pretty shocked that, uh that that it worked 445 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 1: out in his favor. They kick a field goal to win, 446 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: and Denver's actually been playing some good football label Yeah Denver, Yeah, 447 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: I don't want I don't want this. Yeah, this is 448 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: a would it could have, should have kind of team 449 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: because they've had a lot of late losses, a lot 450 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: of teams rallying and strange plays late to get them wins. 451 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: And the Colts had that Brissette spent out where he 452 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: was able to hit t Y Hilton downfield, setting up 453 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: a late field goal win for the Colts, and Denver 454 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: could have had that game up in INDI d you 455 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: bet yet with Dre this wait what what was my bet? 456 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: You're bet in that game? You said that the Cults 457 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: were gonna lose. You paid off the bet, Randolph, I 458 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: own the usual amount of one dollar. I'll pay you back. 459 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: But Denver is not to be taken lightly, Dre, No, 460 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: not at all. I mean, it's a young football team 461 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 1: that you know, defensively, they've got some parts, they still 462 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 1: have some parts that can cause some problems. And then yeah, 463 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: they're getting enough in the running game to protect the 464 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: young quarterback and he seems to be coming around. Bet 465 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: it's maybe it's arguably his best outing, uh in yesterday's game. 466 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: So it's it's a team that, hey, they had nothing 467 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: to lose, They're gonna give you everything they have. And 468 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: those are the teams that usually cause us some problems. 469 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: All right, Dre. I just saw this tweet by any 470 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: Staples made me think of you. Heisman voting opens today, 471 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: and he said, don't vote today, don't vote tomorrow, in 472 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 1: until after the games did finish Saturday. It's not that difficult. 473 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: I know that you have a Heisman vote because you 474 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: won that glorious trophy many years ago. Have you sort 475 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: of narrated down you have to say are voting for? 476 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: Have you kind of narrowed down to the guys that 477 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: you think or maybe your top three? You haven't set 478 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: in your mind who you're voting for. How do you 479 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: feel about your Heisman vote coming up? I don't have 480 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: haven't figured all out yet, but you know, you have 481 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: kind of narrowed it down to a few guys. Joe 482 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: Burrow at LSU's playing some outstanding football justin fields and 483 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: at Ohio State, two teams that you could flip them 484 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: on any given dame. Who's who's number one in the country? 485 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: And I still like Jonathan Taylor And there's a couple 486 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: of other ones in there as well that your factor. 487 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna let the games play themselves out over 488 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: the weekend. As you mentioned, I'm usually one that they're 489 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 1: they're sending a messages to, Hey, we haven't gotten your 490 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: vote yet. Yeah, I know it. I got still got 491 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: a couple of hours before I need to hit sin 492 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: so um. I play with them in that manner, but 493 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: I'll get it in on time. Hey, as a fraternity member, 494 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: can you just please petition them to make this and 495 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: after the season thing. It makes total after the Bowl thing, 496 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: because when you do that, you have it extends the 497 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: life of the college football season. I think it would 498 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: be wonderful to do it later. You know, when you 499 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: do it the weekend between the championship games and the 500 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. You do it right there Saturday night, you 501 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: would be he Heisman Trophy and you take center stage. 502 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: I thought you at the College Championship game, like, well, yeah, 503 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 1: I got you. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I agree with you 504 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: guys wholeheartedly. It seems to make sense that the landscape 505 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: for college football has changed everywhere else. I mean, now 506 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: we have a playoff instead of computers deciding who's going 507 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: to be the national champions So the landscape has changed everywhere. 508 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: The one thing that hasn't changed is the trust in 509 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: their belief and uh and they are some hardcore old 510 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: school whatever it is you want to call them, where 511 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: they will not you know, change one old they that's 512 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: their weekend and hopefully somebody can get in their ears. 513 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: And it just makes total sense. Between the semifinals and 514 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: when the National Championship has played. You're right, that's the 515 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: perfect window to do it in. You get all the 516 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: games played at that point, with the exception of the 517 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: National Championship game and you just do it then. But 518 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: maybe they feel like I think they feel like, hey, 519 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: this is enough of a body of work that's been 520 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: out there, let's get it done. But maybe I'll mention it. 521 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: I'll definitely mention it. That was a blast last night. 522 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: There's no question with those two. We kept kind of 523 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 1: getting out of each other's case because we would make 524 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: comments about various things during the break and somebody would say, 525 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: Bree doesn't look the same. And during the game, I 526 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: made some comment about putting the nail on the coffin, 527 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: and I didn't mean to say nail in the coffin, 528 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: but kind of in the first half coffin not to 529 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: allow the Patriots to rise up in the first That's 530 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: kind of what I meant, but it didn't come out 531 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: that way, so they were chry to me for that. 532 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: I have a blast with Mark and Andre each and 533 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: every Sunday, Sunday night, Thursday night, Monday night, doesn't matter, 534 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon, So blast those guys calling the games. Also 535 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: have a blast talking with the General John McClain, and 536 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: he will join us next right here in Texans All Access. 537 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: We've got one final segment of this Texas All Access 538 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: on the Monday following a win over the New England Patriots. 539 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Harris. It's time for our friend 540 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,719 Speaker 1: John McLean to join us and does that now? So 541 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: give me your thoughts after seeing what you saw last 542 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: night at NRG Stadium. I think we might must have 543 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: known it was going to be a night to remember 544 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: when the Texans actually scored a touchdown in the first quarter, 545 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: only a third time in this season. Coming into the game, 546 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: only Washington scored fewer touchdowns and the Texans fewer points 547 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: than the Texans in the first quarter. In Bradley Roby's 548 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: interception put them in position to do it, and then 549 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: when he had to penalty on the return, I thought, oh, 550 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: maybe they'll get a field goal when they scored and 551 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: then have them down like they did. I kept expecting 552 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: another Patriot come back like the one in the Super 553 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: Bowl in which they had Atlanta. Atlanta had them down 554 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: and lost. And it's a good thing they didn't get 555 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: that onside kick at the end, because my goodness, Brady 556 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: was hot at that point. But you know, I thought, 557 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: I think it's the greatest regular season victory they've ever had, 558 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: even though it didn't clinch anything. To me, the greatest 559 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: regular season victory was winning in Cincinnati and getting that 560 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: first AFC South Tile, but this one because it was 561 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: the Patriots, the great Patriots defense, and had only given 562 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: up nine touchdowns and eleven games only four touchdown passes 563 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,719 Speaker 1: coming into the game, and scoring twenty eight, only the 564 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: second team to score more than fourteen on them, I 565 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: thought it was the greatest performance. These last two helped 566 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: them regain a lot of the respect they lost by 567 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: getting obliterated in Baltimore. The Ravens didn't deserve them to 568 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: do that favor for him, but they sure got it 569 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: because now Baltimore has inside track on ASC championship. Yame, hey, John, 570 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: You mentioned the Bradley Roby interception, and Mark and I 571 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: talked about how the game began, and I'm sure you 572 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: did interviews. We asked you about it, and we all said, Okay, 573 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 1: you've got to start a certain way against these guys. 574 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: You can't go three and out, you can't give up 575 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: points to them early, you can't make dumb mistakes, you 576 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: can't get fifteen year penalties and all that kind of stuff. 577 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: And you did all of that, yet after Roby's interception 578 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: and Duke Johnson's touchdown, you're up seventy three. But it 579 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: felt like Roby's interception, I felt sort of a change 580 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: in the vibe in the building on the sideline. What 581 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: did you see from that point? Did you think that 582 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,239 Speaker 1: was kind of the fulcrum point, the focal point of 583 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: when this thing sort of changed that maybe the Texas believed, hey, 584 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: we can get this done. Yeah, as we add in 585 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 1: a uncle to day our Texas sports nation, that was 586 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: the turning point of the game and energized the building, 587 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: kind of silenced a lot of those Patriot fans that 588 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: showed up, and I'm sure that gave them a lot 589 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: of confidence. You know this, it's weird, you know, every 590 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: year they play in Foxboro. Now they're going to play 591 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: again next year because they'll be playing first play schedules. 592 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: I'm assuming the Texans will win the division, although I 593 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: think it's going to come down to that last game 594 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 1: against the Titans, so they would play the Patriots again, 595 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: and and the kind of thing. You can't get off 596 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: to a bad start in Gilette Stadium, as the Texans 597 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: have shown too many times, but this one after that, 598 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: I kept thinking, you know, okay, Lamar Jackson had a 599 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: bad first quarter and then look what happened. Brady had 600 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: a bad first quarter, but he didn't recover from it 601 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: until the last two series of the game. But the 602 00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: thing that the offense has loaded with talent, you know, 603 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: the offense is basically healthy except for Titus Howard. The 604 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: defense to lose Brennan Scarlett, Angelo Blacks and Carlos Watkins, 605 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: it's three contributors from the front seven and garn and 606 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: Dylan of course, and with Gary Conley out, but the 607 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: dbs were healthier than any time this season. And to 608 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: get pressure on Brady to knock him down twelve times 609 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: four by DJ Reader. Three by Jacob Martin. Jacob Martin 610 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: is a half sack behind Jadeveon Clowney right now, two 611 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: and a half to three. Of course, Clowning play tonight, 612 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: But these last two games, Martin's doing what he did 613 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: in Seattle as a rookie last year. He had three 614 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,239 Speaker 1: sacks in their last five games, and they thought he 615 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: had what it took to be a good pass rusher 616 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: because of that speed off the edge. The Texans saw 617 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: it in the make sure he was included in that 618 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: trade and right now Martin is putting a lot of 619 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: heat on the quarterback and I'd be remissed, but didn't say. 620 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: DJ Reader played the best game he's ever played. Seven tackles, 621 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 1: which is unheard of for a nose tackles, being blocked 622 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: by two guys on every play, and four quarterback knockdowns. 623 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: I'd love to see the last time a nose tackle 624 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: knocked down a quarterback four times? You think that puts 625 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,359 Speaker 1: him in the Pro Bowl? John National Television last night? 626 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: Couldn't Sidry was on National TV? If it doesn't so, 627 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: like I wrote today on Texas Sports Nation, if he's 628 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: not in the Pro Bowl, there should be an investigation. 629 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: I loved that. I mean it should. I mean he was, 630 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 1: he was tremendoed. At one time, he had Tom Brady 631 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: by the foot, and last year, I mean he's tom 632 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: Brady's kryptonite. He had two sacks against him last year. 633 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 1: How about that? DJ Reader has been phenomenal. I think 634 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 1: he's going to Pro Bowl. There's no question John. Offensively, 635 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: to me, the focal point of the game. Offensively, well, 636 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: they're probably a few, but when Watson throws the deep 637 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: battle fuller and he gets overturned, but they go right 638 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: back to attacking John Jones and the next play with 639 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 1: Kenny Stills and they get the touchdown. Not to me 640 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: kind of signaled that, okay, it's a little different. We 641 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: landed a punch, but oh yeah it was. It was 642 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 1: illegal punch, seemingly proverbial speaking. But then they went right 643 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: back to it and landed a bigger one with Kenny 644 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: Stills and the touchdown. What do you think of the 645 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 1: way that the offense is able to move the ball 646 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: at times, especially through the air, not really through the ground, 647 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: but through the air against that boogeyman defense. That was 648 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,800 Speaker 1: a great route by Steals and a perfect pass by Watson. 649 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: And you know, it's amazing. Great to Sean Watson's been 650 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 1: in prime time, I wrote to David. If they're not 651 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 1: in the maximum number of nationally televised games, land next 652 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: year's unlike this year, then people are missing out. Because 653 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: he has twenty one touchdown passes, three interceptions, three touchdowns 654 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 1: rushing and one touchdown receiving. They doesn't get much better 655 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: than that, And so I thought he played a great game. 656 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: He was sacked three times, but overall I thought the 657 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: pass protection was good. Run blocking got stuff. You know, 658 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: they couldn't run, but I feel like they could have 659 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: thrown the Duke Johnson on just about every play because 660 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots did not have a linebacker who could cover him. 661 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: And that's why they gave up a third round pick, 662 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: which is going to be a compensatory pick that they'll 663 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 1: get for Matthew or Kaarem Jackson and that'll go to Cleveland, 664 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: not their regular third rounder. And that's exactly why they 665 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: got Duke Johnson is to make plays like that out 666 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: of the backfield, and he was open almost every time. 667 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: They just didn't have anybody who could cover him. And 668 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: I felt like if Watson had wanted to throw him 669 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: the ball twenty times, he would have caught fifteen. John 670 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: McClean joining us on Texans Monday. John, Now you have 671 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: four games to go, and it all starts with the 672 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos. But let's move to the division picture here 673 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 1: as the say you're looking at head now, I'm not 674 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 1: talking to the coach. I'm talking to the general. Yeah, 675 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: we can't. We're talking to you, John, We can do. 676 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: It's a different deal because we're just going over landscape 677 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: of the ASC South and the Titans are making a move, John, 678 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: How good are they? They won five h six since 679 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill replaced Marcus Mariot and also Mike Vrabel. And 680 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 1: we always wonder when you consider Derreck Henry's games against 681 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: the Texans, why are they getting the balmore? Well, they've 682 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: started giving Henry the balmore. He wears down defenses. He's 683 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: been playing great and so they run. They have a 684 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 1: great mixture between the run and the past. Pannehill doesn't 685 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 1: have to throw a lot, and his ratings have been good. 686 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: He hadn't been turned it over and now you know 687 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: he's playing for a new contract. Now he's still got 688 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 1: four games before they have to decide. And if you're 689 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: a Texans fan, do you want them to commit big 690 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: bucks to Ryan Tannehill instead of going after one of 691 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: these young quarterbacks because there's going to be a lot 692 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: or another venture where right now Tannehill at thirty, I 693 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 1: believe he is. He is playing better at any time 694 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: in his career. And he's also not turning it over. 695 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 1: And they've got a good defense. Harold Landry as a 696 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: second five consecutive games, and I think it is good 697 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: that Denver pull that game out with that miraculous ending 698 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: that's going to get lost in all the great games. 699 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: That means something, but that kind of gets the Texans attention. 700 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: And vic Pa Joe's a really good defensive coach, and 701 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: so I expect the Broncos to play really good defense. 702 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: And then it's course Tennessee and they can't be looking 703 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 1: ahead to the Titans, and I trip up there. Tampa's 704 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 1: gotten better one two in a row. So what we 705 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: thought a month ago might be a cake walk if 706 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,919 Speaker 1: they could get through Baltimore, Indianapolis in New England has 707 00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: now turned in to kind of hellish. That last crunch 708 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,720 Speaker 1: time at the NFL there's gonna be a lot tougher 709 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 1: than we thought a month ago. Yeah, there's no doubt 710 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 1: about that. And I think it's probably tougher for some 711 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: teams that thought it would may have been easier. I mean, 712 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: the Bills are playing seeing me well, and so the 713 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: Patriots got to deal with them up at Gillette, and 714 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: they obviously have the Chiefs this weekend. John one team 715 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: that I am enamored with right now, just because it 716 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: looks like a hot mess. And last week Tom Coughlin 717 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: went to the microphone and something he doesn't do during 718 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: the year, and it was bizarre. It was weird. The 719 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: what is going on in Jacksonville. It's a mess. They've 720 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: got Nick Foles on the hook for twenty twenty I 721 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: think fifteen million dollars. They went to Gardner Minshew yesterday 722 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: because Foles was not good. This is a mess in Jacksonville. 723 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: How do you think it plays out? Do you think 724 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 1: Marone stays? Do you think Coughlin stays? How do you 725 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: think it plays out in Jacksonville? Falls is zo four 726 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,479 Speaker 1: as a starter? The mess tags four four and one point. 727 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: He had him within the touchdown on the yesterday and 728 00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: they thought that night pull it out. And then they 729 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: had a turnover both turnball over in his first three series, 730 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: two bumbles in an interception, and people are like, my goodness, 731 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,919 Speaker 1: why could he only play well in Philadelphia. He's got 732 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: his Philadelphia quarterbacks coach of the offensive coordinator there, but 733 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: he just has not been good and their offense is 734 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 1: not good. And when reporters went into the dressing room, 735 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: Unique and Guy Way and Brandon Linda as a center 736 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: were in a heated exchange and had to be separated. 737 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: So Moron's gone. It's just a question is Copland gone? 738 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 1: I think there could be a total house cleaning in Jacksonville, 739 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: as I believe there will be a total house cleaning 740 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:48,919 Speaker 1: in Caroline. A coach n GM. Wow wow, we'll see 741 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: how that goes. Dallas Cowboys John Thursday Night, what do 742 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: you think? A bigger mess? Yeah, that's another mess. I 743 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: just wanted your quick thoughts on them. They got a 744 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 1: lot of controversy going on. There should have been Buffalo 745 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: and they didn't. Right now, everybody's down on them. Everybody 746 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: believes Garrett's fired. It's just a matter who does who 747 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 1: does Jason Garrett get replaced by it? And Baylor playing 748 00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: the Oklahoma Sooner is coming up Saturday eleven am kick. 749 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,359 Speaker 1: I know East Coast noon, but please eleven am kick 750 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: for a conference championship game. But okay, it is what 751 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: it is. What do you think Oklahoma beat him by 752 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: three with that great comeback in Waco. I think Oklahoma 753 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: will win this and if you talk, gets beat by 754 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: Oregon and I think Oklahoma's going to get that fourth spot. 755 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: I would love to see Baylor beat him and have 756 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: a shot at it, but ou is ou and I 757 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: think that the Sooners will win. Wow. I mean, Baylor 758 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: had a huge lead on them. I mean, they can 759 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,319 Speaker 1: do it. They blew it. I know they blew it, 760 00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 1: but let's go. Come on Bears time. But y'all will 761 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: have I wish they would. I know, I know somebody 762 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: really wants them to win. That's David Fletcher. Because Baylor 763 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 1: opened season at NRG Stadium with a kickoff classic and 764 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 1: Old Miss. We'll have a new head coach, so that 765 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: might energize the Old Miss fan base. And I know 766 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 1: David will be very excited if Baylor were to do that. 767 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: So we'll know who's in the Academy Sports and Outdoors 768 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: Texas Bowl on Sunday afternoon. Yep, we're getting all sorts 769 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 1: of rumors already, but nothing's final. Yeah, nothing is final. 770 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: But but John, what does it mean the Baylor community 771 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: to see Matt rule turns thing around as quickly as 772 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:41,240 Speaker 1: he has. No, it's unbelievable as they have now, fans 773 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,320 Speaker 1: are just hoping he doesn't want to go to the NFL. 774 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 1: And the one I've told you guys I'm worried about 775 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 1: is if Jacksonville keeps Coughlin, that Coughlin will come after 776 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: him to go there and turn it around since world 777 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,919 Speaker 1: coach with Coughlin and New York, but he has done 778 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 1: a fantastic job and I think with PJ play in 779 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: Minnesota losing, Matt Rule is going to be voted coach 780 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: of the Year. No matter what happens against Oklahoma, what 781 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: Matt Rule has done unbelievable. He definitely deserves to be 782 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: coach of the Year. Appreciate John McClain, Andre ware, Mark Vandermere, 783 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 1: all my guys at Sports Radio six ten, being Gary 784 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: back in the studio.
