Speaker 1: in studios, head coach Tamiko Ryan's coach. Great to see you,

Speaker 2: Great to see you guys. Happy New Year to you

6
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 2: as well.

7
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: All right, so it is New Year's Week, but we'll

8
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: get into that later. Obviously, coming back from we call

9
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: it a mini buy. I don't know how you look

10
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,159
Speaker 1: at it. How'd you feel getting back out of the

11
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: practice field on Monday after a little bit of time

12
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: off since the last game.

13
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: It's always good to get some time off, especially you

14
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 3: know after a rough out. It's rough and out and

15
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 3: as we have versus Baltimore, it's hard to kind of

16
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 3: sit and enjoy Christmas because he's just stirring. Right what

17
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 3: just happened on the field, sat women, it's hard to

18
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 3: deal with. But you know, after a couple of days,

19
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 3: you really have to just flush it right, learn from it,

20
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 3: and you know, took down some really good notes on

21
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: what we're doing, how we can improve and get better,

22
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 3: and then just took the weekend and really enjoy time

23
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 3: with the family. And that's what that was about. And

24
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: coming back today, hitting the field was even better of

25
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 3: just getting back out flushing it right, getting our guys

26
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 3: back to doing football, and we just got to continue

27
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 3: to play football better. And so that today was the

28
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 3: start of that, and if we continue that focus as

29
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 3: we go throughout the week, will end up in a

30
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 3: really good spot versus Tennessee.

31
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 4: Could you said something in your press conference that stayed

32
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 4: with me. You're like, get the ball right, like get

33
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 4: right playing ball? And I like that saying because it is.

34
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 5: Getting back to the blocking, the tackling, the fundamentals.

35
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 4: I know, even at the NFL level, you still in

36
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 4: some sense those things that got to be a focus.

37
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: Do they not? For sure?

38
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: It goes back and I know it's like a broken record,

39
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: but it goes back to the fundamentals of the game,

40
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 3: like can we sustain a block and finish a block?

41
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 3: And now we got to crease right? Can we be

42
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 3: at the proper depth on our route? Can we execute

43
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: it the right way? Can we be more firm and protection?

44
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: Can we have our eyes right defensively? Like can we

45
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 3: fit the run the proper way? Understanding the block, recognition

46
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 3: that we're getting, so all of those things.

47
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: It's just it's football, right.

48
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 3: If I step back and as I reviewed the game

49
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 3: and I kept going through it, it's just for me,

50
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 3: it's like, are we doing football the right way? And

51
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 3: that just goes back to are my eyes right? Do

52
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: I know? Knowing what to do, knowing how to do it,

53
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 3: and then getting it done. So that's a lot of

54
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 3: like what I talk about execution after the game, Like

55
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 3: that's what it comes down to, Right, We had our

56
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 3: opportunities to make plays, like, but are we going through

57
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 3: the progression the proper way? Are my eyes the right way?

58
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: Like?

59
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 3: Am I sticky in coverage? Am I finishing my rushes tackling?

60
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 3: Am I security and attack or wrapping up? Or am

61
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 3: I just throwing the arm out there? Or am I

62
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 3: running my feet once I secure?

63
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: So it's all.

64
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 3: Those little things that kind of goes unnoticeding games and

65
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: you kind of talk about the big plays in this moment,

66
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 3: momentum all those things, but once the ball is snapped,

67
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 3: want our guys to be hyper focused on what they

68
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 3: have to do and then get it done.

69
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: Is that one of the big keys in building confidence

70
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: because I know you want to go into the postseason

71
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: with some confidence and whatever happens in the game against Tennessee.

72
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: Happens in the game, But you have all these practices

73
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: until you play a playoff game, right.

74
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure that goes into that confidence. Like confidence

75
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 3: is earned and I truly believe in it. Like to

76
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: gain confidence, you got to go do it right over

77
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 3: and over repeatedly, Like when you repeatedly do things the

78
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 3: right way, that's how you get confidence in what you're doing.

79
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 2: So for us, that's practice reps. That's walked through reps.

80
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: Everything you do, is it the right way every single

81
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 3: If it's not, so, I'm telling our hey, start it over,

82
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: redo it, like you got to bank good reps, And

83
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: that's how you get confidence. And that's how you can

84
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: step out there on Sunday knowing like whatever is thrown

85
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 3: at me, whatever I've seen, like I've already done it.

86
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 3: I have that my body knows it like it's almost

87
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 3: second nature. Or I'm just pretty much coasting because I've

88
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 3: done it right so many times.

89
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 4: Coach, how much at this particular point of the year,

90
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 4: after a game like that, do you want Slash need

91
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 4: your leaders on the team to step up and say, Coach,

92
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 4: we're good, we got this. We're gonna make sure that

93
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 4: doesn't happen. How important is it for those leaders right now?

94
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 4: And everybody's tired mentally, physically tired to step up and

95
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 4: be leaders of the team right now, more than anything else.

96
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 3: Leadership is the most important thing player Like, the best

97
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: teams are the player led teams, right. It's only you know,

98
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: as a coach, you can say it over and over

99
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 3: again or say so many things, but when it comes

100
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 3: from amongst the team, when it comes from the leaders,

101
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: and guys of course listen to that better. They take

102
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 3: it or receive it better because they're in this thing,

103
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 3: it's all. And I always tell guys, right, I'm here

104
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 3: to serve and help you like it's your team, right,

105
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: and we're only gonna go as far as our team

106
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: can take us. And that starts with our leaders and

107
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: their message to the guys and making sure their groups

108
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 3: are excelling and playing at a high level. And it's

109
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 3: also you know, it's it's more when you man, I

110
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 3: can't let my teammate down, right, that's when it means more.

111
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 3: Every team that I've been on and when I've kind

112
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 3: of played my best and more urgent, it's like, oh,

113
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 3: I can't let the guy next to me down right,

114
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: that's when it means more. Not so much of the coach,

115
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: but it's my brother in their locker room and our

116
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 3: leadership is I think because he's getting him back really

117
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 3: helps with that leadership piece because he's one of one

118
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 3: of our leaders and we've been missing him the past

119
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 3: three weeks. So I'm excited to see him back and

120
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 3: just to see his messaging to our guys and to

121
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 3: see them receiving and take off with it.

122
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: Usually it's week to week and don't look past the opponent.

123
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: But the situation is you won the division, you're in

124
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: the postseason, So how do you address the team that

125
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 1: way that this is two weeks until we play a

126
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: playoff game, but there's an important game Sunday because we

127
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: want to play well in that game. No matter how

128
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: you handle it, how do you handle that with the team.

129
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a weird situation, right, but it's for me.

130
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 3: I go back to what can we focus on right,

131
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 3: focus on what we can't control, Focus on the present,

132
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: and right now, the present is, you know, we have

133
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 3: to play better football. We got to go out and

134
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 3: we got an opponent versus Tennessee who beat us earlier

135
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 3: in the year that we need to go out and

136
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: play good against our division opponent.

137
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: We need to go and win this game. Like, that's

138
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 2: my focus.

139
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: That's what's important right now, like and the playoffs will

140
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: handle that when it comes. But as of right now,

141
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 3: how do we handle this? Like it's all focused on Tennessee?

142
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 4: Right.

143
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 3: We know we have ahead of us ahead of us

144
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 3: with the playoff, but to me, it is are we

145
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: playing our best football going into the playoffs?

146
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 2: Right?

147
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 3: You want to be kind of gain that confidence as

148
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 3: you go into no matter who we play, who we face,

149
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 3: we don't know that yet, so it really doesn't matter

150
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 3: that we can't control that. What we can't control is

151
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 3: how we play versus Tennessee.

152
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: And you're probably not able to have the kind of

153
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: practices you'd really want right now, which is full pads

154
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: for three days in a row or something like that.

155
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 5: Coach, I'm discussed it.

156
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: Correct me if I've wrong, But how do you handle practice?

157
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: You said the fundamentals things like that, You can still

158
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: focus on those things without the pads and the hitting, right, yeah,

159
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: you can.

160
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 2: You can't focus on those things.

161
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 3: And it's been a while for us since we put

162
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 3: the pads on because We had the short weeks, right

163
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 3: with the three games in eleven days, So there's only

164
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 3: so much you can do with putting the pads on

165
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:19,119
Speaker 3: and how much you know, how much is on guy's body.

166
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 3: It's a lot to play that amount of games and

167
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 3: such short amount of time.

168
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 2: So you know, now, I think.

169
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 3: Guys have had a little break, they're refreshed, So now

170
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 3: it may be a time to go ahead and put

171
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 3: the pass on to get back to the basics of blocking, tackling,

172
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 3: just filling it one more time before we go into

173
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: our last game of the season.

174
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 4: Coach, Like Tennessee, there are sixteen games they've already put

175
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 4: on film, but you did playing within the last five

176
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 4: to seven weeks. Seemingly it feels like a long time ago,

177
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 4: but it really wasn't. So a how much does that

178
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 4: game give you an opportunity to look back and go, Okay,

179
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 4: this is what happened. They're gonna probably do a lot

180
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 4: of things that are similar. Be As you are going

181
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 4: through that game and you're trying to take notes and

182
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 4: do things, are you getting more frustrated, going, God, dang it,

183
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 4: how did this happen to us on that particular day.

184
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 2: I'm happy I stopped that game before I came down.

185
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 3: But now I started to get a little frustrated with

186
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 3: that game because it's some of the same, you know,

187
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 3: things that kind of show up that are all things

188
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: that we can control. And so going back to I

189
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 3: know they're starting a different quarterback now, Mason Rudolph, which

190
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: was you know, we went against Levis who knows. You

191
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 3: may see both guys, but for us, like man, it

192
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 3: doesn't matter what tennessee does. I think schematically, you know,

193
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 3: offensively defense, they'll attack us the same.

194
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 2: But it's about like, how are we showing up?

195
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: And that's all I want to see, Like it's kind

196
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 3: of throw out the preparation and all those things. We're

197
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 3: not doing anything new. I want to see what we've done.

198
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 3: Can we do it better?

199
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: Well, we're just talking about it as we are in

200
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: the studio here. The Dolphins game was two weeks ago,

201
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: two weeks in a day ago, and it feels like

202
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 1: a month ago, right, and yet a lot of activity

203
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,599
Speaker 1: between then and now. How good does it feel to

204
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: be on a qui normal week so to speak. You

205
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: didn't even play yesterday, so you had that extra Monday practice.

206
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: So much time. I don't know what to do with myself.

207
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: You know, it's refreshing.

208
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 3: I would say that it is refreshing to actually not

209
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 3: feel rushed through preparation. So I think I think it'll

210
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 3: help everyone, like to actually get better at the things

211
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: we need to get better on. We need to practice more,

212
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 3: we need to spend more time meeting and those things.

213
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 3: So get in a normal week this week is very

214
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 3: beneficial to the progress of our team.

215
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 4: Coaches Division game news flash. I knew you knew that

216
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 4: you played against them a number of times. Now you've

217
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 4: coached against them a number of times. Does it do

218
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 4: you have what's the right way of saying this. I

219
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 4: don't want to ask you if you hate the Titans,

220
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 4: but did that feeling of kind of rivalry, like, yeah,

221
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 4: this is a team that you really get up for.

222
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 5: I know you guys when you were playing against them,

223
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 5: there was some bad blood between you both teams.

224
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: At a point, do you kind of have that with Tennessee,

225
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 4: Like when you see them on the field, does that

226
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 4: give you.

227
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 5: Like a little bit more of a little little joke

228
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 5: because it is the Titans?

229
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 2: It does.

230
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 3: I've had my battles with the Titans. They've gotten us,

231
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 3: We've gotten them. So it's always been I think, kind

232
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 3: of bad blood with just you know, just the whole

233
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: organization leaving Houston. So's you feel that. I felt that

234
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 3: as a player. I feel that now as a coach

235
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: as well. So there is bad blood. Everyone knows that,

236
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 3: and our guys feel that and let that fuel them

237
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 3: to go out and play.

238
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 2: Well.

239
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: Take nothing away from what they did here at NRG Stadium,

240
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: But when you look at that tape, do you see

241
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 1: a lot of mistakes made and correctable things. You like

242
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 1: to point out things that the Texans can control, and

243
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: if you clean that up, things should go better.

244
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.

245
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: We have to clean up our house first and foremost,

246
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: and we clean those things up.

247
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: That's what happened in that game.

248
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 3: Like we're up in that game, we're in a really

249
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 3: good spot and we allow just a simple crossing route

250
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 3: to go the distance for a touch that which shouldn't happened.

251
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 3: So it's if we make a play there, the game

252
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 3: is completely different. And there are several other plays in

253
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,079
Speaker 3: the game we can make. That one just sticks out

254
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 3: to me. The most of things that we can control

255
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 3: just playing with better eye discipline right and being in

256
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 3: the right spot. Erasing the play when it does happen,

257
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 3: taking better angles.

258
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 2: To the football. So those things.

259
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 3: It kind of it still eats at me a little

260
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 3: bit when I go back and watch that game, but

261
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 3: I also eat set me. But I'm encouraged because it's like,

262
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 3: I know we can do better, and it's broad. If

263
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 3: it's something else that happens and they get us on

264
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 3: a play, great, But if it's something that I know

265
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 3: we've worked things that we've done before, Like let's go

266
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 3: out and let's do ball better, right, and then let's

267
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 3: see what happens that actually gives us a chance to

268
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 3: actually compete. Like and that's what kind of eats at

269
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 3: me a lot too. It's like, man, are we really competing.

270
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 3: It's like, no, We're going back to the basics, fundamental eyes.

271
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: Where am I looking? Where should I be?

272
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 3: Like, let's nip that in the bud and let's line

273
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 3: up and I know where I am. I'm sticky on

274
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 3: the route. Now let's make a competitive play and get

275
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 3: the ball out.

276
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 4: Coach, We've talked about this a little bit, but Kamari

277
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 4: makes that big, big play the other day for the safety.

278
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 4: And we talked about rookies and you know, hitting a

279
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 4: rookie wall and doesn't feel like he's hitting a rookie wall.

280
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 5: Now he might be feeling it, but it doesn't look like.

281
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 4: You with the way that he's coming up and arriving

282
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 4: at the football and making plays. Are your young guys

283
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 4: at this point of the year. Are they staying pretty strong?

284
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 4: Even though this is week seventeen, on top of three

285
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 4: preseason games in at Tripto, Ohio and starting practice on

286
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 4: July seventeenth, You've seen your rookies kind of hanging with

287
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 4: it and staying pretty strong at this point of the year.

288
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

289
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: I commend our rookies. I think they've handled it really well.

290
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 3: They're handling strong. Kamarai has been doing a great job.

291
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 3: Kamari probably tackled the best in our game yesterday, I

292
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 3: mean yesterday versus Wednesday, versus Darick Henry. He did a

293
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 3: really nice job of, you know, creating a spark for

294
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 3: our team, getting a safety, huge play for us. He's

295
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 3: continued to get better and he's handled the season well. Kaylin,

296
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: Blake and Caate, all those guys, they're handling well.

297
00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: Even though I know he's weighing on them.

298
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 3: It's hardest, the longest you play the longest season you've had,

299
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: the most football you've played, and but those guys aren't.

300
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 3: They aren't making excuses, they aren't complaining. They're going out

301
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 3: there working and they're continuing to trying to improve.

302
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: Coach, what can you tell the listeners and viewers about

303
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: the ground game and what it's going to take to

304
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: improve there, because I know you want to see yourself

305
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: run the football better. We talk about this from time

306
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: to time. You've seen some good things, you've seen some

307
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: things you want to clean up. What can you do

308
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: to make it better at this time of year?

309
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 3: And the main thing with the run game, I think

310
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 3: it's a just sustaining blocks. Like we're targeting. We're in

311
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 3: a proper place, but it's sustaining blocks for longer. I

312
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 3: think we start to down really good and we're on

313
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 3: guys and then at that moment of truth, guys are

314
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 3: what you gotta call it exit off blocks or shedding blocks,

315
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 3: getting off of blocks and make plays and they're getting

316
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 3: off of us making those plays and we aren't sustaining.

317
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 3: So I think if we can sustain blocks a little

318
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 3: bit longer, press forward more, just going more downhill, right,

319
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 3: allowing Joe to get started. I think that's will open

320
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 3: it up in the run game, just finding those creases

321
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 3: like we had earlier in the year, which when we

322
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 3: give Joe the right crease the thing, he can hit it.

323
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 3: But it gets muddy at times when we're you know,

324
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: starting outside, we cut the ball back and it's a

325
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 3: little muddy where we're not sustaining blocks as we should.

326
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 2: So the more we can do that, I think that'll

327
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: be the main thing.

328
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 4: Coach acquiring Deontay Johnson off waivers and bringing him here,

329
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 4: what are your thoughts about how fast you get up

330
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 4: to speed, what you might be able to see from him.

331
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 4: What are you kind of thoughts about bringing Deontay here

332
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 4: at this point of the season.

333
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's late in the season, our last game,

334
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: we add a new guy to our roster. But we're

335
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 3: I told you, guys, throw the kitchen sink at and

336
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 3: let's see what he can absorb, see what he can handle,

337
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 3: and go out here versus Tennessee and let's see what

338
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 3: he can do. We know he's a talented player. He's

339
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 3: he's proven that at multiple stops. It's just a matter

340
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 3: of him that's coming in and man, how much can

341
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: he pick up and how can he come out and

342
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 3: help us?

343
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: And we'll see that this game.

344
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 3: Try to get him some opportunities there, and some mentioned

345
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,160
Speaker 3: Deontay man fresh start with me, every guy that I

346
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 3: get is fresh start. I really don't care what happened

347
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 3: in the past, Like it's about the present and how

348
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 3: do you attack it and how can you come and

349
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 3: help our football team.

350
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: Well, it's a great opportunity for the entire group, right

351
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: because you're still looking for that production.

352
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 5: It's not that long ago.

353
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: You lost Tank and Stefan was a while ago, but

354
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: there's still catches to be made for the whole group,

355
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: right for sure.

356
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 2: I mean we need the depth in our receiver room.

357
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: Those guys.

358
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 3: Those guys probably run the most out of anybody during

359
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 3: the game, right they gain they run a lot of yardists,

360
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 3: a lot of high speed yardists. So we need the depth,

361
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 3: we need the rotation and add a guy like Deontay

362
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 3: I think, who's shown playmaking ability, big, big time playmaking ability,

363
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 3: like to have another threat. I think it's huge for

364
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: us with us losing Tank, losing Digs, we know we've

365
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 3: lost two.

366
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 2: Of our top guys.

367
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 3: And to make any hay right, as you're going to

368
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 3: the playoffs, you need guys who are a thread on

369
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: the outside. And we know Nico and what he's been

370
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: capable of doing throughout.

371
00:15:58,560 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 2: This entire year.

372
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 3: He's out of a year like, can we just find

373
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 3: more guys to help him? And that's what we're looking for.

374
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 2: Coach.

375
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 4: I want to ask you about a guy that unfortunately

376
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 4: will not be playing this weekend and won't be playing

377
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 4: the rest of the year, but I want to ask

378
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 4: you about him for a particular reason.

379
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 5: That's Jalen Petrie. We've talked about.

380
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 4: Jalen on the field and what Jalen does on the

381
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 4: field and how dynamic he is and the plays we

382
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 4: talked about. How you know, we've missed him on the field,

383
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 4: but off the field, he's an incredible human being. He's

384
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 4: obviously a local guy from Stafford. He's the Texans nominee

385
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 4: for Walter Payton Man of the Year. I just wanted

386
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 4: to ask you about that in kind of earning that honor,

387
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 4: if you will.

388
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 5: And we talked to him.

389
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 4: Before practice and we've always loved Jalen for a number

390
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 4: of reasons, but how how great was it to see

391
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 4: Jalen be the Texans nominee for Walter Payton Man of

392
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: the Year.

393
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,080

415
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: Right, speaking of Walter Payton running back, classic outstanding, all

416
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: time great running back, and Johnny and I going to

417
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: be at the Kinder's Texas Bowl Chairman's reception and Eric

418
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: Dickerson's a Texas Gridiron legend going in, so he's another classic.

419
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: Who was your favorite running back growing up? Did you

420
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: have a guy that you really admired? Because Walter Payton

421
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: and Eric Dickerson a little before your time, a little

422
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 1: kid maybe at the end of their career, but discuss

423
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: that for us.

424
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 3: Wow, man, so many great running backs when I was

425
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 3: of course, I think just looking back at the old.

426
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: Fam me and it was Bo Jackson.

427
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 3: Just seeing what he was able to do, and I mean,

428
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 3: I was such a force he ran with just you know,

429
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 3: kind of sad in his career was shorten due to injury,

430
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 3: but he was the best guy in the field.

431
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 5: And even though he's an Auburn guy.

432
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 3: Even though he's an Auburn guy, I'll give him a pass.

433
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 3: What Bo Jackson was the guy for me?

434
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 5: Bo Jackson was Who's the best running back you've ever faced?

435
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 4: I don't know if you know this, but there have

436
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 4: been plenty of videos that have been out there from

437
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 4: podcasts and these former players have been asked, who hate

438
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 4: you the hardest?

439
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 5: I'm sure you maybe got this forwarded to you.

440
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 4: Marshawn Lynch said that you were the one that hit

441
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 4: him the hardest of the particular game.

442
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 5: Who was the running back that you a loved facing

443
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 5: or be hated facing? Maybe for the same reason.

444
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 2: They were that good.

445
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 3: Love facing, always love facing Joseph and it was always

446
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 3: fun going against him. Hometown Houston kid. The tough I mean,

447
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 3: Maurice Jones Drew. He was always tough because I always

448
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 3: say he's so he's so short, but he was so powerful,

449
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 3: Like as soon as I got off a block and

450
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 3: saw him, it was like he was almost knocking you

451
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 3: back because he was so powerful.

452
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 2: Who else he had? Oh, the guys from Tennessee, Chris.

453
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 3: Johnson, Yeah, man, you talk about it's the fastest guy

454
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 3: I played against.

455
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 2: It's probably a highlight of him running like an eighty

456
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 2: yard touchdown with me. I'm not catching up. Yeah he was.

457
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 3: He was definitely dynamic and man, had that's the fastest

458
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 3: guy I ever played.

459
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 4: This is when you start feeling a little bit older.

460
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 4: Maurice Jones, Drew's son just committed to U C l A.

461
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:52,040
