Sorry, you're you're 27 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: a different tier than me. But you'll be on the field. 28 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: It'll be kind of like a broadcast position, you know. 29 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: And I figure I can invite anybody up there, you know, 30 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: I'll have the whole family. I'll have like distant cousins 31 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: up now. I really won't and they could be socially distanced. 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: That thing is that big. I'll tell you what I 33 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: was getting massive. I was getting Greenbrier flashbacks looking at 34 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: that thing today over look into practice field. So yeah, 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: I'll tweet out a picture of its prom the latest 36 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: picture of it. The Vander Bryant Tower, named in honor 37 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: of Bear Bryant's Tower. It's gonna be cool. We'll be 38 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: able to do our shows from up there. And look, 39 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: I was there today and there were guys on the 40 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: field conditioning. You know, they're doing conditioning. They they're weightlifting, 41 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: they're doing it in waves. You know, they do it 42 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: in platoons because they don't want to get all eighty 43 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: ninety guys, well eighty guys together. So that's how they're 44 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: handling their business right now, which is smart. And so far, 45 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: I have not seen a positive right, no reported positives 46 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: out of the Houston Texans camp. I have not seen any. 47 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: I don't know that I've seen the transaction listing for today. 48 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: I do know that there were two positives of two quarterbacks. 49 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that later, but not Texans. But no 50 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: Texans two quarterbacks. The Texans are due to face in 51 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: three of the sixteen games, and a head coach. Now. 52 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: I heard Sean of Seth say this morning, Oh, he's 53 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: the first head coach quite Sean Payton. Sean Payton. Sean 54 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: Payton had the COVID back. He had it early. I 55 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: think like April, maybe there was a there. It ran 56 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: rampant in New Orleans in around late March or early April, 57 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: sometime probably two three weeks after Marty Graw and that's 58 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: when New Orleans got hit really really hard with it. 59 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: And I not to say that Sean Payton went out 60 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: to Mardy Graw, but that I just remember the timing 61 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 1: of that, and so he got over it and has 62 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: been back at work, and hopefully Doug Peterson will do 63 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: the same. He's asymptomatic. We'll talk about the COVID part 64 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: of this. I wanted to keep the first two sections 65 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: or two segments of the show not talking about COVID, 66 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: not talking about it at least until the third segment, 67 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: because it does impact on the field potentially, and that's 68 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: gonna be down the road a little bit because the 69 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: Texans won't play the two teams where the quarterbacks are 70 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: impacted until I think late October, if I remember correctly. 71 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that later. But we have got 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: plenty to get to. In our next segment, we will 73 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: do some over unders and Mark, I've been working on 74 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: these for a little while. I got a few. I 75 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: think I've got a few good ones for you. You're 76 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to do a little math, and you're gonna 77 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: have to project and forecast a little bit, but I 78 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: think I've got some good ones for you. Try to 79 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: get I tried to be a little different than what 80 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: we've had before, so hopefully you like the over unders 81 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: that I will be putting in front of you. But Mark, 82 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: we have the opportunity this weekend on a Saturday, after 83 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: I got tested for the nineteen thousandth day in a row, 84 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: I was able to come back and we had the 85 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: opportunity to listen to both Deshaun Watson and JJ Watt 86 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: pressers with the Houston media, and I think there was 87 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: probably some national media on the call as well. So Mark, 88 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: whenever that happens. You know what we like to do, 89 00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Texans Audio jukebox. Oh yeah, So let's go. Okay, gonna 90 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: start with obviously the one you heard the promo before 91 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: the show started about the Shawn Watson's contract. Here is 92 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: the Shawn talking about Patrick Mahomes contract, which was signed 93 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago. Ten years, five hundred million dollars 94 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: five or three million, half a billion, et cetera. You'd 95 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: have a little deeper into it. It's maybe not quite 96 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: just that, but I think Pats gonna make all that 97 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: money either way. DeShawn was asked and we knew this 98 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: was going to happen. We's here to Shawn talk about 99 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: what happened for Patrick Mahomes, his friendly competitor. Man. It 100 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 1: was awesome. It was awesome for him to be able 101 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: to you know, achieve you know, something so big and 102 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: get what he deserved. M I actually test him that 103 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: day when he when the news came out, and he 104 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: tests right back. You know. The friendship and the fun 105 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: that we have is has been you know great ever 106 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: since you know, high school, from the lead eleven to 107 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: college all that, all that so um, you know that 108 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: that was definitely dope. And you know, my representation and 109 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: the organization has definitely been talking. But you know, timing 110 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: is everything. Right now, I'm just focused on football and 111 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: on my team and building this chemistry and building this 112 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: offense and you know, getting everyone, you know, making sure 113 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: we stand safe, but at the same time, trying to 114 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: speed up the process to getting on the same page, 115 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, so we can be ready for Settember ten. 116 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: So that's my main focus. You know, I have an 117 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: agent that's going to you know, take care of that, 118 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: but that's not my main focus right now. My main 119 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 1: focus is standing healthy and making sure this team is 120 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: ready to play. I like to see the focus obviously, 121 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: and I know that's got to be hard. Mark to 122 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: your I mean, you see you see Patrick Mahomes half 123 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: a billion dollars and obviously you can read into the 124 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: contract whatever it is. But when you see that number 125 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: of what the contract could be and what it more 126 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: than likely is going to be for Patrick Mahomes for 127 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: the next what twelve years, I can imagine you're sitting 128 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: there going, oh my gosh, I'm holding a lottery ticket. Basically, 129 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: it's just a matter of when New Eye cash that 130 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: thing in. And oh, by the way, I've also got 131 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: to try and navigate the new football season, of which 132 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: I am the face of the franchise. There's a lot 133 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: going on on his plate. Mark, there's no question about it. 134 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: But the one of their aspects that took out of 135 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: that is these two will be compared because they were 136 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: in the same draft and because they're in the same conference. 137 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: So they're now going to be meeting up in regular 138 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,119 Speaker 1: season and hopefully in the playoffs. There'll be two times 139 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: a year. It's not quite obviously at the Brady Manning 140 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: status in stage, but it is gonna be fun to 141 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: see these two go at it for a while. Throw 142 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson in there, and all of a sudden you've 143 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: got a kind of round robin with the three top 144 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks three of the top quarterbacks in the league going 145 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: out one another. It's gonna be kind of fun. What 146 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: do you think about what he had to say about 147 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: Patrick's contract? Well, look, he's happy for him, obviously. I 148 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: think with the contracts there's a different style, maybe that 149 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: Watson has reportedly been looking for a style of deal, 150 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: maybe shorter. The Texas are in a different cap situation. 151 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: Maybe they can do more upfront. Maybe they don't want to, 152 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't want it. Maybe who knows. I mean 153 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: the negotiations, you don't know what people are saying behind 154 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,239 Speaker 1: closed doors. And I think that clearly he is happy 155 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: for Patrick Mahomes. How can he not be because it 156 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: only inflates your value. Everybody in the league should have 157 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: said thank you so much. Patrick. Now, some agents criticized 158 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: it because they thought he didn't get enough up front. 159 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: The guarantee is too low for what the total deal is. 160 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: Even the guarantee of mahomes deal is a report of 161 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty million dollars, but a lot of 162 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: people think that's not a high enough percentage of the 163 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: entire deal. Whatever it is, Look, Watson's gonna get signed 164 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: at some point, could be in ten minutes. Could be 165 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: next year. We don't know, and we hope it's soon 166 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: because you want to have that certainty that he's going 167 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: to be here. I mean, I feel very certain and confident. 168 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: I was actually a little more worried, for lack of 169 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 1: a better word, about Larrymie's deal than Deshaun Watson getting 170 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: a deal or that even coming to fruition. And you 171 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: know clearly that was unfounded. I mean, Laramie's here for 172 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: a long time, and let's get Watson here for a 173 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 1: long time. Here's Deshan on the urgency of getting the 174 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 1: deal done. Like I said, the football is my main focus. 175 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: My agent knows the time, the time limit and things 176 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: like that. My biggest thing, like I've always been wanting 177 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: to do since I was a little kid who just 178 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: played football, win championship, winning games and compete. So like 179 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: I said before that my agent is taking care of 180 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: that and that's you know, with them, with him in 181 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: the organization, like you said, Like I said, my main 182 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: focus is being the quarterback and the leader of this 183 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: team and making sure we're ready for September ten. You 184 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: take care of the process, the results will come your way. 185 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what you just said there, and that 186 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: is I focus on football. I focus on winning games 187 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: and championships and leading this team. Those are the things 188 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: he can control. The rest will take care of itself 189 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: because he'll put up yards, he'll put up stats, he'll 190 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: put up win, he'll put a playoff wins and potentially 191 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: a championship, and then all the contract stuff works itself out, 192 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: and at some point every player sort of bets on himself. 193 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: I mean Joe Flacco did that back in twenty twelve. 194 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: He went into the twenty twelve season that was the 195 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: fifth year of his rookie deal and didn't sign a 196 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: long term deal and better on himself, went and won 197 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: a championship, and before you know it, he's banking god 198 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: knows how much money. And it really didn't pan out 199 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: for him in Baltimore after that, but he played it right. 200 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: Timing is everything and it really worked out. But DeShawn saying, look, 201 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: I just I just take care of things I can 202 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: take care of I play ball. I do what I 203 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: need to do. I lead this team. A lot has 204 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: played already. But that's the process part. The results will follow. 205 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: But Mark, he's got some help along with him. Here's 206 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: DeShawn on working with his new weapons. Yeah, I've worked 207 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: that with him a couple of times over the summer. 208 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: We've kind of been making sure that we're you know, 209 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: picking the right time to work out and doing the 210 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: right things and taking the precautions that we need to 211 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: make sure that everyone is staying safe. You know, they 212 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 1: have you know, everyone have a family. You know, they 213 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: have kids and a wife, and so you know, making 214 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: sure that they're staying safe, that their wife and the 215 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: kids are you know, making sure that they're on the 216 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: same page or what we're doing and what we're working 217 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: out and who we've been around and checking temperature and 218 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: things like that, staying sanitize. So um, you know, it's 219 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: been it's been good the times we've been working out, 220 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: but it's also been difficult and kind of you know, 221 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 1: nerve wracking because we haven't been able to work out 222 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: as much as you know we wanted to. But at 223 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: the same time, you know, we've been FaceTime testing, doing 224 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: a lot of mental work, so whenever they came in, 225 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: they were ready and prepared. You know. One of the 226 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: things to two things Mark number one, Speaking of sanitization, 227 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: did you see the Broncos going on the practice field today. 228 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: They leave their building. When they leave their building, they 229 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: go underneath what looks like almost like a security um, 230 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: a little like a security gate, you know, and essentially 231 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: there's a spray coming down from the top of the 232 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, the top of the thing, coming down on 233 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: them as they go. So it's kind of like you 234 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: know when you watch you know, the donuts that Krispy 235 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: Kreme and the donuts go around and there's just like this, 236 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: you know, this flow of Yeah, this glaze that comes down. Yeah, 237 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 1: they're glazing the players. They're sanitizing the player. I thought 238 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: that was kind of interesting. Um. But the other aspect 239 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: of it is he's got some new weapons. David Johnson 240 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: comes in, uh, you know, Randall Cobb comes in. Now, 241 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: those two don't have knowledge of the offense, but their 242 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: vets and they've been around. Brandon Cooks albeit has been 243 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: with different teams, but one of his stops was in 244 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: New England. He's at least heard this verbiage. He's at 245 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 1: least heard this offense now might be a little different 246 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: than what they did New England with Tom Brady uh 247 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. Versus what to do with the Sean. 248 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: But I'll imagine, as we've talked with Bill over the years, 249 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: when they had to indoctrinate, somebody would give him the basics. 250 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: I want imagine Brandy Cooks knows the basics and then 251 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: some and then okay, here are a couple of the 252 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: wrinkles that they have just for an offense led by 253 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: the Shawn as opposed to you won led by Tom Brady. 254 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: But at least you have that to you have that 255 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: in common that Brandon's at least hurt it so he 256 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: can hit the ground running when he just learns the 257 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: little nuances of things working with the Shawan as a post, 258 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: I got like Tom Brady or Drew Breesh put it 259 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: this way. We were talking about Cooks, and he talked 260 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 1: about Cooks playing with Drew Brees and Tom Brady and 261 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 1: Jared Goff. And then you have Cobb with Aaron Rodgers 262 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: for all those years, and then Dak Prescott, and then 263 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: you have David Johnson, who spent a little time with 264 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray last year, which is okay, it was a rookie, 265 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: but the other guys, Look, these guys are total pros. 266 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: They're gonna hit the ground running. They're gonna be fine. 267 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: They're gonna pick up everything they need to pick up. 268 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: They fit all the characteristics of the type of player 269 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: the Texans are looking for. Plus they're ballers. They can play. 270 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean, they have the mental part and they have 271 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: the physical part. They're ready to go. Just gotta stay healthy. 272 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: Gotta stay healthy from COVID and from injury, and let's 273 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: see what happens. Speaking of staying healthy, a guy that 274 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: is not new to the Texans but does need to 275 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: stay healthy is Will Floyer. The fifth Sean was asked 276 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: about the expectations for the fifth year wide receiver from 277 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Well, Will's gonna ball out. I mean, Will 278 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: is gonna be one of the best receivers in the league. 279 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: So you know, he's He's came back a lot stronger, 280 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: a lot faster. Um, I mean he was really really, 281 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: really good, very confident in himself and what he did 282 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: over the off season. I'm very confident and what he 283 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: can do. And um, we all are as an organization, 284 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: as a as a team, So um, there's no doubt 285 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: that Will can you know, take that role and do 286 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: you know great things with it. Mark. I will admit 287 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: even though I I mean, I love DeAndre Hopkins and 288 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: loved watching him play. When Will Floorer was on the 289 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: field healthy, it was really hard to take your eyes 290 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: off him. I mean, Hopkins was so much fun to watch. 291 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: But you're right, when Will Fuller is on the field, 292 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: he is a football head turner, right. He's one of 293 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: those guys. He's got on field charisma, which means he's 294 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: making a ton of plays and he's just fun to 295 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: watch or operate. As he got more proficient in route 296 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: running and just being an all around receiver, not just 297 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: a guy known to be a burner, he really proved 298 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: us well, not us so much, but proved a lot 299 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: of people wrong when he developed his hands better and 300 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: all the other stuff. This is cool. And I got 301 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: to tip the cap to you, pointing out that he 302 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: looked beefed up, bulked up when you saw him, I 303 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: think last week. And then I told vander Kid this 304 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: and he said, Dad, just go to his Instagram page, 305 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: and that's what I did, and oh my gosh, you 306 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: can see it. On his instagram page he posts workout 307 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: pictures and I linked to it on the Vandermeer's view 308 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: that just posted this weekend. Will's gonna be fun to watch. 309 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: He's always fun to watch. It's gonna be really fun 310 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: to watch this year. And again, you know, we always 311 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: you know, have the disclaimer about staying healthy, but ban 312 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: this could be good. Yeah, it really could be. And 313 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: obviously Will's a Vett, Brandon Cooks a vet. They got 314 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: a lot of vets out in that receiving room. There 315 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: is a rookie in the receiving room. But throughout the team, 316 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: with everything that has gone on, the Vets have really 317 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: got a step forth and give those rookies, I mean 318 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: give them as much as they've got. Look, they weren't 319 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: there for OTAs. They got a condensed period in which 320 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: they can really work with the rookies before they get 321 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: to the actual practices of training camps. This is going 322 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: to be a period in which the rookies are gonna 323 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: have to rely on the Vets. And here's the Sean 324 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: talking about the impact the vets can't have on the 325 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: first year players. It's definitely big, especially the rookies. That's 326 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: gonna you know, play a big role in you know, 327 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: helping this team win games and making sure we all 328 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 1: bring them along. And I feel like this this team 329 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: that we have since I've been in organization is the 330 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: most veterans we had played a lot of football, so 331 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: a lot of rookies get to see a lot of 332 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: different people, especially in different positions, you know, being the quarterback. 333 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: It's kind of hard to be able to touch rookies 334 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: on defense, you know, receivers or line. But we have 335 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: a lot of guys that played a lot of football 336 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: that they can look up to them and watch him 337 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: with them and taught him out of you know, whenever 338 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: daytime come in, said they can perform. Now this past offseason, 339 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: we were at the Combine and Bill O'Brien before he 340 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: went to the podium, had a session with the Houston 341 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: media that were there, and I happened to be standing 342 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 1: right behind the General John McClean when Bill O'Brien said, Yep, 343 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: this year, Tim Kelly's gonna call plays, and I thought 344 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: I was gonna have to catch McLean as he fainted, 345 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: and that that would not have gone well for either 346 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: one of us. But Tim Kelly obviously has been a 347 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: talking point in all offseason because this will be his 348 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: first year calling plays, but at least last year as 349 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator, Tim and Deshaun met a lot about 350 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: what they wanted this offense to be. Bill O'Brien then 351 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: called a place this year went Tim and on meet 352 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: It'll be Tim calling the plays and Sean talked about 353 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: Tim Kelly and Sean having that time and more more 354 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: time to meet. Uh yeah, I mean I had a 355 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: lot of freedom with coach or Brian too. He gave 356 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: me a lot of freedom. We talked a lot of times. 357 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: But being the head coach in the OC, you know, 358 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: there were times where you know, we were you know, 359 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: couldn't meet as much as as we wanted to. But 360 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 1: I feel like with Tim, you know, I get to 361 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: see Tim. That's the only person that I'll meet with 362 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: besides you know t J Yate. So being able to 363 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: have that you know, everyday conversation, every meeting conversation with 364 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: him and being on the same page and sin out 365 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: of eye um definitely is gonna, you know, take us 366 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: a long way. But you know, Tim has been doing 367 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 1: a great job of you know, putting together you know 368 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: different you know game plans and scripts and making sure 369 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: that I'm prepared in each and every game. And I 370 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: can tell that he's you know, don't want to take 371 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: that to a whole other level. So you know with us, 372 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: you know, starting camp and you know the meetings and 373 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: the conversation and the leadway. He's just thrown out there 374 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: and whenever we step on the field has been great. Johnny, 375 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. Is O'Brien gonna have 376 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: the menu with him on the sideline even though he's 377 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: not calling plays? Well, think of your favorite restaurant if 378 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: you've gone, I mean, think of your favorite restaurant. Do 379 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: you not know the menu already? I mean you haven't. Look, 380 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: I'm a guy, and I think every guy listening right now. 381 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 1: When you go out with your date with your brother, 382 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: if assuming you've been out with her a bunch, you know, 383 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: a long time relationship, your wife would ever, I mean, 384 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: how many of us really look at the menu at 385 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: a place that we've been to a few times. We don't, right, 386 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna get what we want. It's the old cliche. 387 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: We can order the meal in twelve seconds or less. 388 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: They want to know does this come with that? How 389 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: is the sauce? Is it? Think? Is it? Then? Can 390 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: I get that on the side? You know how it is? 391 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: All right? So I just thought i'd go there for 392 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: a moment. Well, yeah, And my point in that is, 393 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: when when I was when I was catching many Minion 394 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: mini years ago, I would the day before the game, 395 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: I would sit down and I would do my entire 396 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: play card and it would take me like two to 397 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: two and a half hours, and I would write it 398 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: all out. I would write it all out, I would 399 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: highlight certain things, I would categorize it in certain ways. 400 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: And what ended up happening was is I was writing 401 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: it and I was going through it, it basically got 402 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: stuck in my head. So I hardly ever looked at 403 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: my play card because I knew it already after having 404 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: spent all that time during the week working on it 405 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: and then writing it all down. My point in that 406 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: is Bill will probably have it in his hands and 407 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: he'll probably know it's there, and he might look at 408 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: it in between series with Tim every now and again. Well, 409 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: my guess is this is Tim's opportunity to shine. That's 410 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: just my gut feeling is that this is his opportunity 411 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: to shine. And Bill's going to interject when he feels 412 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: like he needs to. But like when goose Is call 413 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: him place, George Gotzi, George called the place, and obviously 414 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: Bill would have some input into those things. But Bill 415 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: trusted George, and I think Bill trusts him, and I think, 416 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 1: to George's dismay, he did not have Deshaun Watson. Tim 417 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: Kelly does, and I think that was important for those two. 418 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: But when he announced that during a comma, I remember thinking, 419 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: as we were walking back to the podium to then 420 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: hear Bill after that, I remember thinking, this is a 421 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: good thing. I actually was. I was happy because I 422 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: feel like that just alleviates one thing. It takes one 423 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: thing off of Bill's play, and I think Tim is 424 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: going to be an excellent play caller when it's all 425 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 1: said and done. And look, there might be some hiccups 426 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: early on, but once they get on the same page 427 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: with one another, I think this is gonna end up 428 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 1: being a really good thing for both Tim Kelly Deshaun Watson. 429 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: In this entire offense excellent points. I mean, I can't 430 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: wait to see the whole thing in action. And Watson 431 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: just said it in the cut right there. You know 432 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: that they didn't always have time to meet as much 433 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: as maybe was wanted. I don't know, I mean, I 434 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: don't know how much to read into that, but clearly 435 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: there are a whole lot of things you got to 436 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: worry about as the head coach of a football team. 437 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: So maybe this is really gonna help. We'll see. But 438 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 1: you're right working with Watson. I mean, who's not gonna 439 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: love that? Now. A little bit later, after Deshaun finished, 440 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: J J. Watt strode to the podium or actually maybe 441 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: just walked in and set down in front of a 442 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: zoom camera, because that's how we do interviews now, So 443 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: let's hear what JJ had to say and we'll do 444 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: some overunders next.

We were wondering how we'd make it. 511 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: We had to look carefully at our budget, at our resources, 512 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: and thankfully applied for a PPP loan. I'll tell you 513 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: it's made all the difference. Thank you.

All right, bring you back in. You 544 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: didn't really hear that, did you didn't hear it? Okay? Good, 545 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: all right, excellent. I know what you did here on Saturday, 546 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: and that was Deshaun Watson. Will we just played some 547 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: of the Shawn Watson's cuts, So let's keep the Texas 548 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: audio jukebox going. For Justin James Watt, who also met 549 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: with the media a short time after the Sean got 550 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: done with us, JJ walked in and of course, quarantine 551 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: has changed pretty much everything for everybody in sports. JJ 552 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: talked about how the quarantine has actually helped his workouts 553 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. Um I would say, not specifically to 554 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: COVID for my own personal risk, but I would say 555 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: that the quarantine situation has given me literally nothing to 556 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: do but workout every day. I mean, there's there's nothing 557 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: else you can do. You can't go out, you can't 558 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: go to the movies, you can't go to eat. So 559 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: the workout program for me this offseason has been awesome 560 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: because I've had a full offseason to do my workouts 561 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: exactly how I needed to do him. I've been able 562 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: to focus on my nutrition every single day. I've counted 563 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: every single calorie the whole way m basically try to 564 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: fully transform my body from the beginning of the offseason 565 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: until now, and it truly has been one of the 566 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: best offseasons from a workout standpoint, that I've ever had. 567 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: And I'm very very pleased about it. I mean, my 568 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: body feels as good as it's felt since probably two fourteen, 569 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, somewhere around there. So I'm really looking forward 570 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: to getting into camp and just getting to work. Mark, 571 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: when you heard that, I mean, just listen to JJ 572 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: as he started the press conference, and I don't know 573 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: where that cut fell in the list of his discussion points, 574 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: but when he said his body he felt as good 575 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: as it had in fourteen and fifteen, it caught my attention. 576 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: I was like, whoa man, Yeah, that's tremendous, dude. Now, 577 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: I know at twenty eighteen he had come back obviously 578 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: off the two years of injury. In sixteen he had 579 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: the core issue and then the back, and then he 580 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: had at twenty seventeen the leg injury, and then he 581 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: came back twenty eighteen and he was you know, when 582 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 1: you come off an injury and you rehab that injury, 583 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if you ever feel like you're at 584 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. And last year was a little different 585 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: with the injury, had a peck injury, and actually he 586 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: was able to come back and play in the two 587 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: playoff games. But when he said my body feels as 588 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: good as fourteen or fifteen. I kind of sat up 589 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: in my chair and went, oh, okay, all right, this 590 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: is what we wanted to hear. And obviously, look it 591 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: mean it takes one play, as we found out in 592 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: the Kansas City game, it just takes one play. He 593 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: was in great shape in twenty seventeen and it can 594 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 1: just take one play. That's all it takes. I mean, 595 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: obviously last the peck injury, same thing. But to hear 596 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: that he was in his body has felt as good 597 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: it did fourteen to fifteen. Who that was good to hear. Well, 598 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: it's year ten, Johnny, and it doesn't last forever, and 599 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: he knows that. I remember interviewing him in year five 600 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: and I said, look, you're gonna play for a long time, 601 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: but you know, here you are in year five. I mean, 602 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: how does that feel. It's you know, you're halfway through 603 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: a decade. And he said, yeah, I'm starting to think 604 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: about that, you know. And he was thinking about it then, 605 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,239 Speaker 1: because he's a very aware person. As we all know, 606 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: life plan as Sean Cody and Connor Barwin once told 607 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: me when he was a rookie. So here is what 608 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: year ten he knows that it can't go on forever. 609 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: He wants to have a huge season and he always does, 610 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: but you just feel that there's something special on the 611 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: horizon here with him after a tremendous offseason of working out. 612 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: Now we have football to play, though, so it's a 613 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: little bit different. We all know that just got to 614 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: find a way to get through it. You know, every team, 615 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: by the way, I know people think it's a oken record, kids. 616 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: A record was something he's spun on a turntable, played music, whatever, 617 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: and sometimes it would scratch and the repeat itself. But 618 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: I know it's a broken record to some you know, 619 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: by saying a guy's got to stay healthy. But what's 620 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: certainly in that category too, I mean everybody does. But 621 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: what's certainly in that category too, because through the last 622 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: four years he's had this season ending injury. Last year 623 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: he came back for the postseason, as we all know. 624 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: So he'll be the first one to tell you that 625 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: is paramount. So you know, he devoted his entire offseason 626 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: to doing whatever he could to try to assure that 627 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: as much as possible, and those pesky OTAs in mini 628 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: camps that would get in the waist seemingly did not 629 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: get in the way, so he had more time to 630 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: rebuild his body, and he talked about rebuilding his body 631 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: with his trainer, Ben Fairchild this offseason. Ben's been incredible. 632 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: Ben's done a great job. He's been part of the 633 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: transformation that fully. You know, we said down in January 634 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: and we talked about the goals for the offseason, and 635 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: the goal is to completely rebuild my body from the 636 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: ground up, to break it all the way down, to 637 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: learn what we need to do, what we need to change, 638 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: how we need to change the training program. And we 639 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: rebuilt it from the very simplest steps in the foundation 640 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: all the way up to where we are today. And 641 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: he's done an incredible job, and I'm fortunate to have 642 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: him as a good trainer. And it's the staff here 643 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: has done a good job too. Mike Ubanks has done 644 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: a great job implementing things from here forward. So I'm 645 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: really looking forward to this season. Johnny, does this mean 646 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: that what became this sort of one hundred pound person 647 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: like he thinned out? Like? Because when he says he 648 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: rebuilt it from the ground up, you know, I'm having 649 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: images of like what becoming this really skinny dude like me, maybe, 650 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, and then building it all the way. But 651 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: he doesn't. He doesn't mean that, does he. No, I 652 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: don't think he took it to that level. Basically, what 653 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: it feels like is he has like a forty thousand 654 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: square foot mansion and they just moved everything out of 655 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: the mansion and then they kind of repainted, fixed up 656 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: some things, and kind of put it all back in. 657 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: It's like, oh man, this looks better than look at 658 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: this new paint, new loose spindles, new handles on all 659 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: the doors. Oh, they put some subway time. It's like, 660 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: that's what they did. He's got a mansion and then 661 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: they just went through every room and kind of just 662 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: took it one room at a time and put it 663 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: all back together. And now hopefully he's ready to go. 664 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't think he went down to one 665 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: hundred pound weekling and then got it back up to 666 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: two ninety. But I don't know. I've seen him. I 667 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: saw him today actually when I went up to go 668 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: do my COVID testing and he was coming in shortly 669 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: after I did, and I just you know, I see him, 670 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: and you know, I've seen him in the buildings of 671 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. He don't look at any different than twenty fourteen, 672 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He looks, he looks, he 673 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: just looks the same. So it's you know, it's hard 674 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: to tell. But then he just, you know, proofs in 675 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: the pudding when he gets out on the field, and 676 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,280 Speaker 1: how long you can go, the endurance and the strength 677 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: for how long. I mean that obviously ends up being 678 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: the key. Beyond that, Beyond that, it's or in addition 679 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 1: to that, I should say, is having players. And this 680 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: is something that didn't come up. And I'm curious because 681 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 1: the one thing that JJ over the years is known 682 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 1: for doing is not coming off the field, not coming 683 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: off the field, and he's talked about that in training camp. 684 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: He's like, look when I'm when I'm out and dressed, 685 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: I want to be in the practice. So they came 686 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: up with a plan for him last year in training camp, 687 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: and that was if jj reps are gonna be limited, 688 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: then they just hold him out of practice. And I 689 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: think that's a that's a good way to go, and 690 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 1: obviously you can't do that in games. But there was 691 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: a great plan going into the Buffalo game, and that 692 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: was he's gonna be used sporadically in the first half, 693 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: and then when it came the nutcutting time in the 694 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: second half and they really needed him, that's when he 695 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: started up in his reps and he had he had 696 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: the conditioning at that point to be able to handle 697 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: that in the second half. I don't know if you're 698 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: gonna do that every single game, but I think it's 699 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 1: gonna be paramount that guy step up to be able 700 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: to give him rest. So JJ doesn't have to be 701 00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 1: on the field for one hundred percent of the place 702 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: this year, and that I think, along with his conditioning, 703 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,439 Speaker 1: will help him going forward. Sixteen games plus playoffs. Boy, 704 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: guys like that, I don't know how you take them out, 705 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: you know, if you're a coach, can't You can't take 706 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: him out. And every coach's face that there was a 707 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: I've told the stories. I don't know if I've told 708 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: it on the air, but ball State when I was 709 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,240 Speaker 1: at Central Michigan was a good basketball program. Eventually Bonzi 710 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: Wells would starve for them, but earlier they had a 711 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 1: kid named Jamie Matthews, real good point guard. This team 712 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: was winning the league almost every year back then, and 713 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: the coach, who was Dick Huntsinger took over for Rick 714 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: Majerris there. He would not start Jamie Matthews as point guard. 715 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 1: And you know why wouldn't you start him? He said, 716 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: because once he's in, I'm never taking him out. So 717 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: I sub him in at the first media time out 718 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 1: and then he plays the rest of the game. And 719 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty funny because he had no 720 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: self control over taking a star point guard out. It's 721 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: kind of funny. That's amazing. Now, speaking of point guards, 722 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: obviously Texans have a good one of them in quarterback. 723 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: To Seaun Watson, JJ was, what does it mean to 724 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: have Watson on your side? I mean, he means an 725 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: opportunity to win every game. Very fortunate to have a 726 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: quarterback who will keep you win every game no matter 727 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: what the situation. Know that you go into a game 728 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: with a chance to win every single game you play. 729 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 1: He's a great player. He can make anything happen on 730 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: the field. He can get out of any tough situation. 731 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 1: You never feel like you're out of a game when 732 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: you have him at quarterback. Does a great job leading 733 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 1: that offense, does a great job going out there and 734 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: putting points on the board. And so my job is 735 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: a defensive player, and the defensive leader of the team 736 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: is to do whatever possible to give him the ball 737 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: so that he can go do what he does. Um, 738 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 1: we just want to keep points off the board and 739 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: give for the ball. He loves playing with him. Yeah, yeah, 740 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: oh yeah, you got to. I mean, if you watch 741 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: the any of the highlights of the playoff game and 742 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: watched him JJ react with Deshaw and Deshaw with JJ, 743 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,919 Speaker 1: there's no question. I mean, but think about it, Mark, 744 00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean, he went through a period with you know, 745 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: Fitzi and Hoyer and Brock until you know, DeShawn got there, 746 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 1: and obviously shab was quarterback, you know, the first couple 747 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: of years he was, he was here, and then obviously 748 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: things didn't go well at the end from Matt and 749 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: then kind of went through the journeyman stage and all 750 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: of a sudden, he can look out there and go, Okay, 751 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 1: Shawn's got this. Offense has got this. This isn't gonna 752 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: fall back on the defense's lap. It's gonna be the 753 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: offense has got this. But the defense has to have 754 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 1: learned something from that. Casey Loss and JJ talked about 755 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: what he and they have learned from that loss in 756 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I think not learning from that situation would 757 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: be naive of us. I think that you have to 758 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: understand what happened in that situation. You have to let 759 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: that situation fuel you and let that fire build within you, 760 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: knowing how terrible that felt. So yeah, we have to 761 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 1: learn from it, grow from it, and be able to 762 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 1: handle what comes next after that. So no, I don't 763 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 1: think that we're necessarily ignoring it or moving on from it. 764 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: We learn from it and then we grow and build 765 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 1: off of it. So that's our goal. And I do 766 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 1: think that learning from a situation like that does get 767 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: us closer to where we want to be in terms 768 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 1: of our goals of winning a championship. All right, let 769 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: me give you something that I learned when I went 770 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 1: back and watched that game again, Mark, what'd you learn? 771 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: I learned that the defense cannot allow a quarterback to 772 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 1: get out of contain and hope to keep fifty one 773 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: points out the board, especially when you play a guy 774 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: like Patrick Mahomes. What is When I went back and 775 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: watched it, yes, everybody's like, oh man, the Chiefs fifty 776 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: one straight points and you know our fifty one to seven. 777 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: The run that they had, and obviously the first few 778 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: came out short field off the Miko Hardman return. The 779 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: fake pump was a short field. The funneling to kick 780 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: off of the short field, sure, there's no doubt, but 781 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: if you watch for the rest of the game, you 782 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: realize Patrick Mahomes got out of the pocket often, and 783 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: whether it was ducking up inside an edge rusher and 784 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,520 Speaker 1: then getting out or whether it's just going around an 785 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: edge rusher. Either way, Patrick Mahomes made a lot of 786 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 1: plays in that game getting out of the pocket containment. 787 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,439 Speaker 1: It's huge, It's absolutely massive. The Texans have too many 788 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: players up front to allow that to happen. They should 789 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 1: force quarterbacks to have to throw from the well with 790 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: a guy hanging all over him all year long. And 791 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: I don't care it's back there Mahomes Lamar Jackson doesn't matter. 792 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 1: The pass rush in particular has got to be disciplined. 793 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: And when jjan is out for eight games because of 794 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: the way that he rushes the quarterback, and we've talked 795 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 1: about this in previous years, the players sort of the 796 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: rusher sort of feed off of him. JJ kind of 797 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: goes and then people kind of react off of him. 798 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: And that was kind of the m O. And you 799 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: could tell that wasn't kind of in full force the 800 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: guys out on the field, and you ended up a 801 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 1: couple of guys in the same gap and then Patrick 802 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 1: just takes off. They've got to be more discipline the 803 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: pass rush, and they've got to keep quarterbacks in the 804 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: well and contain them. And if they do that, okay, 805 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: if he beat you, beat you at that point, but 806 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,720 Speaker 1: don't let him get out of the pocket and create 807 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: to beat you. And maybe that day, maybe Mahomes does 808 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: it that day, regardless, But there's got to be more 809 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 1: discipline about that one particular thing more than anything else 810 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: they do all years that contain the quarterback in the well, 811 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 1: especially a guy like Mahomes. It applies to Jackson, it 812 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: applies to Mahomes, It applies to Watson too. How do 813 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:38,959 Speaker 1: you think Buffalo felt a split second before Watson Eskate 814 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: for one of the great plays in the history of 815 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 1: the franchise when he scrambled out to the right and 816 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: hit Taiwan Jones rightain they just missed the tackle. Yeah, 817 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: those guys coming off the Yes, they were like, if 818 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: you get us freeze time right there, they're like, oh 819 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 1: my gosh, this is gonna be so good. We're about 820 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: to force third and very long, we're gonna get the 821 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: ball back. We're gonna have a chance to win this playoff. Nope, sorry, 822 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: game over Watson him. I think Johnny with a dynamic, 823 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback, I still think you got to come after 824 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: him from all directions, you know, doubt, no doubt, no doubt. 825 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I'm not saying hold back. I'm not 826 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 1: saying just kind of play patty Cake up front because 827 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: you're scared of a guy getting out around you. You 828 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: have to attack, but you have to attack intelligently. That 829 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 1: you have to be able to do if you can 830 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: attack intelligently, and that's gonna be put on Anthony Waver 831 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: to be able to do that. But if they're able 832 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,760 Speaker 1: to do that, then they're gonna have an opportunity, especially 833 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: if JJ's healthy, because he's gonna draw so much attention. 834 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: And we saw that in the first day games. He 835 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 1: drew a ton of attention. Now, JJ unfortunately and the 836 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: Texans defense unfortunately in a game like Indianapolis, he was 837 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 1: you know, he was doing his job upfront, but they 838 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 1: had no secondary guys. Because they're all banged up. So anyhow, 839 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: it's all got to work together. Bill Lebryan says, all 840 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: time rush and average, but containment of the quarterback is huge. 841 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: All right, let's go Rountal League. We'll save our overrunners 842 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: for later in the week. Let's go Rountal League and 843 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:11,919 Speaker 1: Tonio Brown's fate that will say seemingly sealed, but there's 844 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: at least a decision made and COVID strikes quarterbacks and 845 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: head coach.

The one thing with COVID 962 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: nineteen that we've seen in the league with we've seen 963 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 1: that reserve list players going on that we hadn't seen 964 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: for a while. We're already quarterbacks. And then over the 965 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 1: weekend we saw two quarterbacks go on that list, two 966 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: that actually the Texans will end up playing Troy Lyons 967 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford and Jacksonville Jaguar Gardner. Minshew. Now, if you 968 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: would have said all right, give me odds of the 969 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that Texans are gonna face who would end up 970 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 1: with COVID. Gardner Minshew would have been at the top 971 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: of my list. Matt Stafford would not have been at 972 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,479 Speaker 1: the top of my list at all. I I don't 973 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: say I was shocked to hear that about them, And 974 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 1: obviously you don't want anybody to end up with COVID. 975 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 1: But man, the timing of it, just as you're getting 976 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 1: into camp, especially those two teams in particular, I the 977 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 1: Jags are a little different, because it did feel like 978 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: there was kind of this movement already towards youth. But 979 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 1: the trade lines have got to win. They have absolutely 980 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: map Patrician Bob Quinn. Need to win? Was your good 981 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 1: reaction when you saw that news. Well, look it's it's 982 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,879 Speaker 1: August third, right. A month from now, you still will 983 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 1: be over a week away from your opener, all right. 984 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 1: If you're those teams now, for the Houston Texans, they 985 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 1: open September tenth, So do the math. A month from 986 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 1: now there will be a week away from their opener, 987 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 1: so you have a lot of time to recover from it. 988 00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: Let's hope they don't get sick and they're asymptomatic or whatever. 989 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 1: I taught to more and more people who know people 990 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: who've had it or whatever. And obviously it's varying degrees. 991 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: Very often asymptomatic, sometimes a little bit worse, sometimes a 992 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: lot worse. You know, I noticed hospitalizations were down again 993 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 1: in Houston. They're trending down. This is very good news. 994 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 1: I see you is full. But it was into phase 995 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: two up to thirty five percent or so, and now 996 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:21,879 Speaker 1: Phase two is all the way down to zero. Now 997 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: that could go back up again, but I think everything's 998 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 1: trending in the right direction here, and you have to 999 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 1: hope that, you know, eventually we get this thing down, 1000 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: but it's it's gonna be there all year, you know, 1001 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 1: the concern will be there all year, and you have 1002 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 1: to battle it. And Doug Peterson, Eagles head coach, also 1003 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: diagnosed with COVID. He is asymptomatic. And the coaches bring 1004 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 1: up kind of a whole different ball of wax. Each 1005 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: each organization has got an assistant head coach and they 1006 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 1: I would imagine that's one of the first things that 1007 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 1: they talked about. Bill O'Brien and his staff. Look, if 1008 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: this happens to me, this is how we're gonna go 1009 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 1: about it happens to you. This is how we're gonna 1010 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 1: go about it happens to you. This is how we're 1011 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 1: gonna go about it.

I 1135 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 1: was like, whoa man, Yeah, that's tremendous, dude. Now I 1136 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: know at twenty eighteen he had come back obviously off 1137 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:17,440 Speaker 1: the two years of injury. In sixteen he had the 1138 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 1: core issue and then the back, and then he had 1139 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 1: at twenty seventeen the leg injury, and then he came 1140 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 1: back twenty eighteen and he was, you know, when you 1141 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 1: come off an injury and you rehab that injury, I 1142 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,240 Speaker 1: don't know if you ever feel like you're at one 1143 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: hundred percent. And last year was a little different with 1144 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 1: the injury, had a peck injury, and actually he was 1145 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: able to come back and play in the two playoff games. 1146 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: But when he said my body feels as good as 1147 01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen, I kind of set up in my 1148 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:47,439 Speaker 1: chair and went, oh, okay, all right, this is what 1149 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: we wanted to hear. And obviously, look it mean it 1150 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:52,800 Speaker 1: takes one play, as we found out in the Kansas 1151 01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:54,440 Speaker 1: City game, it just takes one play. He was in 1152 01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 1: great shape in twenty seventeen and it can just take 1153 01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 1: one play. That's all it takes. I mean, obviously last 1154 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,959 Speaker 1: year the peck injuries, the same thing. But to hear 1155 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 1: that he was in his body has felt as good 1156 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 1: it did fourteen to fifteen. Ooh that was good to hear. Well, 1157 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:12,480 Speaker 1: it's year ten, Johnny, and it doesn't last forever. And 1158 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 1: he knows that. I remember interviewing him in year five 1159 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 1: and I said, look, you're gonna play for a long time. 1160 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 1: But you know, here you are in year five. I mean, 1161 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 1: how does that feel. It's you know, you're halfway through 1162 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:24,680 Speaker 1: a decade. And he said, yeah, I'm starting to think 1163 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 1: about that, you know. And he was thinking about it then, 1164 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 1: because he's a very aware person, as we all know, 1165 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 1: life plan, as Sean Cody and Connor Barwin once told 1166 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 1: me when he was a rookie. So here is what 1167 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 1: year ten. He knows that it can't go on forever. 1168 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:42,840 Speaker 1: He wants to have a huge season and he always does, 1169 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 1: but you just feel that there's something special on the 1170 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:51,439 Speaker 1: horizon here with him after a tremendous offseason of working out. 1171 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: Now we have football to play though, so it's a 1172 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: little bit different. We all know that. Just got to 1173 01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: find a way to get through it, you know, every team, 1174 01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 1: by the way, I know people think it's a broken record. Kids. 1175 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 1: A record was something he's spun on a turntable, played 1176 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:05,920 Speaker 1: music whatever, and sometimes it would scratch and the repeat itself. 1177 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 1: But I know it's a broken record to some, you know, 1178 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 1: by saying a guy's got to stay healthy. But what's 1179 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: certainly in that category too, I mean everybody does, but 1180 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 1: what's certainly in that category too, because through the last 1181 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 1: four years he's had this season ending injury. Last year, 1182 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:20,480 Speaker 1: he came back for the postseason, as we all know, 1183 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 1: so he'll be the first one to tell you that 1184 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 1: is paramount. So you know, he devoted his entire offseason 1185 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 1: to doing whatever he could to try to assure that 1186 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: as much as possible, and those pesky OTAs at mini 1187 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 1: camps so would get in the waist seemingly did not 1188 01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 1: get in the way, so he had more time to 1189 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:40,960 Speaker 1: rebuild his body, and he talked about rebuilding his body 1190 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 1: with his trainer, Ben Fairchild. This offseason. Ben's been incredible. 1191 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Ben's done a great job. He's been part of the 1192 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 1: transformation that fully. You know. We sat down in January 1193 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: and we talked about the goals for the offseason, and 1194 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 1: the goal is to completely rebuild my body from the 1195 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 1: ground up, to break it all the way down, to 1196 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 1: learn what we need to do, what we need to change, 1197 01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 1: how we need to change the training program. And we 1198 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,680 Speaker 1: rebuilt it from the very simplest steps in the foundation 1199 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 1: all the way up to where we are today. And 1200 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 1: he's done an incredible job and I'm fortunate to have 1201 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 1: him as a good trainer, and it's staff here has 1202 01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: done a good job too. Mike Ubanks has done a 1203 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 1: great job implementing things from here forward. So I'm really 1204 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 1: looking forward to this season. Johnny, does this mean that 1205 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 1: what became this sort one hundred pound person like he 1206 01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:26,960 Speaker 1: thinned out? Like? Because when he says he rebuilt it 1207 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,600 Speaker 1: from the ground up, you know, I'm having images of 1208 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 1: like what becoming this really skinny dude like me maybe, 1209 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:33,680 Speaker 1: you know, and then building it all the way. But 1210 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 1: he doesn't. He doesn't mean that, does he? No, I 1211 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 1: don't think he took it to that level. Basically, what 1212 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:44,400 Speaker 1: it feels like is he has like a forty thousand 1213 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:49,160 Speaker 1: square foot mansion and they just moved everything out of 1214 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: the mansion and then they kind of repainted, fixed up 1215 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 1: some things, and kind of put it all back in. 1216 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 1: It's like, oh man, this looks better than new. Look 1217 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 1: this new paint, new low spindles, new handles on all 1218 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 1: the doors. Oh, they put some subway time. It's like 1219 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:08,880 Speaker 1: that's what they did. He's got a mansion. Then they 1220 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 1: just went through every room and kind of just took 1221 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:14,640 Speaker 1: it one room at a time and put it all 1222 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:17,760 Speaker 1: back together. And now hopefully he's ready to go. So yeah, 1223 01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:19,479 Speaker 1: I don't think he went down to one hundred pound 1224 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,919 Speaker 1: weekling and then got it back up to two ninety. 1225 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I've seen him. I saw him 1226 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: today actually when I went up to go do my 1227 01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,919 Speaker 1: my COVID testing and he was coming in shortly after 1228 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 1: I did, and I just, you know, I see him, 1229 01:04:31,880 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 1: and you know, I've seen him in the buildings of 1230 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,480 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. He don't look at any different than twenty fourteen, 1231 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, he looks, he looks, he 1232 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,560 Speaker 1: just looks the same. So it's you know, it's hard 1233 01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: to tell. But then he just, you know, proofs in 1234 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 1: the pudding when he gets out on the field, and 1235 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:48,880 Speaker 1: how long you can go, the endurance and the strength 1236 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 1: for how long I mean obviously ends up being the key. 1237 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 1: Beyond that, Beyond that, it's or in addition to that, 1238 01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:00,040 Speaker 1: I should say, is having player. And then this this 1239 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 1: is something that didn't come up. And I'm curious because 1240 01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:05,920 Speaker 1: the one thing that JJ over the years is known 1241 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:09,840 Speaker 1: for doing is not coming off the field, not coming 1242 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,080 Speaker 1: off the field, and he's talked about that in training camp. 1243 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 1: He's like, look when I'm when I'm out and dressed. 1244 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 1: I want to be in the practice. So they came 1245 01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 1: up with a plan for him last year in training camp, 1246 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 1: and that was if jj reps are gonna be limited, 1247 01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 1: then they just hold him out of practice. And I 1248 01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 1: think that's a that's a good way to go, and 1249 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 1: obviously you can't do that in games. But there was 1250 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:34,760 Speaker 1: a great plan going into the Buffalo game, and that 1251 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,200 Speaker 1: was he's gonna be used sporadically in the first half, 1252 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: and then when it came the nutcutting time in the 1253 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 1: second half and they really needed him, that's when he 1254 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:44,919 Speaker 1: started up in his reps and he had he had 1255 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 1: the conditioning at that point to be able to handle 1256 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:50,040 Speaker 1: that in the second half. I don't know if you're 1257 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 1: gonna do that every single game, but I think it's 1258 01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 1: gonna be paramount that guys step up to be able 1259 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 1: to give him rest. So JJ doesn't have to be 1260 01:05:57,960 --> 01:05:59,440 Speaker 1: on the field for one hundred percent of the place 1261 01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 1: this year, and that, I think, along with his conditioning, 1262 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:06,040 Speaker 1: will help him going forward. Sixteen games plus playoffs. Boy, 1263 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:08,200 Speaker 1: guys like that, I don't know how you take them out. 1264 01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,760 Speaker 1: You know, if you're a coach, can't you can't take 1265 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 1: him out and every coach's face that there was a 1266 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:15,960 Speaker 1: I've told the stories. I don't know if I've told 1267 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: it on the air, but Ball State when I was 1268 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 1: at Central Michigan was a good basketball program. Eventually Bonzi 1269 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 1: Wells would starve for them, but earlier they had a 1270 01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: kid named Jamie Matthews, real good point guard. This team 1271 01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 1: was winning the league almost every year back then, and 1272 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 1: the coach, who was Dick Huntsinger, took over for Rick 1273 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 1: Majerris there he would not start Jamie Matthews as point guard. 1274 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: And you know why wouldn't you start him? He said, 1275 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,320 Speaker 1: because once he's in, I'm never taking him out. So 1276 01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 1: I sub him in at the first media time out 1277 01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:44,920 Speaker 1: and then he plays the rest of the game. And 1278 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty funny because he had no 1279 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 1: self control over taking a star point guard out. It's 1280 01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 1: kind of funny. That's amazing. Now, speaking of point guards, obviously, 1281 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 1: Texans have a good one of them in quarterback to 1282 01:06:56,920 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 1: Seaun Watson, JJ was asked, where is the need to 1283 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 1: have Watson on your side? I mean, he means an 1284 01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:05,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to win every game. Very fortunate to have a 1285 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:08,400 Speaker 1: quarterback who will keep you win every game, no matter 1286 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,520 Speaker 1: what the situation, and know that you go into a 1287 01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:12,760 Speaker 1: game with a chance to win every single game you play. 1288 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,160 Speaker 1: He's a great player. He can make anything happen on 1289 01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,960 Speaker 1: the field. He can get out of any tough situation. 1290 01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 1: You never feel like you're out of a game when 1291 01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 1: you have him at quarterback. Does a great job leading 1292 01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: that offense, does a great job going out there and 1293 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,560 Speaker 1: putting points on the board. And so my job is 1294 01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: a defensive player and the defensive leader of the team 1295 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 1: is to do whatever possible to give him the ball 1296 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 1: so that he can go do what he does. We 1297 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:37,080 Speaker 1: just want to keep points off the board and give 1298 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:41,800 Speaker 1: for the ball. He loves playing with him, Yeah yeah, 1299 01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 1: oh yeah, you got to. I mean, if you watch 1300 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 1: the any of the highlights of the playoff game and 1301 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 1: watched him JJ react with DeShawn and Deshaw with JJ, 1302 01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 1: there's no question. I mean, but think about it, Mark, 1303 01:07:56,560 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he went through a period with you know, 1304 01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:05,320 Speaker 1: Fitzi and Hoyer and Brock until you know, DeShawn got there, 1305 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,919 Speaker 1: and obviously Shab was quarterback, you know, the first couple 1306 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 1: of years he was he was here, and then obviously 1307 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:13,600 Speaker 1: things didn't go well at the end from Matt and 1308 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 1: then kind of went through the journeyman stage and all 1309 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:18,799 Speaker 1: of a sudden he can look out there and go, Okay, 1310 01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:21,840 Speaker 1: Shawn's got this. Offense has got this. This isn't gonna 1311 01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: fall back on the defense's lap. It's gonna be the 1312 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:28,400 Speaker 1: offense has got this. But the defense has to have 1313 01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:31,880 Speaker 1: learned something from that casey loss, and JJ talked about 1314 01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:35,040 Speaker 1: what he and they have learned from that loss in 1315 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I think not learning from that situation would 1316 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 1: be naive of us. I think that you have to 1317 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 1: understand what happened in that situation. You have to let 1318 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:50,600 Speaker 1: that situation fuel you and let that fire build within you, 1319 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 1: knowing how terrible that felt. So yeah, we have to 1320 01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 1: learn from it, grow from it, and be able to 1321 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,960 Speaker 1: handle what comes next after that. So no, I don't 1322 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 1: think that we're necessarily ignoring it or moving on from it. 1323 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 1: We learn from it and then we grow and build 1324 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: off of it. So that's our goal. And I do 1325 01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:15,400 Speaker 1: think that learning from a situation like that does get 1326 01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 1: us closer to where we want to be in terms 1327 01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,960 Speaker 1: of our goals of winning a championship. All right, let 1328 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 1: me give you something that I learned when I went 1329 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 1: back and watched that game again, Mark, what did you learn? 1330 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 1: I learned that the defense cannot allow a quarterback to 1331 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 1: get out of contain and hope to keep fifty one 1332 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 1: points out the board, especially when you play a guy 1333 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 1: like Patrick Mahomes. What is when I went back and 1334 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,759 Speaker 1: watched it, Yes, everybody's like, oh man, the Chiefs fifty 1335 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,720 Speaker 1: one straight points and you know our fifty one to 1336 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 1: seven the run that they had, and obviously the first 1337 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:51,040 Speaker 1: few came out short field off the Miko Hardman return. 1338 01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 1: The fake pump was a short field. The funneling to 1339 01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:56,519 Speaker 1: kick off of the short field, sure, there's no doubt, 1340 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:58,639 Speaker 1: but if you watch for the rest of the game, 1341 01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:02,759 Speaker 1: you realize patri Holmes got out of the pocket often. 1342 01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 1: And whether it was ducking up inside an edge rusher 1343 01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:09,000 Speaker 1: and then getting out or whether it's just going around 1344 01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 1: an edge rusher. Either way, Patrick Mahomes made a lot 1345 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 1: of plays in that game getting out of the pocket containment. 1346 01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 1: It's huge, It's absolutely massive. The Texans have too many 1347 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 1: players up front to allow that to happen. They should 1348 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 1: force quarterbacks to have to throw from the well with 1349 01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 1: a guy hanging all over him all year long, and 1350 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,880 Speaker 1: I don't care it's back there Mahomes Lamar Jackson doesn't matter. 1351 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 1: The pass rush in particular has got to be disciplined. 1352 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 1: And when JJ is out for eight games because of 1353 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 1: the way that he rushes the quarterback, and we've talked 1354 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,479 Speaker 1: about this in previous years, the players sort of the 1355 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:49,519 Speaker 1: rusher sort of feed off of him. JJ kind of 1356 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,559 Speaker 1: goes and then people kind of react off of him, 1357 01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:53,360 Speaker 1: and that was kind of the m O. And you 1358 01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 1: could tell that wasn't kind of in full force the 1359 01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 1: guys out on the field, and you ended up a 1360 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:00,559 Speaker 1: couple of guys in the same gap and then Patrick 1361 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:02,920 Speaker 1: just takes off. They've got to be more discipline and 1362 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 1: the pass rush, and they've got to keep quarterbacks in 1363 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,200 Speaker 1: the well and contain them. And if they do that, okay, 1364 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 1: if he beat you, beat you at that point, but 1365 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:13,320 Speaker 1: don't let him get out of the pocket and create 1366 01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:16,680 Speaker 1: to beat you. And maybe that day, maybe Mahomes does 1367 01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,720 Speaker 1: it that day, regardless, but there's got to be more 1368 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:24,000 Speaker 1: discipline about that one particular thing, more than anything else 1369 01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 1: they do all years that contain the quarterback in the well, 1370 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 1: especially a guy like Mahomes. It applies to Jackson, it 1371 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 1: applies to Mahomes, it applies to Watson too. How do 1372 01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:38,679 Speaker 1: you think Buffalo felt a split second before Watson escaped 1373 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:40,479 Speaker 1: for one of the great plays in the history of 1374 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:42,720 Speaker 1: the franchise when he scrambled out to the right and 1375 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:47,320 Speaker 1: hit Taiwan Jones, right, they just missed the tackle. Yeah, 1376 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:49,479 Speaker 1: those guys coming off the Yes, they were like, if 1377 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 1: you get us freeze time right there. They're like, Oh 1378 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,000 Speaker 1: my gosh, this is gonna be so good. We're about 1379 01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:57,200 Speaker 1: to force third and very long, we're gonna get the 1380 01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:59,080 Speaker 1: ball back. We're gonna have a chance to win this 1381 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: playoff game. No sorry, game over Watson him. I think 1382 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 1: Johnny with a dynamic, mobile quarterback, I still think you 1383 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,960 Speaker 1: got to come after him from all directions, you know, doubt, 1384 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 1: no doubt, no doubt. I'm not saying I'm not saying 1385 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:16,559 Speaker 1: hold back. I'm not saying just kind of play Patty 1386 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:18,880 Speaker 1: Cake up front because you're scared of a guy getting 1387 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 1: out around you. You have to attack, but you have 1388 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 1: to attack intelligently. That you have to be able to 1389 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,640 Speaker 1: do if you can attack intelligently, and that's gonna be 1390 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:32,400 Speaker 1: put on Anthony Waver to be able to do that. 1391 01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:35,160 Speaker 1: But if they're able to do that, then they're gonna 1392 01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:37,760 Speaker 1: have an opportunity, especially with JJ's healthy, because he's gonna 1393 01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 1: draw so much attention. And we saw that in the 1394 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 1: first day games he drew a ton of attention. Now, 1395 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 1: JJ unfortunately and the Texans defense unfortunately in a game 1396 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:52,040 Speaker 1: like Indianapolis, he was you know, he was doing his 1397 01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:55,000 Speaker 1: job upfront, but they had no secondary guys because they're 1398 01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 1: all banged up. So anyhow, it's all got to work together. 1399 01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 1: Bill Lebryan says, all time rush and coverage, but containment 1400 01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:03,479 Speaker 1: of the quarterback is huge. All right, let's go Rountal League. 1401 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 1: We'll save our overrunners for later in the week. Let's 1402 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:09,479 Speaker 1: go Rountal League and Tonio Brown's fate that will say 1403 01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 1: seemingly sealed, but there's at least a decision made and 1404 01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 1: COVID strikes quarterbacks and head coach of the NFL.
