Get a lot of questions 20 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: about are we going to see the scrimmage? Are we 21 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: going to be able to go to the scrimmage? No 22 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: and no, but we will be there with the pre 23 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: scrimmage coverage. Some highlights will get out and things like that. 24 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: We'll let you know what happens. We'll be on the 25 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: air Friday evening at six. Our show today is one 26 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: of our final three Today Tomorrow Thursday morning. That's it 27 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: for Texans Training Camp Live and then back to Seth 28 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: and Sean for the full four hours. But we do 29 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: this every year for the first couple of weeks of camp. 30 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: Obviously different this year because Johnny. Usually we're doing these 31 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: shows and it leads into the first preseason game. So 32 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: I kind of feel that way about anything we might 33 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: see Thursday night. But you know, it's interest squad and 34 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: they're not going to go too heavy. They're not gonna 35 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: want to beat each other up too bad. Are they 36 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: that deal? No? I would think so. But there are 37 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: a lot of teams going into their buildings, you know, 38 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: doing things in their building. I know the Rams and 39 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: the Raiders and the Chargers have all done something in 40 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: their buildings, in part because they're brand new but you know, 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: talking to Jack yesterday, I asked him about, you know, 42 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: the process. I mean, if if you think about it 43 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: from this perspective, these guys never done a game pregame. Yeah, 44 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: they don't know who you know, theyn't know most of 45 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: the A lot of the guys do. But there's a 46 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: decent portion of players even though they've been around the 47 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: league a long time. I'm sure the Texans do things 48 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: a little differently from some other teams. So they gotta 49 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: go through that. They gotta go through that, you know, 50 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: do it for the first time, and usually a preseason 51 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: game is that first time. And then even if guys 52 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: aren't playing, they still go through the process in Week two, three, 53 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: and four, so they at least no Week one. Okay, 54 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: this is where I line up for pregame. This is 55 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: where I line up pro activation, This is where I go. 56 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: This is where our individual periods are going to be 57 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: in pregame. This is how we do it. We go 58 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 1: in coach talks to us, we come out. That's what 59 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: a lot of teams have been doing. They've been going 60 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: through that process. And other Titans did that in the 61 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: rain a few nights ago, going into their building wearing 62 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: their game uniforms and the Steelers where they're full on 63 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: game uniforms to go through that process, because when when 64 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: will you have done it? Yeah, you know, so that's 65 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: gonna be sad. It's gonna be the first opportunity to 66 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: do it. And I think Thursday is gonna be a 67 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: trial run from all those, you know, to all the 68 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: little things, so that when you do go to Kansas City, 69 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: you know what time the specialists go out, you know 70 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: at time the returners go out, you know at time 71 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: the receivers and quarterbacks go out. You know, all that 72 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: kind of stuff has to be you know, scripted in 73 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: some sense, and in the locker room there's always a 74 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: script the time of when you do all that. But 75 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: doing it and like just seeing it and talking about 76 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: are two totally different things. So Thursday's gonna be a 77 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: good run through for pretty much everything for these guys 78 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: other than doing something on the road. They will have 79 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: not done something on the road altogether. But you know, 80 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: what you do in the building, you just replicate it 81 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: when you go to Kansas City and then you go 82 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: kick Kansas City's tail and come home one er. Oh right, well, 83 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: thank you very much. In fact, I have a little tidbit. 84 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: I got a game plan for you to beat the Chiefs, 85 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: and it's not what you're thinking. I know the Texans 86 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: beat the Chiefs last year the right regular season, but 87 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: I'm not using that one because I don't want to 88 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: fall behind seventeen to three. You can't kidnap Patrick Mahomes, Dude, 89 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: you just can't. Really, you have to be the voice. 90 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: It's like that movie. What was that movie where a 91 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: Daniel stirring something pride? It was Damon Ways. I think 92 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't really a good movie. Oh it was fantastic. 93 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: You know what I saw last night though, And I 94 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: don't want to get off and on tangent, but I will. 95 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: I've never seen Undercover Brother, but it was on and 96 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: uh yeah, it's it. I don't know if it did 97 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: that well, but I would for something. I must have 98 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: been punchy or whatever, because I just thought it was hilarious. 99 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: It was great. A lot of stereotyping, but come on, 100 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: we can all make fun of each other sometimes. Okay, um, 101 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: we need to have it. We need to do a 102 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: show one day on movies that are off the beaten 103 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: path that nobody were talking about. Mine to go along 104 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: with yours. Okay, she's she's out of your league. That's 105 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: uh oh yeah, that's what The guy who does Jay Miller, 106 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: he's he's in that hockey family, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, 107 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: the hockey He does the voice in How to Train 108 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: a Dragon, the main character there, because vander Kid too 109 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: watches that incessantly. You go off on a tangent. We can't. 110 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: We just did, and we digress because let's talk about 111 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: the weather. Okay, oh boy. It is not usually a 112 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: subject we get into. Actually, we do way too much. 113 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: It's hot, it's cold, it's the Greenbrier, it's beautiful.

However, Hurricane Laura is coming and 116 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: Marco no threat to us. Marco's already you know, yeah, yeah, 117 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: you know. And for a bit it looked like those 118 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: two might get together, you know, like there might be 119 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: some hurricane romance between those two, in which case I 120 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: was wishing that they would name it Luke and Laura, 121 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: like General Hospital in the eighties, or Marco and I 122 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: want to talk about a tangent, we can get on 123 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, we're not gonna get into that, but 124 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: Laura headed to the border of Louisiana and Texas last 125 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: I saw right as of right now, yes, westward. No, 126 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: let's not move anymore. I mean not that I would 127 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: not that I wish it on other people. But Bill 128 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: O'Brien was asked yesterday about the oncoming weather how it 129 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: affects what's going on with the team this week. This 130 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: is what said. We've talked a lot about that, you know, 131 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: pray that it doesn't that it doesn't hit Houston. Looking 132 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: at the the way that are you know, the way 133 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: that we're tracking it right now, Jeff Schmidt's he really 134 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: sends out, you know, multiple emails per day letting us 135 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: know kind of where it's at. It seems like it's 136 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: headed more towards Louisiana, which you know, brutal for them. 137 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: Un doesn't seem like it's you know, really really gonna beer. 138 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: It's kind of a weird course. I don't know if 139 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: any you guys have followed it. It It looks like it's 140 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: coming straight for us, but it's gonna beer off to 141 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the you know, towards the east. So I don't know, 142 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: but we do have plans, you know, we just we 143 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: gotta do. We gotta do, We gotta adjust, you know, 144 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: if something happens where we can't we can't practice or whatever. 145 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: The most important thing is the safety of our players 146 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: and their families, and our coaches and our families and 147 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: all the supports that in their family. So that's how 148 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: we would handle it. Okay, Well, clearly Thursday morning, I 149 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: guess is when the big stuff could happen with Laura 150 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: Yes Wednesday, Wednesday evening, Thursday morning and the Thursday afternoon. 151 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: And Jeff Schmidtz by the way, who were referred to 152 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: as the itzar of the Houston Texans and does a 153 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: terrific job, and he hasn't been busy at all during 154 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: COVID who not at all trying to get not at 155 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: all work for his salary, went to come on Cabo 156 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: for the entire time. Now he uh trying to get 157 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: everybody going from home. Everybody's every company's it. People are 158 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: just completely exhausted right now for a good reason. But 159 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: we'll see how it affects things, if at all. As 160 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: we navigate through our last two shows, they navigate through 161 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: training camp and they have at scrimmage Thursday night. Let's 162 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: hope that everybody stays safe and for the team's sake 163 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: that they can just do business as usual as they 164 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: opened two weeks from Thursday night. Now more from Bill 165 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: O'Brien getting the players ready this week, next week as 166 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: we get closer to game week. Here's what he said. 167 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: We're trying to set up the next two weeks like 168 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: two game weeks, Trandy, So you know Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, 169 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: scrimmage stirt, you know what I mean. So, like that's 170 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: how we're trying to do this. It's not exactly like 171 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: a game week because it's you know, obviously there's some differences. 172 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: But this weekend, next week or big weeks for our 173 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: football team. I thought that yesterday they really came out 174 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: ready to go. I just think if we can keep 175 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: stacking day one day up one day and keep trying 176 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: to get better, it's an improvement league, you know. That's 177 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: really what it's going to be about. This this year 178 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: is going to be about, I believe, for our team, 179 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: not speaking for any other team, to speak for our team. 180 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: Can we do a great job of keeping the virus 181 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: out of this building, and can we get better every 182 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: single day? Can we improve every day? It's a it's 183 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: a league of improvement. Can can players and coaches get 184 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: better every day? And can we keep the stinking virus 185 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: out of our building? The stinking virus yep, I like 186 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: that thinking the sting virus keeping virus? Well about cool. 187 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: So far, no positives. The league is a whole very 188 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: few from the get go. Those false positives. That story 189 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: is in the rear view mirror now pretty much. And 190 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: what do we say last night, fifty eight thousand tests 191 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: from the twelfth of August the twentieth of August, and 192 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: six positives and they were all staff members. There weren't players, 193 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: They're all staff members. So that's a I mean, yeah, 194 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: I mean it's like point I think point oh one 195 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: percent trying to do the math in my head that 196 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: this early is not not good. I used to teach 197 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: at this hour, but it was never that good. So 198 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's an incredible that's an incredible accomplishment 199 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: to this point. I think the NFL should be I 200 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: should be really proud of its players and the staff 201 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: and all the thirty two teams that have put together 202 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: these protocols and you know, I know, the whole false 203 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: positive thing that happened over the weekend mark, you know, 204 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: seventy seven positive tests and they're like, WHOA, Well, each 205 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: team put their protocol in action. They found out that 206 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: the seventy two ended up being false positive because they 207 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: them all the next day. They're all negative. One one one 208 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: was Kevin'stefansky, the head coach the Browns, they put their 209 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 1: protocol in place. He didn't go out to practice. They 210 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: had practice that day and Joe Woods I think as 211 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator, and Joe Rand the practice, no Kevin's, 212 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: so they put it all in order. So in essence, 213 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: teams sort of got a kind of a trial run 214 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: in some respects and kind of in ran with it 215 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: and ended up getting things turned around. Now it's you 216 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: don't want to see that, obviously, but the NFL handled it. 217 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: Then they went in and found that those are all 218 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: false positives, and you can still feel pretty good about 219 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: what these players are doing now it's training camp. But 220 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: what I find interesting about all this mark is we've talked, 221 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: and by we, I mean just a collective we about this. 222 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: You know, as we talked about, oh is the NFL 223 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: is gonna try to do this? So they're gonna try 224 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: and to do all time they can try and do this. 225 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: They can try and do that every single step along 226 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: the way that people said, well, once they get into 227 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 1: the building and once they're around each other that you're 228 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: gonna get rash of positives. Well, you know, once they 229 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: start doing conditioning and they get into their groups and 230 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna then they're gonna get to start a training 231 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: camp and they're gonna be practicing all together. Oh, then 232 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna hit and they're gonna do all that. Well, 233 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 1: they've hit all those different milestones, and not only have 234 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 1: they not had a you know, a significant break that's 235 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: stopped anything for a significant part of time. Then it's 236 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: six positives up in nearly sixty thousand tests. So from 237 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: that perspective, the next step is, Okay, you've been hitting, 238 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: you've been physical. Now what happens when you travel? That 239 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: obviously is going to be the most difficult part. Is 240 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: when you travel, you're going into a hotel room, you're 241 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: an airplane, all that kind of stuff. But if you're 242 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: following the protocols they set out, then you should be 243 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 1: in pretty you should be in pretty good shape. You 244 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: just got to hope that you don't have rookie cornerbacks 245 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: that are calling girls to their rooms like in Seattle. 246 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: Hopefully you won't have that happens. You cannot helpefully, cannot 247 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: have that. Yeah, apparently on planes. I've read stories that 248 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: on planes you are not likely to get it because 249 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: the filtration system is so good. I've heard that. Okay, 250 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: I gotta ask my dad. I mean, my dad's a 251 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: retired TWA captain. I mean, he should know this, and 252 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,719 Speaker 1: I need to call him anyway right now. I mean, 253 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: he's eighty seven years old. I gotta call him a 254 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: lot because you never know. But he's in great shape 255 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: and he could tell me a lot. I mean, whenever 256 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: I have airline questions, I asked him. So I don't 257 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: know why I have asked him yet, but apparently, I mean, 258 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: that's out there, that story is out there. The first 259 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: time I saw that story, I said, what really, really, 260 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: in a plane, you're not likely to get it. But 261 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: I guess I don't know. And that is that justifying 262 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: them part packing people in as sardines again the airlines? 263 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: Or is that just to you know, allay fears or 264 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: is it true? Apparently it's true, So that's great. Yeah. Well, 265 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: I mean with the other The other thought with airplanes 266 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: in NFL team travel is anybody that steps on an 267 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: airplane is a Tier one or Tier two employee team 268 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: plane on a team plane. So they've been they've been 269 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: tested every single day from the beginning of time. They're 270 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: all tested. The opponent put all negatives on a plane. 271 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: So again negative and negative makes a bigger negative. Now, 272 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: Jack Easterby might be joining us this morning. We hope 273 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: to get him on live. And he walks over here 274 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: a lot of days and talk to us and he's like, yeah, 275 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: you want me. I'm sure you know. So let's hope 276 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: that that he stops by. If he doesn't, will have 277 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: O'Brien live, So it's, you know, we win either way. 278 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: That'll be at about nine o'clock. Now, more from Bill 279 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: O'Brien here from the beginning of time here at Texans camp. 280 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: I mean in the Dom Capers days, the coaches used 281 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: to say this that they want the players to sort 282 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: of coach themselves, right, you want your players coaching each 283 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: other up. There's nothing more effective than that culture of 284 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: players helping other players, you know, Gary Kubiak, Rick Smith. 285 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: They used to tell me that all the time. We 286 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: want the players to coach the team. You know, that 287 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: really helps. Well. Bill O'Brien was asked about this kind 288 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: of phenomenon yesterday, and you were talking about this Randall 289 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: coop helping who cults are out? Yes, Brandon Cooks, Brandon 290 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: court yard line is pretty awesome watch helping colts are out, 291 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: things like that. What does Bill O'Brien say about players 292 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: helping other players. I was familiar with Brandon when he 293 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: came out in the draft twenty four team Jack easter 294 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: Be was in New England with him. I mean that's 295 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, obviously number one is the talent. You know, 296 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: he's a really good receiver, he's got speed, he's got 297 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: really good hands. Um, he's a strong player. Uh. And 298 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: then the other part of him knows that he's a 299 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: really good pro you know he Um, he just does 300 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: a good job of talking to the offense and especially 301 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: within that position of uh, you know, technique and and 302 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: and work ethic and how important it is to do 303 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: what's right on every route. You may not get the 304 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: ball every every single route, but you know, you've got 305 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: a great quarterback who's reading the defense and you gotta 306 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: you gotta be there, you gotta He's gotta trust it, 307 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna be where you're supposed to be. And he's 308 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: always helping. I think you see that on the offensive 309 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: line too, like Cookie was doing with with Isaiah. See, 310 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: you know, I see LT all the time taking a 311 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: rod or taking Charlie Heck behind the offense and kind 312 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: of hey, giving him some pointers on pass pro or 313 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: what they saw on up front. I mean, and you 314 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: can use that at every position, justin Reid in the 315 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: secondary and JJ upfront, Brandon Dunn up front. So I 316 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 1: think we've got a lot of guys like that, and 317 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, I believe in that shot. You guys know 318 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: that now. I believe in those type of players, and 319 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, I believe that that will lead to wins. 320 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: I believe in that. Okay, Well, there's Bill O'Brien talking 321 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: about players helping out other players, coaching each other up, 322 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: trying to get the whole product up. And I keep 323 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: coming back to this. They'll scrimmage Thursday night. It is 324 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: so strange to not have a look against any other opponent, 325 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: just yourself. Whitney Merciless joked with me that, Hey, and 326 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: I think we had this on the year yesterday perhaps 327 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: where he said that it would be nice to have 328 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: somebody who didn't know all his moves. And so let's 329 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: see what happens opening Day. Now, Opening Day is a night. 330 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: Of course, it's kick off for the entire league season. 331 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: It's against the Chiefs. Texans split with the Chiefs last year. 332 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: Of course, your wish to split was opposite that they 333 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: won the playoff game, but they did beat them in 334 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: the regular season. Now, I don't want to look at 335 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: that one, Johnny. You know a game I want to 336 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: look at as not really a blueprint necessarily, but this 337 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: can help you out. The Cults beating the Chiefs last year. 338 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: The week before, remember we saw that, We thought, oh man, 339 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,479 Speaker 1: they used the good mojo, they used the good functionay 340 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: of beating the Chiefs at Arrowhead. And now there's none left, right, 341 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: we gotta go in there. We're not gonna get it 342 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: done now, are we. You know this is me just 343 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: being a fan here, negative side of me. You know, 344 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: I did have some faith here, but you know, you 345 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: get my drifts here when you see that, you're like, 346 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna be upset. Now, they're gonna come out guns blazing. 347 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: Texans got the job done, of course, down fourteen points 348 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: in that game, they came back to beat Kansas City. 349 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: But the Colts game was very different. It was the 350 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: week before, and it was nineteen to thirteen. This is 351 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: a low scoring affair. And when you look at total yards, 352 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: the Chiefs only and this is a low number for them, 353 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: only had three hundred twenty four total yards. But it's 354 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: not like the Colts went nuts. They had three thirty one. 355 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: And you're thinking, well, they must have gotten a lot 356 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: of turnovers off Kansas City. No, each team had one 357 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: turnover in this one. Well, then what happened, Well, the 358 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: Cults were able to run the football ball one hundred 359 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: eighty yards. They did not throw it well, but they 360 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: ran the snot out of it into the two of 361 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: one eighty and a lot of carries forty five carries 362 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: Johnny so four point oh per pop. Forty five carries. 363 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: They kept that offense off the field. Now, I don't 364 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: know if the Texans are going to approach it that way. 365 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if it plays out that way. You know, 366 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: the ball is going to be in the air with 367 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans with this group. But I wanted to 368 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: get your thoughts on that. On that being sort of 369 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: a blueprint, even if it's a short passing game, keep 370 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: away situation. But here's the thing, you got to finish 371 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: these drives. I mean, you can't kick too many field 372 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: goals and hope you're gonna beat Kansas City. It kind 373 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: of reminds me of going up to Foxborough, you know, yeah, 374 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: where you just gotta score a touchdown. I mean you 375 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: have to be able to think, Yeah, that's the way 376 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: you have to think against the Chiefs. Now, one week later, 377 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: the Texans went to Kansas City. Let's see how similar 378 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: how many times a coltron forty five ye Texans ran 379 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: for ran forty one times, forty one carries forty one carries. Now, 380 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: one of the things I remember about that game distinctly 381 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: was that every time that hop had a catch, it 382 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: was a short gain. It was like Hop was an 383 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,719 Speaker 1: extension of the running he was a runner. Yeah, so 384 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: how many catches for hopin nine for fifty five yard? 385 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: Remember that. I remember that that was a low yard 386 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: per catch total. But they were chain moving receptions, yes 387 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: they that so, I mean of those, probably five to 388 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 1: seven were of a four or five yard variety that 389 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: act like the running game. So you got near that 390 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: forty five number, but you ran for one hundred and 391 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: ninety two. And the one thing I remember about that distinctly, 392 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: we were in halftime and at halftime the Texas had 393 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: taken the lead because their second quarter they just they 394 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 1: went nuts and they got that big o man who 395 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 1: fumble recovery or fourth fumble that Bmac recovered. At halftime 396 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: with the lead, I asked coach about, you know, offensively, 397 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: you know he got ann track and you know, hey, 398 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: the running game has really been working. He kind of 399 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: looked at me as he's wont to do at half time, 400 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: and he's like, you just kind of just spit it 401 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: back at me. He's like, Johnny, thirtieth ranked run defense 402 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: in the league. We got to continue to run the ball, 403 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: and we're running pretty well. We're just going to continue 404 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: to pound. So here's the other here's the other aspect 405 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: of this. How do you beat Patrick Mahomes and how 406 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 1: do you beat that that Chiefs team. One thing I 407 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: remembered distinctly about that game, and a lot of times 408 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: you don't make a whole lot of this, but in 409 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: this case, I think you do. The Texans time of 410 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: possession that game was thirty nine minutes and forty eight seconds, 411 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: almost forty minutes of time of possession. The Chiefs had 412 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: it for twenty minutes in twelve seconds. I remember the 413 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: fourth quarter of the the Chiefs had it for what one 414 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: little possession, right, And that's the one where Jacob Martin 415 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 1: hit the arm of Mahomes as you just trying to 416 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: convert a third down and the past went awry like 417 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: that does not show up in the stat sheet as 418 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: a sack, and he's going to the Pro Bowl. But 419 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: you know what, Martin made a huge play in that game. 420 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 1: What if that ball gets released cleanly? What if it's 421 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: a first down? Does history change? In that game? Every 422 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: play counts And that was a huge get off the 423 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: field count of play well to that end, you're right. 424 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: In the third quarter they ran six plays three out, 425 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: three and out. They got five penalty yards on the 426 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:40,479 Speaker 1: first drive, they got minus three net yards. On the 427 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: next drive they gained two. They gained two yards and 428 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 1: that only came about on penalties. In the fourth quarter. Meanwhile, 429 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: the Texans, Holy smokes, we talked about that time of possession. 430 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: Listen to this first quarter, twelve play drive, second quarter 431 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: a ten play and a twelve play drive, third quarter 432 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: ten play, eleven play drive, fourth quarter twelve plays, one 433 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: hundred three yards minus ten for penalties, ninety three net yards, 434 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: ended with a touchdown, and then the last drive was 435 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: nine for forty two and that was the end of 436 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: the game. The fourth twenty one plays in the fourth 437 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: quarter to their six overall twenty one. Let's see twenty one, 438 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: thirty two, forty two. You're in forty two plays in 439 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: the second half to their sixteen. Yeah, oh, I mean 440 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: the domination to year point. The Texans took that Colts model, 441 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: replicated the next week and did the Colts one better 442 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: by scoring thirty one and probably could have scored a 443 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: few more because you threw an interception in one end zone. 444 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: And then the last drive, if you go another five minutes, 445 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: you probably get another touchdown. How many rushing yards for 446 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: the Texans? And one ninety was that net let's see, jeez, yeah, 447 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: net one ninety two. All right, so the US are 448 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 1: looking at that like, all right, back to back weeks, 449 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: we gave up one eighty to the Colts, we gave 450 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: up one ninety plus to the Texans. But we're gonna 451 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl anyway. NFL is weird Man and 452 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien says, it's to get better league. Make no mistake, children, 453 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: it's a get better league. What did the Chiefs do 454 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 1: last year? They got better? I mean right there those 455 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: two games, Mahomes is banged up. Eventually Mahomes has to 456 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: leave and Matt Moore has to play for them. They're 457 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: giving up rushing yards like they're going out of style. 458 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: But they get their act together for the postseason. They 459 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: trailed all three games and they win the Super Bowl. 460 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: It can happen a variety of ways. I'm starting to 461 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: feel the game day angst, Johnny, I'm starting to feel it. 462 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: It's coming up. Yeah. I mean the other thing about 463 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs, you know, for them, I mean I remember 464 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: distinctly at twenty four to seven, you threw it down. 465 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean I said, look, the one thing, and I 466 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: was thinking back the week six, the one thing that 467 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: Texas were able to do is once they got the ball, 468 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: they essentially became like the driver who gets in the 469 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: left hand lane and goes sixty five speed limit the 470 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: whole way when the guy behind him wants to go nine. 471 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: They just kind of they just kind of controlled the pace, 472 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: you know, in a Week six game, and it was 473 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: like the Patriots got anxious and then it turned into 474 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: be a great result because in the second half they 475 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: just were you know, especially the fourth quarter, because they 476 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,719 Speaker 1: had ten play drive that went and scored a touchdown 477 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: that gave them the lead at twenty four twenty three. 478 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: But what happened at twenty four to seven in the 479 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 1: playoff game was we needed to pound and pound. Now 480 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: they were a little bit better against the run in 481 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: the playoff game, I will say that they were. They 482 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: you could tell the defense is much improved. But still 483 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: if you could have taken a clock killing drive and 484 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: just just taken off chunks of yards, you had what 485 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: ten minutes left, you take off a five minute drive 486 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: and they's just say you even kick a field goal, 487 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: but just you take a five minutes of clock time, 488 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: but you have just gotten into left lane and just 489 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: halted them a little bit. So all that momentum they 490 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,719 Speaker 1: had after the Mikol Hardman return and then the touchdown, 491 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 1: you just have stolen it all away from them. And 492 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: then you go put say three hundred board and now 493 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: it's twenty seven to seven. The clock has obviously come down. 494 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: Your defense, said an opportunity to rest and the way 495 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: you go that would have been that to me, would 496 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: have been the key. But Kansas City was much better 497 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: against the run in the playoff game than they had 498 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: been and then even proved that against Derrick Henry the 499 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: next week. They showed you Titans have been relying on 500 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. They tried to go to the well and 501 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: he really really kind of slowed him down. And even 502 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 1: though they got behind in that game because they slowed Henry, 503 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: the Titans were going three and out and they kept 504 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 1: giving the ball back to the Chiefs and they weren't 505 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: going to stop the Chiefs. But Andy Reid can't win 506 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: a big playoff game. Okay, that's what they said, I mean, 507 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: And that's what his record with the Chiefs in the 508 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: playoffs going into last year was two and five with 509 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. Two and five in the playoffs with the Chiefs, 510 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: Andy Reid. However, last year it all worked out. Okay, 511 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: next up, we've been evaluating position groups and we have 512 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: not gotten to the quarterbacks yet, Johnny, and I'm familiar 513 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: with some of the names on the quarterbacks list, And 514 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: what about the guy they cut before camp?

It's another 604 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: Greenbriar type day out here at the Houston Methodist Training 605 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: Center for now, and easy for me to say because 606 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: I'm not wearing a full football uniform and doing exercising things, Johnny, 607 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: but it is a beautiful day here, and it's great 608 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: to have you listening to Texans training camp live. And 609 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: every day we've been evaluating a position group, and for 610 00:30:56,400 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: the first time we will get to the quarterbacks. Johnny, 611 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna save the best for the last, and I 612 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: think the last and I think everybody understands who that is. 613 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the third guy. Actually, do you 614 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: remember the name of the guy they cut before camp? Yeah? Tiano? Nicktiano. 615 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Nicktiano. And the reason why they didn't bring 616 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: four is because there's no way Nick Tiana was gonna 617 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: get reps. I mean, and you're down to eighty, so 618 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: come on, you only have limited amount of time for 619 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: the third guy. Alex McGoo anyway, right, yeah, and that 620 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: was I mean, that was pretty much the reason I 621 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: would think, you know, you knew, you knew. He's a 622 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: bit of a project. Anyways, he's six four two thirty 623 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: you throw it, I mean, but that's central casting right there, 624 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 1: six four two thirty strong arm. But he also ran 625 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: for five hundred yards da Immediately my thought was Taysom Hill, Yeah, 626 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: that would be kind of fun, but you only have 627 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: so much time to kind of tinker with something like that. 628 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: So you get down to eighty, you feel pretty confident 629 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: in what you have an Alex McGoo and you go 630 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: from there because I don't you know, Alex McGoo is 631 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: no Taysom Hill like size wise or anything like that. 632 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: But guy's a really good athlete. I mean just watching 633 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: him run on the field, watching him roll out of 634 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: the pocket if he gets pressure, those kind of things, 635 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: and he throws it. Man, Alex made a throw yesterday. 636 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: They were down on the goal line and they add 637 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: some some time left because of the first two groups, 638 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: I think de Sean got it in the end zone. 639 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: A J group did not, and so they had a 640 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: few reps remaining, and coach called up the threes and 641 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: he said, all right, let's go. In the first play. 642 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: I can't remember having a first play. Oh oh, they fumbled. 643 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: They botched a snap. Oh I forgot to put in observations. Anyways, 644 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 1: they botched the snap. Huggy Bear Albert Huggins picked it 645 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: up rand the other way would have been a may 646 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: probably would have been a touchdown, but who knows. He's 647 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: a good an athlete. He would have made it. But 648 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: Magoo can run anyways, So the next play he drops 649 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,719 Speaker 1: back and I'm I'm on the left side. I can 650 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: see Steve, like in my out of my peripheral I 651 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: can see Stevie coming across, and I'm like, that's that's 652 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,959 Speaker 1: where you should throw it. And I mean he just 653 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: in a pocket and he zipped it and there wasn't 654 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: a lot of room in there and Stevie he stuck 655 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: it right on him. And I was like, wow, because 656 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: we really haven't a chance to see Alex throw the 657 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: ball really yeah. I mean, you know, he didn't get 658 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: he didn't get here last year until the season, so 659 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: we didn't I mean, we don't get to see practice. 660 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: We just get activation, so we didn't get to really 661 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: see him do anything. But now in this training camp, 662 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: we would have been able to see him to do 663 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: it a few things. So that was the one question 664 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: I had was Okay, the athleticism there, Like you just 665 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: see him run around and they'll just mess around, will 666 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: be throwing passes in one another and you see him 667 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: kind of messed around, You're like, is that that good receiver? 668 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: And you realize it's Alex. So he can do some 669 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: things athletically, but man, he showed the arm yesterday. I 670 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: think he is the perfect kind of number three option. 671 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: You know, he's kind of a mini Joe Webb. Now, 672 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he would ever put him out at 673 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: receiver because your receiver depth is pretty darn good. But 674 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: he's kind an athlete that if you put him out there, 675 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: he probably would run around and catch it. I mean, 676 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: because he can run a little bit. But I think 677 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: he's the perfect number three, just the guy you can 678 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: continue to mold. You hope you don't have to use them, 679 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: but you just year after year you kind of continue 680 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: to let him grow and you know, who know, who knows. 681 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: You know, down the road, he's a four or five 682 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: year guy in the NFL and he's still maybe he's 683 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: still here, maybe not, who knows. But to me, I 684 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: think he's perfect for this squad right now because he's 685 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,359 Speaker 1: still a guy you can develop at number three. You 686 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: have a reliable number two, and then obviously you have 687 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: one of the best quarterbacks number one. Wait, Johnny, do 688 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: you take the risk and put him on the practice 689 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: squad unprotected or does he have to eat up one 690 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: of those four protected spots You need to protect him. 691 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 1: You got to protect to protect him. Yeah, there's no question. 692 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we've seen it over the years, 693 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: your quarterbacks getting hurt um and then this year and 694 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 1: put this year in particular, my goodness. I mean, yes, Look, 695 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: there are quarterbacks throughout this league that have experience in 696 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,959 Speaker 1: this Texan system. There are a lot of them still 697 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: in this league. A couple out of the league. I 698 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: don't think you'll ever bring back, but I think there 699 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: are a few that are in the league that you 700 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: could bring back if you had to, because that's the 701 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: main thing. Can you can you give them a you know, 702 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: some of this offense if something happened, and I think 703 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 1: with Alex you just continue to teach him that. But 704 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: you want to keep you You want to keep a 705 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: guy around, especially if he's got some developmental possibilities, which 706 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: I think he does, and he knows your offense. At 707 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: least he's been here now two years. You should know 708 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: at least the basics to go into a game and 709 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: keep things going in a positive direction. So I think 710 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: you have to protect him because I think as soon 711 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: as you don't, some of the teams like, well take him. 712 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: So I think you have to protect him. Yeah. Well 713 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 1: here's the other thing though, If God forbids something happened, knock, 714 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: would knock whatever you can. You would go out and 715 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: get another backup quarterback. You'd play McCarron and get another 716 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: backup and keep McGoo anyway, because he's that kind of 717 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: insurance project whatever. And here's another question for you. If 718 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: something were to happen, and I hate talking about this, 719 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 1: but Yates being a Tier one guy, not that you 720 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 1: would not that you would go there you were going. 721 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,720 Speaker 1: You wouldn't have to put him through all the testing, 722 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: would you, because he gets tested every day anyway, So 723 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: you could just put him on the field and work 724 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,720 Speaker 1: him out as long as he's tier one, because everybody 725 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: in Tier one has the same he's tier one's he's 726 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 1: a coach, so and he's that's not gonna happen. Oh 727 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: my gosh, Okay, whoa could you imagine the Disney movie 728 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: you could make? Oh if t J. Yates no waiting 729 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: to Cincinnati, we play Cincinnati, play him, play him going there. 730 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 1: You see we get ask to move the game. I'm 731 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: not disappointed that's not gonna happen. Okay, all right. AJ 732 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,879 Speaker 1: McCarron in his seventh year, already out of Bama. He's 733 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: twenty nine years old. He's been around the block a 734 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: little bit. He's played a few games in this league, 735 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: and he played that regular season finale last year. Hey, 736 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: they scored a touchdown in the opening drive for the 737 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 1: first time in the season with McCarron at the helm. 738 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: So that now they did that in Kansas City too, 739 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: by the way, But what do you think of McCarron 740 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: so far? Mccaron started that trend. Yeah, he started the trend. Hey, 741 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: you didn't scoring the first drive didn't hold against Buffalo. 742 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: It was two out of three though, Oh that's right, 743 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: that's right, that's that's truef forgot about How could you 744 00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: forget the Buffalo game? Um, you know with mccaron, to me, 745 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: it's just steady, you know. With with Aj, I think 746 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 1: you know we've seen I mean, it's it's tough because 747 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,479 Speaker 1: you're comparing him to Shaun Watson. But you know, AJ 748 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 1: started in this league. He started a playoff game and 749 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: it was a playoff game the Bengals should have won. 750 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: He should have got another start in twenty fifteen. But 751 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: Vonta's perfect happened, so that was not good. And pac 752 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: Man Jones happened, and no, it's not good. So he 753 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: would have got another playoff win, another playoff game in 754 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,720 Speaker 1: that particular season, but didn't get it because of mistakes, 755 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: and I hate that for him. But the one thing 756 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: I I found out last year about AJ which I 757 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: probably I probably knew, but maybe he didn't grasp it 758 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: as much. But I was talking to the locker room 759 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: after that game and he had taken a hit and 760 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: I saw him kid up kind of slow, and I 761 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: saw him kind of reach first back at one point, 762 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: and I was just like, whoa, And as I asked 763 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: what happened on a hit, and he goes, Oh, he 764 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,399 Speaker 1: hit me and he need me in the back, he goes, 765 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 1: But I felt it among the other side of my chest. 766 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, he goes, you would have had 767 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 1: taken me out of there with a forklift. You would 768 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: never get me out of that game. I was just 769 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 1: I was just having so much fun. I mean, see, 770 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: if you agree with this, he just wanted to play. 771 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,959 Speaker 1: He was amazing. He's yeah, I mean, obviously he's gonna 772 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: take advantage of that opportunity. Johnny. See, if you agree 773 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: with this, he's at least as good as any other 774 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 1: backup you've had out here in the O'Brien, Arrow and 775 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,360 Speaker 1: some of the starters. I mean, I would say almost 776 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: every other starter. Maybe not Fitz he when Fitz he's 777 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: really hot, but maybe if if mccaren would get that 778 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: kind of opportunity, Yeah, you know mccaren, you know, he 779 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: could still be the Bengals quarterback if Andy never came back. 780 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 1: He might have been the Bills quarterback today, if he 781 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 1: never got hurt in Buffalo. Yeah, I mean, I don't 782 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: disagree with you at all. I mean I used to 783 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: think when when Aj signed here in nineteen, I was like, you, 784 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 1: weren't Aj done with us in twenty fifteen? Yeah, if 785 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: Aj had had a full year with US in twenty fifteen, 786 00:38:58,000 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: he would have started, because everybody that was a quarter 787 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: back seemingly in twenty fifteen and started for US. I 788 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: think he would have done some good things with US 789 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. No, I'm not saying five years later his 790 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: skills have diminished or whatever, but he's just at this 791 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: point I think he is now what he is, and 792 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:18,959 Speaker 1: that is a really solid, reliable back up with the Sean. Now, 793 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: if you if the thing that AJ's never had, which 794 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: I hate for him now, he went to Buffalo and 795 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,240 Speaker 1: obviously got hurt and then that opportunity and went awry. 796 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 1: But he never really had the opportunity to build on 797 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: it in Cincinnati because they don't came back in twenty sixteen, 798 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 1: and Aja backed him up at that point. I just 799 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: never really had an opportunity to do it week in 800 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: week out. And so the things that you see with 801 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: AJ hold them all a little bit too long, maybe 802 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: taking a millisecond too long to read things that maybe 803 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: he should do a little bit quicker. Some of those things, 804 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: I think you can overcome as you do it more often. 805 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: And I think AJ would have been one of those guys. 806 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he was kind of that way at Alabama. 807 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: You know, each year that he was entrenched as the starter, 808 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 1: he got better and better and better. And and by 809 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: the time in twenty thirteen that he was at Alabama, 810 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: I mean I saw him played a and M and 811 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 1: I just I was he made a throw towards me. 812 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: I was standing right to basically the corner pylon, and 813 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: he threw a back shoulder ball to his receiver Norwood 814 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: and Nordon went up and got it. But I was like, man, 815 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: that's a great throw. And he did it all day 816 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: Now I'll say what you will about that AM defense. 817 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: Back then it wasn't great, but still I started looking 818 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,439 Speaker 1: at going, man, this guy could play. He's got something there. 819 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,360 Speaker 1: Now he just kind of sits kind of a borderlines, 820 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 1: kind of like this hurricane. You're gonna go one way, 821 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna go the other. He kind of sits right 822 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: in that line. I think that's the thing. He's better 823 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,359 Speaker 1: than most of the backups that you have out there. 824 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: But is that really got that chance to show that 825 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: he can he can start. You know, Brock got that opportunity. Yeah, 826 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: a little bit longer than AJ got it. You know, 827 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: in Denver he got a seven to eight game run. 828 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: I had a lot of success, and that opened up 829 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: opportunities elsewhere. You know, if AJ, God forbid this happens. Now, 830 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: if AJ had five to seven game run here, I 831 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 1: think there might be some team going, hey, you know what, Yeah, 832 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: let's do it. Let's go. But you know, God forbid 833 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: that happens. I agree, that's what's eluded AJA. Unfortunately, he 834 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: could do well in that scenario, but we don't want 835 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,760 Speaker 1: to see that scenario. Okay, Coming up, it's year four 836 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: of Deshaun Watson in Houston, what does he look like 837 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:22,919 Speaker 1: in camp?

You know, we really 987 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 1: missed the fans coming out here and hearing people yelling 988 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: and screaming for their Texans and being excited for training camp. 989 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,320 Speaker 1: It's a right to passage. Astros are playing baseball pockets 990 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs and then a chance for training camp 991 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: to go really well with excitement. Yeah, I think in 992 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: all these situations, we've been blessed with really good people 993 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 1: here in Houston where we rally up. You know, we've 994 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:15,000 Speaker 1: been doing a little different type meetings with our emergency 995 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 1: crisis teams relative to ZOOM and getting on there and 996 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,879 Speaker 1: jumping on there with plans things that could potentially help 997 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 1: us stay safe in this type of situation. We did 998 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 1: that with COVID, so we've got a little bit of 999 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,879 Speaker 1: practice with how we should handle these things. And we've 1000 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 1: been talking every night about what we should do if 1001 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,399 Speaker 1: Laura comes this way, and definitely praying for all those 1002 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,600 Speaker 1: who will be affected by this, and I hoping it 1003 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,399 Speaker 1: misses us, but we're taking it very seriously and we're 1004 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: prepared for lots of different things that could happen. So 1005 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 1: really the goal is just to always live track, you know, 1006 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 1: what's going on, whether it's weather or it's something else, 1007 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: and then also to have plans, have plans on a 1008 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 1: bunch of different directions. So we've got that done. Jack. 1009 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:57,280 Speaker 1: When you see offense versus defense out here, full pads, 1010 00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: they're going at it hard. How do you look at that? 1011 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 1: Because sometimes we'll see a big play and it's got 1012 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 1: to be like watching your kids play it away, like, oh, 1013 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 1: that was really good, but you need to work on 1014 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:09,919 Speaker 1: what you did to allow that in the first place. 1015 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 1: So how do you handle that doing what you do well? 1016 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,280 Speaker 1: I think what you really are looking for is within 1017 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: each practice you have emphasis, right, you have certain things 1018 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: you're trying to really look for points or purposes of 1019 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: each drill or each period, And so I think the 1020 00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 1: goal is to try to make sure the purpose of 1021 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: that drill that the team knows, that the players individually 1022 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: know that, and then the person who you're trying to 1023 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: get it to execute something is executing that, hopefully at 1024 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,919 Speaker 1: a high level, which will hopefully correlate with their job. Right. 1025 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't just say each play, right, you take 1026 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: a positive and the negative. You're really looking for a 1027 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 1: period by period and relative to the emphasis, because there's 1028 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 1: some that are more offensively focused, right, and there's some 1029 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 1: that are more defensively focused. And then you have special 1030 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 1: teams things you're working on specifically to try to create 1031 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: in certain looks and things. So I think Texans win 1032 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 1: every day, right, can't play with each other. But I 1033 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: think for this focus right now. It's been incredibly unique, 1034 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,920 Speaker 1: right with no preseason games and then obviously no offseason. 1035 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 1: You know, the install has been in because our coaches 1036 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: have done a great job on zoom and done a 1037 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: great job of educating the guys on things in the 1038 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 1: hypothetical or watching film of last year, but getting out 1039 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 1: here and actually doing it. So there's been a lot 1040 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,360 Speaker 1: of times where we're looking, as you just said, for 1041 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 1: everything on the field to be right because we have 1042 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 1: a shorter bandwidth here to try to get this done. Jack, 1043 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: Thursday night, the scrimmage over at the stadium. How important 1044 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: is an event I say event air quotes an event 1045 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 1: like that to kind of show guys that haven't been there, 1046 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 1: to remind guys that have been here kind of the 1047 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 1: process of going through because you want to have in 1048 00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,760 Speaker 1: preseason games. That's when you kind of learned here's the process. 1049 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: You don't really have to show anybody because you're do 1050 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: in preseason game one, you do two and three and four. 1051 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: Now you're ready for week one, but you won't have that. 1052 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 1: So how important is a night like Thursday become for 1053 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 1: these players? Well, it's very important because I think one 1054 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 1: of the things that you do when you build a team, 1055 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:01,439 Speaker 1: is you have to think about parties that are coming 1056 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,240 Speaker 1: from all different directions. Right, So when you build a team, 1057 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,680 Speaker 1: you have to always think about how those different people 1058 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: who are coming here, whether it's from the draft or 1059 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 1: from free agency, or potentially a new coach who we added, 1060 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: or potentially maybe just a new method that we're adding, 1061 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 1: all those things kind of merge together when you have 1062 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: your first preseason game and then your first game, right, 1063 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: and so for a scrimmage, you're really looking for those 1064 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: things to kind of first the first time, let's say 1065 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: those can merge together. Right, You're looking for how you 1066 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,919 Speaker 1: do warm ups, You're looking for which each person's role 1067 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 1: is on the sideline or and operationally during the game 1068 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: to make sure you're successful. And then also you're starting 1069 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 1: to kind of see what those roles will look like, 1070 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 1: you know, when we're really counting on it Thursday night 1071 00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: against the Chiefs. So I think it's a very important exercise. Force. 1072 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: I know a lot of teams are doing them around 1073 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:49,239 Speaker 1: the league just to kind of gain some rhythm as 1074 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,480 Speaker 1: a team and as a unit to see where everybody is. 1075 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: But I think it's extremely important, and you don't really know, 1076 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: until you know, you get out there and do it 1077 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: for real and bullets start flying, things start really happening 1078 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. But we've got a lot of retention, 1079 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of continuity in our in our groups. 1080 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: So I think hopefully that'll be an advantage for us 1081 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: going forward. Jack, what about taking the team on the road. 1082 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a couple of weeks until you do that, 1083 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 1: and I know there's a lot of preparation you need 1084 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: to do. You've been able to handle things very well 1085 00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: here in your building on your facilities campus, but what 1086 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,359 Speaker 1: about going on the road and the challenge is there, Well, 1087 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 1: y'all know by now, you know, I always try to 1088 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 1: see it half full. I'm I think we're blessed here 1089 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: to have obviously a great organization, great leadership, and so 1090 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: as I looked at the first game on the road 1091 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 1: that I was like, you know, maybe we could start 1092 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 1: a place that we went somewhere a couple of times 1093 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 1: last year, you know, But anyway, it was a blessing 1094 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 1: to know the hotel, to know the environment we're in, 1095 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: to know those locker rooms well, to know the setup 1096 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: of that whole stadium and be able to and obviously 1097 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: I've been there a ton of times, so I think 1098 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,399 Speaker 1: we feel pretty comfortable with that going on the road. 1099 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: I think they'll be different things for the players as 1100 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 1: they try to learn their daily routine and their pregame routine, 1101 00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 1: relatively socially distancing on the buses and having to spread 1102 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:07,359 Speaker 1: out the times when they enter the locker room and 1103 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,440 Speaker 1: some of those types of things. So there'll be some 1104 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 1: differences that they'll learn. But we're gonna go through some 1105 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 1: of those as we prepare for the scrimmage, so they 1106 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: should have some of those vetted and personally. And then 1107 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: the rest of it, you know, I think because we've 1108 00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: done so much work on the front side, and we've 1109 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 1: practiced and we've done these things, I think the rest 1110 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: of it is the newness of playing a competitive football game, right, 1111 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,200 Speaker 1: just getting used to that, right, because you just again 1112 00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 1: you're used to some scrimmages or potentially some maybe some 1113 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:41,879 Speaker 1: franchise on franchise scrimmages, or potentially some obviously some preseason games, 1114 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: and so not having done that, I think that's the 1115 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:47,319 Speaker 1: biggest challenge. Yeah, I don't think you're saying question Jack, Yes, 1116 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: you're no Sunday stand right over here, saw Isaiah Coulter 1117 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:53,319 Speaker 1: runner route down the field and as he walked back 1118 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: over saw Brandon Cooks walk over to him. Spend maybe 1119 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,400 Speaker 1: two three minutes. It wasn't as if Coulter went to Cooks, 1120 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,880 Speaker 1: Cooks went to Folter. I've seen Laramie throughout camp. I 1121 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 1: don't know that when he's not in a rep, I 1122 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 1: don't see him talking to one of the offensive lineman 1123 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 1: Max Sharping and coaches talked about this a veteran team, 1124 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: you know, in a really odd year. From what from 1125 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 1: your standpoint, the leadership that you're seeing from your veterans, 1126 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 1: How does that make you and the staff feel about 1127 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,759 Speaker 1: what you have with this squad in twenty twenty. Yeah, no, 1128 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,839 Speaker 1: that's a great question. I think you have to have leaders, right. 1129 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:29,280 Speaker 1: But leaders are not just leaders by position, but meaning 1130 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 1: that they maybe make the most or maybe they've made 1131 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: a bunch of plays in the past. Leaders are leaders 1132 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,880 Speaker 1: by actions right. How you act right. You can, you know, 1133 00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 1: put somebody a sea on their chest, or you can, 1134 00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 1: you know, celebrate them in the media or publicly. But 1135 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: it's really about how to act day to day. And 1136 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 1: so I think what we've seen in camp so far, 1137 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:47,719 Speaker 1: and I think Texas fans should be very excited about 1138 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 1: is we've had some very intentional actions done by players 1139 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 1: to invest in each other. Things they're in, you know, 1140 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: separate locker rooms are spread out. We have guys that 1141 00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 1: are leaving notes for other guys. We have guys starting 1142 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 1: chats and texting each other, and we have guys watching 1143 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,240 Speaker 1: extra film after the coordinators have done at night together. 1144 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: And then to your point, on the field, while they're 1145 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 1: rallied up, we got guys sharing veteran experience saying, hey man, 1146 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 1: last year when we played here, we saw this, or 1147 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 1: hey you, they might give you this look, but it 1148 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 1: doesn't really look like that. And so the quicker that 1149 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 1: we can use the veteran wisdom that we have and 1150 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,919 Speaker 1: try to, you know, disseminate that information to the other guys. 1151 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a hopefully a competitive 1152 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,000 Speaker 1: advantage for us, especially with leadership. So we're real pleased 1153 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: with what we got so far and hopefully more of 1154 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 1: that to come as the season unfolds. Right, and we 1155 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 1: get that feedback attitude is a competitive advantage, that's right. 1156 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 1: That's ah, that's a T shirt. Believe to take it 1157 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 1: about that the whole time, especially with kids on zoom 1158 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 1: class at home.

Bill O'Brien is speaking with the media 1210 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 1: Joined in progress. I think primarily he's an outside corner, 1211 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,240 Speaker 1: but you know, you know, last year, he did some 1212 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 1: different things. I mean, he'll help us on special teams. 1213 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 1: I think it's week to week, you know, we we 1214 01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 1: we've got to look at the opponent and see where 1215 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:04,960 Speaker 1: Lonnie's skill set it's the best relative to how we 1216 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: want to play that opponent. I mean, he does a 1217 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 1: lot of things. Well, he's a he's a good guy. 1218 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 1: He works really hard, and he's got good size. He's 1219 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 1: kind of a unique skill set, right, so he can 1220 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 1: do some different things. And I think the big thing 1221 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,800 Speaker 1: with Lonnie's health making sure he stays healthy. Just like 1222 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 1: pretty much everybody, that's a key. But if he stays healthy, 1223 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:28,440 Speaker 1: he'll he'll have a good year. Force If you have 1224 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:32,080 Speaker 1: an update on Keiki Qt and what's been keeping him 1225 01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 1: from practice in the past few days, and also John Arnar, yeah, 1226 01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: I would say that Kiki. You know, we're just watching 1227 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 1: him a little bit. I don't want to get into 1228 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 1: the details because you know, we're only two weeks out 1229 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: from the game. Kiki's having a good camp. I think 1230 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 1: relative to ramp up again, that's gonna be my general 1231 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 1: answer to to injury questions. You know, it's just a 1232 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:54,240 Speaker 1: different type of ramp up for different guys. And sorry, 1233 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: I can't be more specific about it. I just can. 1234 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: I just don't believe him being real specific about injuries 1235 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 1: as you know for seven years. So, um, you know. 1236 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 1: The other one is who John Grenard? Yeah? John. John's 1237 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 1: doing all right, John. He's hanging in there. He'll be 1238 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:16,919 Speaker 1: out there eventually. Aaron raies, Oh, we can't hear you, Aaron. Mark. 1239 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 1: We'll go to you and come back to Aaron. Mark Burman, Hey, Bill, 1240 01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:25,080 Speaker 1: how are you? Hey? Mark? Bill? I need to I 1241 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 1: need to ask you a couple of non football questions. 1242 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,440 Speaker 1: First of all, you people in your position around the country, 1243 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,439 Speaker 1: some of them are speaking out expressing their feelings about 1244 01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 1: what happened the tragedy of Wisconsin. What are your whatever, 1245 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 1: some of your thoughts about that. You know, it's uh, 1246 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 1: it's it's hard to put into words. I mean, you 1247 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 1: know you you're trying to you know, primary primarily right now, 1248 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 1: Mark coaching the football team right working really nineteen hours 1249 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 1: a day coaching the team. But when I went home 1250 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: last night, I actually saw it for the first time 1251 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 1: i'd heard about it, saw the video. I mean, it's disturbing, 1252 01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: it's it's terrible. Um, I don't want to really get 1253 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: into politics. I think you guys know where I stand 1254 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 1: on this. I think that systemic racism is a major 1255 01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,960 Speaker 1: problem in this country, and I think that we all 1256 01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 1: have to come together and realize that this has been 1257 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 1: these these social injustices have been going on for for 1258 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: for a long time, long long time. And it's not 1259 01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 1: just police, that's one thing I want to make clear. 1260 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,959 Speaker 1: It's it's it's been going on on a long time 1261 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:34,360 Speaker 1: in our economic system and our real estate system, and 1262 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: our medical system and everything, and it's time to come 1263 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: together and realize that everybody should be treated as equal. 1264 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 1: And that's how I feel about it. But my primary 1265 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 1: job is to coach the football team. I mean, you know, 1266 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 1: I just I do feel passionately about these things. And 1267 01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:55,680 Speaker 1: that was a awful thing to watch. You obviously are 1268 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 1: getting the updates on Hurricane Laura, and it seems to 1269 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,920 Speaker 1: be headed more toward our area. How is that affecting 1270 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:05,040 Speaker 1: your call on Wednesday, especially Thursday from your scrimmage or 1271 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 1: is it too early to even Yeah, it's hard, you know, 1272 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 1: you're right, I mean, but I'm looking at two different models. 1273 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 1: Now we're going from you know, it's funny, we're going 1274 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 1: these are two off the off the football subject question. 1275 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 1: You're right, but now I'm looking at a European model 1276 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 1: and I'm looking at this other model, and that you know, 1277 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:21,439 Speaker 1: I'm like, which model do you? I mean, I don't 1278 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 1: even like one. One looks like it's headed towards Louisiana. 1279 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 1: We're on the west of it. We stay on the 1280 01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,440 Speaker 1: west of it. Maybe we'll be okay. But last time 1281 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: I checked, I didn't have a degree in meteorology, so 1282 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know, but we're definitely watching it. 1283 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 1: We had a phone call last night, Jack and I 1284 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: had a phone call last night with Jamie Roots and 1285 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 1: Susie Thomas and Jeff Schmidt's and great Condrids, and you know, 1286 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,920 Speaker 1: we're on top of it, and uh, you know, we'll 1287 01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:52,320 Speaker 1: make a call when we have to make the call. 1288 01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 1: I think this one's different than Harvey, right, you guys 1289 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 1: probably know better because it's more about wind, and Harvey 1290 01:04:57,600 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: was about rain. So I think the wind is a 1291 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:02,400 Speaker 1: is an issue relative to our bubble and things like that, 1292 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 1: so we'll stay on top of it. Three more Greg Bailey, 1293 01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:10,920 Speaker 1: Hey Bill, I'm just a similar question about this and 1294 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,480 Speaker 1: how important is the Thursday scrimmage to you in your 1295 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 1: development in this very strange setting of of of a 1296 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,200 Speaker 1: ramp up to a season, it could you reschedule that 1297 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 1: if Laura forced the team to books boom, Yeah, I 1298 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 1: mean you definitely could reschedule it. I think it's important. 1299 01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: I think it's just that, you know, I think you 1300 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,440 Speaker 1: have to without preseason games in my opinion, just for 1301 01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:35,440 Speaker 1: our football team, what's best for our teams to have 1302 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 1: two of these scrimmages, you know, at least one of 1303 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 1: these full pads where you know, we warm up like 1304 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,080 Speaker 1: a game, We treat it as much like a game 1305 01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:46,760 Speaker 1: as we possibly can. Coaches in the press box and 1306 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:50,880 Speaker 1: kind of go through all that the the you know, 1307 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 1: basically the logistics of a game. And so you know, 1308 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:56,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna try to do We're gonna try 1309 01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 1: to keep it for Thursday. Obviously if the weather affects that, 1310 01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 1: we'll just move it back with you're out another day 1311 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 1: to do it. Hey Bell, can you read the sun? Yep? Here? Okay? 1312 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:11,800 Speaker 1: Without contact on like a punt return without preseason games, 1313 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 1: is that at all harder to evaluate what you have there? 1314 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 1: The punt return when you know, guys know they're catching 1315 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 1: it and no one's gonna light them up around and 1316 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 1: full seed, I would say that's the same every year. 1317 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 1: I mean, you're not gonna really I know, I think 1318 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 1: you're talking about preseason games, but in practice you're never 1319 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,560 Speaker 1: really gonna go live on a kickoff or a punt. 1320 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 1: But yes, you do get it in the preseason game, 1321 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,920 Speaker 1: so you do, You're right about that. But yeah, I mean, 1322 01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 1: I think we have guy back there, DeAndre Carr, who's 1323 01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:38,560 Speaker 1: done it before. We got Random Cobb, Will Fuller, U 1324 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:42,240 Speaker 1: Kiki's done it, John Reid did it in college. I mean, 1325 01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:44,440 Speaker 1: we've got it. We got guys that we have you know, 1326 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 1: quote unquote video evidence of them being able to do it, 1327 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,760 Speaker 1: so you know, I'm just as on as their work. 1328 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 1: I think the big thing is catching in the technique 1329 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:55,080 Speaker 1: of catching it, reading the trajectory of the punt. That's 1330 01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: the big thing that you're trying to get out of 1331 01:06:56,760 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 1: practice relative to the returner himself. That's fun for John Bill. 1332 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:05,160 Speaker 1: If you do, indeed have to make adjustments because of 1333 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:08,520 Speaker 1: the hurricane, how much will that set you back considering 1334 01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 1: you start sooner than other teams other than the Chiefs. Yeah, 1335 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,240 Speaker 1: I mean it is what it is, right, I mean, 1336 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:15,880 Speaker 1: there's not too much you can do about it. I 1337 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,439 Speaker 1: wouldn't look at it as a setback. You know, we've 1338 01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 1: we've had good hard practices. Um, no one wants to 1339 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 1: go through a hurricane, you know, but I mean if 1340 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,600 Speaker 1: if something like that happens, we just adjust and adapt. 1341 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,640 Speaker 1: I mean that's two thousand and twenty, right, I mean, 1342 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 1: I mean this is like typical for two thousand and twenty. Right, 1343 01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 1: you got you got all these things going on, and 1344 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:38,320 Speaker 1: now you got a hurricane. I mean, it is what 1345 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 1: it is. You just you just adjust, you adapt, Jack 1346 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 1: and I call it stick and move, stick and move man. 1347 01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:45,400 Speaker 1: You know, this is what it is. And if we 1348 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,280 Speaker 1: get a hurricane, it's terrible, but we just adjust our 1349 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,000 Speaker 1: schedule and these guys, you know, we'll have the team 1350 01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 1: ready to go. Thank you, Thank you guys. That's for 1351 01:07:56,960 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien. Bill O'Brien meeting with the media this morning 1352 01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 1: pre practice press conferences, which have been really cool for 1353 01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:06,800 Speaker 1: us having them live. And we had Jack Easter be 1354 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 1: on in the last segment. If you missed that, I 1355 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: think we'll rerun that this afternoon or this evening rather 1356 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 1: six o'clock Texans all access because people want to hear that. 1357 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,120 Speaker 1: And the stick and move. Now, Jack didn't mention stick 1358 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:20,320 Speaker 1: and move, but I like that. That's a T shirt 1359 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:22,760 Speaker 1: right there, Johnny, stick and move, stick and move. That's 1360 01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:25,320 Speaker 1: essentially what it is. I mean, it's I mean, there's 1361 01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 1: so many boxing analogies and metaphor as you can use. 1362 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:31,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's essentially what it is. You know, pop move, 1363 01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you know, combination and move. You sound 1364 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 1: like Paul Giamati right there, and Cinderella man oh man 1365 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,400 Speaker 1: to me, I would have loved to have been a 1366 01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 1: boxing trainer. Look, Champ, you hit him with the combination 1367 01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:44,639 Speaker 1: and then you move. You're sticking, you move, You're stick 1368 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 1: and you move. You're always moving. You're always on. Get 1369 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:50,160 Speaker 1: on your bike, King, get on your get on your bicycle. Champ, 1370 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,879 Speaker 1: where have you been, Jimmy Braddock? That's such an awesome 1371 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 1: scene if you haven't, Cinderella Man, I mean when he 1372 01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 1: makes his return to the garden. Whole goodness. One of 1373 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:05,640 Speaker 1: my favorite scenes in any sports movie is that. And 1374 01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: it's true. And by the way, when we were playing 1375 01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:11,559 Speaker 1: the Jets a couple of years ago, late in the season, Yeah, 1376 01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 1: and everybody knows about the Rocky statue in Philadelphia, right, 1377 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,719 Speaker 1: everybody goes and gets a photo taken with the Rocky statue. 1378 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 1: They put their arms in the air. I get it. 1379 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean it's wonderful. I love Rocky, And look, you 1380 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:25,759 Speaker 1: can't replace the Rocky series as the quintessential boxing movies. 1381 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 1: Oh Raging Bull vand Americ Come on, all right, I 1382 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 1: know it's a great movie, but it's a different kind 1383 01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,519 Speaker 1: of movie. And Cinderella Man's great too. But anyway, I 1384 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:37,760 Speaker 1: was a meeting a friend and took a car up 1385 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,800 Speaker 1: up the Hudson River on the Jersey side, right, and 1386 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 1: there's a Jimmy Braddock statue, Jimmy Braddock Cinderella Man on 1387 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,920 Speaker 1: that side, because he was a new Jersey guy, remember yeah, 1388 01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:53,640 Speaker 1: on the Jersey City Hoboke in that area. And it 1389 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:56,680 Speaker 1: was pretty cool. Jimmy Braddock right there a statue. So 1390 01:09:56,840 --> 01:10:00,879 Speaker 1: it's not like the iconic stature of the Rocky statue, 1391 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,080 Speaker 1: but you at least know that Jimmy Braddick was real. 1392 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 1: He was, Yeah, thank you rock It's funny not fictional 1393 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 1: characters that have statues. Like when the statues are coming down, 1394 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 1: a couple of months ago, I was like, oh, please 1395 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:16,840 Speaker 1: don't take down the Mary tyner More statue in Minneapolis. 1396 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, did Mary. I don't think Mary did anything wrong. No, 1397 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:25,360 Speaker 1: it's true. Now Mary tyny More is a real person, 1398 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,200 Speaker 1: but the statue is based on the Mary Show because 1399 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: it was based in Minneapolis. Anyway, That's all we'll say 1400 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 1: about that. Now. Another thing going on here pre practice 1401 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 1: a little routine. I don't know if we talked about 1402 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 1: this on the Area yesterday, but the guy's playing soccer, 1403 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 1: Brian and Fairbaron on the far field. They have a 1404 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,120 Speaker 1: soccer ball and they kick it around in the morning 1405 01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:47,640 Speaker 1: and weeks he's there trying to do his best with 1406 01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:49,839 Speaker 1: it as well. Weeks he looks pretty good playing soccer, 1407 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:54,680 Speaker 1: and Anger is remarkably adept with a soccer ball, and 1408 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,280 Speaker 1: I guess fair Baron has to be too. But seeing 1409 01:10:57,320 --> 01:10:59,720 Speaker 1: them dribbling the soccer ball around is pretty impressive. And 1410 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,080 Speaker 1: that's one of those sports I wish I loved, but 1411 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 1: I don't. I really don't. Okay, you would get into it, 1412 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:07,720 Speaker 1: I'm telling you I have. You know, I love the 1413 01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:09,560 Speaker 1: idea of it, Johnny. You know, you know what I 1414 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:11,960 Speaker 1: love about soccer is that they got so many different 1415 01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 1: things to root for. You know, they got this cup 1416 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,120 Speaker 1: and that cup and they have a crappy season, but 1417 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:18,240 Speaker 1: you won this cup. Or you're in this other league 1418 01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:19,640 Speaker 1: and you're doing well there, but you might not be 1419 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:21,599 Speaker 1: doing that well here. And then you and I follow 1420 01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:23,719 Speaker 1: Fulham because of shod Con and we were there last 1421 01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:25,840 Speaker 1: year and they made it into the Premier League late 1422 01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:27,840 Speaker 1: winning that game at Wembley, and that was awesome. I 1423 01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:33,000 Speaker 1: remember twenty I mean before twenty eighteen, I mean I 1424 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:34,840 Speaker 1: was aware of things that are going on. I'm I 1425 01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:36,320 Speaker 1: realized there were a lot of people that I follow, 1426 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:38,559 Speaker 1: a lot of people that know were watching all these 1427 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:41,639 Speaker 1: soccer games and they would see on Twitter they would 1428 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 1: talk about the ending of one game. And what really 1429 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:47,880 Speaker 1: got me was a Champions League semifinal game I think 1430 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,360 Speaker 1: were Liverpool. No, it was a quarterfinal, because it was 1431 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:55,200 Speaker 1: a it was a two game series, and you're two games, 1432 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 1: like you might win one and lose one, but you 1433 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 1: might have the better gold differential. So Liverpool was down 1434 01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:03,679 Speaker 1: own goals, like they were down three goals and going 1435 01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 1: into the second half of their game and they scored 1436 01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:08,519 Speaker 1: four and people were just freaking out. I was like, man, 1437 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:11,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna kind of follow us. Well, then Amazon Prime 1438 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 1: did All or Nothing, you know, All or Nothing show 1439 01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,840 Speaker 1: that they've done NFL films. Well, they followed Manchester City 1440 01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:19,200 Speaker 1: you gotta watch, and I watched, and I fell in 1441 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:21,240 Speaker 1: love with that team. And then I started watching their 1442 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 1: games and you get into it and you totally like 1443 01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:27,599 Speaker 1: I was before the um one of our opening game, 1444 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,800 Speaker 1: one of our home games earlier in the year, maybe 1445 01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:32,559 Speaker 1: in the Carolina game. I'm in my office and I'm 1446 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:37,560 Speaker 1: watching I'm watching the I'm watching Manchester City take on Tottenham, 1447 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,960 Speaker 1: and Manchester City scores with like two minutes left in 1448 01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 1: the game, and I'm freaking. I was like, here are 1449 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,200 Speaker 1: three points. I'm like going crazy. And then all of 1450 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like, we're gonna take this to VR. 1451 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 1: They got the new VAAR rules, the replay rules right, 1452 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:55,320 Speaker 1: and they negated the goal and I was losing. They negated. 1453 01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:59,439 Speaker 1: The guy was cussing up every three months, we cannot 1454 01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 1: negate the goals, negated a goal, getting a tie, only 1455 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 1: got one point, and I'm like, my gosh, and of 1456 01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:07,320 Speaker 1: course Liverpool is so good. I was, so I'm I'm 1457 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 1: totally into it. Watson's team is Munich, right, yeah, Bayern 1458 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:14,479 Speaker 1: Munich when they came here. So when they well, he 1459 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 1: went to Germany and he visited when he was in 1460 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:18,960 Speaker 1: Germany as we was after his rookie year, after second year, 1461 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 1: one of those years. And then Bayern Munich kicked off 1462 01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:26,960 Speaker 1: this year. Yeah. Yeah, they kicked off this year playing 1463 01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 1: here against Real Madrid at an Energy Stadium, and that 1464 01:13:30,360 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 1: was last year and so this year, last year nineteen. 1465 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:36,240 Speaker 1: I say that the years long, longer than it should 1466 01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 1: have been. But to kick off the twenty nineteen twenty 1467 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:42,320 Speaker 1: twenty season they played here, so then they won Buoneshliga 1468 01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:44,040 Speaker 1: and then they ended up winning the Champions League. And 1469 01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:46,519 Speaker 1: so when DeShawn visited in Germany, that was where he went. 1470 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 1: He went to Bayern Munich. I think he worked out 1471 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,240 Speaker 1: on their fields, met the guys. Then when they played here, 1472 01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 1: Deshan was the honorary captain. And so he's been, he's 1473 01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 1: been in it. He loves Bayern Munich. In the day 1474 01:13:57,240 --> 01:13:59,840 Speaker 1: for your interview with him, he walks in with the interview, 1475 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:01,639 Speaker 1: he's got a he's got an iPad and he puts 1476 01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:03,040 Speaker 1: it down and I can see it soccer, so I 1477 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 1: know exactly what he's watching, and I was like, this 1478 01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:07,360 Speaker 1: has gotta be killing him. He's doing his interviews and 1479 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,120 Speaker 1: he's wanted to just watch his guys play. You would 1480 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,800 Speaker 1: totally get into it. You would totally get into it. 1481 01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 1: I like my Gridiron game, Johnny, and you know the 1482 01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 1: American sports, but I do like soccer a little bit. Yeah, 1483 01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: I just don't love it. So I'll do better. I'll 1484 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: try it anyway. Speaking of Watson, Johnny, we didn't get 1485 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,640 Speaker 1: to this, and we got a few minutes here to 1486 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:29,760 Speaker 1: talk about it. You know, Jackie easter Be and Bill 1487 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:34,439 Speaker 1: O'Brien rudely interrupted our conversation about Deshaun Watson. It's year four. 1488 01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:38,720 Speaker 1: It looks smoother than ever. It looks like there's more 1489 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 1: knowledge than ever. It is interesting to see without Hopkins 1490 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 1: out here in training camp what it looks like, because 1491 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:50,800 Speaker 1: I still don't know where. All right, it's third and 1492 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 1: five and you gotta have it. It's third and five 1493 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 1: and you gotta have it. Who's it gonna be. It's 1494 01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:59,680 Speaker 1: gonna be a mix? Is it gonna be one guy 1495 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:01,760 Speaker 1: more often than not? And I think we'll get a 1496 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:03,479 Speaker 1: sense of it. You know, we won't know until you 1497 01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:05,479 Speaker 1: get a few games intil a third and five gotta 1498 01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 1: have its situations. We won't know who that guy is 1499 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:11,120 Speaker 1: going to be. I guess it's anybody's guests, but what 1500 01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:14,240 Speaker 1: is your guests here? As far as who is it 1501 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 1: going to be on third and five? Or does Watson 1502 01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:20,479 Speaker 1: spread it around? I think he's gonna spread it around. However, 1503 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 1: the one guy that I just feel like, and maybe 1504 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:29,639 Speaker 1: it's because I haven't seen totally yet how it's gonna 1505 01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 1: all look with Brandon Cooks and Randall Cobb here, because 1506 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:34,960 Speaker 1: I do sort of think that Randall Cobb could be 1507 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 1: that guy. But the guy that I trust more than 1508 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:39,600 Speaker 1: any other on third and five is gonna make a 1509 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 1: play for us. As Kenny stills, Wow, I like this. 1510 01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:45,599 Speaker 1: I just think he's that guy. I mean, you think 1511 01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 1: about the clutched things he did for us last year, 1512 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 1: and I know to Sean trust him. He's as smart 1513 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:53,879 Speaker 1: as it gets out on the field. He knows exactly 1514 01:15:53,960 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: what to do on third and five. He could have 1515 01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 1: two guys hanging all over him, He's gonna make the 1516 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 1: catch and make sure he's got enough for the first down. 1517 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:04,840 Speaker 1: I just see I've for some reason, I just trust 1518 01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,360 Speaker 1: Kenny and maybe because I've seen it. But I do 1519 01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 1: think that they're gonna try, and with all the guys 1520 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:14,240 Speaker 1: they have to use, I think they're gonna do. I 1521 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:16,320 Speaker 1: think they're gonna do a little bit everything. And I 1522 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:18,760 Speaker 1: think that on third down it can be any one 1523 01:16:18,840 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 1: of those guys. I mean, could be David Johnson out 1524 01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:24,000 Speaker 1: of the backfield peck, Yeah, could it be Duke Johnson 1525 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 1: out of the backfield third and eighteen he was the guy, Yeah, eighteen, 1526 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 1: he was that guy. So I think it could be anybody, really, 1527 01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:34,360 Speaker 1: and I like I like that. I like that because 1528 01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:37,360 Speaker 1: the opponent doesn't know at that point, so the opponent's 1529 01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:39,120 Speaker 1: kind of like, well, what do we do here? Well, 1530 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,559 Speaker 1: you know, third down, a lot of teams were moving 1531 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:45,120 Speaker 1: the coverage to Hopkins, and the Texans had to adjust. 1532 01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 1: They had to find different ways to put Hopkins in 1533 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:50,120 Speaker 1: different areas so that he didn't get a double or 1534 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 1: he didn't get some sort of bracket coverage, and then 1535 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:54,840 Speaker 1: he could get loose on third down. And this past 1536 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 1: year wasn't as much as it had been the years before, 1537 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 1: but there would be times where he would get doubled 1538 01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 1: on certain things. But I think it is take a 1539 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,439 Speaker 1: look at the coverage, get a good feel for the coverage, 1540 01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: get the ball of your hands, and get it to 1541 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 1: the guy that you think in that particular coverage, especially 1542 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 1: early on in the year. Then as the year moves on, 1543 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:13,479 Speaker 1: then you can find out, Okay, who's my money guy 1544 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 1: in third and five, who's my money guy on third 1545 01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:18,680 Speaker 1: and nine? Who can I rely on two things on this. 1546 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,679 Speaker 1: I think these are great points. The playoff game against 1547 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 1: the Colts where the offense could never get going. Yeah, 1548 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 1: I thought he went to the well too many times, 1549 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:31,599 Speaker 1: the d Hop well and d Hop was banged up. 1550 01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 1: I mean d Hop credit him. I mean he was 1551 01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:35,760 Speaker 1: playing with like a bad shoulder and a bad we 1552 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what he had. I can't remember. I 1553 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 1: think shoulder was definitely a part of it. But he 1554 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,720 Speaker 1: was really he was. Most guys would have sat it out, 1555 01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:45,679 Speaker 1: but he's so tough. But it just wasn't working because 1556 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 1: he was He couldn't get open as he normally does 1557 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:50,559 Speaker 1: and whatever, and it was just a bad day all around. 1558 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:54,120 Speaker 1: Last year he spread it around. You're right. When we 1559 01:17:54,280 --> 01:17:59,240 Speaker 1: did our top five Watson Escapes video, the none of 1560 01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: the five r to d Hop right, none of the 1561 01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:05,439 Speaker 1: five completions are to D hop there to other guys, 1562 01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 1: and D hop might get extra attention. Look, if I'm 1563 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 1: an opponent and Hopkins is on the field with the 1564 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:13,120 Speaker 1: Houston Texans, I think I'm gonna make sure that I've 1565 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:16,800 Speaker 1: got him guarded properly, and Watson's gonna have to find 1566 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:19,639 Speaker 1: another way to get it done. And he did very often. 1567 01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 1: Now there's no denying what DeAndre Hopkins was for this 1568 01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:24,600 Speaker 1: football team. I mean, you cannot do that, and no 1569 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:26,840 Speaker 1: one's gonna do that, but you do have a lot 1570 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:30,560 Speaker 1: of weapons out here, and somebody's gonna be open. I 1571 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:32,720 Speaker 1: like what you said about Stills. Look, I could make 1572 01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:35,639 Speaker 1: a case for Stills. I could definitely make a case 1573 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 1: for Cobb being the slot receiver. I could also make 1574 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:41,680 Speaker 1: a case for Cooks because I think Cooks, you know, 1575 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:44,400 Speaker 1: everyone's like he's a burner. He's not a I mean 1576 01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,080 Speaker 1: he can do that. He can do a lot of things. 1577 01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 1: He can he can get open short range, yes you know, 1578 01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 1: and and get a sliding third, third and five conversion 1579 01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 1: catch for you Johnson, the play that we saw on 1580 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 1: Sunday with Cooks, you and I we were texting after that. 1581 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 1: He ran that over route. Yeah, I mean that's more 1582 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 1: than five yards. But he got it from point A 1583 01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage where he's aligned to point B, 1584 01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:09,760 Speaker 1: which was on the other side the other numbers. He 1585 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: got there faster than anybody I've ever seen. Yeah, I 1586 01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 1: can't remember ever seeing anybody go from A to B 1587 01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:19,240 Speaker 1: on that route as fast as he did, and he 1588 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:21,880 Speaker 1: did quick. That just gave the Sean an opportunity to 1589 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:23,479 Speaker 1: put it into Oh, he knew there was a hole 1590 01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,479 Speaker 1: in the defense over there, but does he have time 1591 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:28,680 Speaker 1: to get rid of it? And that's the thing. You think. 1592 01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:30,799 Speaker 1: You got to have time to throw that. Your offensive 1593 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:32,479 Speaker 1: line's got to protect you, and you gotta hope the 1594 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:34,479 Speaker 1: guy you're thrown and two can get open and make 1595 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 1: that catch. Well, Cook's speeds up the ability of De 1596 01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:39,960 Speaker 1: Sean to throw it a little bit earlier than he 1597 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:42,720 Speaker 1: has been. The line is better to protect him, and 1598 01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:44,920 Speaker 1: Cooks is gonna make that catch and then make something 1599 01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 1: happen with it at the very end because he can 1600 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 1: absolutely fly. So you know, that's the one thing. A 1601 01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 1: lot of times with those those over routes, the guys 1602 01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:54,160 Speaker 1: were catching him near the sideline because it was tak 1603 01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:56,720 Speaker 1: him that long to get over there. Now, once you 1604 01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:59,160 Speaker 1: get into this season, when Cooks starts that route, he's 1605 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:01,360 Speaker 1: gonna have to kind of in ball in between some things, 1606 01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,080 Speaker 1: but so be it. He's still gonna get to the 1607 01:20:04,160 --> 01:20:06,120 Speaker 1: spot you need him to make, to catch and make 1608 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 1: something happen.

But they have a plan and 1775 01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 1: they'll just just if they have to. General, I would 1776 01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:06,960 Speaker 1: love love to talk more Hurricane Laura as I know 1777 01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:08,800 Speaker 1: Mark would. But let's talk a little ball and I 1778 01:30:08,880 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 1: just saw Jacob Martin run passed a little while ago, 1779 01:30:11,680 --> 01:30:14,960 Speaker 1: and he dropped a huge nugget yesterday when he met 1780 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,280 Speaker 1: with the media, saying that from the end of the season, 1781 01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:20,960 Speaker 1: when he said he was about two hundred and twenty 1782 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:23,720 Speaker 1: nine pounds two hundred twenty six pounds somewhere in that neighborhood, 1783 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:29,240 Speaker 1: he put on twenty one pounds this offseason. I was 1784 01:30:29,479 --> 01:30:31,200 Speaker 1: kind of Florida. I mean, he did look bigger, but 1785 01:30:31,439 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how much bigger. How big a factor 1786 01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:38,840 Speaker 1: do you think a bigger, larger still fasting quit Jacob 1787 01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 1: Martin makes for this defense if you think about it. 1788 01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 1: The trade last year was on August thirty first, so 1789 01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:49,640 Speaker 1: a year ago he was still in Seattle preparing for 1790 01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:53,000 Speaker 1: his second season, and then he got traded. He got 1791 01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:56,080 Speaker 1: here right when they were preparing for the first game 1792 01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:59,640 Speaker 1: against the Saints, so he was way behind and he 1793 01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:02,000 Speaker 1: had to learn it on the fly. So now he 1794 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 1: has a full season, he has an off season, he's 1795 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 1: got the mental stuff down. He played twenty point five 1796 01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:11,800 Speaker 1: percent of the snaps and he had three and a 1797 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:15,479 Speaker 1: half sacks. Brother does mean, if he played forty one percent, 1798 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:18,639 Speaker 1: he would have seven sacks. He told us his goal 1799 01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:21,040 Speaker 1: is to be in double digits and he thinks that's 1800 01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:25,120 Speaker 1: where he's going to be. And I would imagine in 1801 01:31:25,280 --> 01:31:29,719 Speaker 1: most passing situations he'll be on the field opposite JJ Watt, 1802 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:33,439 Speaker 1: with Whitney merciless on the lining up in the middle 1803 01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:37,759 Speaker 1: or on the outside with what Martin. Whitney can move everywhere, 1804 01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:41,719 Speaker 1: he can drop into coverage, but Martin is more because 1805 01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 1: of his speed. He's the fastest player off the edge 1806 01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:49,479 Speaker 1: they have. Because of that speed and quickness, every time 1807 01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:52,680 Speaker 1: there had passed a second four and longer, I'd put 1808 01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:55,920 Speaker 1: him in there and say get the quarterback John McLean 1809 01:31:56,040 --> 01:31:58,880 Speaker 1: joining us. John, we had this conversation last segment, who 1810 01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:00,479 Speaker 1: do you think is going to be the Shaun Watson's 1811 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:04,000 Speaker 1: new best friend on third down? And say five? Whatever 1812 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:07,560 Speaker 1: third down passing situations, will it be an ensemble or 1813 01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:10,800 Speaker 1: do you have a player in mind? If I had 1814 01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:13,200 Speaker 1: to pick a player, I would say Brandon Cooks. I mean, 1815 01:32:13,280 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 1: let's think about this. Cooks had four consecutive one thousand 1816 01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:20,320 Speaker 1: yards seasons and then he had forty two catches, a 1817 01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:23,880 Speaker 1: career low last year. When he dealt with concussion issues, 1818 01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:26,400 Speaker 1: even though he only missed two games. But he is 1819 01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:30,360 Speaker 1: a big time receiver. He's been productive in his career. 1820 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 1: He's also can be twenty seven, I think, and I 1821 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:37,439 Speaker 1: would expect him because he's a great route runner, he 1822 01:32:37,600 --> 01:32:41,160 Speaker 1: has good hands, he's incredibly smart, and of course he 1823 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:45,040 Speaker 1: has speed to run through zone coverage, as Wake Phillips 1824 01:32:45,120 --> 01:32:48,000 Speaker 1: told me last week. So I would expect it to 1825 01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:52,599 Speaker 1: be him. But you know, we always thought of will 1826 01:32:52,680 --> 01:32:54,720 Speaker 1: Fuller as a deep threat. And I went back and 1827 01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:58,559 Speaker 1: watched the playoff games last year. There were times when 1828 01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:01,080 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins was tell will cover and it's third and 1829 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,840 Speaker 1: four and Watson would throw to will Fuller for five 1830 01:33:04,920 --> 01:33:07,880 Speaker 1: yard first down. And another guy to keep an eye, 1831 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 1: And of course it's Randall Cobb, you know, Cob. I'm 1832 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,240 Speaker 1: going to write about him for Friday. He's in the 1833 01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:16,760 Speaker 1: mitwork in the middle of that field. They've never had 1834 01:33:16,800 --> 01:33:21,320 Speaker 1: a productive, proven slot receiver like Randall Cobb since Bill 1835 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:25,320 Speaker 1: O'Brien's been here. John, we were talking a little while 1836 01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:28,720 Speaker 1: ago before we went into the break about quarterbacks. We 1837 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 1: didn't get the whole lot about DeShawn Watson. I don't 1838 01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,360 Speaker 1: think but I'll ask you, John, what have you seen 1839 01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:36,840 Speaker 1: from Deshaun Watson in year number four out here at 1840 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:41,280 Speaker 1: training camp? What have you seen from him? John? I 1841 01:33:41,520 --> 01:33:43,679 Speaker 1: like to go by what people tell me, and I'll 1842 01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:46,040 Speaker 1: talk to Bill O'Brien allout about him and talk to 1843 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:51,280 Speaker 1: other coaches, teammate, and he is so far ahead now 1844 01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:54,920 Speaker 1: where he was last year. He was so far ahead then, 1845 01:33:55,360 --> 01:33:57,639 Speaker 1: and he was the year before, and of course as 1846 01:33:57,640 --> 01:34:00,680 Speaker 1: a rookie he was injured over the second half of 1847 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,640 Speaker 1: the season. He's in mid season four. You know, it 1848 01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:07,040 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what route he's throwing. He is on top 1849 01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:09,560 Speaker 1: of the game. And he's fired up about working with 1850 01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:12,519 Speaker 1: Tim Kelly. It's not that he wasn't with Bill O'Brien. 1851 01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:16,560 Speaker 1: It's say, anytime something's new, you're fired up about it. 1852 01:34:16,680 --> 01:34:20,280 Speaker 1: And so we're all interested to see when they play 1853 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:24,040 Speaker 1: against Kansas City, what Tim Kelly's gonna call. Now he's 1854 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:27,519 Speaker 1: going to go about it. But Watson, I think a 1855 01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:32,560 Speaker 1: great quarterback like Tom Brady, like Aaron Rodgers, you know, 1856 01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:39,560 Speaker 1: they're great quarterbacks make receivers. Receivers generally don't make quarterbacks, 1857 01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:42,639 Speaker 1: and so I would expect no matter who they put 1858 01:34:42,720 --> 01:34:45,639 Speaker 1: on the field at receiver. Watson is going to give 1859 01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:48,000 Speaker 1: them the ball at the right time and in the 1860 01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:52,160 Speaker 1: right spot, and he's going to be a legitimate MVP candidate. 1861 01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:56,400 Speaker 1: John I'm wondering about special teams. Tracy Smith was with 1862 01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:59,680 Speaker 1: Brad Seey for a decade, so I'm hoping all the 1863 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:03,559 Speaker 1: stuff rubbed off and Smith has obviously been around the block. 1864 01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:06,640 Speaker 1: Many of these guys were with the team last year, 1865 01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:08,720 Speaker 1: who are going to be contributing on special teams? How 1866 01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:10,880 Speaker 1: do you think that phase of the game is going 1867 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:14,639 Speaker 1: to be for the squad? Last season was the best 1868 01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:18,200 Speaker 1: special teams they've ever had. I expect him to do 1869 01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:22,599 Speaker 1: it again. Brian Anger, who had an incredible ned average 1870 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:25,599 Speaker 1: last year and they led the league in punt coverage. 1871 01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:28,320 Speaker 1: I expect them to be really good at it again. 1872 01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:32,719 Speaker 1: I think Timey Fairbaron, he makes almost everything in practice. 1873 01:35:32,880 --> 01:35:36,360 Speaker 1: John Wicks the greatest snapper in NFL history. The only 1874 01:35:36,479 --> 01:35:40,960 Speaker 1: question is DeAndre Carter. They put Kiki Qt out there, 1875 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:43,000 Speaker 1: but he's not going to win the return to the hobby. 1876 01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:45,960 Speaker 1: He's not on the field enough. Bill O'Brien told us, well, 1877 01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:47,839 Speaker 1: where I'm not going to talk to you about injuries, 1878 01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:51,040 Speaker 1: but I'll just say kick. He's ramping up the first game, 1879 01:35:51,479 --> 01:35:53,519 Speaker 1: but he's not going to hit that return job because 1880 01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:58,200 Speaker 1: Carter's reliable. Despite that terrible fumble during Kansas City's comeback 1881 01:35:58,640 --> 01:36:02,719 Speaker 1: in the playoff game, Carter's there every day. He doesn't 1882 01:36:02,800 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 1: miss as a receiver and a return guy. You can 1883 01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:09,360 Speaker 1: count on him like you can count on humidity in Houston. 1884 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:13,120 Speaker 1: He's there. T KT's in and he's out. Is he 1885 01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:15,960 Speaker 1: out here? Is he not out there? Okay, he's out here. 1886 01:36:16,040 --> 01:36:19,400 Speaker 1: He's not dressed out. What's wrong with it? Now? They 1887 01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:22,240 Speaker 1: love QT and you guys have seen Ki makes some 1888 01:36:22,400 --> 01:36:25,760 Speaker 1: big catches and have some good games. But man, oh man, 1889 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:28,800 Speaker 1: you've got to be on the field. And how so 1890 01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:32,160 Speaker 1: Carter is going to be the return guy. And I'm 1891 01:36:32,200 --> 01:36:36,800 Speaker 1: writing I think for Thursday what we talked about last week. 1892 01:36:37,720 --> 01:36:40,320 Speaker 1: There's no room at the end. You know, they don't 1893 01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,240 Speaker 1: have starting jobs available on this team, and that's great 1894 01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:49,160 Speaker 1: in a veteran's type. Years. Bill O'Brien talked about again today, John, 1895 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:51,520 Speaker 1: what do you make of the Earl Thomas situation in Baltimore? 1896 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:54,479 Speaker 1: And do you think that Earl will be on a 1897 01:36:54,640 --> 01:37:01,280 Speaker 1: team week one? John? If teams consider or Antonio o'brown, 1898 01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:04,840 Speaker 1: who's about as bad as teammate as you can get. Now, 1899 01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:08,120 Speaker 1: they haven't signed him, but they checked him out. I'm 1900 01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:11,000 Speaker 1: guessing they'll check out or Old Thomas, because Thomas, like 1901 01:37:11,120 --> 01:37:15,800 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, can still play. But I'll say this, when 1902 01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:20,360 Speaker 1: Antonio o'brown got out of Pittsburgh and trashed his teammates, 1903 01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 1: he went to Oakland, mommed out, New England bombed out. 1904 01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:28,360 Speaker 1: As far as we know, there was no rebellion by 1905 01:37:28,439 --> 01:37:31,160 Speaker 1: his teammates to get him out of there like there 1906 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 1: was with ar Old Thomas. There's all these things coming 1907 01:37:33,880 --> 01:37:37,280 Speaker 1: out now about meetings he missed, how many times he 1908 01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:40,920 Speaker 1: was fine, He didn't know the coverages. That's what led 1909 01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:44,600 Speaker 1: to the fight. In practice, he blew a coverage and 1910 01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:48,559 Speaker 1: they knew he wasn't studying. His teammates knew he wasn't 1911 01:37:48,600 --> 01:37:51,400 Speaker 1: doing what he was supposed to and in essence, could 1912 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:53,960 Speaker 1: be taking money out of their pocket. And they let 1913 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,080 Speaker 1: him out of it, and they went to Harball and 1914 01:37:56,240 --> 01:38:01,000 Speaker 1: they cut him. And obviously it's a multi sins by 1915 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:04,719 Speaker 1: Old Thomas. And I tweeted immediately because I know it's true. 1916 01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:07,800 Speaker 1: The Texans are not interested in ar Old Thomas. If 1917 01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:10,400 Speaker 1: he's available. And then I see a couple of national 1918 01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:13,360 Speaker 1: guys throw him in there, and I said, I reiterate, 1919 01:38:13,720 --> 01:38:17,479 Speaker 1: the Texans are not interested if he becomes available. Then 1920 01:38:17,720 --> 01:38:20,320 Speaker 1: when he did become available, I did it again. You know, 1921 01:38:20,439 --> 01:38:23,760 Speaker 1: you talk about team guys, a good teammates and guys 1922 01:38:23,840 --> 01:38:27,280 Speaker 1: are getting with the program. Bill O'Brien gets ridd it. 1923 01:38:27,479 --> 01:38:31,600 Speaker 1: He didn't bring him in. John, I'm not asking to 1924 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:33,720 Speaker 1: go on the record yet with this, but with a 1925 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:37,320 Speaker 1: seventh team entry out of each conference into the postseason, 1926 01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:40,720 Speaker 1: if the playoff field were the same as last year, 1927 01:38:41,400 --> 01:38:43,960 Speaker 1: more likely to be the seventh team out of the AFC, 1928 01:38:44,520 --> 01:38:50,240 Speaker 1: the Colts, the Steelers, or somebody else Raiders, Denver pick one. 1929 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 1: So this year would be the Steelers because Roeckelisberger's back. 1930 01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:57,479 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin may have done his greatest coaching job last year. 1931 01:38:57,960 --> 01:39:01,000 Speaker 1: He had a bunch of mullets at quarterback, finished date, Nate, 1932 01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,680 Speaker 1: had a great defense, had injuries at running back. I mean, 1933 01:39:04,840 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 1: he did a tremendous job. There's no doubt in my 1934 01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:11,160 Speaker 1: mind the Steelers are back as long as Big Ben 1935 01:39:11,840 --> 01:39:14,479 Speaker 1: is in. And right now it looks like you know, 1936 01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:17,519 Speaker 1: he got what did get off last year thirteen games. 1937 01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:21,720 Speaker 1: He should be really well rested and very eager to 1938 01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:24,240 Speaker 1: get back and show what he can do well. The 1939 01:39:24,280 --> 01:39:26,400 Speaker 1: Texans will be up there week three, so we'll see 1940 01:39:26,439 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 1: how that one goes. General, thanks so much for joining us. 1941 01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 1: We'll catch up again tomorrow. Oh no, you'll see me 1942 01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:34,839 Speaker 1: in just a minute when I walk under your throne. Okay, 1943 01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:38,719 Speaker 1: it is still here. They're taking it down piece by piece, 1944 01:39:38,800 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, John McLean. The vander Bryant tower is slowly 1945 01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:46,360 Speaker 1: coming down around me. It's like Rome is burning. So 1946 01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 1: they took off my tent because I have a PGA 1947 01:39:49,360 --> 01:39:52,479 Speaker 1: type mini tent here above the practice field, which is 1948 01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:55,240 Speaker 1: right outside the fence line. So I'm technically not even 1949 01:39:55,320 --> 01:39:57,320 Speaker 1: in the facility. But if I see everything better than 1950 01:39:57,320 --> 01:40:00,360 Speaker 1: I've ever seen it at practice, even at the Green Briar. 1951 01:40:00,439 --> 01:40:02,880 Speaker 1: This is even better than that. But they took down 1952 01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,719 Speaker 1: the tent yesterday because of the oncoming hurricane. The platform 1953 01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:07,280 Speaker 1: is still here. We had to put up a little 1954 01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:10,599 Speaker 1: ten by ten. They took the porta potties away, which 1955 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:13,120 Speaker 1: was a real I mean, Johnny, this is like, this 1956 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:15,519 Speaker 1: is the problem. This is like I'm the office space 1957 01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:17,880 Speaker 1: guy and they put me in the basement practically with 1958 01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:21,160 Speaker 1: that move. Okay, I mean I don't like I can't 1959 01:40:21,320 --> 01:40:23,880 Speaker 1: drive a half hour without stopping to go to the bathroom. 1960 01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:26,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm doing a two hour show here. They 1961 01:40:26,120 --> 01:40:27,760 Speaker 1: took the porta potties where they're like, we don't want 1962 01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:29,439 Speaker 1: vandomir to be here, Let's see what else can we 1963 01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:31,040 Speaker 1: take away. I mean, trust me, that's one of the 1964 01:40:31,240 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 1: that's one of the conversations in a break of a 1965 01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:35,320 Speaker 1: game between the three of us. I mean, I have 1966 01:40:35,479 --> 01:40:37,760 Speaker 1: no opportunity to go. I mean, oh my god, I 1967 01:40:37,880 --> 01:40:40,880 Speaker 1: barely can. But it's like, okay, it's a three minute break. Okay, 1968 01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:42,680 Speaker 1: I'm going. I mean a home. It's great because of 1969 01:40:42,680 --> 01:40:46,599 Speaker 1: the bathroom. The bathroom is right outside the booth, which 1970 01:40:46,680 --> 01:40:48,439 Speaker 1: is great. But there's some places you go to and 1971 01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:49,960 Speaker 1: you have no idea where it is. It's like, man, 1972 01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:51,599 Speaker 1: you need five minutes just to get there. And that's 1973 01:40:51,640 --> 01:40:54,479 Speaker 1: the untold story about games. Like I'm like, can this 1974 01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 1: half please end? Because I gotta gotta make it, okay. 1975 01:40:58,479 --> 01:41:02,000 Speaker 1: Landry's camp questions come up next.

Landry Locker joins us now 2098 01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:46,240 Speaker 1: for Landry's camp questions. Good morning, Landry. All right, yesterday, 2099 01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:50,880 Speaker 1: a year before yesterday, three out of the four current 2100 01:48:51,000 --> 01:48:54,439 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the AFC South were not starters for their 2101 01:48:54,479 --> 01:48:58,960 Speaker 1: respected teams. A year from today, with who the starters 2102 01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:01,679 Speaker 1: are in the AFCs out right now at the quarterback position, 2103 01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 1: how many will still be the starters heading into the 2104 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:08,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one season. Oh, great question, I'm gonna say, 2105 01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:13,080 Speaker 1: to be safe, it's two one. Wait, only one left. 2106 01:49:13,200 --> 01:49:17,160 Speaker 1: Tannehill's gone from Tennessee. That's not gonna last. Wow. But 2107 01:49:17,320 --> 01:49:19,679 Speaker 1: see that's the big one to me, I think Minshew's safe, 2108 01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,280 Speaker 1: a safe pick to say, yeah, it's not gonna work out. 2109 01:49:22,439 --> 01:49:24,400 Speaker 1: You know, you kind of root for the guy, but 2110 01:49:24,439 --> 01:49:27,000 Speaker 1: he's in the division, so I can't Philip Rivers, this 2111 01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:28,560 Speaker 1: is a one and done if I ever saw it 2112 01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:32,479 Speaker 1: and Tannehill, you really think so, Hunt, Johnny. I think 2113 01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:35,479 Speaker 1: that it'll be to Shaun Watson. I think the Titans, 2114 01:49:36,160 --> 01:49:39,920 Speaker 1: we'll try and run it back with Tannehill. They'll be okay, 2115 01:49:40,720 --> 01:49:42,280 Speaker 1: but not to what would they give him a two 2116 01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:45,479 Speaker 1: year contract? There's only two but I think only the 2117 01:49:45,520 --> 01:49:48,840 Speaker 1: first year is guaranteed, so I don't think there's a 2118 01:49:49,000 --> 01:49:51,120 Speaker 1: lot of financial I mean, if look, if they would 2119 01:49:51,120 --> 01:49:52,680 Speaker 1: have been completely convinced, don't you think they would have 2120 01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:54,960 Speaker 1: given him a four or five mili Yeah, So from 2121 01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:57,320 Speaker 1: that perspective, I think Rivers one and done. Are they 2122 01:49:57,360 --> 01:49:59,200 Speaker 1: Minshew's done? The Jags will be drafting in the top 2123 01:49:59,240 --> 01:50:02,400 Speaker 1: three or four, take Justin Fields, Trey Lance or Trevor Lawrence, 2124 01:50:02,680 --> 01:50:04,760 Speaker 1: and we'll have to face that joker two times a 2125 01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:07,000 Speaker 1: year for the rest of the time. I kind of 2126 01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:11,960 Speaker 1: hope the Jags finished like five and eleven, so you know, 2127 01:50:12,120 --> 01:50:14,760 Speaker 1: just so you know, uh, and this might be good 2128 01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:17,280 Speaker 1: news to you. Based on what you just said, Danie 2129 01:50:17,360 --> 01:50:19,719 Speaker 1: Hill's dead cap in twenty twenty one is actually thirty 2130 01:50:19,800 --> 01:50:22,320 Speaker 1: nine million. Okay, so I didn't remember how long a 2131 01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:24,479 Speaker 1: deal he signed. Yeah, so it's a it's a two 2132 01:50:24,520 --> 01:50:26,920 Speaker 1: years commitment at the least. Okay, it's two then. So 2133 01:50:27,040 --> 01:50:29,320 Speaker 1: tannye Hill's there. That's good. That's great news. Yeah, I 2134 01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:31,680 Speaker 1: love it. Yeah, it'll be Tanny Hill and Watson and 2135 01:50:31,800 --> 01:50:35,439 Speaker 1: I think Trey Lance, Justin Fields or Trevor Lawrence will 2136 01:50:35,479 --> 01:50:39,280 Speaker 1: be the quarterback in Jacksonville, and the Colts will be 2137 01:50:39,400 --> 01:50:41,760 Speaker 1: looking for rivers. Is going to get them to seven 2138 01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:42,880 Speaker 1: and nine? The Colts are gonna have to do some 2139 01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:45,400 Speaker 1: maneuvering if they want to get a young quarterback and 2140 01:50:46,120 --> 01:50:49,360 Speaker 1: seven and nine. Yeah, that's your prediction for the Colts. 2141 01:50:49,960 --> 01:50:52,120 Speaker 1: That's cold. All right. We gonna expand on that tonight. 2142 01:50:52,240 --> 01:50:55,240 Speaker 1: Next question, please, seven and nine. I'm surprised you didn't 2143 01:50:55,240 --> 01:50:57,400 Speaker 1: get more excited about that prediction that that seems like 2144 01:50:57,520 --> 01:51:00,519 Speaker 1: music to your ears. Vandy. We've talked about guys that 2145 01:51:00,560 --> 01:51:03,160 Speaker 1: can potentially break out. I'm thinking based on what you 2146 01:51:03,240 --> 01:51:06,519 Speaker 1: said about Ryan Tannehill, I could already have your answer, John, 2147 01:51:06,600 --> 01:51:10,200 Speaker 1: But guys around the division that could disappoints and come 2148 01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:13,519 Speaker 1: tumbling down to earth in twenty twenty. I'm gonna go 2149 01:51:13,640 --> 01:51:16,320 Speaker 1: Derek Henry. I think it's it's tough on him. I 2150 01:51:16,600 --> 01:51:18,560 Speaker 1: think very highly of him as a running back, but 2151 01:51:18,640 --> 01:51:21,320 Speaker 1: I think it's very tough to continue that level of 2152 01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:24,960 Speaker 1: production and the way they're going to rely on him 2153 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:27,920 Speaker 1: and going to need to rely on him. Look, I 2154 01:51:28,040 --> 01:51:30,200 Speaker 1: know AJ Brown's a good receiver. I know Johnny Smith 2155 01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:32,360 Speaker 1: is an up and comer. And I was just watching 2156 01:51:32,400 --> 01:51:34,680 Speaker 1: the playoff game they had with the Ravens last night, 2157 01:51:35,120 --> 01:51:36,920 Speaker 1: and boy, a lot of things went right in that one. 2158 01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:39,599 Speaker 1: But credit that they executed. They got the job done 2159 01:51:39,640 --> 01:51:41,920 Speaker 1: on the road that game and the Patriots game of course. 2160 01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:45,080 Speaker 1: But I just think that it's going to be a 2161 01:51:45,120 --> 01:51:48,400 Speaker 1: little disappointing. I just I can't see him having the 2162 01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:51,280 Speaker 1: kind of production that he had last year. I think 2163 01:51:51,320 --> 01:51:53,439 Speaker 1: it's a lot to ask of the young man. I 2164 01:51:53,520 --> 01:51:58,400 Speaker 1: think Derrick Henry is a great great answer. That was 2165 01:51:58,640 --> 01:52:00,400 Speaker 1: that was where I was leaning, So I know I 2166 01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:03,840 Speaker 1: gotta go in a different direction. Okay, So who's gonna 2167 01:52:03,920 --> 01:52:07,479 Speaker 1: disappoint in the AFC South. I know a lot of 2168 01:52:07,560 --> 01:52:09,880 Speaker 1: Nashual people would probably point at us and point at 2169 01:52:09,920 --> 01:52:13,000 Speaker 1: somebody disappointing. They might point at de Seaun because you 2170 01:52:13,040 --> 01:52:15,360 Speaker 1: don't have Hopkins anymore. Well, that that's not I don't 2171 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:18,080 Speaker 1: think I can promise you that's not happening. Um as 2172 01:52:18,160 --> 01:52:23,479 Speaker 1: far as disappointing goes, I will say, I'm gonna say 2173 01:52:23,560 --> 01:52:26,519 Speaker 1: DJ Chark the Jags, and I'm just I'm I'm out 2174 01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:28,760 Speaker 1: on a limb there, because I'd like DJ Chark as 2175 01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:30,720 Speaker 1: a player, and I think he's really just gonna get 2176 01:52:30,760 --> 01:52:32,320 Speaker 1: better and better. But I mean needs to get the 2177 01:52:32,360 --> 01:52:33,920 Speaker 1: ball though, Yeah, you gotta get the ball. And I 2178 01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:37,320 Speaker 1: think Gardner Minshew that minsheu mania stuff works for only 2179 01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:39,960 Speaker 1: so long. So I think Chuck's numbers will probably fall off. 2180 01:52:39,960 --> 01:52:41,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if I go all the way to disappointing, 2181 01:52:41,720 --> 01:52:43,080 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's gonna be able to match 2182 01:52:43,120 --> 01:52:47,280 Speaker 1: his numbers for Rivers. I think Rivers will be okay. 2183 01:52:47,520 --> 01:52:50,320 Speaker 1: He's not gonna be great, A risky. I think the 2184 01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:53,439 Speaker 1: Cults are pretty good though. If he's okay, I think 2185 01:52:53,479 --> 01:52:57,080 Speaker 1: the Cults seven and nine. I don't know, you know, 2186 01:52:57,400 --> 01:52:59,559 Speaker 1: we need him to not be okay. I need Rivers 2187 01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:03,920 Speaker 1: horrible year. I said seven. I'm in ninety seven. That's 2188 01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:06,400 Speaker 1: a big I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I meant nine and seven. 2189 01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:07,960 Speaker 1: I mean the Titans. I've got nine and seven for 2190 01:53:08,040 --> 01:53:10,360 Speaker 1: forty three consecutive years. I just don't think Rivers is 2191 01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:12,400 Speaker 1: gonna do anything that makes you feel like the cults 2192 01:53:12,439 --> 01:53:16,639 Speaker 1: are capable of winning more than nine games and doing 2193 01:53:16,680 --> 01:53:18,439 Speaker 1: anything in the playoffs. I just don't think he is. 2194 01:53:18,720 --> 01:53:20,360 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people like, well, he's finally 2195 01:53:20,400 --> 01:53:23,080 Speaker 1: got a line, he's got this, he's eight hundred years old, 2196 01:53:23,400 --> 01:53:26,320 Speaker 1: he doesn't move out of the pocket, and his receivers 2197 01:53:26,640 --> 01:53:30,519 Speaker 1: t y are all unproven. This has been the exaggeration segment, Landry. 2198 01:53:30,520 --> 01:53:31,840 Speaker 1: What do you have coming up on in the loop? 2199 01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:35,559 Speaker 1: We got a lot. We got obviously some uncertainty around 2200 01:53:35,600 --> 01:53:38,439 Speaker 1: the scrimmage on Thursday. We got some AFC salth chatter. 2201 01:53:38,520 --> 01:53:42,879 Speaker 1: There's different moods in Indianapolis and Tennessee, which is really strange. 2202 01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:45,240 Speaker 1: We got an old school slash news school moment for 2203 01:53:45,320 --> 01:53:48,040 Speaker 1: the Astros.
