I'm Mark Vandermer. Welcoming you 4 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 1: to the Hunday Texans Radio Studio with John Harris as 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: we kick off season eight of Texans Radio as we've 6 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 1: known it since two thousand and twelve. Here we go 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: another year, and since the Super Bowls in the books, 8 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: we can say it's twenty nineteen. Johnny, it is happy 9 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: New Year. Happy New Year to everybody. I mean we're 10 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: on February, but happy New yeared everybody. Yeah, you're right. 11 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,639 Speaker 1: That's that's the way you have to think. Like when 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: you're a teacher, you think from August to early June. 13 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,959 Speaker 1: That's how that's your year. You know, when you think 14 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: about as an accountant, you might have different years depending 15 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: on your business school. And when you're talking about football, 16 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: your football year begins in February. Now the league year, 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: the league year starts, that's when it starts getting interesting, 18 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: closer to March that ever before it used to be 19 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: so early, and now everything's pushed back. Well, remember there 20 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: was one year, there was one year last year and 21 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: the year before where the combine and the new league 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: year were very very close. Oh yeah, too close. Was 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: it last year? I think it was. I think it 24 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: was last year. I think there's a little space in 25 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: between this year that I top of my head, but 26 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: there's space, But I think it's but I think it's 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: spaced out pretty well. You've got the combine coming up 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,479 Speaker 1: at the end of this month. Then you've got the 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: end of the end of the league year, beginning of 30 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: the new year, so obviously that means free agency, and 31 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: then a few weeks after that you got the schedule release, 32 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: and you got the draft, and then you've got OTAs, 33 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: mini camps and where you go. It's it's sort of 34 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: spaced out a little bit. I mean, we like it condensed. 35 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: We'd like, you know, end of week game, end of 36 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: week game. We like that kind of routine. It stretches 37 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: things out a little bit, gives everybody a little chance 38 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: to rest and recovering all that kind of stuff. But 39 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: I sort of like it. I sort of like it 40 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: combine and then you've got the free agency period, then 41 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: you've got the draft, OTAs and it just moves on, 42 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: all right. So the combine is February twenty six. Yep, 43 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: that's Tuesday. We'll be on the air Wednesday night from 44 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: the combine. That's when it really gets going, and we'll 45 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: have Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday shows there. Now, the tampering 46 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: it's not officially called that, but that's what we will 47 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: call it. The tampering period when you can start to 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: negotiate with free agents is March eleventh. That goes to 49 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: the thirteenth and the thirteenth, four o'clock Thursday afternoon, four 50 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: o'clock Eastern, so three Central. That's when free agency starts. 51 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: But you're already gonna know where some of the big 52 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 1: names are going based on information that leaks out prior 53 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: to that. I wonder if the NFL has ever thought, 54 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: I wonder if the team personnel has ever thought about 55 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: wanting to move up the end of the league year 56 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: such that, well the beginning end, beginning whatever, before the combine, 57 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: so that teams would end up going to the combine knowing, Okay, 58 00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: well we just picked up this guy in free agent. 59 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: See we just picked up this guy in free agency. 60 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: It sort of changes the model, if you will. What 61 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: about the draft before free agency? Remember that happened during 62 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: the lockout year. That's pretty interesting because there have no 63 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: idea what you are going to get it free agency, 64 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: and you had to draft for need, maybe more than 65 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: you would normally. It just it feels like one should 66 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: be before the other, you know what I mean, one 67 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: should be before the other. I don't know which, but 68 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: it just feels like you kind of have them interspersed 69 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: the way they are. Now that you go to the Common, 70 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: you do all these interviews, and I know not you 71 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: don't draft everybody you have interview with, but at the 72 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: Common you start narrowing it down. You start, these are 73 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: the guys that we need to focus on, and then 74 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a week later, you go in 75 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: free agency and you're like, now, if most most teams 76 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: do it right as the Texans have done and other 77 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: teams have done, they'll known free agency who they're gonna 78 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: go after. It doesn't guarantee they're gonna get those players. 79 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: So there might be in some sense, hey, we're gonna 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: look at these guys in free agency, so maybe we 81 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: don't interview with these particular players now you still have 82 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: an opportunity to bring them to your campus if you will. 83 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: But I think it would it would be interesting if 84 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: the league year took place like move the combine back 85 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: a little bit. Look, I'd love it to start now, 86 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: and I just want the action. Yeah, and I want 87 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: to know he's on the team, you know, because how 88 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: are the Texans gonna do in twenty nineteen. Look, I 89 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: know who the quarterback is. I know certain things about 90 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: this football team, don't get me wrong, But I do 91 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: want to know who they're gonna pick up in free agent. 92 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 1: I do want to know who they're gonna draft, how 93 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna factor in. And there's plenty of stuff to 94 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: talk about with that. In fact, they'll make announcements official 95 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: this week. You've read reports about Tim Kelly becoming the 96 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Bill O'Brien is not commented on this, but 97 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: he's bound to say something or the organization will say 98 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: something this week about these stories. And I think it's 99 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: somebody who Johnny, they really like an awful lot. It's 100 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: hard to evaluate from afar or even from where we 101 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: sit right here, because you don't know how it's gonna go. 102 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: But he likes them a lot. He feels great about 103 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: his offensive brain. You can pretty much assume that if 104 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: he's going to give him this position and this title too, 105 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: because he just doesn't hand out that title so easily. Yeah. Absolutely, 106 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see how if that's indeed the case. 107 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: Nothing's official, no doubt, I'm curious to see how it's 108 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: all structured. And what I mean by that is if 109 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: if Tim does become the offensive coordinator, does he have 110 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: a position? Does he stay with the tight ends? Does 111 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 1: he uh with Sean Ryan off to Detroit? Does he 112 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: become the quarterbacks coach? Do they bring in somebody well 113 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: to become tight ends coach? Right? So as who's Will 114 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: Long you ask? Well, remember the name Matt Lafleur, who's 115 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: now the head coach of the Green Bay Packers. He 116 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: was Will Longing once upon a time. Right, no offensive assistant, 117 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: quality control type guy does a lot. Bill o'bryan's talked 118 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: about Will about during the show here, and he's reportedly 119 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: said to become tight ends. One of the things that 120 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: stand out about those two is they they came in 121 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: as offensive and defensive assistance. Will Long start on the 122 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: defensive side because wherever Vrabel went, Long went like it 123 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: was like almost mini me. I mean, wherever Vrabel was gone, 124 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: I mean Will was with him and along the way 125 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: that that offensive defensive system position can be sort of 126 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: an internship to a position job. So I think we'll 127 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: looked at it and said, look, I want to get 128 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: as much experience, and so they moved him over the 129 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: offensive side, and he's been working with Mike Devlin. He's 130 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: worked at the tight ends at some point, so we'll 131 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: kind of got an understanding of the offensive lines. Are 132 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: getting understanding the offensive side because he worked for the 133 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: first few years on the defense. The one thing about 134 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: those guys, man, the grind never stopped for them. I mean, 135 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: they were always, always, and I mean I hate that 136 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: we're grinding, but it's it's pretty it's kind of the 137 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: work you have to do. It is a grind they 138 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: were in. Those guys are in when some of the 139 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: coaches are not in right okay, and the coaches are 140 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: in all some time, it seems, but there are certain 141 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: situations where those guys would be here. I think they 142 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: work more hours than your average offensive or defense whatever 143 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: average assistant coaches do in the building. I could be 144 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: wrong about that, but that's something we can ask Bill 145 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: O'Brien about. But to that point, how is it structured 146 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: meaning and maybe they won't know this, and maybe this 147 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: changes it. And having been with the Texans, you've seen 148 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 1: this structure in different ways, Mark, from the beginning. And 149 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: the one I always remember is when Gary Kubiak named 150 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is offensive coordinator, he still called the plays, right, 151 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: he did. And then then there were times where he 152 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: let Kyle call some of the plays. Yeah. And then 153 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: Gary at some point would take over during a game. 154 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: And I heard this story, and I I don't know if 155 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: this is true or not, but I heard that Kyle 156 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: finally Ship said to Gary, look, either I'd do him 157 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: all or I don't do it at all, like one 158 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: or the other. My father to Washington, right, and he 159 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: let Kyle do it. And I think in two thousand 160 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: and nine ended up having one of the top offense, 161 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: if not, if not the top offense in the league, 162 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: top passer in the league. Yeah, Shob had more passing 163 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: yards than anybody else in the NFL in two thousand 164 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: and nine. Wow, that's that's ten years ago, Johnny. I 165 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: know it feels like two weeks ago, but I know. 166 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: And the thing about it is you can have an 167 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator head coach can still call the plays. And 168 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: if you're wondering, has it ever happened, well, yeah, I 169 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: just mentioned it happened here Kyle Shanahan and Gary Kubyak. Now, 170 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur, we just mentioned him. When he was with 171 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: McVeigh with the Ram two years ago, he didn't call 172 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: the plays and he got an OC job with the 173 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Now he's a head coach. So two years 174 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: after being an offensive coordinator not calling the plays with 175 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: the Rams, and maybe because he knows Sean McVeagh, which 176 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: comes in handy and your job interview, now he's a 177 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: head coach of the Green Bay Packers. And you know, 178 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: I love Matt like I said he was here. H 179 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: And by the way, side note, the Texans are the 180 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: cradle of coaches in the NFL. The Texans are the 181 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: Miami of Ohio of the National Football League because they 182 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: have four count of four former assistant coaches that are 183 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: head coaches in this league. Can you name them? We 184 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: just said, keep going. Kashanahan, we just mentioned him. And 185 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: there's another one, Vic Fangio right for defensive He's the 186 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: incredle of coaches. Johnny prior to two thousand and seven, 187 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm a little I'm a little fuzzy on some of 188 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: that prior to two thousand and seven. But but yeah, 189 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: and so I think and this is this is all. 190 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: It's one of the things that I think. It's interesting 191 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: and it kind of goes on my my rant about 192 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: the depth chart. A particular position doesn't always mean what 193 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: you think it means. And what I mean by that 194 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: is when you see when you see Jadeveon Clowney's position 195 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: of defensive end or outside or outside live back, it 196 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: doesn't really mean everything. Just like general manager, just like 197 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: um offensive line coach, just like offensive coordination, Well what 198 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: does offensive assistant mean? Right? What is offensive consist together 199 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: or a guy who really contributes to the game plan? Absolutely, 200 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: So they can a big area between those two and 201 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna be throughout time. They're gonna be like 202 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: I'm in up in New England. Who's the general manager 203 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: of the New England Patriots? Yeah, Bill Belichick, everything exactly, 204 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: So it can it can vary, it can change. So 205 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: just because Tim Kelly has the offensive coordinator designation, if 206 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: that is indeed true, and hopefully because we've heard it 207 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: all throughout the week, we'd imagine it to be true. 208 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean he's gonna call plays. I mean that 209 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: he won't call plays. It's just how it's gonna be structured. 210 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: I know that Rico Rick Dennison did that for Gary Kubiak, 211 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: I think in thirteen. Yeah, he was another guy who 212 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 1: didn't really didn't call the plays. So people will say, well, 213 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: wait a second, why would you have an offensive coordinator? 214 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: But then the head coach calls the plays and the 215 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: game he read does that in Kansas City with Eric 216 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: bi Enemy, that offensive coordinator is there to structure the 217 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: game plan, to do all the things that the head 218 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: coach doesn't really have time to do, but comes up 219 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: with the game plan, watches all the film and obviously 220 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: Bill watches a ton of film, so that's that's never 221 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: a worry. But who watched all the film. He'll make 222 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: sure he's got the game plan ready to go. Tighten down, 223 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: these are the plays that we want to go. He's 224 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: handling all the position coaches, making sure that they're on 225 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: board with it, and then game day, the head coach 226 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: is gonna call the plays. Now, we've seen in Texans history, 227 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: we've seen where that's evolved, where the head coach Gary 228 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: Kubyack gave those play calling responsibilities to Kashan, and don't 229 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: think he took the wheel key time. I think so too. 230 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien gave that to George Gotzi the last couple 231 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: of years. Bill O'Brien's had it. Now we'll see how 232 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: it's gonna be going forward, whether Tim is gonna end 233 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: up calling the plays or not. But to that end, 234 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: I've I don't know. I think people get way out 235 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: of whacklick. Who's calling a place, who's not. I just 236 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: think you execute what you what you need to do. 237 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: You I don't care who calls him. Just execute what 238 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: you have to do and you'll be fine. I think 239 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: with Watson O'Brien's offense has we've seen it explode at times. 240 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: I know we've seen it struggle at times too, But 241 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: look at this, you just put up an outstanding season 242 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: of numbers relative to what you had the previous few years, 243 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: and that your best offensive season passing since two thy 244 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: twelve when with a loaded team in so many different phases. 245 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: So I think that the future is extremely encouraging here. 246 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: If he feels like he wants to add to the 247 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: offensive coaching mindset to the brain trust. If you will great, 248 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: you know, if he wants to get another contributor, great. 249 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: And I know that people have reacted in different ways. Well, 250 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: how do we know what he's gonna do? You just 251 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: don't know. You just don't know. These are one of 252 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: those This is one of those situations where you're just 253 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: gonna have to let it play out. And it doesn't 254 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: mean it can't work, doesn't mean it will work. You 255 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: just have to let it go. Well, I think to 256 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: that end, when Sean McVay took over in LA, what 257 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: was everybody thinking this guy, Yeah, this guy, this thirty 258 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: one year old is gonna come in and really this 259 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: guy right? And now it's like, now it's not only 260 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 1: if you've worked for him, but if you know him, 261 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: if you if you know him, exactly qualified. Boy. I 262 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: should have shaken his hands at the shaking his hand 263 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: at the owner's meeting last year. I would have been 264 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: an NFL head coaching candidate. Now I could say I 265 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: know Sean McVay and you know we actually had dinner 266 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: one night, like two tables over from him. I don't know. 267 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: I should have done it. I should have done it. 268 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: I could have said I know Sean, I know, Hey, 269 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: I know Matt Lafloora. Does that get me into the tree? No? Well, 270 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: one of the branches of just interesting that Sean McVay is. 271 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: I thought one of the one of the most interesting 272 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: things going to the Super Bowl because you dig up everything, 273 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: was that McVay actually played Juliet. Their school's played each 274 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: other in college. Ede is the quarterback that can't stay 275 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven and McVeigh was a wide 276 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: receiver from Minam of Ohio in two thousand and seven. 277 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: They played against one another, and there's McVey coaching against Edelman, who, 278 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: by the way, was fantastic. Okay, some Mid American Conference 279 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: action between the two. I was listening today. I was 280 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: listening today. I was I was flipping round the stations 281 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: Derek commercial and I flipped it over to NFL Radio 282 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: because I have it in my wife's car, and they 283 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 1: had Bill Belichick's live press conference. Now they cut it 284 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 1: off at some point, which I was a little disappointed with. 285 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: But he was asked a question about Julian Edelman, and 286 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: you know Belichick, there's certain things that Belichick can be 287 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: effusive about, like if you ask him about the Microsoft 288 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: Surface tablets and the history drills. Oh, he'll go on forever. 289 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: You started asking about who's injured, and you'll you'll get well, 290 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: wait for the injury report. He was asked about Julian 291 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,599 Speaker 1: Edelman and he actually I thought this was fascinating. He 292 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: he kind of started to talk and then he stopped 293 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: and he going and goes, look, I gotta be honest. 294 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: I gotta give a lot of credit to Rick Goslin 295 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: at Dallasmouring News. He was the guy who really kind 296 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: of turned me on. He's doing a lot of draft 297 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 1: stuff and he said, hey, you might like this guy, 298 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, because I don't think he's a quarterback, but 299 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: you might do something with him. Rick Goslin was the 300 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: guy who said he's a writer for the Dallasmorey News 301 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: and follows the draft more I mean he Bill O'Brien 302 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: was the first evaluators of Julian Edelman for the Patriots organization. 303 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: We have not acknowledged what went down last night with 304 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: the what was it thirteen to three? Right super Bowl 305 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: of all time? And that's incredible. You know, like wait 306 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: a minute, that Garrol you Premian game that was that 307 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: was more points than this really the ice Bolt. That 308 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: wasn't a super Bowl, that was an NFL championship game. 309 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: But you get my drift here. You have to go 310 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: way back and you can't find one that's lower score 311 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: than this. Now, I will say this, Yeah, from a 312 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: offensive fireworks standpoint, it was a boring game. But and 313 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: I'm not that old. Maybe I am, but I remember 314 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: these eighties blowouts. Oh well, I remember the early nineties 315 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: blowouts so well. I don't want to see that. I'd 316 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: rather see what I saw last night, where I'm trying 317 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: to figure out why can't these offenses move the football? Tonight? 318 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: At least the game was in doubt going into the 319 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. One play is gonna change everything. It was 320 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: just one of those games. And you know, the Rams 321 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: had a stinker night on offense, and the Patriots basically 322 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: did too until they went to that double tight end 323 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: thing and they spread everybody out. And you could talk 324 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: about that, but to me, I I'm not saying it 325 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: was edge of your seat thriller exciting. But it was 326 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: much more exciting than when I used to see when 327 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: I got all those blowouts. Because Johnny, there was a 328 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: time where we were begging for a close game in 329 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and could not get it. The one 330 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: outlier was the Montana to John Taylor the second matchup 331 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: between the Niners and the Bengals. That was a real 332 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 1: good close game, but everything else felt giants wide right. 333 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: That was one that was a good one too, But 334 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: like those two were like the little slices of meat 335 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: and a giant carb sandwich of bloated, in flated scores 336 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: that were horrible and I'd rather have what I saw 337 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: last night, Not that I want that on a regular basis. 338 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I'm with you. It's funny because 339 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: my wife made some commitions like the Super Bowl is 340 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: always a blow on. I was like, I think my 341 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: wife is remembering those eighties nineties games because recently they've 342 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: been really good ball. Seahawks Patriots game was phenomenal, like 343 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: every game with and that was their w was their 344 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: biggest margin with victory at points. There are a couple 345 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: of things that stood out. There was one thing that 346 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: I noticed and I up to my beef with Tony Romo, 347 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: and a second I was a little surprised that he 348 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: didn't notice this, but I noticed that in the second 349 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: half in particular. Now we talked with Bill O'Brien about 350 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: this a lot, and I figured I figured going the 351 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: second half that this was the case. I knew that 352 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: Jared goff had probably been struggling because in the second half, 353 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: in particular, if you go back and watch the RAMS, 354 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: he doesn't go doesn't even get in the huddle, but 355 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: he does it consistently. He doesn't get in the huddle 356 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: until fourteen seconds are on the play clock because he's 357 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: getting coached. Yes, he's getting mcvayh in his ear up 358 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: in the fifteen seconds, so you would see Goffs stand 359 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: outside the huddle, they're waiting the huddle, and then at 360 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: fourteen he would go in the huddle, get the play, 361 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: and they would go to the line. Now, I think 362 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: there are a couple things with that. I think they 363 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: didn't want to give the Patriots time to change plays. 364 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: And then I read today where the Patriots kind of 365 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: knew that was the case with McVay, so they were 366 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: they were very good with their disguises. They wanted to 367 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 1: make sure that they disguised things even more because they 368 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: knew that McVay would be in his ear. But then McVeagh, 369 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: they took the stance of Hey, I'm gonna talk to 370 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: you all the way to fifteen seconds cuts off. Then 371 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: you go ahead in the huddle, and if you go 372 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 1: back and watch the game, you'll see it. You'll see 373 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 1: the Rams drives, You'll see him standing around the huddle, 374 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: and then at about fourteen seconds he gets in the 375 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: huddle and call the place. Because there were times where 376 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, let's go, guys, let's go. Yeah, and then 377 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: I noticed he's and then I looked at the play 378 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: clock and I was likeeen seconds is to cut off. 379 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: And knowing how much that McVeigh talks to him, I 380 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: knew what they were doing, and so I thought, okay, 381 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: they try to throw the Patriots off a little bit. 382 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: I just felt like that's too much and I don't 383 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: know too much talking to Goff, not allowing him right, 384 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: everything's shopping. Absolutely, yeah, absolutely, I thought that was that 385 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: was a big That was a big thing. Now to 386 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: my beef with Romo. First of all, he didn't he 387 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: didn't notice that, and I thought that would have been 388 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: a pretty interesting thing for viewers to even just say, hey, 389 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: look the Rams, just to even mention that. So he 390 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: didn't mention that. Here's the other thing. Every time that 391 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: the Patriot the Pictures defense was unbelievable. Eight straight punts, Yes, 392 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: eight straight punts against that offense. I mean, boy, genius coach. 393 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: How many Pro bowlers are on that that new England defense? Gilmore? 394 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: And that's I mean high tower probably should be. But 395 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, van Noy was excellent. It's not yeah Van. 396 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 1: I mean, they go from Nikovic to van Noy and 397 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: it's like they're the same guy. It's the same guy. 398 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 1: It's the same guy. And I love Vanoy coming out. 399 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 1: I hate them. I mean, it's ridiculous. But here's the 400 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: other thing. Yeah, every time that the Patriots defense was 401 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: brought up, Yeah, you know who has never talked about 402 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: you know who. Romo never said at any one point 403 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: about Brian Flores the defense. He's not the defensive coordinator. 404 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: He's the play caller. And I bring this up because 405 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: Dolphins were happy last night, maybe not that the Patriots won, 406 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: but that they're getting Flores after that performance. Right, because 407 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: you and I both know, because we've had discussions how 408 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: this thing works. And I knew in two thousand and 409 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: nine because I you know, Bill was with the Patriots. 410 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: Bill was not the offensive coordinated for the Patriots be 411 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: called every play. He didn't have the offensive coordinator title, 412 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: but he was the play caller. And I asked Bill, 413 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: I said, at the time, I asked him, how does 414 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: that work? And he said, Look, during the week, Bill 415 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: puts up what he thinks are the keys to the game. 416 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: He talks about it, and then we go off put 417 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: the game plan together, and I call it and he 418 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: stays away from me on game day and lets me. 419 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: You know, he'll come in and suggest some certain things. 420 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: But I guarantee you that's how it worked for Brian 421 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: Flores too, and it's worked for every coordinator. And I 422 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: bet Romeo would tell you the same thing that during 423 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: the week there are things that I'm sure that Bill 424 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: wanted to see. These are the things that he thought 425 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: were the keys to the game. And then Brian and 426 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: his defensive staff, Brian Flores, were gonna go and execute that, yep. 427 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: And they did. And it's funny because the NFL writers 428 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: that wrote about it after the game, Bucky Brooks mentioned it, 429 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: Charles Robson wrote about it, Albert Albert Brier wrote about it. 430 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: They all wrote about it. Romo didn't talk about Romo 431 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: mentioned Belichick all night He's like, Belichick's been waiting to 432 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: use that blitz. Yet when they talk to the players afterwards, 433 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: they were like Brian Flores was sitting on that blitz 434 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: for a while. It was it was Flores who was 435 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: the one. He's calling those things. Belichick credit because he 436 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: oversees everything. Absolutely, Flores making those timely calls, you have 437 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: to give him credit if you're the announcer in a 438 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: Super Bowl broadcast. Now that I thought they not mocked 439 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: the low scoring element in nature of the game, I 440 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: think you have to address it for sure. But at 441 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 1: times I was like, guys, it's the super Bowl, all right, 442 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: and it's all. They came out of a break once. 443 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: It was in the fourth quarter. Maybe it was the 444 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: fourth quarter start, and you know, I'm again, I apologize. 445 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: I'm watching the super Bowl. People are around. I always 446 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: try to sequester myself as much as possible. It never 447 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: works out. I got kids, I got I got people around, 448 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: and I can't fully focus. But they came out of 449 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: a break once and they said, hey, it's the super 450 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: Bowl and it's a time game. It was three three, 451 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: I guess the fourth quarter, and they kind of reset themselves. 452 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: I almost felt like they got a memo through their 453 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: ears saying, hey, guys, come on, it's the super Bowl. 454 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: Let's go. Well. I think at one point Romo made 455 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: a comment about people turning off the super Bowl, like 456 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: I want to say that at some point, Like we 457 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: just said earlier, it's a three three game. I know 458 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: it stinks as far as offensive showcase, but it's a 459 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: close game. I know. I'm with you. I just I'm 460 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: playing a game of telephone on that one because I 461 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: saw that somewhere. I didn't exactly hear that, but I 462 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,959 Speaker 1: got that vibe. I got that vibe that because it 463 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: wasn't fifty four fifty one rams chiefs that how people 464 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: complain about that. People complain about this. People just love 465 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: to complain. We should not be surprised about complains. You'd 466 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: be interesting to talk to you about this, Tyrann Matthew. 467 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: And the reason I bring that up is when he 468 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 1: was at at LSU, they played that one versus two 469 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: matchup in twenty eleven that was nine to six. Remember 470 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: that it was not the field goals. Yeah, but I 471 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: guarantee you that was one of them. I mean, I 472 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: loved it because hard hitting and physical and everything that 473 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: went with that game. That was what last night was. 474 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 1: It was a chess match, so he might have said, 475 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: we have to we have to find this out. Like 476 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: I don't want people thinking that he's pushing people to 477 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: watch the Marvelous Missus Maizelle instead of the fourth quarter 478 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: of the super Bow. But I think he was probably Listen, 479 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 1: if you're Tony Romo, you think about it. You never 480 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: made a Stuper Bowls a player. I mean, how geeked 481 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: are you to be calling that game? I mean think 482 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: about how it's huge. I mean coming off now, his 483 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: AFC Championship game performance was as legendary. And look, I'm 484 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: not saying that he was not. I mean I thought 485 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: he was. I thought he was good. I just had 486 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: I had it stuck in my craw about that because 487 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: to me, going in, if I'm an analyst of the game, 488 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: and I don't even know who to give credit to. Look, 489 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: if you don't give credit to Bill Belichick, as you said, 490 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: for the overarching wow, the plans that they put together 491 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: on offense and defense, that's fine. As a buddy of 492 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: mine said, which I thought was interesting, he said, mcveigh's 493 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: not gonna get any credit for how the Rams defense 494 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: played Yeah, because that's Wade. That's that's wades deal, you know. 495 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: And Belichick's the head coach. But you can bet that 496 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: McVeigh as an opinion on how things should go or 497 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,360 Speaker 1: could go. And in the fourth quarter when the Patriots 498 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 1: offense got it together, who's gonna get the credit for that? Belichick? No, 499 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: But McDaniels was getting the credit, Like Romo was talking 500 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: about McDaniels. But it's like, why would you not give 501 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: Brian Flores any of that? I just thought that was 502 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: a little I thought it was not disingenuous. I just 503 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: thought it was it was an air was a mistake. 504 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: It's funny. Yeah, Flores with the masterpiece called last Night. Yeah, 505 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: McDaniels gets the credit for the adjustment that got them 506 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: to touchdowns drive And that is really interesting. Now I 507 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: thought about this, Remember I told you Charlie casually once 508 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: said there's nothing worse than losing the Super Bowl, which 509 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: I've never been there. I mean, I've been there, but 510 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 1: I've never been there with the Houston Texans. Not that 511 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: I'd like to try, but I'd rather lose there than 512 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: losing the first round of the playoffs. So you know, 513 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: if that's gonna happen. It's gonna happen. I'll deal with it. Yeah, 514 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: I just want to go, you know, I want to go. 515 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: I want to experience it. I think losing a championship 516 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: game would actually be worse than losing the super Bowl 517 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: because at least you went to the super Bowl, you 518 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: were a participant in the Super Bowl. But it doesn't 519 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: make the Rams feel any better today. It's gotta just 520 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: smart smart. When am I using a nineteen fifties staying, 521 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: it's got a son, it hurts. Okay, that'll be more 522 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: of a nineties word. There we go. I mean, because 523 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, going to this game, you're after what Sean 524 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: mcvah had done with the Rams and what they had 525 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: done against New Orleans. Look, I mean, guy, you mentioned 526 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: it throughout the show. There have been coaches connected to 527 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: Sean McVay that they've gotten head coaching jobs that I 528 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe they jumped the line a little bit 529 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 1: because they were in the mcvay's system along with Sean McVay. Mcshan. 530 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: Sean McVay was maybe not to toast the town, but 531 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: when you're one of the final two coaches heading the 532 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: Super Bowl week and you've got two weeks to talk 533 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: about it. You're gonna be thought of very, very highly. Yep, 534 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,239 Speaker 1: fast forward to today. Sean McVay didn't do anything right. 535 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 1: He even said after the game he was as honest 536 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: as I've ever seen any coach. He was like, I 537 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: was clearly outcoached. Well, I agree, I agree, And look, 538 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,959 Speaker 1: he's a hell of a coach and the Rams are 539 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: obviously lucky to have him. He's tremendous. He's done really 540 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 1: well his first couple of years. He's got to a 541 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: super Bowl at his second year, went made the playoffs 542 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: his first year. Jared Goff looks pretty good. But you know, 543 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: maybe there's some doubt about him. I don't know. Yeah, 544 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 1: I really don't know. That was not a great performance 545 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: at all. I know he was under pressure, under duress. 546 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: He'll probably do better next time. Who knows what Sean 547 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: McVay is privately thinking about his quarterback. But I mean, 548 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: obviously tremendous first two years for him. It was just 549 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: shocking to see him held to three. And here's the 550 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: other thing. I'm Wade Phillips. So the Oracle. He visits 551 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: with the oracle before the game of the Oracle says, 552 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: all right, the Patriots will get thirteen points. Will you 553 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: take that? I mean, you'll take it every single day 554 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 1: of the year. And twenty whatever, I mean you would take. 555 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: What give me a number that he would happily take? 556 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: Twenty one? Sure, I'll take twenty one. They get twenty 557 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: one a twenty one. What do we always say when 558 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: you play the Patriots twenty one to twenty four, You 559 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 1: gotta score finimm twenty eight to thirty to beat them. 560 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: You just have to count on it, especially in their plays, 561 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: no doubt. But anytime it's the freaking Patriots. So to me, 562 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: I thought it was a tremendous defensive performance by the Rams. Now, 563 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: I know they gave up that touchdown drive in the 564 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: fourth quarter that proved to be decisive, But the Rams 565 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: came down the field that Goff throws the pick under pressure, backfoot, 566 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. He should have thrown 567 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: it away with second and ten, Johnny. That's what killed 568 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: me about that. It wasn't fourth and ten and I 569 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: gotta do something here. It was second and ten. You 570 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: gotta figure something better to do with the ball, No doubt. 571 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: It's a great call by Flores, and essentially it was 572 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: I think it's I saw it. Some people call it 573 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: a trailer blitz, and that that makes some sense. Basically, 574 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: it's two defensive backs that are coming in. The second 575 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: one trails the first one, so it's like a screen 576 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: in basketball. The first the first defensive back blitzer is 577 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: going to get the running back and so you essentially 578 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: take the running back out of the player. Right then 579 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: the second one trails behind, and he's the one that 580 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: got in Golf's face. And then Golf didn't step into 581 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: his throw. He short stepped it and ste fun. Gilmore 582 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 1: stood after the game, He's like, he's throwing this right 583 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: now to me, like, all right, I gotta go up 584 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: and if he puts, if he's able to put four 585 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: or five more yards on it, Gilmore's probably there. Yeah, 586 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: but it's a contested cat, I mean attempted catch. I 587 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 1: should Cooks has an opportunity at that point. Now, Cooks 588 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: should have caught the one thrown to him the play prior, 589 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: and you know, and and he missed. Cooks in the 590 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: end zone wide open when the Patriots did blow cover. 591 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: That's the thing. Advantage when they screw up, you gotta 592 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: take advantage. If you don't, you're dead. Because they're not 593 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: gonna do it more often than once. And when you 594 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,880 Speaker 1: screw up, you know exactly what's gonna happen. Johnny looking 595 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: at the Patriots this year, and I know we're all 596 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: kind of all over the place. I find it. We 597 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: should never find it hard to believe when they're able 598 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: to win the championship, but this year it looked a 599 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: little shaky at times for them, you know, it really did. 600 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: And the fact that they were able to rise up 601 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: and do it. You know, Brady, to me, he doesn't 602 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: throw the ball. The ball doesn't look as pretty coming 603 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: out as it ever has, but he's just so smart 604 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: he knows what to do with it. But look at 605 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: their offensive talent. Seriously, I know Gronk is Gronk, but 606 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: he's not Ronk right now with that injury. Just doesn't 607 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,719 Speaker 1: look like himself. You put any other quarterback in well 608 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: almost any other quarterback in there, it's not gonna be 609 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: as good. He's just the mastermind. Gronk became Gronk when 610 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: he needed it. It was almost it was all, I mean, 611 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: a few catches, you know how that kind of goes 612 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: when you play you know, YMCA basketball, and there's kind 613 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: of the little bit, that older guy over in the corner, 614 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 1: and it's like you look at him and you're like, 615 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: I think he can play, and he kind of lining 616 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: in the weeds a little bit. And then the game 617 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: gets late and it's like, all right, he's gonna pick 618 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: up big rebounds, big putbacks. And that's and that's really 619 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: what Gronk did. Yeah, he really was not fully healthy 620 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 1: throughout the year. I thought about this before the game. 621 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: They were there was a there was a highlight show 622 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: called Road the Super Bowls. I thought it was very, 623 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: very good, and they were showing highlights of the Ravens 624 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: Chiefs game and I've got I'm going somewhere with this. 625 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 1: And on a fourth and nine play, Mahomes is like 626 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: scrambled to get away from like Zadarius Smith and Sizzle 627 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: and he's trying to get away from both them and 628 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: he throws the ball back across his body and fourth 629 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: and nine, Yeah, yeah, Tyreek goes and catches the ball. 630 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: They're able to tie it and go in the game 631 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: and overtime. Well I thought about this, Wait a second, 632 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: what if he doesn't make that throw And that's a 633 00:29:56,040 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: that's a Mahome special. I mean that's a b. If 634 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 1: he doesn't make that throw, then the Chiefs are eleven 635 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: and five. Okay, so then the Chargers win a division. 636 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: Right then that changes things. So what if the Charges 637 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: had lost another game all along the lines, Well, the 638 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: Chiefs will have been eleven and five, the Patriots would 639 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: eleven five, the Texas would have been eleven and five, 640 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: and the Texans would have gotten in the Texas. The 641 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: Patriots would have gotten the two buy positions. Right, So 642 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: that changes things. If Mahomes doesn't complete that pass, it 643 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: changes things. If somehow they're gonna stop the Texas is 644 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: gonna stop against Eagles, that changes things because now the 645 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: Patriots they gotta go on the road. And I don't 646 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: know that the Patriots constructed as they were, we're going 647 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: to win at home and then go win on the 648 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: road twice and then win the Super They got that. 649 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: They've never done that. The bye got them. Well that, yeah, 650 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: you're right, this is so important man, as far as 651 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: the Texans go. A stop against Philadelphia is really what 652 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: separates you. Now, how about this one? How about a 653 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: stop against the Colts the regular season one here when 654 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: you lose twenty four twenty one, how about getting a 655 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: stop there and you get the ball back. Now, a 656 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: lot of different things have to happen, but they were 657 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: getting the offense going in the second half. And we 658 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: haven't even addressed the playoff game. You know, obviously we 659 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: were on the air after the playoffs. But I look 660 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: back on that as just such a bad day and 661 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: it was interesting to see the Rams have a bad 662 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: day on offense, and I'm thinking they're having a bad day. 663 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: We had a bad day too here at NRG Stadium. 664 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: And you know, it doesn't excuse anything. You pick the 665 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: worst time ever to have a bad day in the postseason. 666 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: When you do it obviously kills you and it's going 667 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: to leave a horrible taste in your mouth. So I 668 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: have a theory, and look, this is this is not 669 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: to excuse anything whatsoever. But I was at the Senior 670 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: Bowl and I ended up watching some old line d 671 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: line stuff, some inside drill stuff, and Chris Ballard was there, 672 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: and so you know, I've known Chris. You know, our 673 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: buddy Lanser a line. You know, he's known Chris for 674 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: a long time. And I met Chris back in nineteen 675 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: ninety three. Long story, so we've known each other for 676 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: a while. So we watched we watched practice, and in 677 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: between plays we would talk about the AFC South, we 678 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: talk about different things, and so I asked him a 679 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: little bit about that game for the Colts in Kansas City. 680 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: He's like, ah, you know, Johnny, we just he just 681 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: ran out of gas. And I got to thinking about 682 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: that what he said. And it really wasn't an excuse 683 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: really the way that he said it. But I got 684 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: to thinking about that because the one, what's the one, 685 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,239 Speaker 1: what's the one common thread between both the Texans and 686 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: the Colts, especially from Game four this year, Well, they 687 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: came back from big deficits right in and there was 688 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: no margins. There was no margin for air. There was 689 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: none in so every single game there was not. Look 690 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,719 Speaker 1: at the Patriots. The Patriots blew that one in Miami 691 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: and lost to Pittsburgh the next week, and they're like, man, 692 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: we just beat the Bills in Texas, or the Bills 693 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: and the Jets, and we're fine, And they were. There's 694 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: a margin for air built in for them in the 695 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: AFC East. I'll give him that much. But there was 696 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: no margin for air for the Texans after going oh 697 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: in three none. I mean, especially the way the Colts 698 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: started to play right, and then the Colts knew, hey, 699 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: one in five, they're just at one in five. They're 700 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: just playing to like they're better. They're just playing to 701 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: get better, right, And then all of a sudden they 702 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: started stacking a few wins and now they're in this thing. 703 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: But from that point forward, it was a playoff football 704 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: from the time, not even before the time they played US. 705 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: But if you think about the games the Colts played, 706 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: they played US and beat us. Then next week they're 707 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: trailing the Giants, they come back and win that game. 708 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: They were trailing the Dolphins by ten, they come back 709 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: to win that game. They played at that kind of 710 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: playoff level at for a long period of time, and 711 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: then at some point it's gonna bottom out. You're just 712 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: gonna run out of gas. And I tend to think 713 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: that's what happened to the Texans. They played twelve games 714 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: or more that were just you want to get back 715 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: in this thing. You and the Texans were always thinking 716 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: about the playoffs, even at oh and three. Nobody else was, 717 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: but I know they were, because that was a group 718 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: that thought they should go. I think they just eventually 719 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: because I watching that game back and watching him again. 720 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 1: It wasn't as if they didn't have energy, wasn't as 721 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: if the crowd wasn't into it. I just think they 722 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: honestly ran out of gas on that day. Deandre's banged 723 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: up in that that slowed the offense down. The biggest 724 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 1: factor to me, I just find it, man, come up 725 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: one with one thing. It was DeAndre Hopkins was huge, 726 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: unable to move the way he normally moves, and he's 727 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 1: gonna give it his all. He's gonna play hurd you know, 728 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 1: he's gonna play on one leg if he can. But 729 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: a few of those passes that Watson sailed over to Hopkins, 730 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: he just wasn't able to win that wrestling match the 731 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: way he normally is. And maybe the passes shouldn't have 732 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: been thrown because he's unable to do it. But you 733 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: have no will Fuller, you haven't had him for a while. 734 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: You had que Tea back, which was great. He had 735 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: how many catches in the playoff game? Eleven and eleven? 736 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: He hit eleven the first game against the Colts, And 737 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, the culture just trying to take Hopkins away 738 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: the best they can, and they just they're so young 739 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 1: and they they'll be back, they'll be better. But everything 740 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: you said about the Colts, I agree. They're running out 741 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 1: of gas. Thing, however you want to describe it, at 742 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: some point it runs out for everybody. It ran half 743 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: of the Rams yesterday in the Super Bowl. But the 744 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: thing is they The sad thing is it happened against 745 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: the Colts in your own building and it's the Cults. 746 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: So to me, it just adds more fuel to my 747 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: Colts hatred. And this I'll call it a rivalry, but 748 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 1: whatever it is, this series with the Colts in which 749 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: they've just devastated you on the football field by and large, 750 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: although the Texans three to two in their last five 751 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: up there, Yeah, yeah, I gotta say this now. So 752 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: the schedules out obviously in terms of opponents, not dates 753 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: right now. Other Texans are going to London to play 754 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,959 Speaker 1: the Jaguars. That's cool. They've got some travel. They're gonna 755 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: go to LA to play the Chargers, all right, So 756 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: they're gonna go London and West Coast. I just think 757 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: that when I look at that schedule, and who knows 758 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: how these teams really look by the time you face them. 759 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: They're going to Kansas City. That's gonna be tough and 760 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: going to face with Drew Brees and the Superdome. Ouch. 761 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: I just think somehow they split with the Colts at 762 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 1: the very League. I just think so. I just think 763 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen. This is a hotly contested affair with 764 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: two really good quarterbacks. They're gonna find a way to 765 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: split with them and just see what happens with the 766 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: other matchups. Unless Jakobe Brissette plays the Texans, Yeah, and 767 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: then they're dead, toast toasted. He plays out of retirement there, Dad, 768 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: and you know, they just haven't them beaten Bresent yet. 769 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: It's I just find it interesting that the Texans have 770 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: been winning up there and the Colts have been winning 771 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: down here. I don't I don't know if saying it's strange, 772 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: it's weird that way, but I just felt like, you know, this, 773 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 1: this would be an interesting offseason to see, you know, 774 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: how analysts look at this particular division. And it's funny. 775 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 1: He's talking to Chris. He was like, Artivision's good, it's 776 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: really really good. I was like, yeah, I know, tell 777 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 1: me about it. I mean three teams with more I'm glad. 778 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: I mean, well, he works in this building. He knows this, 779 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: this AFC South's fictional building. I've discussed how about this 780 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: the guys on this triple threat. We're talking about the 781 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: Bill Barnwell article with over under amounts for wins for 782 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: next year, and the Texans were at nine and they 783 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: were talking about, well, it's a two games less than 784 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 1: they won in twenty eighteen and all this other stuff 785 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:55,959 Speaker 1: that I thought, Well, let me see how he rates 786 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: the other teams over under numbers. Colts eight and a half, 787 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: Titans a and a half, Jaguars six and a half. 788 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,919 Speaker 1: So I texted Shawnee. I said, oh, so you're saying 789 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: Barnwell says the Texans of the AFC South favorites, which 790 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,800 Speaker 1: I found a little surprising based on what just happened 791 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: in the postseason here against the Colts. I think a 792 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: lot of people are gonna pick the Cults. But a 793 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: lot of that has to do with who you're gonna 794 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 1: get in free agency and who you're gonna draft and 795 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 1: all of that other stuff. And is there somebody you're 796 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: gonna lose in free agency who might be really valuable 797 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: to you. Yeah? No yet absolutely. One other aspect of 798 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,439 Speaker 1: it is Indianapolis. This is where this is where Chris 799 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: Bowder is a GM and having one hundred million dollars 800 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: a cap room may not ultimately helped them, because the 801 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: best thing that Ballard did last year was he went 802 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: found Denico Autry and went and got appeared to see 803 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: her again and Eric Ebron. Ibron was on a trash heap, Yeah, 804 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: eb and goes to the Pro Bowl. I mean, Ibron 805 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 1: was like that copy of I Don't Know the Replacements 806 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: that ends up, you know, somewhere in the Walmart bargain 807 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: basement being for like two bucks, and You're like, I'll 808 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: take that for two bucks. And then it turned into 809 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: you know, like I don't know the best football movie 810 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: you've ever seen, that was the Ebron last year. So 811 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: maybe Ballard should pull a Sashi because you said the 812 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: best thing he did was find those guys. The best 813 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: thing he did was draft because Quentin Nelson and Darius 814 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 1: Leonard both go not Pro Bowl, All Pro, a Pro, 815 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: All Pro, All Pro and then Smith is starting at 816 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,800 Speaker 1: right tackle. Was funny because I brought that up with 817 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 1: him and he was like, we were kind of we're 818 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: watching some guys in the offensive line trying to figure 819 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: out guard tackle and We're like, when do you think 820 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: guard tackles? No, No, he's a guard. And we'd say, oh, 821 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: he's a guard, and then uh, Lance brought up Braden 822 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: Smith from Aubrey. He's like, yeah, well he goes. That 823 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: guy turned into pretty good tackle for you. He goes, yeah, 824 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: he goes. But I thought he was a guard too. 825 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: So sometimes you get lucky those times you get lucky. 826 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes you get looked there was a guard and moved 827 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: on to tackle because they their guys at tackle were terrible. 828 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: Texans think Rankin's and guard right, probably, I think so, yeah, 829 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: Martinis a guard and we'll see how they handle the 830 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: tackle situation in the draft and free agency. But I'm 831 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: really looking forward to see what Brian Gaine does in 832 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: the first two rounds. When you have three picks in 833 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: the first two rounds and you had none last year, 834 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: and the draft looked pretty dark good. The draft looked 835 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: pretty darn good for the Texans without a first and 836 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: second rounder. Now give me these picks on top of 837 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: whatever else you get. And those players contributed. You know, 838 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 1: nobody made All Pro, but Justin Reid is on his 839 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,479 Speaker 1: way to be in a really really solid Pro Bowl 840 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 1: caliber safety in this league, and then let's see how 841 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: the tight ends develop. Let's see how rankin develops. This 842 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: is gonna be good. Duke edge of four will be 843 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: used more. They started to use them more at the 844 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 1: end of the year. I like it when you have 845 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: promising rookies going into year two and you have all 846 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: that combined pre draft stuff, post draft stuff out of 847 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 1: the way. Now they can be pros in the offseason 848 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: and get ready for their sophomore year. Yeah, no doubt. 849 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 1: And I think we've talked about it. And then everybody 850 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,839 Speaker 1: knows the Texas are gonna be looking an offensive line, 851 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: probably tackles, and then at corners, and this is this 852 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: and going to the senior boy, I could see some 853 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: of those senior I saw some of those senior tackles 854 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: and they're there's some pretty good players. It's a good 855 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: depth position. I think corners a pretty good depth position, 856 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:06,400 Speaker 1: too good. So I think they'll be able to find 857 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: players at the bottom of the first round and the 858 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: bottom of the second round, because I think their two 859 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: second round picks are within a pick of each other. 860 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: Maybe I think a pick or two in the second round, 861 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: there's like one of fifty three one fifty five something 862 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: like that. So they're picking pretty close in that way. 863 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: But look, they've got three picks in the top fifty 864 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: five and they got four picks in the top eighty something. 865 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: They're close because of the Seattle pick, and Seattle did 866 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 1: pretty well. You would prefer ale, So you get a 867 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: high second rounder, Johnny quickly, you got sixty seconds, Romo. 868 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,799 Speaker 1: You like the predictions on the big plays only? Please? Yeah? 869 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,919 Speaker 1: I mean if it's a third down player or it's 870 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 1: a got to have it play, And if you have 871 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: a good field for the game, you know what's a 872 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: got to have it play? Yeah, then I'm then I'm 873 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: fine with it. I mean, look, if you're predicting a 874 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 1: first and ten, I don't really put much stock in it. 875 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 1: But I thought, I thought what Romo did NFC Championship game. 876 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: I thought I was brilliant because he chose the right moment. Yeah, 877 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: third and ten right exactly. Those are fine. But it's like, hey, 878 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: it's the second six, They're just gonna on the ball 879 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: the right side like nobody. I don't care, But as 880 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: an interested observer, I want to know a third and ten, 881 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 1: what are they thinking? And Tony's kind of in their helmet, 882 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: like telling you what's going on. I like that. I 883 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: don't have a problem with that. But predicting place, We've 884 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 1: all been doing that for a long time. We've all 885 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: been doing it for a long time. He's just getting 886 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: a lot of credit for it now because he was 887 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 1: pretty successful, especially against in the Chiefs game. He is 888 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: a good listen, and it's you know, it's an honor 889 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: to have people complain about you on nationally telling out 890 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: all right, so well usually let's just put it that way. 891 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: I can imagine some instances where it might not be. 892 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,320 Speaker 1: That's gonna do it for Show one of twenty nineteen. 893 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: We'll be back tomorrow at six o'clock. Don't forget Texans 894 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: Buzz Saturday nights eleven o'clock on ABC thirteen. Have a 895 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: great night, everyone, and go tex Sans.
