00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Quick bow left side has the first Animore up the

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: side by forty thirty forty ten five touchdown Joston. There

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: is no off season for your Houston Texans. Game day

00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 1: is every day. No, it's Texans all lexus. Oh yes,

00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: it is, Hello Texans. Good evening, Mark Vandermayer, John Harris

6
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: with you, joined by the General John mcclaim because it's Thursday,

7
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: and we set our clocks and our calendars to that

8
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: happening each and every Thursday, and busy week, busy weeks

9
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: for your Houston Texans since the startup training camp, actually

10
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 1: before that too, But today was one of those days

11
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 1: that we'll remember when the Texans had practice called off

12
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: and barbecue was called in and I had some. Johnny

13
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,559
Speaker 1: was real delish, So I hope you got some. Did

14
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: you get some of the barbecue? I didn't. I got

15
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: a whole heaping of something else. So yeah, no, I didn't,

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: I did. Was I was? I not? Daughter out of

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 1: the first of all, I didn't know. I mean I

18
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: knewbout the barbecue, but my mother had an appointment to

19
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 1: see her doctor out in the Woodlands, so I was

20
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: driving all day trying to take care of that. Oh oh,

21
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: so that was the heaping of traffic and other issues

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 1: you had to take care of. The General. John McClean

23
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: joins us, Johnny, and General, how's it going tonight with you?

24
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: I know you didn't get the barbecue because you probably

25
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: weren't in the building unless you made it over here

26
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: in time, just in time to have the news that

27
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 1: practice was called off. We were in the building the media,

28
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: but of course the media wouldn't be invited to a barbecue.

29
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: It was a team bonding session and the media is

30
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: not part of team bonding. And that reminded me when

31
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: David Culley told us that practice was called off and

32
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: that the interviews at the end of the day, which

33
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: causes the worst possible time to have interviews, when those

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: interviews were not going to be made available. Of course,

35
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: everybody was happy about it, and it reminded me when

36
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: I'm Phillips was the coach of the Oilers the Love

37
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: youa Blue Oilers. He used to like to do team

38
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: binding things. There was times that he would have pizza

39
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: parties because other times he would stop practicing, have an

40
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: ice cream truck come out on the field when it

41
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: was hot and the players were sweating and spitting and

42
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: everything is just so terrible. He tell them take off

43
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: the pads and they pass out ice cream. I remember

44
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: one time at a training camp in Sangelo, might have

45
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: been like nineteen eighty. They had a pizza and bear

46
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: party in the lobby of the dorm and Willie Nelson

47
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: and Mo Bandy came by to play their guitars. And

48
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: those are the kind of things that he liked to

49
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: do to bond And I asked him one to them,

50
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: why do you do the things you do? And he

51
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: liked to roam a lot of white players with black players,

52
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: and he said, I'm trying to create a family atmosphere.

53
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: I can't control them when they when we're at home

54
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: and they go home at night, but when I do

55
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: have control of them, of them, I want to build

56
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: that family atmosphere because I believe when the times are

57
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: their toughest, you might subconsciously let down your friends that

58
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: are next to you and behind you. The boy, You're

59
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: gonna dig a little deeper for your family. And that's

60
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: why they were able to pull off some of you

61
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: Manga's upset victories in the playoffs San Diego nineteen seventy

62
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: nine at New England nineteen to seventy eight. So that's

63
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: the first thing I thought about that today when they

64
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: talked about barbecue for bonding general, it's forty years after

65
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: the facts. We know things have changed. But do you

66
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: think that works? And I mean I do. I think

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: chemistry obviously is a big part of it. And I

68
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: know if you told me, hey, there's no practice, we're

69
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,119
Speaker 1: gonna go eat barbecue. And basically the ticket is you're

70
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: sitting talk with your teammates and get to know them

71
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: a little bit more. But do you think it still

72
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: works with you the changes in salaries and you know,

73
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: egos involved in all that. Do you think that still works?

74
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: It works if you've got talent and coaching. You know,

75
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: if you don't have talent and coaching, you're gonna look

76
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: back and say, boy, they wasted their time. And I

77
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: think that can help when things are even. And if

78
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: you think about that, you know it may sound kind

79
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: of corn pone now, but then when you look at

80
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: what the Oilers were able to do back then, and

81
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: they had talent, they got a bunch of guys into

82
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: po Football Hall of Fame. But the idea for bum Phillips,

83
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: the reason he did it is when things are close

84
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: and you know you're lining up from a guy of

85
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: third and one across from you, and maybe subconsciously you

86
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: don't want to let your family member down. And I

87
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: don't know if it worked or not. They had really

88
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,799
Speaker 1: good teams. It didn't work in two AFC championship games

89
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: against Pittsburgh because maybe they had more B sessions, they

90
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 1: had more talent, and they didn't work in Oakland after

91
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty seasoned in the playoffs. But one are

92
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: the things I used to like about going on the

93
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: road for training camp, And I tried to talk by

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: mcnarian to this, and O two was I used to

95
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: watch players spend a lot of time together and a

96
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: lot of good natured back and forth. Now, back then,

97
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: they drank a lot, you know, they didn't worry about

98
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: things like they do today. At players that get out

99
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: of meetings at nine thirty, curfews at eleven, and I've

100
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: seen some linemen drink a case of beer by themselves

101
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: in that hour and a half and then they go

102
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: to bed, and they get up in the morning at

103
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 1: six am and have to go practice. But times for

104
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: doing that we're different. And the reason I tried to

105
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: get Bob mcnaior to go to San Antonio like the

106
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: others did. Is the greatest training camp site I've ever seen,

107
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: on the campus of Trinity University, one of the most

108
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: exclusive cities in the country, and it was conducive to

109
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: be on that. It was perfect for a team. Plus,

110
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: I got a lot of Marriott points down town and

111
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: we could play up anywhere we wanted free any turn

112
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: during training camp. And Bob said, I don't know why

113
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: you want to leave. Well, we're trying to create interests.

114
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: And I said, oh, let me tell you, you've got

115
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: a lot better chance to win if you'll go to Trinity.

116
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: They wouldn't let the Cowboys come there because they had

117
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: too many fans and they trample on the flowers and

118
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: the grass. Well, I think that's scrimmage. They had an

119
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: OZ three and we talked about that when Parcels was

120
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: just getting in with the Cowboys and Tony Romo was

121
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent and all of that. Clint Sturner

122
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: was there. I think they should do that every year.

123
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: After week one of captors go to San Antonio scrimmage

124
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: and then go back to wherever you were. If you

125
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: want to return to your camp site because it's great

126
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: practice and it's great for the state. It's great to

127
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: get football awareness going general. Let me ask you this,

128
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: because I feel a void tonight that there's no fourth

129
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: preseason game. I might be in the minority. In fact,

130
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm in the minority, I'm sure, but I feel a void.

131
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: I like this one. I like the last house on

132
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: the left game, the game where it's rookies and guys

133
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: you're gonna cut and people are clinging for dear career

134
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: life in this outing. But we don't get it tonight.

135
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: I know we get the seventeenth regular season game, which

136
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: is nice, but I feel this void this weekend with

137
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: no NFL. Your thoughts, Boy, you just wasted a lot

138
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: of breath. Uh, there's no there's no there's no oxygen

139
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: left in the room after that. Grant my goodness. I'll

140
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: tell you who misses it like you do. Wives, girlfriends,

141
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: moms and dads, brothers and sisters. They like watching and

142
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: last preseason game. Because that you think that's all that's

143
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: watching at HUM. I don't know. You know what, the

144
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: game gets good raised a branch of scrubs trading it,

145
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: trading it for a Carolina game on National TV that

146
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: they got a chance to win, going against Sam Darneld

147
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: thirty eighth and passer rating last year. If the Texans

148
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: win that game and start two and one, you're gonna

149
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: be You're gonna say, what in the world was I

150
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,239
Speaker 1: think in fourth preseason game. I don't want to trade back.

151
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: I like the seventeenth the game, don't get me wrong,

152
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: but I also liked this week. I'm just saying, it's

153
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: kind of weird laboration. You want eighteen games, You're saying,

154
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: I guess, well, general along those lines, it feels, oh,

155
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: maybe just because they're going to seventeen, it feels inevitable

156
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: they getting eighteen. When do you think that might happen?

157
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: When the NFL wants it and the union, they will

158
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: give the union something it wants to entice them to

159
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: do it. You know, it was a hard sell. A

160
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: lot of players didn't like it. Remember there was a

161
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: time about, okay, give players an automatic game off during

162
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: the season so they won't get too tired on that

163
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: seventeenth game. And no player wants to take off, and

164
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: so they they have kept the practice squad sixteen. I'm

165
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: for doing that all the time. You know, you can

166
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: have your six veterans. I think that's great. So rosters

167
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: are bigger. You can move players off ir anytime you want,

168
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: as long as they were part of the fifty three.

169
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: So that's how you compensate for the injuries. And the

170
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: thing that gets me and I remember there used to

171
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: be twelve games, in fourteen games, in sixteen games, and

172
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: every time they increased the schedule, media just ran it

173
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: about statistics won't matter anymore. They're skewered. You know what

174
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: about Johnny Blood rushing for four hundred and eighty seven

175
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: yards when it was ten games. Nobody's going to recognize

176
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: his superiority, and he's in the Hall of Fame. But

177
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: so when you think about eighteen games, you better rush

178
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: for fifteen hundred yards if you want to be taken seriously.

179
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: But other than the stats, they're gonna do it. I mean,

180
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't wreak havoc with the schedule. They would have

181
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: done it. Now if the union had agreed to it,

182
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: they may have to increase the rosters a little more.

183
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing. They will not do it

184
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: if COVID nineteen is still an issue. By the way,

185
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: in just a few moments here, because Clint and Ron

186
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: were doing it along with Jim Mud, the producer our

187
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: three meet Barbecue play guys, get your answers ready, but

188
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: not yet, not yet. That's a little tease for a

189
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: little bit later on before we see goodbye here. But general,

190
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: let's talk about the fifty three. What stood out to

191
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: you when you saw that fifty three man roster announced

192
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: the initial fifty three? Anyway, what stood out to you

193
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: as far as the Texans set it up? Cutting GEEKIQT,

194
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: who's their only legitimate slot receiver with Anthony Miller so

195
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: hurt with his shoulder separation that Nick Cass told us

196
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: yesterday he said he'll play this season. And by the way,

197
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: I want to, I said, I texted Nick about this.

198
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: Having the GM come talk to us for over twenty

199
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: six minutes was tremendous and how much we appreciated him

200
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: doing that because most gems don't talk at a time

201
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: like this, They just turn it over to the coach.

202
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: And that was great for him to do it because

203
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 1: he gave us a lot of insight, gave us a

204
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: lot of quotes. You know, you get tired of interviewing

205
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,719
Speaker 1: the same people all the time. So QT, who is

206
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: now with Indy, which is no surprise considering he had

207
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: two one hundred yard games with the Colts. But they

208
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: have three legitimate receivers Nico Collins, the rookie, and the

209
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: two Vets Brandon Cooks and Chris Coddny and I'll guarantee

210
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: you those are not going to be there. Only three

211
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: legitimate receivers. Andre Roberts of course as a return guy,

212
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: not a receiver. So there's no way they go into

213
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: Jacksonville with those three receivers and nobody else. John The

214
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 1: Texas put aj Moore on IR and they bring back

215
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas. Now, Mark and I talked about this about

216
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: waiver claims and those kind of things, that there would

217
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: be a few of those. We haven't seen any of

218
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: those come down a do you expect any of those

219
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: to happen? And one position that stood out in particular

220
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: just because of the numbers, not because of them, I

221
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: guess in some case the players, but running backs. We

222
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: know they're not gonna bring five running backs. But how

223
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: do you think it goes down? Because Nick did say, hey,

224
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: look there's some guys we didn't want to subject to

225
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: waivers because we know that some team is gonna snap

226
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: him up, and Mark and I looked at each other.

227
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: We knew, Hey, that's probably Scotti Phillips. He's talking about

228
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: how do you think running back breaks down as they before?

229
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: As you said, John, they're not going to have all

230
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: of them active. I think they'd have three and depending

231
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: on the game plan, how they think they can attack

232
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: the opponent. Mark Ingram's the starter. They'll play three guys

233
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: in a game. I believe David Alie told us this

234
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: week it's running back by committee. But if there's a

235
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: hot hand, they'll stick with him. If there's a odd hand,

236
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: he'll start the next game. And I'll tell you what

237
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: I want to see Scotty Phillips playing with the first team.

238
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: I don't want them to wait till the last two

239
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: games and put him in like the Texans did. Gary

240
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: Kubiak and his staff did with another undrafted rookie practice

241
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: squad slash special teams player who turned out to be

242
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 1: pretty good and had two good games at the end

243
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: of the year, Arian Foster, and they didn't know what

244
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: they had with him, and they drafted Ben Tate and

245
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: then Arion turned out to be the best running back

246
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: in history. I'm not saying Scottie Phillips is going to

247
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: be Aaron Foster. I'm just saying their path to the

248
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: roster has been the same. At some point I want

249
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: to see him. We're playing with starters against starters, and

250
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: let's see what he can do. John McLean joining US

251
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: General will get to more Texans stuff. Just to moment here.

252
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: What about the Colts. Carson Wentz close contact and he

253
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: spoke with the media about not being vaccinated, said he

254
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: thinks about the protocols a lot, keeps them up at night.

255
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: In fact, the subject does, but he's still not going

256
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: to do it. Your thoughts on what they're facing this year.

257
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: They've had some good news lately with Quentin Nelson getting

258
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: back and Ryan Kelly and that kind of thing, But

259
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: what about their situation then come poop. I agree with

260
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: Michael Irvin and so many others. If you're supposed to

261
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: do everything you can to help your team win and

262
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: you don't get vaccinated' you're not doing it by not

263
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: being vaccinated. If he's around another player or a trainer

264
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: or anybody in organization, it test positive, he's he's got

265
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: to be out for five days and that could be

266
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: at the end of the week and cost him a

267
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: game where if you're vaccinated and you're around somebody that

268
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: test positive, you don't miss any time. So it just

269
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: makes no sense for all these numbskulls to not do it.

270
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see the effect that COVID nineteen

271
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: is going to have on rosters and to end of

272
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: this season you look back and say, man, Carson missed

273
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: that one game, and we missed the playoffs by one game.

274
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: You know, Ryan tanney Hill has been out. I just

275
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: don't and he's vaccinated, but I guess he is, but

276
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: I just don't understand it. You see John Smoltz, who

277
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: sounds like one of the smartest guys I've ever heard,

278
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: he won't get vaccinated. Now has to do it in

279
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: the studio. I don't know what he's gonna do when

280
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: he goes to do Fox games. But it's something I've

281
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: never understood. Players don't, you know, other than Cole Beasley,

282
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: nobody is explaining exactly why they don't do it. But

283
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: you are hurting your team if you don't do it.

284
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: So I'm thinking the Colts they're gonna have problems with

285
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen, and I think they're going to miss the playoffs.

286
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: John a team that dealt with this in some way,

287
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: shape or form. There were a few comments made about

288
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: how Cam Newton wasn't vaccinated and that maybe led to

289
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: his release from the Patriots, But now it's mac Jones fact.

290
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: Mac Jones, I think it is the only quarterback on

291
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: the roster. I don't know. I think they added back

292
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer. Not totally sure if that's become official. But

293
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: what do you make of that situation in New England

294
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: with Cam being flat out released and mac Jones the

295
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: rookie taken over. Well, we knew it was only a

296
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: matter of time, and of course Cam Newton got cut

297
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: because number one, he hadn't played since throwing the ball,

298
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: well since his shoulder surgery two years ago, and the

299
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: fact that he's not vaccinated, that's another thing. He goes

300
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: to try out with another team, he's got to set

301
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: out for five days. Meanwhile, that team could have three

302
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: other guys coming in there. I thought Mac Jones would

303
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: be playing by the time the Texas play up. Our

304
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: football section will be in a chronicle Sunday is all

305
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: over our website, Texas SportsNation dot com. And I had

306
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: to pick Texans record, they play four quarterbacks that went

307
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: to the playoffs last year. Last year they played and

308
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: they played eight starting with that murderer's row of my Holmes,

309
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: Jackson and Rothelisburger, and they only played two quarterbacks that

310
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: went to the playoffs last season. After the fourth game,

311
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: they're going to play five rookie quarterbacks, including five games

312
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: against rookie quarterbacks, including Trevor Lawrence twice. Last year you

313
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 1: have me rookie quarterbacks. They played Jake Luke. That was it.

314
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: So the whole schedule of being a third place schedule

315
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 1: compared to the fifth place schedule is a huge difference.

316
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: And for everybody picking the Texans to win one or

317
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: two games around the country, they should analyze things like

318
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 1: that because in my prediction, I have them beating let's

319
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: see Trevor Lawrence at home, Mac Jones at home, Zach

320
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: Wilson at home, Sam Darnell, and then I have them

321
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: winning the last game against the Titans because Mike Vrabel

322
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: rest as starters, so I have him going five and twelve. Ah. Yes,

323
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: but the schedule is a little bit of a wolf

324
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: in sheep's clothing here in that You're right about the quarterbacks.

325
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: That's fact. But Kyler Murray, I'm not saying he's unbelievable,

326
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 1: but he could make that jump. Also, Matthew Stafford with

327
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: the Rams, although he didn't go to the playoffs last year,

328
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: he's now with the Rams and he should be a

329
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: whole lot better. What do you think of that division general?

330
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: The NFC West one of the best, if not the

331
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: best divisions in football, and how it's going to be

332
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: this year as the Texans will face every team out West.

333
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: Right now, it's the best hands down. By the time

334
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: the Texans will play the forty nine Ers at the

335
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: end of the year, Trey Lance will be the starting quarterback.

336
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: You know, if you're starting Trey Lance, who's played one

337
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: game last season, you know he's gonna need time. You

338
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,719
Speaker 1: would think he need time. So I have them finished

339
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: in the last I have the Rams winning division, Seahawks

340
00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: in a wild card, and the Cardinals don't make the playoffs.

341
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: What do you think of the double quarterbacks or the

342
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: rotating quarterbacks in the San Francisco forty nine ers preseason

343
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: until last weekend and the likelihood of continuing that into

344
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: the regular season. I'm guessing that if Kyle Shannon, we're

345
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 1: going to do that in the first game. He wouldn't

346
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: have shown it in the preseason game, but maybe he will.

347
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: You know, quarterbacks don't like that. Way back when the

348
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 1: Cowboys started in the sixties and Tom Landry rotate the

349
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: quarterbacks every other play, it just drove them crazy. And

350
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna work. The quarterbacks are like

351
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: every other players. They need to play, they need consistency,

352
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: they need to be able to recover from a mistake

353
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: on the next play. And but I can't imagine that

354
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan will do that now. As long as Garoppolo

355
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 1: is healthy, he's a better quarterback than Trey Lance. Unless

356
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: you're looking down the road like it next season, John

357
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: the Athletic, The Athletics, Mike Sando. He pulled a number

358
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: of NFL executives people whoever it was to rank the

359
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: teams in the AFC. Predictably, Chiefs number one, Bills number two, three,

360
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: and four were kind of interesting because I would have

361
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: thought it might have been flipped, but the NFL executives

362
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: said Ravens number three and the Browns number four. If

363
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: you were a betting man, would you bet that the

364
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 1: Ravens would finish ahead of the Browns all things considered,

365
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: everybody staying healthy, Lamar not getting COVID anymore. Do you

366
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: think the Ravens would be a team you'd put ahead

367
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 1: of the Browns in the a FC. Well, I put

368
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: the Titans, I out of both of them in number three,

369
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: and then I put the Browns because I picked the

370
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: Browns to win the Super Bowl in our football section

371
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: because I wanted to be different. And I'm pretty sure

372
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 1: there's people in Cleveland in the media probably doing that.

373
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: But if you look at the Browns roster, nobody's got

374
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 1: more talent than they did. They are amazing how talent

375
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: teams dot down over the last four or five years.

376
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: Now they got they got to make sure it comes

377
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: to fruition, and you guys know how hard it is

378
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: for them to win at home because you can't throw

379
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: the ball most of the time because of the terrible

380
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 1: wind coming off Lake Erie. But I think I put

381
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 1: in Baltimore fifth. But I think Tennessee averaged thirty one

382
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: points without Julio Jones, and I think that they worked

383
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: real hard to improve their defense, which will be better.

384
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 1: I think the Ravens are always solid but I couldn't

385
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: pick the Ravens over the Browns. I pick the Browns

386
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: to win that division. John On Saturday, University of Houston

387
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: facing Texas Tech Big Twelve expansion in the wind here

388
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: with U, h UCF, Cincinnati PYU reportedly likely to head

389
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: to the Big twelve. Your thoughts on the expansion those schools,

390
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: how it's all going to go down? Well, Brian T.

391
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: Smith from the Chronicle just broke a store that's on

392
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: our website, Texas Sports Nation. You have h is going

393
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,879
Speaker 1: to the Big Twelve. I think that's great. They wanted

394
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: to go for years. I hope they had BYU and

395
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: UCF and Cincinnati. And because some of those programs are

396
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: pretty good, you know, fight back, don't tucktail and run.

397
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: And I'm happy for you of H. The Long Orams

398
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 1: have kept you of H had the Big Twelve because

399
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: they didn't want you have H to have more of

400
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: a foothold recruiting in the Houston area. And now the

401
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: Long Orams got no say whatsoever. They'll go take over

402
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: the SEC. So I think it's tremendous for Cougar fans.

403
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: I think it's tremendous for the Big Twelve. I just

404
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: talk to Cougars, don't beat up on my bears to bed. Also,

405
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: make basketball is better because you have h is better

406
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: in Oklahoma, in Texas and the Big twelves of basketball

407
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: conference because Big twelve as a defending national champion who

408
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 1: was at all people that were around the older heads

409
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: like us. How big a deal is it when Southwest

410
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: Conference teams played each other like Texas Texas playing Houston.

411
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: Does that matter anymore? It doesn't matter. No, it doesn't

412
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 1: matter anymore. I'll be at that game, and it's big

413
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: because both want to win. And I like all the

414
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: schools that were in the Southwest Conference. It's what I

415
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: grew up on. I was at you of H's first

416
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: game in the Southwest Conference in which they just humiliated

417
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 1: Baylor at Baylor Stadium, and I wish the Cougars all

418
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 1: the luck. If Baylor hadn't won the basketball tournament, I

419
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: was hoping to Cougars would. So I think it's gonna

420
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: be great for the Cougars to be in a Big twelve,

421
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: not just in football for Dana Holgerson, but Calvin Sampson

422
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: and the Cougars and basketball. Think about that, you got

423
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: two of the top teams from the country last year

424
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: playing in the same conference. General, thanks so much for

508
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: don't know why. It just feels like the end of

509
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: the week. Oh because of the team, because they had

510
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,080

511
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: that's why. Is that What's exactly why I thought it

512
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: was Friday? All day long, I kept screwing that up.

513
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, okay, tomorrow it's Texas Tech. You

514

00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,760

527
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,080

528
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: a minute, they're not playing. Oh yeah, Sam Houston is

529
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: all right, very cool? Um Bama Miami on Saturday, by

530
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: the way, Yeah, wow, interest Eric King, don't bury the lead.

531
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: Don't bury the lead. Oh Bill O'Brian coach and defense

532
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: with that Alabama? Uh yeah, don't here we go bury

533
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: the lead. Listen, that's gonna be really interesting. I mean, Mark,

534
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 1: if you think about and I mean this is this

535
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: is no um uh indication about you know, thoughts on

536
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: Bill or anything like that. They lost Mac Jones, who

537
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: will start for the Patriots week one as a rookie.

538
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: They lost DeVante Smith, the Heisman Trophy winner. They lost

539
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: Nagi Harris, another first rounders, Alex and Leatherwood, a first

540
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: round off, it's lineman Deonte Brown all Yes to See

541
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 1: and all American. They lost Landon Dickerson, All American center

542
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: and I think he won the Rimmyteam Award. Those players

543
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: are all gone, and the tight end one of the

544
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: tight ends they were gonna rely on. It sounds like

545
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: he had some issues the practice and everything going on,

546
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: so it sounds like he may not play a whole

547
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: lot and they got to face Miami. Now I don't

548
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: think Miami's loaded on defense, but they got a couple

549
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: couple of players on that side. This is going to

550
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: be I hate to say it's for Bill, but this

551
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: is a no win situation, no win at all, because

552
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: if he does well, you're supposed to do well, right,

553
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: And if you don't do well, you screwed it up

554
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 1: right exactly, and it's his fault. And that's that's gonna

555
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: be tough. Now, he does have Bryce Young his quarterback

556
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 1: form a modern day star who played against Djo, who

557
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: battled it out in high school, had one of the

558
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: great high school games. Everyone those two last played in

559
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. But Bryce Young could play, and he's gonna

560
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,719
Speaker 1: be really, really fun to watch, and apparently he's already

561
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: made well over well over one hundred thousand dollars. I

562
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: think he's made almost a million dollars in nil money. Geez,

563
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: yeah almost. I want to say this is back in July,

564
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: he Nick Saban had said, I think at one of

565
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,479
Speaker 1: the coaching conventions said, yeah, Bryce Young has made well

566
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: over a million dollars in nil money. I'm like, whoa.

567
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: And that was the best thing he could have done

568
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: it for recruiting. I think he's actually in Texas. I

569
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: think it was here in Texas. He said, Like I've

570
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: said it before, the good schools are gonna find ways

571
00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: to make the introduction with some of their players with

572
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: people who could make them good in il cash instantly.

573
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. I thought Herb Street made

574
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: some great points on the Flutie Flakes podcast, by the way,

575
00:31:55,680 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: about just building great relationships with the university commit for

576
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: the long haul. But that's a whole other subject for

577
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: another day. Johnny quickly three meat plate go brisket ribs

578
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: sausage is easy to me. Yeah, you know what exactly?

579
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: You and I think alike here this is an absolute

580
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: to me, brisket ribs sausage. And I know Clinton was

581
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: talking about Texas Star Grill Shop. By the way, I

582
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: got a trigger from there, and it's all freaking believable.

583
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I've been smoking and I'm gonna have you

584
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: over my friend and it'll be good. But it is us.

585
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. It's a whole other world to me because

586
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm like a very junior varsity griller

587
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: and now I'm moving up in the world. I'm gonna

588
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 1: get nil money for anyway. I'm like that too. Now. Look,

589
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: it's a tasting food, but I just feel like you

590
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 1: can't go wrong. But Jimmy picked a pork steak, and

591
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: Jimmy helped me out. If you're there, a pork steak,

592
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: half a ship and okay, Hapenio sausage, Jimmy rock On,

593
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: I mean my sausage, Halipenia sausage. I'm good now. I

594
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: will say, if you dunked the chicken like I've seen

595
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 1: Bob Gibson's do dunked the chicken Alabama white sauce, oh boy,

596
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: that I like. We had that Nashville when we were

597
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: in Nashville one time. Mark we had that when we

598
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 1: Southern Dinner and it was really really good. They dunk

599
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: it in Alabama white sauce. The pork steak I can't

600
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: get with. But you could, you could. You could get

601
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 1: me on a little pulled pork. But that's still is

602
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: gonna end up fourth behind. Here's such a Carolina guy,

603
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: you know, all right? You could get me on the

604
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: pork steak if it's prepared very well and tender and

605
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: everything like that. Boy, we're getting everybody hungry here. Anyway,

606
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: let's do this now, who's better? Are you ready? Okay?

607
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: Let's go all right, let's go some divisional action here.

608
00:33:55,040 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: Who's better? The AFC North or the NFC West. O

609
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: the AFC North or the NFC West? Now stay with

610
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: me here. You get the Ravens, you get the Browns,

611
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: you get the Steelers. You have three playoff teams there, right.

612
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: I know you have Cincinnati Sininnati trailing, but you have

613
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow coming back here. Now the NFC West, you've

614
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: got the forty nine Ers losing season last year, but

615
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: they get Garoppolo back and a bunch of other guys back,

616
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: and they've got Trey Lance. Right, you've got Arizona, who

617
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: is a sexy team according to everybody, although Kyler Murray

618
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: through like three passes in the preseason and they're just

619
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: gonna let it go like he's a ten year VET

620
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 1: who has no issues at all. We'll see how that goes. Seattle. Seattle,

621
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: now they have some issues too, and I just feel

622
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: like the unhappiness is kind of building up there to

623
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 1: the point where are they going to be able to

624
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 1: rally the troops once again? You know? And you have

625
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: the Rams with Matthew Stafford, like you could see things

626
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: going wrong with any one of those teams, and I

627
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: guess the AFC North too, But what are your thoughts here?

628
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: I think you let's match him up. Okay, let's say

629
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 1: you go Ravens and Seahawks. A. That's a that's a

630
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: tremendous battle. Then you go Browns and Rams. That's another

631
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: good one. Then I think the separators here because I

632
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: think the forty nine Ers would beat the Steelers fully

633
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: and completely healthy on both sides. And I feel like

634
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals would beat the Bengals straight up. And I

635
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: think the top two might be they might be split.

636
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 1: So that's three one to me. The NFC West because

637
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: when you ask it, immediately gut reaction. NFC West I

638
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: think the Steelers will be a little bit better than

639
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: maybe I originally thought, because it's just it's the Steelers there.

640
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: They never take in because the defense is so good.

641
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers are gonna be The Steelers are

642
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: gonna be much, probably better than than we think. I

643
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: think Ben's on his last legs. I think this is

644
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: the last we see of him. They're better, but a

645
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: bad year for them is eight and eight. Yeah, but

646
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: if you matched up them with the forty nine ers,

647
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 1: I mean, the forty nine ers are liable to finish

648
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: three and fourteen or fourteen and three. I mean, really,

649
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: it comes down to Kenya group stay healthy when it

650
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: has been healthier six and ten or six and eleven.

651
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 1: When they've been healthy, they went all the way to

652
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,799
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. So it's it's hard to really go at

653
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: the forty ninetys. I just think the forty nine ers,

654
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,479
Speaker 1: if they stay healthy, that's a ten to eleven win team,

655
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: and I think they're they would be right there in

656
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: to mix. I don't know if I'm buying Matt Stafford,

657
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, but I am buying Jalen Ramsey,

658
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald that defense. I am buying I am buying

659
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 1: that group. Is he better go for that team? For

660
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:49,479
Speaker 1: that team? Yes, well how much better? How much better though?

661
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 1: Are they than they were last years? Like a step forward?

662
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: But I'm not ready to put them. I'm not ready

663
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: to give them the division with San Francisco healthy and

664
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson coming back. But it'd be very interesting in

665
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: Seattle because Seattle is gonna start running at Sea mcvayh

666
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 1: offense with Shane Waldron, So I'm curious to see what

667
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:14,280
Speaker 1: Seattle does. I don't think Seattle is going to completely implode.

668
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 1: They got too many players for that. But I think

669
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: I think Stafford makes a difference. But I think the

670
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: Niners staying healthier going to be the team. I would

671
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 1: roll the dice, say Niners, but I'm saying NFC West

672
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: over the AFC North, AFC East, or the AFC South.

673
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: Oh Man, Ye have Buffalo AFC Championship game participant. You

674
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: have the Titans AFC Championship game participant from the year before. Yeah,

675
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,839
Speaker 1: the Cults, who were a playoff team last year. If

676
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,360
Speaker 1: the Cults still had a healthy Philip Rivers maybe a

677
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,280
Speaker 1: little bit younger, I think their outlook would be completely different.

678
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: But whence with his health issues to begin with, and

679
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: then you throw the COVID I don't want to get

680
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: vaccinated stuff. On top of that, with lack of availability

681
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: and what they have behind him, you start to look

682
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: and say, I don't know about them. McClain just said

683
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: he doesn't think they're making the playoffs, and you know,

684
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 1: then you have the Texans and the Jags and who

685
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: knows because there's a lot of mystery with each of

686
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: these teams. And then you look at the East. You know,

687
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: I mentioned Buffalo Miami. I don't know. Really the Patriots, okay,

688
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: should be better. The opt outs are back. It's the Patriots,

689
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 1: but rookie quarterback from the get go in New England,

690
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: and he's you know, this guy's not Tom Brady. You know,

691
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: every time they talk about Matt Jones, they show all

692
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: the mac Jones highlights from the preseason, and I'm looking

693
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 1: and I'm like, uh, you know, all right, great checkdowns

694
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,239
Speaker 1: and a lot of stuff like that. Now good, good percentage,

695
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: didn't turn it over. I like that for him, hate

696
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: that for you know, because I don't like the Patriots.

697
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: But we'll see how it goes. I'm saying, AFC South

698
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: and that's a little bit of a homer call. But

699
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: I think, hey, come to a couple of things. Number One,

700
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: you remember what the Titans did the Bills last year

701
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: in Nashville, absolutely smoked them forty two to seventeen or

702
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: something like that, just blitch creeked them. Now that's last year.

703
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: I get that, and the Bills from that point got

704
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: better and better and better. This year, I would flip that.

705
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,240
Speaker 1: I think the Bills would end up beating beating the Titans.

706
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: We have to me there two wild cards, the Dolphins

707
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 1: on THEFC side and the Colts on the side, the

708
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,720
Speaker 1: Colts and COVID. And then you already had Carson Wentz

709
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 1: being a wild card as it was, so now all

710
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: of a sudden you got this whole COVID thing. Darius

711
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: Leonard spoke today and that was a mess. If you

712
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 1: just follow anybody from any of the media from Indie,

713
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: they're just up in arms like what is going on?

714
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 1: And they're not the only ones. Chris Ballard had had

715
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: a press availability yesterday and it was kind of the

716
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: same feeling from Chris, like, look, we're given these guys

717
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 1: as much information as we possibly can. And there's Darius

718
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: Leonard saying, well, you know, I don't have enough information.

719
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, the information that we have gotten from our

720
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: doctors and our people here in Houston, it's it's unreal.

721
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: It's absolutely unbelievable. The information that they have shared with

722
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: us and share with us throughout the entire pandemic. It's

723
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: been unreal. The zoom calls that we've been on, that

724
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 1: Jack has led, that we have done, it's it's unbelievable information.

725
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: And then they're sitting We're not for information like what's

726
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: putting doctors out there from Houston Methodist for the entire

727
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: staff to ask questions. I mean not just hear from them,

728
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: but ask questions. Yes, find out stuff. Look, I am

729
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:37,240
Speaker 1: the biggest doctor internet out there, or one of them anyway, Okay,

730
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 1: I am doctor vander Webb. I use the web for

731
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: so much stuff and I can't find Look, I see

732
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: a lot of complaining and questioning. But you know, if

733
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 1: there's a secret sauce to the vaccinate, I don't want

734
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: to get into this, but yeah, I don't hate what

735
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: you're saying. Look, I did it, and here I am.

736
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: And you know, when I was in the booth at

737
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: Green Bay, our first game. I was like, you know,

738
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,799
Speaker 1: you could basically put an anything at me right now,

739
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: and I'd be happy to be here because I'm there

740
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL booth. And yes, guys play the game

741
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: all right, So I don't want to get into that,

742
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 1: but it is what it is, and if people don't

743
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 1: want to go, it's, you know, their choice. But you

744
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: know what, with those choices, you live with the consequences

745
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 1: because workplace environment is what it is right now and

746
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: you gotta deal with it. It's just I'm biased in

747
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: this to say the a FC South. You know, I

748
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: was looking at some over unders a couple of days

749
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 1: ago and just kind of looking at them and seeing

750
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:33,320
Speaker 1: what Vegas thinks, and and they're they're fairly They're fairly

751
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: close for the most part. The one that's actually probably

752
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 1: the biggest distance is US. The over Unders four and

753
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,840
Speaker 1: I think the Jets six. But I'll tee it up

754
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: against the Jets any single day, I mean, with with

755
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 1: this squad. So from that perspective, I'm gonna say, I'm

756
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: gonna say AFC South. I do think the Patriots would

757
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,279
Speaker 1: be better, but I think that Dolphins take a step back.

758
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins are the team that I'm like, Oh,

759
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, They've put some money in some guys.

760
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: You know. We know we've seen the Will Fuller's experience

761
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,760
Speaker 1: and what that can be and what it turned into.

762
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with that. We'll see what happens

763
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: with that squad. But I'm not totally buying Miami just ship.

764
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 1: It's gotta be weird for the Dolphins because they keep

765
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,760
Speaker 1: getting asked about you know who, and it's kind of awkward,

766
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: right the report's about the owner, and then it's just

767
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: strange and the quarterback. You want to say, we believe

768
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: in our quarterback, and I know they've said that, but

769
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: you know, words are one thing and actions or another,

770
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,839
Speaker 1: or I guess reported actions. So we'll see. Anyway, Next up,

771
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 1: I want to get into around the league stuff a

772
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: little bit more, and also that Big twelve story, because

773
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: this really is intriguing, especially with what's happening at the

774
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 1: stadium on Saturday with the good Sam Texas Kickoff as

775
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: you have you of h and Texas Tech squaring Off.

776
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: It's Texans Radio. If you love podcast and you love

778
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:09,800
Speaker 1: Houston Texans dot Com. To a child, time spent outside

779
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,360
Speaker 1: is never a waste. Play is a job, and a

780
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: serious one at that, and each day is a new

781
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: opportunity for adventure. At Texas Children's Hospital, we're all about happy,

782
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: healthy kids. And as the official Children's Hospital of the Houston,

783
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: Texas and local sponsor of Play sixty, we join our

784
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,359
Speaker 1: hometown team and hoping that in your house, play never

785
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 1: goes out of style. Welcome back to the conversation. It's

786
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: Texans All Exits on Texans Radio. All right, So here's

787
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 1: the deal. Tomorrow night we have a show at six Monday,

788
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: Texans Radio off as. It'll be Sports Radio sixtent all

789
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 1: day long. I don't know how they're going to set

790
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 1: up the day Labor Day. We're working Labor Day. I

791
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: mean everybody in the building at NRG works on Labor Day.

792
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 1: Players and staff, business opts everything. Because it's game week,

793
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: it's opening weeks, so that's not a holiday for Texas employees.

794
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean they're not going to take advantage of

795
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,879
Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday though if at all possible. However, really

796
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 1: Saturday is not a holiday either, Johnny, because it's the

797
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 1: Texas kickoff. The good Sam Texas kickoff with Texas Tech

798
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: in the University of Houston. And I got to say

799
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 1: that this story about the Big Twelve and you of

800
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,839
Speaker 1: h just adds to the intrigue of this game, makes

801
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:32,959
Speaker 1: it super cool. These are future conference foes. Really with

802
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: this story breaking and I look at the Big Twelve.

803
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: You know, General was talking about, well the long the

804
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: long owners were keeping h out of the Big Twelve,

805
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: And yeah, I got it. But here's the deal. The

806
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: Big Twelve now needs you H. If they still had

807
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: the Aggies, we could say, well, the Aggies and or

808
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:59,240
Speaker 1: UT deliver Houston. But without either of those schools and OU,

809
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 1: although you probably wouldn't do this anyway, you're not getting

810
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 1: the Houston market the way you want, right. Uh. When

811
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: they're good, they do well in the TV ratings. Okay,

812
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:14,240
Speaker 1: maybe not when UT's doing well well, but still pretty

813
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 1: well when they're a winning team. So I think this

814
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: is a very Obviously it's a huge market and this

815
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,479
Speaker 1: is the way to go. Man, they gotta get uh.

816
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 1: Uh is now the pretty girl at the dance and

817
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: they are gonna need the University of Houston in this league. Thoughts.

818
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 1: I think and again you don't want to You don't

819
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 1: want to split the pie just to split the pie.

820
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 1: You don't want to get back to twelve just so

821
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 1: you can say, well, we're the Big twelve again. You

822
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 1: want to make sure that what you are adding to

823
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: the mix makes financial sense. Uh, to me makes I

824
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 1: think it makes financial sense. Now some will argue, all, look,

825
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: you already had Houston aways, but you had Houston in

826
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,919
Speaker 1: large part because you had University of Texas more than likely,

827
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: so you get University Houston. Here's here's one I think

828
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: for the Big twelve that would be interesting. You know,

829
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: general said b YU. By US TV ratings are through

830
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 1: the roof whenever. And I learned that in two thousand

831
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 1: and nine when I went to see BYU Oklahoma up

832
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: in Jerry World by US, I was amazed. I was like,

833
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 1: there are more people here from BYU than Oklahoma. It

834
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,399
Speaker 1: was a it was it was over, it was over

835
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: fifty percent by U. I was like, does big But

836
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: does b YU want this? Yeo, that's the big question.

837
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: That's the question. I don't know that b YU wants it.

838
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 1: But how about Memphis? How about UCF? What about just

839
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 1: taking some of those schools from the AAC and I

840
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:45,960
Speaker 1: hate to say the days AC micro Esco is probably

841
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,760
Speaker 1: like YO, leave my AC alone. Yeah, but Houston and Memphis,

842
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,760
Speaker 1: those are those are two decent markets you bring in UCF.

843
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 1: UCF has grown to a point. Mark. I remember I

844
00:46:56,120 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 1: used to get pamphlets from UCF and at when I

845
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: was coaching Episcopal and they would send, Hey, here's our

846
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: you know, twenty year report card or whatever it is,

847
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,799
Speaker 1: and they would show the beginnings of UCF and it

848
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god. UCF is still such a

849
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,919
Speaker 1: young program. It just wasn't even viable back then. Now

850
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 1: it's a viable product. And actually we'll see that tonight

851
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 1: because UCF in Boise State. That's a heck of a

852
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,439
Speaker 1: game for a Thursday night. UCF taken on Boise State.

853
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 1: And there's another one is Boise State. I know that

854
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 1: Boise States become, you know, a national name. But is

855
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: it enough that the Big Twelve would say, yeah, yeah,

856
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: bring them on, let's let's go, let's do this. I

857
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 1: don't know, but I know you of ancient Memphis would

858
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: sure as heck make a ripple in the Big twelve,

859
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: in the Big twelve area, for sure. You always have

860
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: to think about the markets the schools bring. You know,

861
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: somebody said to me, well what about Yukon because I

862
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: know they're dying on the vine, but you can't, you know,

863
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 1: if they could grab it up again. This is a

864
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,320
Speaker 1: school that played at the Fiesta Bowl, right, yeah, yeah,

865
00:47:56,320 --> 00:48:00,919
Speaker 1: exactly hard to believe. But could they bring you New

866
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,479
Speaker 1: York or Boston or both just enough in that region.

867
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,399
Speaker 1: I don't think the answer is yes. I think if

868
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 1: it was working for them football wise, it would still

869
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 1: be working for them football wise. It's just not you

870
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: Mass would love to be in it. As they're clinging there.

871
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: They're on life support as an independent in Division one.

872
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about those those Northeast options. You're right, you seef.

873
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: They've turned themselves into a really terrific d one for

874
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 1: lack of a better way of putting it, FBS program

875
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 1: Cincinnati obviously very good. I guess you know, based on

876
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: where you are right now, they've got they've got the

877
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 1: targets properly identified. I just don't know about BYUF. I'm

878
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,240
Speaker 1: the PAC twelve. I'd love that BYU in my conference

879
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: because of reasons you said, all right, I know that's

880
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 1: all the time we have for tonight, but it's a

881
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 1: fun conversation. Conference realignment is always interesting. But man, so great,

882
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 1: so great for the University of Houston ten fifteen years ago,

883
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: you thought, are they ever gonna get the facilities they need?

884
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,840
Speaker 1: And with the football stadium the way they've managed to

885
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 1: or the way they've managed to revamp the basketball arena

886
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: which is terrific, and the success of Calvin Sampson's program,

887
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: it is outstanding. So that is going to be great news.

888
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,880
Speaker 1: All right, Johnny, thanks a lot, looking forward to tomorrow

889
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 1: night's show and of course the Bowl. The Bowl, the

890
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: kickoff on Saturday feels like a bowl with Texas Tech

891
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 1: and UH getting together. Some tickets still available. Go to

892
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: Ticketmaster for your seats. Have a great night everyone. Thank

893
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: you Jim Mud for producing Go Texans. This is Texans

894
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 1: Radio on Sports Radio six ten. Two is better than one.

895
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 1: How many times have you heard that one? More than once?

896
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: I bet, because it just adds up. For example, there

897
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: are two, not one, great reasons to fill up with

898
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: Chevron with techron number one unbeatable cleaning power and number two,

899
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 1: or maybe this should be number one unbeatable mileage plus

900
00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,560
Speaker 1: Chevron quits Techron in every grade every gallant of their Asolene.

901
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 1: So that's two, no, way, three unbeatable reasons to go

902
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: with the one and only Chevron. With Tekron Care for

903
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:12,839
Speaker 1: your car. In America, the future belongs to everyone, so

904
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,240
