Speaker 1: to you. Hopefully your weekend is getting off to a

10
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: great starter as you tune into Texas All Access from

11
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: Monday Texans Radio Studio. I am your host, John Harris,

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: so glad to be with you. What a weekend we

13
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: have for you. Not only is city Houston, but just

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: football in general. This is such a huge weekend. Football

15
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: playoffs in the state of Texas are actually all over

16
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: the country right now. Some teams in some high schools

17
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: and some states have already played their state championship games

18
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: and they're done. But the bigger states, Florida, Texas, they

19
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 1: got their championships coming up. I think I think Texas

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: still has three weeks this and two others, but you

21
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: got that going on. Your championship weekend going on in

22
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: college football, got Baylor and O you tomorrow morning up

23
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: in Arlington, you've got the you got the Pack twelve championship,

24
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: which is huge. Tonight Utah against Oregon. So that's kicking

25
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: off and I don't know about an hour or so.

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: I believe I could be wrong on that, but either way,

27
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: you got that going on. And then of course Sunday

28
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 1: you've got a full slate of NFL games, including your

29
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: Houston Texans taking on the Denver Broncos as they come

30
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: into town with a four and eight record, which I

31
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: don't think it's indicative of where Denver has been this year.

32
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: I know Bill Parcel says, well you are what your

33
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: record says you are. Broncos lost three games by two points,

34
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: and all three of those games were I don't say

35
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: flukey endings, but games the Broncos not only could have won,

36
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: but should have won. Now, the flip side of that

37
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: is when they've played a couple of really good teams.

38
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: The Chiefs at home they got beat thirty to six.

39
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: They played the Bills on the road they lost twenty

40
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: to three. So and the Broncos are kind of all

41
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: over the place, but they'll be starting a rookie quarterback,

42
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: Drew Locke for the second time. Got to win last week.

43
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: Kind of a weird ending to that Chargers game where

44
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: they got an interference call and opportunity kick feel at

45
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: the end. Brandon McManus. This one he made when last

46
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: year against us he missed that gave us a win.

47
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: His kick being made the other day gave the Broncos

48
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: a win. So four and eight coming in here against

49
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: eight and four Houston Texans. So we have got plenty

50
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: to talk about on the show tonight. We have got

51
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: a great interview with Drew Doherty coming up in the

52
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: next segment. You're gonna want to hear this weekend is

53
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: my Cause, my cleats, and each of the players have

54
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: got a charity or a cause close to their heart

55
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: and they're gonna be wearing it on their cleats. And

56
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: one of those guys is DeAndre Carter and his is

57
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: jdrf Well, so happens that DeAndre Carter has Type one diabetes,

58
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: just like a good friend of ours, Drew Doherty. So

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: those two sat down and had a great interview. We'll

60
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: have that for you in a little bit. We also

61
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: are gonna give you our first community carty in first

62
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: glance keys the game, how do you beat the Broncos,

63
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: So we got that for you. Markvi Nnemyer's gonna stop

64
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: by now. On a Friday, I typically have a segment

65
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: where market I talk about the game, and then the

66
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: next segment I talk about my predictions. But we're kind

67
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: of jam packed tonight, so I figured, you know what,

68
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: let's do both. I bring Mark into my world in

69
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: some sense to do our predictions shut up against the spread.

70
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: So we'll have that. Then our deep plant in one

71
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: on one interview of the week is with John Weeks DPC,

72
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: who sat down with the longest tenured member of this

73
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: organization at least in the locker room, John Weeks. So

74
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: we'll have that for you, and then we flip it

75
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: over to the players in our final site, gonna call

76
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: it a players segment. So we're gonna do go a

77
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: little bit further with DeAndre Carter with our Drews Dirty Dozen.

78
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: We've also got the Final Word this week with Drew

79
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: Doherty as well, and we got a little bit more

80
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: b Scard TV for you. So we turned out last

81
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: segment over to the players to get them the microphone

82
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: and let them have a chance to chop it up.

83
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: So plenty or you on the show. Now, we kick

84
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 1: off every Friday show with hot reads and they're brought

85
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: to you. Buy a Geico fifteen minutes can save you

86
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: fifteen percent or more on motorcycle and or car insurance.

87
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: And this week, as every week, we start the head

88
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: coach of your Houston Texans, Bill O'Brien, who sat down

89
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: with Mark Vandamir earlier today. Coach, let's start with special

90
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: teams here because Deante Spencer is a good return guy.

91
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,559
Speaker 1: And I know kickoffs and returns are down in the league,

92
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: but they've had some production. Yeah you know, I'll tell

93
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: you Spencer, I think it's one of the top two

94
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: or three guys that we faced that's a return. He

95
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: does both returns, punts and kicks kickoffs very fast, very quick,

96
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: not very big, but built, built very well, so hard

97
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: to tackle. And we've got to do a great job.

98
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: We've got to do a great job. Punny, we don't

99
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: really want to punt, but sometimes you have to punt,

100
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: and so we have to do a great job with

101
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: the and then we have to do a great job

102
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: directing our kicks with Kayimi. So it's it's a big

103
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: challenge for us. What's been the big key in your

104
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: recent success last couple of years and keeping the returns

105
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: to a minimum? Yeah, I think I think it's all

106
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: about the combination of players and coaching, you know. I

107
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: think that the that the uh you know, Brad Celi

108
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 1: and Tracy Smith do a great job of giving these

109
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: guys a very simple way to approach things. And then

110
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: we have good players. You know, We've got a lot

111
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,799
Speaker 1: of players that uh uh can can run and can tackle,

112
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: and our very physical players at different positions, you know,

113
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: whether it's linebacker, running back, wide receiver, safety, guys that

114
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: can really run and tackle. And I think that that's

115
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 1: that's really the big deal. I know, you want to

116
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: run the ball better, but you're also top two in

117
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: the league in big plays. However you categorize that, So

118
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: how do you balance the two? Yeah, No, we need

119
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: to run the ball better. I mean I think that

120
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: last week, I would say it was more on me

121
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: than it was on the players. I think I've got

122
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 1: to do a better job of getting these runs called

123
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: in different situations, different schematic runs. But but I know

124
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: that we have to run the ball better. Our guys

125
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: are going to really try to do that. We got

126
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: to be balanced, and if we feel like we can

127
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: take a shot down the field, we'll try to do that.

128
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: I don't think Denver really allows you to take many

129
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: shots down the field. I think Vick does a good

130
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: job of not, you know, scheming things upward. The ball

131
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: is gonna be thrown over their heads, so it's gonna

132
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: be challenging. Well, when you do take a shot, is

133
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: that a scheme thing or a field thing? How do

134
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: you define that? A little bit of both. I mean,

135
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: I think you know, any good shot is always about

136
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: the timing of the call. You know, anytime you're you

137
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: feel like in your mind as a play caller you're

138
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: trying to force that, it's usually not gonna work. So

139
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: if you feel like you're in the rhythm of a

140
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: drive and you know your quarterback feels pretty hot, you

141
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: can just have that instinct of feeling about how your

142
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: quarterback's playing and who's in the game and uh, you

143
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: know at receiver, and then who's in the game for

144
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: the defense. You know that's that those are all the factors.

145
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: How far back did you go for your Drew Lock

146
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 1: prep for this game. Yeah, no, we you know, we

147
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: studied him a lot. We study all the quarterbacks in

148
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: the draft. You know, very smart, very accurate. Uh. You know,

149
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: a guy that does a lot of good things. He's athletic.

150
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: You know, these guys come into the league. You know,

151
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: we face Minshew, we face Kyle Allen. Now we're facing

152
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: Drew and it's a challenge. I mean, you don't have

153
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: a lot of information to go on. I think the

154
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: big thing for us is we've got to be disciplined.

155
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: We've got to stop the run. I think Philip Lindsay's

156
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: the key to that offense. He does a great job

157
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: run in the football. So it'll start with that and

158
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: then we'll do the best we can against Drew. All Right,

159
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: you're seventeen and one when you don't turn the ball over,

160
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: so you always tell us that that that's the most

161
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: important thing. Really Yeah, yeah, And I think that when

162
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: you look at you know, we talked about this when

163
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: we played the Patriots, and I think with us, any

164
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: when you don't turn the ball over, you've got a

165
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: real chance to win the game, even if you're you know,

166
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: maybe offensively, you're not playing great or defensively. If you're

167
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: taking the ball away and then offensively and in your

168
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: return game you take care of the football, you've got

169
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: a real chance to win games. Coach thanks a lot

170
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: for joining us. A good luck, thank you man. So

171
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: good stuff from coach Brian right there till he is

172
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: in game mode all ready. All right, let's get to

173
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: our next hot read. It is the status report. Well

174
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: it's injury report slash status report. When we get to

175
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: Friday for a Sunday game, this is the one you

176
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: care about. A lot of people will put up injury

177
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: reports and all that kind of stuff. You know, every

178
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: team has to do it throughout the week, but this

179
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: is the one that you want to know because you

180
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: find out who's in, who's questionable, who's doubtful, and over

181
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: the years, obviously you can paytihle case this guy, hand

182
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: this guy, and a lot of times they get labeled

183
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: with the questionable tag. And that's kind of the way

184
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: it is for the Texans this week. Now. Yesterday I

185
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: got a little worried because I saw Jordan Nakins pop

186
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: up as a limited participant in practice deal with the knee.

187
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: He was a full participant today, and he's in, so okay,

188
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 1: good news there now out for the text. Taiwan Jones.

189
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: He's been dealing with hamstring. He injured that during the

190
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: Patriots game and one of the special teams plays, so

191
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: he is out for this one. He's the only Texan

192
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: ruled out on the limited participation side. Five guys, some

193
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 1: very important ones here, Garyon Conley, will Fuller, Bradley Roby,

194
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: Brendan Scarlett, Carlos Watkins. They are all limited now. They

195
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: have been limited in practice, limited all week and they

196
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: are all questionable. So fingers crossed that everybody will be

197
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: ready to go, but they are all listens questionable out.

198
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones, questionable, Conley with a hip, Fuller with that hammy,

199
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: Bradley Roby deal with a hamstring, Antatoe, Brendon Scarlett that shoulder.

200
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: Carlos Watkins, who heard his hamstring earlier, I'm sorry, in

201
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: that Patriots game, Patriots game, Colts game, and the Colts game,

202
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: so he he was out of the Patriots game dealing

203
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: with that, trying to get back for this week, which

204
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: would be kind of nice because Carlos is really I

205
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: think taking some steps ahead and stepped forward in his game,

206
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: So Jones out, Conley full of Robie Scarlett, Watkins questionable.

207
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Aikins a full participant today in practice. Deal with

208
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: that knee. That was good to see. So he is

209
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: in now for the Broncos. A key A couple of

210
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: key notes. Number one Radley Chubb. It's been a while,

211
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 1: but since we're playing Broncos, it's going to bring us

212
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: back up. Bradley Chubb, who I think is going to

213
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 1: be one of the better pass rushers in the league

214
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: in due time. Towards ACL week three, I think it

215
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: was at home against the Bears, he has been out.

216
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: He's been an IR. He is out also on IR,

217
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: and this just happened last week. Derek Wolf had seven

218
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: sacks on the year. I believe that was the lead

219
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: for the Broncos. He is out of this game because

220
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: he was placed on IR earlier this week. So two

221
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: of Denver's top five overall players out of this game.

222
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: Ronald Larry, Guard, starting right guard, will be out dealing

223
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: with a concussion. He was a DNP all week, did

224
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: not clearly concussion protocol, so he is out. The other

225
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: big name in that mix that people want to know.

226
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: He was out last week is von Miller. He was

227
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: a limited participating a limited participant in practice all week

228
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: long Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. He is listed as questionable now.

229
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: This quote came from Vaughan earlier today, when asked if

230
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: he will play Sunday in Houston, he said, and I quote,

231
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: if I can't get my exotic movements back, then, in

232
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: my opinion, I shouldn't be out there. I'm doing whatever

233
00:11:53,520 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: I can to get out there. I usually heal like Wolverine. Oh.

234
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: Von Miller questionable for this game against your Texans. Also

235
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: questionable for this game against the Texans is Juan James

236
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: right tackle. Now he's been out for a few weeks.

237
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: Millard just missed last week. James has been out for

238
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: a few weeks. Eli Wilkinson had been the guy at

239
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: right tackle, but it appeared that Juan James was targeting

240
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: this game to get back for it, not for any

241
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,079
Speaker 1: particular reason, but just to get back for this game.

242
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 1: He was a full participant in practice throughout the week.

243
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: He is still listed as questionable, but he did practice

244
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: all week long. Also limited was Malik Read outside linebacker,

245
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: a guy that had to step in for Von Miller

246
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: last week and playing the outside. He was a DNP

247
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: earlier in the week, but then was a limited participant

248
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: as the week worn limited Today he is questionable. So

249
00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 1: out for the Broncos starting right guard Ron Leary, questionable

250
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: for the Broncos starting right tackle Juwan James, Malik Reed,

251
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: and of course one of the greatest pass rushers of

252
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: all time, Von Millard. Now, if Wolf and Chubb and

253
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: Miller are all out, then the Texans offensively had better

254
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: be able to do what it is they want to

255
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: do every single down. Those are three of the better

256
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: defensive players I've seen over the years. I've been down

257
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: on the sidelines and watching that defense last year with

258
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: all three of them, they I don't say they wrecked

259
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 1: the game. They had the potentially wrecked the game each

260
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: one of them. I believe that had a sack all

261
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: three of them. Wolf may have had a bunch. Wolf

262
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: had two sacks last week before he went out. I

263
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: believe it was an elbow injury and he was placed

264
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: on ir this week. That's gonna leave the interior the

265
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: Broncos defense thin. If Von Miller doesn't play, a Malik

266
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: Reed doesn't play, it leaves the exterior the edges thin

267
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: for the Broncos on defense against the Texans offense. So

268
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: we'll see. As I mentioned von Miller, I my gut

269
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: tells me that Vaughn is gonna want to play in

270
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: this one to get back on in the field. He

271
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: had not missed a game before last week, heading back

272
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: all the way to twenty thirteen when he had torn

273
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: his ACL that year that was his second, no third

274
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: year in the league. It was his third year, had

275
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: a great rookie year, good second year, and then twenty

276
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: thirteen he towards ACL. Came back from that two years

277
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: later it was a Super Bowl. MVP man has played

278
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: at that particular level. He's a monster block. He should

279
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: go to the Hall of Fame. I think he's one

280
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: of the better pass rushers we've ever seen. And I

281
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: remember seeing him in college thinking, whoa boy, good luck

282
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: if you got to block this guy. And he has

283
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: played at that particular level all in his entire all

284
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: the way through his career. But he had not missed

285
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: a game, did he all the way back to twenty thirteen.

286
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: So he had played fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, and

287
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: almost ten games of nineteen, eleven games of nineteen before

288
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: I had to sit out last week's game against the Chargers,

289
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: so Von Miller questionable heading into this one. And I

290
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: would imagine there are probably some Maggie's thinking, Hey, I'm

291
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: gonna go to this game because on one side, I

292
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: got Colin Gillespia, Aggie Hero. On the other side, I

293
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: got Von Miller, Aggie Hero. I mean, this is a

294
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: Texas A and m LoveFest. What happened with those two

295
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 1: guys on the sideline for each particular team. So there

296
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: you go, Taiwan Jones out for your Texans, Conley Fuller,

297
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: Robie Scarlett Watkins questionable for the Broncos, Leary is out,

298
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: Von Malik read and Juan James questionable for the Broncos.

299
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: That is your status slash injury report. And those are

300
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: your hot reads, brought to you by Geico fifteen minutes

301
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: to save you fifteen percent or more on car ant

302
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 1: or motorcycle insurance. Coming up next, we got one of

303
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: I think the better interviews that you're gonna hear on

304
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: Texans All Access in any year. Gandre Carter is gonna

305
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: step by and talk about his cause, his cleats. That'll

306
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: happen on Sunday. We got that for you next on

307
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: Texans All Access. One of my favorite groups in this

308
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: entire world are all my teachers out there. So I

309
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: am calling all of my Houston area teachers. You want

310
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: to bring a little Texas football to your classroom and

311
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: set up for Toros Mathtros presented by Conico Phillips. Toros

312
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: Matris is a video series designed to help third fourth

313
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: graders learn how to tackle math in the classroom. Go

314
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: to Houston Texas dot com slash Toro's Mathros to learn more.

315
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Texans All Access. I'm your host, Sean Harris,

316
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: football analyst and sideline reporter for your Houston Texans. And

317
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: I use that nugget about teachers now. I read that.

318
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: I think every Wednesday and Friday, maybe Monday two about

319
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: Toros Matros presented by Conico Phillips. I read that because

320
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: I love teachers. I'll always have. I grew up the

321
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: son of two teachers, with my mom teaching math, my

322
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: dad teaching history. My dad was a coach. He coached football, basketball, baseball, track,

323
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: he coached all the sports you know. He did all that.

324
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: Our next guest is actually a teacher as well, DeAndre Carter.

325
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: In between stints in the NFL, he stepped into the

326
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: classroom as a substitute teacher back in his home state

327
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: of California in Sacramento. So he's been in a classroom

328
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: and I think he would be a really, really good teacher.

329
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I would love to see

330
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: how he I just watch how he is on the field,

331
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 1: and obviously we see him play, but just his way,

332
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: I think he would be really good no matter what

333
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: grade kids he would end up teaching. Now the other

334
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 1: thing that people in fact, I was shocked when I

335
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: heard this, but DeAndre Carter is also he deals with

336
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: type one diabetes. He's been insolent dependent diabetics since his

337
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: freshman year of high school. And he on Sunday will

338
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: be wearing blue and cherry red cleats with a white

339
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: JDFR jd r F logo on them. It's an organization

340
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: that he is has been with he obviously is fighting

341
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: for to help them find it here for type one diabetes.

342
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 1: So he's not alone. On Sunday, the Texans are going

343
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: to wear their custom cleats for their fourth annual My Cause,

344
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: My Cleats campaign. After the game, players have an opportunity

345
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: to raise funds for their causes by auctioning off those

346
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 1: cleats at NFL auction or one hundred percent of the

347
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 1: funds raised will be donated to their selected charities. And

348
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 1: obviously jd r F hits really close to home for

349
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: Drew Doherty and he sat down with DeAndre Carter, who

350
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: will wear those cleats proudly as a Type one diabetic. Drew, Well,

351
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: this is a fun chance to talk about an excellent cause.

352
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: The Texans have My Cause my cleats this week, and

353
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: that's something we're all familiar with. All these players get

354
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: to design a cleat that they get to wear and

355
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: it's for a charity, for a cause that they're behind.

356
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: And right now we got DeAndre Carter, punt returner receiver.

357
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: You could do it all. I mean, you could probably

358
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: play some other things too if you needed to. You

359
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,959
Speaker 1: could do it. I know, I know. But you've got

360
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: out an excellent cause. Tell us about what your cleats

361
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 1: look like and why you chose them. Yeah, they came

362
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: out and nice. Juvenile diabetes is my cause. You know,

363
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: I was diagnosed when I was younger, fourteen years old. Blue,

364
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: blue and red, you know, great design that came out. Great,

365
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: love them with the bluest obviously for you know, juvenile

366
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: diabetes and everything. So yeah, man excited to put those

367
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: pictures out there, go out there and represent that cause

368
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: so he can reach some warrins to it. Yeah, a

369
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: lot of people in the country, a lot of people

370
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: worldwide have diabetes. Most of those people have type two diabetes.

371
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: And folks like you and actually folks like me too. Yeah,

372
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: we are type one diabetics exactly, which means we need

373
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 1: insulin to help control things. So it's a little bit,

374
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: a little bit smaller, well a lot smaller segment of

375
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: the diabetes population. And not many NFL players have this,

376
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: have this this disease. I mean, I know there have

377
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: been a couple that have come through the Texans. Jake

378
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: Cutler is the most famous NFL player that comes to mind,

379
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 1: Peter as it is Patrick Peterson. See I did not

380
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: know that, But there's not many that have this. What's

381
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: it like playing NFL football with diabetes? Once you get

382
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: you know, I've had it, you know, for a while,

383
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: so I got a pretty good control over it. But

384
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: it's just an added responsibility that you gotta make sure

385
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 1: you stay on top of checking your blood sugar throughout

386
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 1: the game, halftime, in between quarters and things like that,

387
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 1: making sure but sugar it is not too high, not

388
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 1: too low during the game and things like that or practice.

389
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: It's not a big burden, just some extra that you

390
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: gotta make sure you stay on top of. And that's

391
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: kind of one of the keys here. It's it was

392
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: once a terrible fits. It's a bad illness, but it

393
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: was once just stabilitating for a lot of people. But

394
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: you're an example of somebody that's thriving with it exactly.

395
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: It's definitely, you know, just making sure people know that

396
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 1: you can still do whatever it is that your goals,

397
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: your dream, your aspirations are even if you have this diagnosis,

398
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: as you can say, I'm still able to go out

399
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: and do my job at a high level. But it's

400
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 1: not it's not like you said, it's not something that's

401
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: stabilitating that you can do anything. Very Once you get

402
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 1: control over and get a good manage on it, then

403
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: it's pretty easy to go out and do live life

404
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,119
Speaker 1: as a regular person, no doubt. Now you're in your

405
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,679
Speaker 1: mid twenties. You got diagnosed though, right before your freshman

406
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: year of high school. What what what happened? What was the

407
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: change right, what changes. Yeah, so I'm right before, Like

408
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 1: I said, before my freshman year, we're actually in like

409
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: football summer workouts and things like that. But I started

410
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 1: losing a lot of weight really fast. I got down

411
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: there with seventy six pounds. I think it was from

412
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: probably one I was one fifty then a little lighter,

413
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 1: but I lost a lot of a lot of weight

414
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: going to the bathroom. You know you're nameing a lot.

415
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: I was sleeping a lot, like, way more than on

416
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: all throughout the day, sleeping probously, maybe eighteen hours out

417
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: of the day. This is a span of about like

418
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: a month or two. Yeah, yeah, And it was all

419
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: going crazy. One day football practice, I couldn't make it

420
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: through practice, so my coach shent me home, told my

421
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: dad I wasn't feeling well and everything like that, and

422
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: I went home started throwing up crazy everything. So my

423
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: dad took me to the hospital and then they ran

424
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,479
Speaker 1: the test and everything, and they told me I had

425
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,719
Speaker 1: one diabetes and it was type two runs in my family, right,

426
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 1: So I was familiar with it, but the insolent part

427
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: of it was new to me, which you know, I'm insulindependent.

428
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: So it took a little bit of a time to

429
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: get adjusted to it and everything. But once I got

430
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: used to it wasn't too bad. So what's that mean?

431
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,120
Speaker 1: You're insulin dependent? But does that mean are you giving

432
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: yourself shots? You know, are you on an insulin pump?

433
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 1: They're they're different ways to do it. So what's that

434
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: mean for you on a daily basis? Yeah, so there's

435
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: there's different ways to do it now they got pumps up.

436
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: I'm kind of old school. I like to use the

437
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 1: syringe and the you know, the needle and everything. I

438
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: feel like I got a little bit more of my

439
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: own control over it, right, But I have desk coms,

440
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,200
Speaker 1: like a continuous glue coast monitor which tells me my

441
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: blood sugar all throughout the day and everything. So if

442
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: you're too high, too high, I got to give yourself

443
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: to give myself some insulin, to orange and skate orade, candy,

444
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: anything to get it up. Sometimes it's kind of something's

445
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: kind of Niceah, you get get a little treat there.

446
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 1: At the rest of the time, you know, trying to

447
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: keep your carbon take sugar down, but you can get

448
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: get the loads, get a little a little snack, and

449
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: in some ways it's probably helpful that you work for

450
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: the Texans and work for an NFL team because of

451
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: the medical staff that's on hand to support you. Yeah,

452
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: the guys here are training room, real great, staying on

453
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: top of anything that I need, my prescriptions, my medicine,

454
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: if you low during practice or high during practice or whatever.

455
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: They always right on top of it. So great, great

456
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: staff here. Do you interact or come in contact with

457
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: folks that have type one diabetes? I mean it's typically

458
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: kids get diagnosed, but you're seeing older people now get

459
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 1: diagnosed with it. Two, you're active in the community. I

460
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: mean we always see you doing stuff Tuesdays, going to

461
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: hospitals or whatever. I imagine you run into diabetics from

462
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: time to from time to time, and then it's it's

463
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 1: it's fun, you know, to share. No, I wouldn't say fun,

464
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely not a good thing to have, but

465
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: but to share those stories, you know, those you know

466
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 1: being guys or people overcoming it and still being successful

467
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: and productive in society. And when I run into the kids,

468
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: just letting them because you know, when you're young, you

469
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: kind of you kind of feel like outcasts, you know,

470
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: kind of not a lot of not a I mean,

471
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: kids have it, but it's not common, you know, and

472
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: more than likely you'll be one of a few kids

473
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: in your school to have it. So kids kind of

474
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 1: feel like an outcast sometimes, but you know, just kind

475
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: of giving them the confidence to know that it'll be okay.

476
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: They'll be able to do everything they need to do

477
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: that they want to do through life and not to

478
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: be shy about it. That's awesome, DeAndre Carter. We're really

479
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: excited to see in those cleats on Sunday against the Broncos.

480
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm calling my shot. You're gonna take one back. You're

481
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 1: going to the house. Okay. I like that. Let's make

482
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 1: it all right. DeAndre Carter, thanks so much for the time,

483
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: and we'll talk to you in a bit. Thanks appreciate you.

484
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: When I saw Deandre's cleats outside of the locker room

485
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: where they were showing the players their cleats and I

486
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: saw JDRF, my first thought was Drew. I thought about

487
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: Drew's Drew's done so much for jdr F over the years,

488
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: and I thought about Drew and I didn't I couldn't

489
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: find Drew, And so then I walked back at the

490
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: studio and as I walked back in studio, Drew was

491
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: with DeAndre Carter, so I didn't know they were gonna

492
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 1: be doing that interview, but I thought it was really cool.

493
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 1: And what I was gonna ask Drew is did you

494
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: know did you have any idea that DeAndre dealt with diabetes?

495
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: He's like no, he asked Drew did of Andre? Johnson

496
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: said he didn't know. There were Tim Kelly didn't know.

497
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 1: They didn't know that DeAndre Carter suffered from type one diabetes,

498
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: and it just blew my mind when I heard that.

499
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: But he found out he had it in high school.

500
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: They got it under control, and DeAndre was able to

501
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: have a tremendous college high school, college career, find his

502
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: way to the Texans. He's done a really nice job

503
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 1: for the Texans. No questions asked. But I know that's

504
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: got to mean a lot of these guys and a

505
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 1: lot of DeAndre Carter to be able to put those

506
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: cleats on his feet on Sunday and know that there

507
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 1: are so many people pulling for you. In large part

508
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: they may not know who you are, but they're like, hey,

509
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: wait a second, I deal with type one diabetes. I

510
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: love that guy, now, I love that I'd love DeAndre

511
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 1: Carter because I know he's dealing the same thing I do.

512
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: And I saw somebody tweet that Drew earlier today and

513
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: it was a father whose daughter deals with Type one

514
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: diabetes and read the tweet and based it was DeAndre

515
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: Carter's now her favorite football player for that particular reason.

516
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: So it's pretty cool. And that's what my Cause my

517
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 1: Cleats is meant to do, is to show the charitable

518
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: nature of these players. If people don't see it any

519
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: other time, they definitely will see it on Sunday. And

520
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 1: I think that's a great thing. Now we're gonna have

521
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: more with DeAndre Carter later. Drew kind of turns the

522
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 1: page and goes to Drew's Dirty Dozen, So you have

523
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 1: that to look forward to later in the show, and

524
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 1: it is with DeAndre Carter. But next, I'm going to

525
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: break down the keys to a victory over the Denver

526
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: Broncos on Sunday. What do the Texans need to do

527
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,719
Speaker 1: to get that? W Let's do that next right here

528
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: in Texans All Access. Welcome back to our Friday edition

529
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: of Texans All Access from the Nday Texans Radio Studio.

530
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 1: I am John Harris, Football anast inside the reporter for

531
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: your Houston Texans. Of course, I am glad to be

532
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: with you this evening. What a weekend it is going

533
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: to be. You have the PAC twelve Championship kicking off shortly.

534
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: You've got a whole weekend of high school playoff games

535
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: in Texas right here in Houston. You've got championship weekend

536
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: on Saturday in college football, including the big game tonight,

537
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: Pack twelve Utah of the organ. And then you've got

538
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: a full slate of NFL games, including you're eight and

539
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: four Houston Texans taking on the four and eight Denver Broncos.

540
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: But do not let that four and eight fool you.

541
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: The Broncos had three games this year they lost by

542
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: two points. They lost the Bears on the last field

543
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: goal of the game after scoring a two point conversion

544
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: of making fourteen thirteen lost out one, should have won

545
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: a one. They lost by two to Jacksonville late field goal,

546
00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: I believe by Josh Lamb. Josh Lambo. That was another

547
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: loss and they lost by two, and I'm trying to remember.

548
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: The other loss of two points was to the oh gosh,

549
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. Von Miller has got Jacoby Brissette sacked

550
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: in the end zone and lets him get away. They

551
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: all said that game when that a big leadiance the

552
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: Vikings then lost it. This seemed very easily could be

553
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: seven and five, a worst case six and six. They

554
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: weren't able to come through and finish those games and

555
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: those wins. Now, they also got beat by a good

556
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: football team in Kansas City thirty to six. They got

557
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: beat by Buffalo twenty to three. So they've gotten beat.

558
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 1: They've been beat by good football teams by decent margins.

559
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 1: And let's hope that happens on Sunday against your Texans. Now,

560
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: this segment is always reserved for our First Committee Credit Union,

561
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: First Glance Keys to the Game FCCU, the official Credit

562
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: Union of your Houston Texans. So this is where we

563
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: dive deep into this thing. We start talking about the

564
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: game in front of us, the team in front of us.

565
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: I try as best I possibly can to vary these keys.

566
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: For example, earlier this year, when we were facing the

567
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: Indian Apples Holts, I believe, and also the Ravens, it

568
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: was tackling was a major key, and I like to

569
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: go a little bit deeper than that, but it was

570
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: such an important aspect of those games that they had

571
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: to be involved. Now, tackling, I should just put it

572
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: up on a shelf. Blocking, tackling, nutmaking mistakes, those should

573
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: all just go up on a shelf as if they're

574
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: always keys. I try to do a little bit more

575
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: specific to the team the Texans are going to face.

576
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: So let's get into it. Let's talk about the Texas

577
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: defense to start key number one. And I wrote this

578
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: and I'll explain what I mean. Sutton stops suddenly a

579
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: little alliteration there about Courtland Sutton. Courtland Sutton is the

580
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: second year wide receiver at SMU six three sixty four,

581
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:49,959
Speaker 1: about two sixteen, big, fast, physical. How he ended up

582
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: following to the Broncos in the second round of the

583
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: draft is beyond me. And there's no reason that should

584
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: have happened. And I remember watching him and going back,

585
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: dude the first rounder and he didn't go in the

586
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: first round. And sometimes when you see that happening, like

587
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, you overshot on that guy, and now I'm

588
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: watching him, I'm like, no, no no, no, that was absolutely

589
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: right on that guy. He is a major problem. Now

590
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a ton of help, especially in the

591
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: receiver realm, as receivers, They've got four. They've got four

592
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:21,719
Speaker 1: pass catchers with twenty five catches or more. The next

593
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: receiver after Sutton only has thirteen. They've played twelve games.

594
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,239
Speaker 1: That's like one catch a game for a receiver not

595
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: named Cortland Sutton. So slowing him down and doing it

596
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: immediately is a major key. He is physical. He can

597
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: catch screens and run after the catch, and can catch

598
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: slants and beat you at speed. He can catch the

599
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: fifty fifty ball. He can beat you with deep balls

600
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: down the field. He is a complete receiver. Of receivers

601
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: with forty or more catches in the league, he is

602
00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:01,479
Speaker 1: third in that group with sixteen point eight yards per catch.

603
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: He is Courtland Sutton's go to guy. When Locke got

604
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: in trouble, that's the right word. But when he faced

605
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: gotta have it situations on third down, down in the

606
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: red zone, he always looked to fourteen side. He was

607
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: gonna go to Courtland Sutton. Courtland Sutton was going to

608
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: see the football. The last week, when I talked about Edelman,

609
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: I said, take him out of the game, do not

610
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: let him have an impact on the game. And really,

611
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: up until that thirty yard catch, I guess where was

612
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: more than thirty. He had like a first and thirty

613
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: catch and you got a first down was like a

614
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: forty something yard catch. He really hadn't done a whole lot.

615
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: The Texans had done a really good job of doubling

616
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: him with a number of different guys and taking him

617
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: out of the game. Edelman's on the inside. I think

618
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: sometimes it's it's more difficult to double a guy on

619
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: the inside. Sometimes on the outside you got a better opportunity.

620
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: But you've got to do whatever possible it takes out

621
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: of this game. Well, I mean not hurt him, of course,

622
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: but take him out of this game. Double him, bring

623
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: the safety over the top, be physical with him. Now,

624
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: what you like about the Texans secondary is that you

625
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: have different guys. You have Connolly, longer range, year, stronger

626
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: corner than maybe Vernon, and Vernon's more of an insight guy.

627
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: You know, he's a little bit tall and stronger than Jjo.

628
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: But Jjo has the experience. You can play his own.

629
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: You can play man whatever you do. Fourteen is the focus.

630
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 1: That's Courtland Sutton's number. Take away. Drew locks Binkie with

631
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: a combination of personnel and coverages against Courtland Sutton number two.

632
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: This is a big key last year because the offense

633
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: had really in Denver turned into case Keenum making some

634
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: plays but not a whole lot, but turning and handing

635
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: the ball. Number thirty, the rookie undrafted guy on a

636
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: Colorado who was smaller than anybody on the field, and

637
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: that was Philip Lindsay. But do not mistake Lindsay's lack

638
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: of size for lack of heart, hunger, will and speed.

639
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: He's got all of those and he uses all of

640
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: those and he runs with his big, huge head of

641
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: hair on fire. He runs downhill. He doesn't mince words,

642
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: he just goes. He's the energizer bunny. And last year

643
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: the Texans did a really nice job of slowing him down,

644
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: and I think that forced the game back to case

645
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: Keenum's hands, and he made some plays but not enough.

646
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: This year's Drew Lock. But you've got to be able

647
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 1: to answer Lindsay with your physical play. And you're tackling obviously,

648
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: so you cannot underestimate a guy. And when you see him,

649
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: you're like that guy, really, he's tiny. Yeah he's tiny,

650
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: but he will run your ass over if you're not

651
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: ready for it. Number three attack the edges in the

652
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: passing game, Garrett Bowls at one tackle Juan James or

653
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 1: Eli Wilkinson as the other tackle. Those guys, especially Bowls.

654
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,239
Speaker 1: Bowls has had a ton of penalties this year, a

655
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: ton of holding penalties. That's been a problem for him.

656
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: He's probably a guy they need to move to guard.

657
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,959
Speaker 1: They're gonna keep him. He's had a little bit more

658
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: success lately. The charters didn't just destroy them like I

659
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: kind of thought they would. In fact, Locke didn't even

660
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: get sacked, so the line has been better. But I

661
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: still think with this pass rush there's an opportunity to

662
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: tack those tackles with Jake Martin speed, with Whitney merciless

663
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: toolbox and see what they're able to do to get

664
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: pressure on the rookie Drew Lock number four, and this

665
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: one is specifically about a Texan, but it kind of

666
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:32,760
Speaker 1: goes to show against this Broncos group, who has to dominate,

667
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: and that's DJ Reader. Reader has been phenomenal all year.

668
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,760
Speaker 1: But to answer the Philip Lindsay question, to get pressure

669
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: on Drew Lock at his feet in addition to what's

670
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,960
Speaker 1: coming from the edges, DJ Reader is that guy he

671
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: has played at such a high level this year, it's

672
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 1: I mean, it's almost unfathomable for to think that guy

673
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: was a fifth round pick. He's been unbelievable. But he's

674
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: got to continue to dominate from guard to guarden. He

675
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: lines up all all over the place. So whether it's

676
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 1: connamer Government at center or Ronald Leary at one guard,

677
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: they've got he's got to be able to take over.

678
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: He's got to win one on one and he's got

679
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 1: to be able to win two on one really if

680
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: he can do that, and then obviously he gets some

681
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 1: help from his dudes inside. The guys inside have played

682
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: very well. That Brandon Dunne played a heck of a

683
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: game against the Patriots. His ability is split double team fantastic.

684
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: But to me, reader is stirring at drink inside. He's

685
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: that guy. Number five rookie tight end for the Broncos.

686
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: His name Noah Fan. He was draft number twenty or

687
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: twenty one in his draft this last draft. He is

688
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 1: an athlete. He runs like four four one. He's faster

689
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: than almost I think he's fast and every receiver on

690
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: the Broncos team, and he's faster probably than any other

691
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 1: pass catcher on the field not named Will Fuller and

692
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: Kenny Steals. He can fly. Now, he hasn't caught the

693
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: ball consistently well this season, but he is a problem

694
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 1: for a secondary or linebackers. So the Texans have got

695
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: to be completely one thousand percent solid in their coverage

696
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 1: of THEMB eighty seven. No a fan and how they

697
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: are going to cover him. If it's a linebacker, they

698
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 1: better have safety's ready to help. If it's a safety,

699
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: physical at the line of scrimmage. He's a big, strong

700
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: guy and he can run. But if you jam him

701
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: a little bit and throw off the timing, that might

702
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: be enough to get locked off of looking at fan

703
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: and looking at somewhere else. They tried to throw corner

704
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 1: fade the fant last week, threw Tranquil who played safety

705
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: for Notre Dame that is now playing linebacker for the Charger,

706
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: stayed right into hip pocket and forced Lock to have

707
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: to throw a little bit further. A fan couldn't make

708
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: the catch. That's the kind of coverage it's got to be.

709
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 1: It's got to be somebody. If it's a linebacker, it's

710
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: got to be Zach. Can't be anybody else. If it's

711
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: a safety. It can be a number of different guys,

712
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: but Noah Fant can be a problem. He hasn't caught

713
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: it extremely well, but when he does catch it, it's

714
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 1: a problem because of that speed. So you've got to

715
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: be able to have a plan for Noah Fan and

716
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 1: how you're gonna cover him, and then when he does

717
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: get the ball, you gotta attack him like a running back.

718
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: You gotta bring everybody to the party to slow him down.

719
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 1: All right, flip it over to the offensive side of

720
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 1: the ball and start with number one block von Miller. Now,

721
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: he has been banged up and he didn't play last

722
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: week against the Chargers, and his quote was, I have

723
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: essentially an insane, crazy skill set and if I can't

724
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 1: really reach in that toolbox and use it, then I

725
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,800
Speaker 1: can't go out there. So he didn't against the Chargers.

726
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: But my guess he's gonna get back on the field.

727
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: There is no Derek Wolf, there is no Bradley Chubb.

728
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: Von Miller is the only guy to be able to

729
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: wreck this game. Do not allow it to happen, even

730
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,240
Speaker 1: if that means given Laramie little help, and he probably

731
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 1: doesn't line up on Laramy all that much. I would

732
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: imagine von wants to line up at that left outside

733
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 1: linebackers last left defensive end spot go against the Texans

734
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 1: right tackles, whether it's Rod Johnson or Chris Clark, and

735
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: he wants to be able to go at them. That

736
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: is gonna be a problem. So they've got to be

737
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,439
Speaker 1: able to take his game wrecking away. Last year, Vonon

738
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: had won sack. I thought Chubb was a bigger problem

739
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: last year. But in that game, you had Chubb, you

740
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,399
Speaker 1: had Vaughan, you had Watt, you had Clowney. In this game,

741
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: you'll have one of the four. But in that game,

742
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: Chubb had a sack, Clowney, Watt each had a sack,

743
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: and von had one sack. But only happened when the

744
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,160
Speaker 1: starting right tackle, Kennel Lamb went out of the game.

745
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: He went out of the game for a play when

746
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 1: injury went back in and on the play that he

747
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: went out, that's when Von got his sack. Hopefully a

748
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: right tackle stays in the game this week and he

749
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: gets no sex. Number two. Number thirty four is safety

750
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: Will Parks. He's a guy that I look at him.

751
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: He's not the best safety for the Broncos. They've got

752
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: two good ones the Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons. So

753
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:52,720
Speaker 1: Will Parks comes into the game. When he does, he'll

754
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,800
Speaker 1: play a pseudo linebackers safety sort of role. One of

755
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 1: the things they'd like to do with him is bring

756
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: him on the blitz. When thirty four is on the field,

757
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: A know he's out there, be anticipate that he's blitzing,

758
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 1: and he'll blitz from that nickel position. Remember Bradley Robi's

759
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: blitz last week. He was playing that nickel position and blitz.

760
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,439
Speaker 1: Typically Bradley plays in the outside. He jumped in there

761
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: to cover James White. Jumping into that role. He blitzed.

762
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: When thirty four is on the field, anticipate him coming.

763
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 1: He had a sack last week. The Chargers never accounted

764
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 1: for him, and he will run that blitz ed dontel.

765
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: Defense coordinator Vic Fangio will bring Will Parks, know where

766
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 1: he is and make sure he's accounted for in the protection.

767
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 1: Number three. This one goes to the Sean and this

768
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: one isn't so much about what he hasn't done, but

769
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:46,240
Speaker 1: continuing on with what he has done. Recognize coverage early,

770
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: deliver the rock quickly. The Shawn Watson did that last

771
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 1: week against the New England Patriots, and I think it

772
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 1: was a major component to moving the football against that

773
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 1: Patriots defense, and they did it all night long. He

774
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: saw what they were in. He knew exactly what he

775
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 1: wanted to He got the football out of his hands.

776
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 1: He didn't take sacks. He got he had two sacks

777
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 1: in which one sack was like him trying to scramble.

778
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: It were really only two true sacks and those both

779
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 1: came from blitzers. They adjusted for it. He saw it,

780
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: he recognized it. They didn't make that mistake in the

781
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,479
Speaker 1: second half, and they were sackless in the second half.

782
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: But Deshaun getting the ball out. It's a good defense

783
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: on the other side for the Broncos. Not the best

784
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: in the league, but a good defense, Top twelve in

785
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: total defense, fifth in passing defense, just based yardage wise.

786
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 1: So recognize the coverage early, deliver the rock quickly, and

787
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: move this offense. Number four. Continue to push the offense

788
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 1: down the field with calculated deep shots to any of

789
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,399
Speaker 1: the three wide receivers and whoever maybe the four coach

790
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: talked about him Friday bout Qt potentially being in this lineup,

791
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: and hopefully he's going to be maybe DeAndre Carter if

792
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: Key's not active. But push the ball down the field.

793
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: They did it to Will to touchdown. They didn't give

794
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: it to him, Kenny Touchdown, gave it to him. Push

795
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. Keep doing it. I know

796
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,319
Speaker 1: de Sean loves it. Everybody loves the deep ball. We

797
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: all love it, and they've got the personnel to be

798
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: able to do it. Keep doing it. And number five last,

799
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: and certainly not least. I don't want the Texans to

800
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: just win inside on the offensive line. I want them

801
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: to dominate from guard to guard, from Max Nick, Zach Sharping,

802
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: Martin Folden. I want those three guys to push Broncos

803
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: off the ball, get them off the ball. I know

804
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: people will look back at the Patriots game and go,

805
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: they didn't run the ball. Well, they must have not.

806
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: They got push, They got some good push. There were

807
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: times where they made nice blocks up front, especially guard

808
00:41:55,080 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: to guard, but didn't make could happen for whatever reason,

809
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: just running game couldn't get going. But I want this

810
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,479
Speaker 1: group to take their game to even different level. Make

811
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: sure the running backs see exactly what you've done and

812
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 1: occupying and knocking guys off the ball. So they make

813
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: the cut right behind you and we get back to

814
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: running this football. One of the things that worried me

815
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 1: in not running the ball exceedingly well against the Patriots

816
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: was last year. Last year, over the last five games

817
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: and started at Colts Loss here in week fourteen. They

818
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 1: ran for eighty eight eighty nine yards in that game,

819
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: which was well below what the Texas had been running.

820
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 1: They lost the game twenty one. The next week they

821
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,439
Speaker 1: went to New York. Couldn't run it again. Now Lamar

822
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 1: got hurt in that game, and they couldn't run at

823
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 1: all what the Philly in next week couldn't even They

824
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 1: did worse in Philly than they had done in New York.

825
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: The last game of the year, they played Jacksonville and

826
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: we ran the ball well numbers wise, but a lot

827
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: I had to do with the Sean and they got

828
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: to playoff game. Couldn't run at all. Now fell behind.

829
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: They had to throw the ball a lot, So that

830
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,399
Speaker 1: was part of it. But this is about the time

831
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: of the year. But the run game tailed off. It

832
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 1: cannot and it really starts with the guys in front,

833
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: in particular, that guard center guard combination working together, moving

834
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: guys off the ball. There's no Derek Wolf this week.

835
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: Shelby Harris is a pretty good player, and they've got

836
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: some good interior guys. But they've got to get push

837
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: off the ball, bump off the linebackers, occupy them and

838
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 1: let this running game really get going and take some

839
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 1: of the pressure off the seat of the passing game.

840
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: That's obviously one of the ways to do it. So

841
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: there you go. Those are your first Community Credit Union

842
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: first Glance keys to a win over the Denver Broncos.

843
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 1: We get back. I'm putting two segments together. Typically I

844
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 1: do predictions and I talk to Mark vandermer I'm gonna

845
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 1: talk to Mark VanderMeer and new predictions at the same time.

846
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: Next on Texas Access, we got one hour in the books,

847
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 1: one hour left to go. Here on a Friday edition

848
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 1: of Texas All Access from the Hunday Texans Radio studio.

849
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,240
Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Harris, and I am joined now

850
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: by the voice of your Houston Texans, the voice formally

00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 1: you sent out a video via text, which I would

855
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: love to put out amongst the peeps. I would love

856
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: for this to get out there because you're doing this

857
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: interview and you're at Central Michigan. I don't want to

858
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 1: give way your age, but you looked like you were

859
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: about twelve, and I was twelve. I was a kid

860
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: look older than. This was twenty five years ago. It

861
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 1: was a long time ago, and my questions are very

862
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 1: so do you think that you will be able to

863
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 1: run the football well on Saturday? I mean, I am

864
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: so scripted. I mean, the guy could have said I

865
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: have the cure for cancer and my next follow up

866
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: would have been what about next week's game, because I

867
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,839
Speaker 1: was going to ask that question come hell or high water,

868
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 1: which is a very rookie interview thing to do, interviewerre

869
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,760
Speaker 1: thing to do, where you just go to your question

870
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 1: and you're not really listening to the answer of whoever's talking.

871
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: But that those looked o K. I mean at Central

872
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: Michigan University back in the nineties, So it's all right.

873
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: The last time it's actually not the last time they

874
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 1: won the MAC, but that was a year they won

875
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,359
Speaker 1: the Mid American Conference championship twenty five years ago, and

876
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 1: there was no championship game, but it worked out that

877
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:18,359
Speaker 1: the last game was between the two teams to vie

878
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 1: for the title, Central Michigan and Bowling Green. And all

879
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 1: I'll say about that game is the punter decided to

880
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 1: fake a punt own he ran seventy yards for a

881
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: touchdown and he was not fleet of foot, so it

882
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 1: was in slow motion. He's at the fifty's the forty.

883
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: It was kind of like Tom Brady scrambling for fourteen

884
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 1: yards the other night slow motion breed. You could have

885
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: counted the yardage when Brady was scrambling. But the thing is,

886
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: as I'm standing down in the field as Brady scrambling,

887
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: I can see it. We're in man coverage in like

888
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to run for a while or

889
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 1: about ten yards, and that's all he needed was I

890
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: think he needed seven or eight he got He got ten.

891
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean, if that was and then slid right into somebody,

892
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 1: if that was Lamar Jackson or to shut They're the

893
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 1: end zone by the time he's sliding their thirty forty

894
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 1: yards down field. Now, each every Friday, I do a

895
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:13,320
Speaker 1: segment that I predict all the games straight up and

896
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: against the spread, and I usually do a segment with you.

897
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: But this week, because I've got such a jam pack

898
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 1: show with DeAndre Carter with Drew and our deep Slent

899
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,919
Speaker 1: interview of the week, I kind of needed to put

900
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 1: two segments together. And I thought, all right, let's do it.

901
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,320
Speaker 1: Let's put these two segments together where you and I

902
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 1: are together and we pick every game straight up and

903
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 1: against the spread. Now you don't want to say against

904
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 1: the spread. I understand that I do it, and I

905
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 1: always say this, only do it to talk about the games.

906
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 1: It's just a kind of fun way to see how

907
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 1: the public perception looks at these games for entertainment purposes only.

908
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 1: So I try to run through all of them, but

909
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 1: we'll hit the ones that are at least matter because

910
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,800
Speaker 1: Dolphins Jets, and we can fly through those later on. Okay,

911
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: Panthers Falcons. This is one of those to start off

912
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,880
Speaker 1: with Panthers Falcons in Atlanta. The Panthers no longer have

913
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 1: Ron Rivera's head coach. All right, what's the line about

914
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,720
Speaker 1: the Falcons are favored by three? Yeah? All right, Falcons

915
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:10,240
Speaker 1: win this thing out right, and no Panthers are done. Yeah,

916
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: I don't think that they weren't playing for Rivera the

917
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,959
Speaker 1: way the Cowboys appear to me. And I can't speak

918
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 1: for them not playing for Garrett, because come on, the

919
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: Cowboys got a ton of talent here. But I think

920
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,600
Speaker 1: that the Panthers have other issues. And you know, you're

921
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 1: still working with a Kyle Allen that the leagu's catching

922
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: up to a little bit McCaffrey. Are things catching up

923
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: to him? I mean, everybody knows. I wonder if McCaffrey's

924
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 1: going to get the ball on this right. Odds are

925
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 1: he will in some way, shape or form. Mark. I

926
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,359
Speaker 1: don't know that I can remember seeing this, and I'm

927
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: about to tell you Ron Rivera was let go on Tuesday. Tuesday.

928
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 1: On Wednesday, he did an interview in the building after

929
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 1: the day after. He was like, I don't think I've

930
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 1: ever seen that before. You know, it reminds me of

931
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: it's very different because he's had a lot more success,

932
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 1: but dom Capers, Yeah, what he was let go here

933
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: in two thousand and five, really probably two thousand and

934
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: six early, yeah, because past New Year's Day. But he

935
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 1: did his radio show that night. I mean, we did

936
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,879
Speaker 1: the radio show with Dom Capers that evening Rich Lord

937
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: and I hosted it and Don was in the building

938
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 1: to win the show, and he was wonderful and he

939
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 1: knew it and he went to Miami right after that

940
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 1: and actually had a great year coordinating that defense, and

941
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,919
Speaker 1: Jason Taylor was the defensive player of the year under

942
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 1: Dom Capers. Unbelievable, I was. And the thing is, you say,

943
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 1: Ron Riveriously, Dom Kapers, that's the thing you think about

944
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: is class professional, right? I mean just I mean the

945
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 1: number of people that spoke so highly at Ron Rivera

946
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: is crazy. Okay, this this is a big one. Baltimore

947
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:49,280
Speaker 1: ravens or ten and two. They go to Buffalo. Okay,

948
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: Buffalo's nine and three. There's a lot riding on this.

949
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:56,319
Speaker 1: And how about this on the road in Western New York.

950
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 1: What's the weather report? Baltimore is a six point favorite,

951
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:04,799
Speaker 1: and they apparently are expecting some sort of weather in

952
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,520
Speaker 1: this one. Precipitation in Western New York mostly cloudy, well

953
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,719
Speaker 1: the high of forty four, allow of twenty seven, but

954
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 1: they it does sound like there is gonna be a

955
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: little bit of weather, maybe not like it was in

956
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:20,280
Speaker 1: Baltimore last week where it was a monsoon but Baltimore

957
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: favored by six. Okay, here's the deal. Vegas loves them

958
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 1: some Ravens. Baltimore was put up twenty points last week

959
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: in a win, right, so I know there was weather

960
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: involved and certainly it was a factor. San Francisco quote

961
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: held the Ravens to twenty twenties, a big number in

962
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: the NFL. We always talk about. That's kind of like

963
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: the Mendoza line up and down. Probably not a good

964
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 1: comparison to Mendoza because that's a different kind of deal.

965
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 1: It's it's that's the medium line right there. So what

966
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: I'm thinking here, Buffalo with all that defense and Josh

967
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:53,799
Speaker 1: Allen with that, I can make a play wacky productive,

968
00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,320
Speaker 1: an unpredictable way running ability. Because this has the highest

969
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 1: rushing total of two quarterbacks meeting in an NFL game,

970
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: I think it history. I'm going Buffalo for the outright

971
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:08,280
Speaker 1: Johnny wow right into the stunned the Ravens this week. Okay,

972
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 1: so if that happens, let's say that happens, yeah, and

973
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 1: Buffalo goes and beats New England. The other two games

974
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,799
Speaker 1: are a cakewalk for Buffalo. Yes, you ends up being

975
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: the number one seed in the AFC. Yeah, the AFCED

976
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,959
Speaker 1: number one seed would be Buffalo. We gotta worry about

977
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 1: them now, Yeah, because like I have my dream scenario

978
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: here of meltdowns at the page the Ravens, but the

979
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: meltown with the Patriots would include the Bills probably rising up.

980
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,760
Speaker 1: So we almost need the Ravens to win. Just imagine

981
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:42,760
Speaker 1: like after all that, Houston has to go to done done.

982
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: I think I think the Ravens will win, but that

983
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,439
Speaker 1: six is too much. I think the Ravens will win,

984
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 1: but the Bills will keep it close, so they'll get

985
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 1: inside the number. You're calling the Ravens straight out. Bengals.

986
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,000
Speaker 1: Browns in Cleveland clus favor by seven. Uh, Bengals just

987
00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 1: to pick it Beals cover Yeah, Beals, I mean gets

988
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: to seven eighty adults back, he'll do some good things.

989
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: I think Cleveland winds but gets inside the seven Redskins

990
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 1: Packers in green Bay, green Bay's favored by twelve and

991
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: a half. Yikes. Next, Okay, this one includes one of

992
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: the teams vying for a wild card one week. I

993
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: think it's one week maybe two weeks before they play

994
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 1: green Bay. The Lions take on the Vikings in Minnesota.

995
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 1: Minnesota's favored by twelve and a half, David a half.

996
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: That's a rich number. That's too rich. Look. Look, if

997
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: I was one of those people, and I'm not, I

998
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,360
Speaker 1: don't do this, you know, but I would say the

999
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 1: Lions are gonna get closer than that. But the Vikings

1000
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 1: gotta win this game. The Vikings will win. I think

1001
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 1: got twelve and a half's too rich for me. I'd

1002
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: take the Viks to win. The Lions get inside it. Okay,

1003
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 1: here you go. Noon game in New Orleans. Niners Saints.

1004
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 1: All right, Nighters come across country two weeks in a row.

1005
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,440
Speaker 1: But they practiced at that IMG Academy right down in Orlando.

1006
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: They stayed there, so so they're really not coming across again.

1007
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: They're used to the East Coast time zone and all

1008
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: of that. Saint New Orleans craziness. Saints two and a

1009
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,719
Speaker 1: half point FA, so Vegas season is pretty much even. Well,

1010
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,600
Speaker 1: of course, because the Niners are really good. They're coming

1011
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 1: off a loss and they need it. They gotta have

1012
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 1: this one. They gotta Seattle's right there. They gotta have

1013
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: this one. That's the problem. I'm gonna go. Niners win

1014
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 1: the game. They right, yes, they win the game. Okay, well,

1015
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 1: let me add another piece of little information here. Wait,

1016
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: what did I What did I miss? Ro He Mostart,

1017
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 1: who is one of the star running backs for the

1018
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, has said it won't really be that

1019
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: loud in the Superdome because the forty nine Ers fans

1020
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 1: are gonna fill it up. Yikes. I mean they'll be

1021
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 1: There will be some forty nine Ers fans, but guess

1022
00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 1: what forty thousand Saints fans, and it's gonna be more

1023
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 1: than Yeah, of course, still make more noise than your

1024
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 1: average NFL crowd. You're gonna bring a few thousand forty

1025
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 1: nine Ers fans in there, Yeah, don't. It's not like

1026
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: I want to Dallas and bring in the battle Red

1027
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:57,840
Speaker 1: to Dallas. It's not like that. I think at home,

1028
00:52:58,360 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: I think the Saints want to make a statement. I

1029
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: think the Saints will win it, and they'll they'll cover

1030
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 1: the two and a half. I mean, it's almost straight up,

1031
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: it's almost to pick them. Sorry, should beat the Ravens

1032
00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: last week, Johnny, Let's go to this one because it's

1033
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:14,400
Speaker 1: two teams, one where we've played twice, one we're about

1034
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,760
Speaker 1: to play in a couple of weeks. The Colts travel

1035
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 1: to Tampa Bay. Yeah, and this is how different this

1036
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: game is than maybe even five six weeks ago. Tampa

1037
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:29,799
Speaker 1: Bay at home is favored by three. Yeah, and the

1038
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,359
Speaker 1: Colts are all banged up. The Colts are banged up.

1039
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 1: Marla Mack does appear he'll go back to the city

1040
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 1: in which he played his college ball. That's good for them,

1041
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,320
Speaker 1: that's good. But no Hilton, No, hebron hebron out for

1042
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,200
Speaker 1: the year, son Chester Rogers alf for the year two

1043
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,120
Speaker 1: and Hilton doesn't look like he's gonna play. Yes, So

1044
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 1: those are those are three top guys catching the football

1045
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 1: for the Colts. And this is it for the Colts.

1046
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:53,879
Speaker 1: They don't win this. Yeah, this last us all over.

1047
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 1: It's all over for them. I still kind of like

1048
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 1: the Bucks in this one. And maybe my heart is

1049
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 1: picking and my emotions and my desires, and that's what

1050
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 1: I want to see. I want to see the cults miserable.

1051
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,239
Speaker 1: Thank you. So you're taking the Bucks to win, I'll

1052
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,200
Speaker 1: take the Bucks. I'm with you. I'm gonna take the Bucks.

1053
00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:10,360
Speaker 1: I don't I know, I shouldn't. I know, we both shouldn't.

1054
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 1: We shouldn't be pounding the Colts. The Colts and then

1055
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,440
Speaker 1: they lose. But I'm a little scared of the Buccaneers,

1056
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you, because of what they can

1057
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 1: do with a pass rush and the way they can

1058
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:25,279
Speaker 1: sling it around. They worry me. They want a couple

1059
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 1: of a row. Nown I was hoping they'd be dead

1060
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 1: by this time. I was thinking I was hoping so.

1061
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,959
Speaker 1: But this, this ending swing of the Texans schedule looks

1062
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 1: a whole lot harder on paper than it did a

1063
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,919
Speaker 1: couple of months ago. This is supposed to be a break. Yeah, yeah,

1064
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 1: well there's never a break, and we know that, but

1065
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,880
Speaker 1: it was looking like it was gonna be more of

1066
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 1: one than it is. Denver is not, you know, fear

1067
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,800
Speaker 1: free of me? Okay, Like this team has a lot

1068
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: going for it that can give you a lot of

1069
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: problems on Sunday, But I know we're not talking about

1070
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: that right now. Go ahead, Okay. The three o'clock window, yeah,

1071
00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: AFC South things. We just mentioned one. Obviously we'll play

1072
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: in the newtone window. We favored by nine, But I

1073
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:02,800
Speaker 1: never picked that game because I'll never go against my

1074
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 1: heart in my head all that kind of stuff, don't.

1075
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:07,799
Speaker 1: I don't even look at the line. Honestly, sometimes it's good.

1076
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: Uh quickly? Do you give the Jags a shot against

1077
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 1: its Chargers in Duval County? Chargers favorite by three? I

1078
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,720
Speaker 1: totally give them a shot. The Chargers are a mess

1079
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: and they find extraordinary ways to lose. And they've done

1080
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 1: it for years. They have found ways to lose. I

1081
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:25,840
Speaker 1: think the Jags are done, but there might be a

1082
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 1: Minshew dead cat bounce here later in the season, and

1083
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 1: maybe they get it done against the Chargers. Wait, what's

1084
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:35,279
Speaker 1: the Vegas sense on this one? Chargers three, Chargers by

1085
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: three Jags? How about this one? Yeah, Tennessee flying across country?

1086
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 1: All right, this is a big one to take on

1087
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 1: the Raiders. What is What are the boys in the

1088
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 1: desert think of this one? What do you think? All right?

1089
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: I well, first of all, what would what would you

1090
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 1: do know these two teams in the way that things

1091
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 1: have gone lately? Think you gotta think that Tennessee by two,

1092
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:59,760
Speaker 1: You're you're close. Tennessee by three, Tennessee? I could you could?

1093
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 1: You know? I could still pick games after all these years.

1094
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: It's hard to I mean, it's a lot easier to

1095
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 1: figure out the NFL spreads. I'm gonna start a new

1096
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: show called Aces High with Mark Van No, I'm not

1097
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 1: gonna do that and the Mark vander Er Dancers, d

1098
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 1: D d D. It's a lot, but it's some more

1099
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,480
Speaker 1: difficult to do the college spreads because those are all

1100
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 1: over the place, over the place. The NFL ones are

1101
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,439
Speaker 1: usually you know, ten on down, but Tennessee by three

1102
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 1: Titans Raiders. You give the Raiders a shot and bounts

1103
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: back after scoring to give them a big shot here.

1104
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 1: But I can't, like if I was actually doing this,

1105
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,719
Speaker 1: like you know, this is gonna count and lives hanging

1106
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: the balance, and I had to pick this one. I'm

1107
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 1: picking the Titans, right, but I want the Raiders so badly.

1108
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: Please get it straightened out, Gruden, Come on, Derek, play well.

1109
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 1: We need you to beat the Titans. Give us a solid,

1110
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 1: do us a solid? Yes, come on. And for that reason,

1111
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick the Raiders in the upset. I'm gonna

1112
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 1: pick Raiders in an upset over Tennessee at home. Okay,

1113
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 1: hopefully that'll happen. Okay, Big one Sunday afternoon, we'll probably

1114
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 1: be up in our office is watching a little bit

1115
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:05,320
Speaker 1: of this. Well, Red Zone will be watching Titans, Raiders, Chargers, Jags,

1116
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,600
Speaker 1: and then the Kansas City Chiefs at eight and four.

1117
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: Go to New England at tenant two, And how about this,

1118
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 1: what's the desert take on this one? New England's favorite

1119
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 1: by three? That's it. Yeah, that's all two game difference

1120
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,840
Speaker 1: with these two teams. In Vegas. Thinks these two teams

1121
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,880
Speaker 1: are about even. I think that the Patriots have some problems.

1122
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: This just him and Brady with you know, he's got

1123
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 1: the injury report, um tab of a toe and what else? Elbow? Yeah,

1124
00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 1: the elbow we've known about. Yeah, the toe is new.

1125
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:46,479
Speaker 1: It happened on that long run. To toe is no joke, John.

1126
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: If it's a turf toe, and we don't know if

1127
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: it is, but if it is, as you know, that's

1128
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: a bad injury. So that makes them even less mobile.

1129
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,600
Speaker 1: That's not good. Now, the Chiefs don't appear to have

1130
00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,280
Speaker 1: the defense to really get the job. But they're getting better.

1131
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:02,920
Speaker 1: It's getting better. It's looking a little bit better. But

1132
00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:05,800
Speaker 1: they certainly have the offense to do the job. And

1133
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: I think that they have an offense that it's not

1134
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 1: defense proof, but they can move the football and they

1135
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 1: will and I think the Chiefs are gonna win this

1136
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 1: game in Foxborough. And the Chiefs have one at Foxborough,

1137
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,480
Speaker 1: which which is much different than other teams beating them

1138
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 1: on the road. The Chiefs have one in Foxborough. I'm

1139
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: gonna go against you on this one because I do

1140
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,160
Speaker 1: think the Patriots bounce back. Yeah, I'm not gonna use

1141
00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 1: the dead cat thing you said earlier, but I do

1142
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 1: think the Patriots will will rise up and win these

1143
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,960
Speaker 1: games that Gillette, they will be I want to call

1144
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 1: them fugas, but I think that they're gonna go. They're

1145
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,479
Speaker 1: gonna go in thirteen and three into the playoffs. They'll

1146
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 1: be the number two seed in AFC at thirteen and three,

1147
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: and they'll they'll get wrong. I hope I'm wrong, but

1148
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: I think that's what's gonna happen. Just lose out, but

1149
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: I don't. I think in the playoffs they won't. I

1150
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 1: think ten and six sounds like a good record for

1151
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:51,960
Speaker 1: the POW. I would love ten and six for that.

1152
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: And then Sunday Night, last game. Sunday Night, the Seahawks

1153
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,960
Speaker 1: that tended to travel south to the Kyle Seum to

1154
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:03,919
Speaker 1: take on the Rams at seven and five. Vegas says

1155
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 1: the Rams are favored by one. You know, every week

1156
00:59:06,480 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 1: Seattle flirts with disaster, and you know, like last week

1157
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 1: they had that weird pick six off the deflection, and

1158
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:15,320
Speaker 1: you know, they have a lot of strange things happening

1159
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:17,959
Speaker 1: to that, but they pull out games. They're a winning team.

1160
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,640
Speaker 1: They find ways to win the Rams. I know they're

1161
00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 1: coming off the win over Arizona, but it wasn't that convincing.

1162
00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 1: I gotta go Seahawks in La. I'm gonna go with

1163
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 1: you now, and I think Seahawks in La. It's a

1164
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 1: night game, and that La. You know, there's certain there

1165
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:31,440
Speaker 1: are certain players on the Seahawks defense. They'll show up

1166
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,680
Speaker 1: during a night game, certain and they'll play very well.

1167
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 1: I think I know who you're talking about. And we

1168
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 1: know that that's no real home field advantage fell Rams,

1169
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 1: not at all. They'll probably be more Seahawks fans and

1170
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 1: Rams fans. Mark appreciate it. Thanks Johnny. Up. Next, John

1171
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:46,640
Speaker 1: Weeks sits down for a deep slant interview of the

1172
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 1: week brought to you by Exfinity. Let's jump right back

1173
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: in with our deep slant interview the Week brought to

1174
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 1: you by Exfinity is dB City with John Weeks welcome in.

1175
00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: It's been a while since we chat. I'm excited to

1176
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: be here. But if you like you're making fun of

1177
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: every time I see you, you saying when are we

1178
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:05,840
Speaker 1: going to do an interview? And I feel like you're

1179
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 1: mocking me because you actually don't really like maybe a

1180
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: little bit, maybe just a little bit. But I enjoy

1181
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,680
Speaker 1: our time together. So I'm excited to be here. I

1182
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 1: am excited to have you here. You have snapped on

1183
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 1: every field goal attempt, extra point in punt for Houston

1184
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: since signing as a free agent in two thousand and ten.

1185
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 1: I find that outstanding and a little hard to believe.

1186
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 1: How about for yourself, how do you feel knowing that

1187
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 1: you've never missed a snap on any of those plays?

1188
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's it's an honor, really, Um. It

1189
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,120
Speaker 1: just it just proves to me that you know, I'm

1190
01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: good at my craft, at my coaches and teammates trust me, um.

1191
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: And the other thing. As a snapper, you always want

1192
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 1: to be durable and dependable, and I know I've been

1193
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,640
Speaker 1: able to do that and when called upon, I've been

1194
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 1: able to go out there and then perform at my best.

1195
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 1: So I'm just thankful for most thankful for the opportunity. Continually,

1196
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm still thankful for the opportunity to go out there

1197
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,840
Speaker 1: and do it today. And I love going out there

1198
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: with those guys and compete. I think that's why it

1199
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 1: was so surprising in Week seven at Indianapolists when you

1200
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: got banged up a little bit early in the game

1201
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:05,040
Speaker 1: and you were limping badly, but you stayed in the game, Like,

1202
01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:08,240
Speaker 1: walk me through that, because was that probably the toughest

1203
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 1: thing that you've had to physically play through. Yeah, you know,

1204
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: That's just one of those situations where I've always told myself,

1205
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: as long as I'm not going to hurt my team

1206
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 1: and I still feel I can go out there and

1207
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 1: perform my job to the best of my abilities and

1208
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:20,880
Speaker 1: be there for my guys, that I'm going to do it.

1209
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: It was a situation I unfortunately rolled my ankle pretty bad,

1210
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:26,480
Speaker 1: you know, hurt to put a little bit of weight

1211
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 1: on it, but I was still able to after the

1212
01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:31,560
Speaker 1: guys the training staff got me all taped up to

1213
01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 1: go out there and do my job and be there

1214
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,360
Speaker 1: for my guys when they needed me. So I've always

1215
01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:38,360
Speaker 1: told myself again, if I can do that, that's what

1216
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 1: I was going to do, So there was never any

1217
01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 1: second thought about it. I mean, you're very really tough.

1218
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: That's just a sign if I was like, how are

1219
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,919
Speaker 1: you going to run in coverage? Well, those guys are great.

1220
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 1: We have a fantastic coverage unit and a good pointer

1221
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,080
Speaker 1: right now, and they didn't require me to do any

1222
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,479
Speaker 1: type of running. So I really appreciate what those guys

1223
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 1: did for me. So you bring up a good point

1224
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: with special teams. I was looking up some stats second

1225
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL and punt return average and kickoff return average,

1226
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 1: so allowing just two point nine yards per return on

1227
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 1: punts and about eighteen point four yards per kickoff return.

1228
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 1: What about these special teams under Seely and Smith. I mean,

1229
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,080
Speaker 1: they're like this dynamic duo of special teams out there.

1230
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: How strong are you feeling about this? Yeah? You know what,

1231
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 1: we feel great in that room. You know, we know that.

1232
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:23,800
Speaker 1: I think going into any Sunday, you know we match

1233
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 1: up well with teams that we have an advantage with

1234
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 1: the guys that we have in our room, a bunch

1235
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:29,920
Speaker 1: of guys that love to do what they do, to

1236
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:31,720
Speaker 1: play special teams, to do what they're asked to do,

1237
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:33,560
Speaker 1: and a bunch of guys that work hard at it.

1238
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,439
Speaker 1: You know, we know that we can provide a spark

1239
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:37,920
Speaker 1: for our team when they need it. If we need

1240
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 1: a big play, we know Brian can put them inside

1241
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,600
Speaker 1: the five. We know that Kymy can give us a

1242
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 1: good ball on kickoff, and our guys are gonna go

1243
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 1: down there and make a tackle. So I think right

1244
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 1: now everything's going well in that room. We all understand

1245
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 1: that we can get better, and we're all working to

1246
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 1: get better every week. And I think that's what special

1247
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 1: about that room is we know we can get better,

1248
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:56,280
Speaker 1: and that's what we're trying to do. I'm gonna get

1249
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,479
Speaker 1: to Brian Anger the punter in just a minute, but first,

1250
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,320
Speaker 1: what about the idea India of special teams. You've been

1251
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,440
Speaker 1: here long enough to remember when special teams was just

1252
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:06,320
Speaker 1: where rookies went to play, you know, before they can

1253
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 1: get on the field on offense or defense. And now

1254
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,800
Speaker 1: it seems like the identity of special teams is very

1255
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 1: much its own. You've got guys that pride themselves on

1256
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: really contributing that A J. Moore, Guys like Taiwan Jones

1257
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:18,640
Speaker 1: and Dylan Cole before he got hurt, that really they

1258
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 1: that's what they wanted to do, That's what they were

1259
01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:23,000
Speaker 1: out there to do. How do you feel about that,

1260
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:25,600
Speaker 1: how much that has changed this aspect of Yeah, absolutely,

1261
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:27,640
Speaker 1: I think that's something that you know, since kosch Obrian's

1262
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,479
Speaker 1: been here, he's stressed he you know, he's talked about

1263
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,320
Speaker 1: the importance of special teams and how guys roles, you know,

1264
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 1: if they're not starters on offense and defense, that their

1265
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 1: roles are going to be on special teams. And we've

1266
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 1: got a great group of guys who have embraced that.

1267
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 1: You know, you mentioned a few, but you can go

1268
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: up and down our special teams units with the impact

1269
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 1: players that we have, Guys that have embraced their role,

1270
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 1: understand why they're here, how they contribute, how they can

1271
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 1: contribute to this team and help this team win football

1272
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,720
Speaker 1: games and ultimately get to the big game at the end.

1273
01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:56,600
Speaker 1: That's everybody's goal and that's what we're striving to do.

1274
01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 1: All right, Let's get to Brian Anger. He joined early

1275
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 1: on in the season. You spent some time with him

1276
01:04:01,720 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 1: in training camp, and then obviously he became the punter

1277
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:07,800
Speaker 1: early on. What was that transition like for you? Was

1278
01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:10,440
Speaker 1: it tough to sort of switch punchers like that. For you,

1279
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 1: what are some of the challenges as a long snapper

1280
01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 1: to work on that unit? Yeah, you know, I mean

1281
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think for us, because Brian

1282
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,160
Speaker 1: was with us in training camp, I don't think it

1283
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 1: was as much of a transition as maybe some people think.

1284
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:25,960
Speaker 1: You know, me and Brian worked really well together. Me,

1285
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,680
Speaker 1: Brian and Kaymie had plenty of reps during training camp

1286
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 1: and during the preseason together, so it was just getting

1287
01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 1: used to each other again. And that took maybe a week,

1288
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:35,960
Speaker 1: maybe two weeks tops, if you want to be super

1289
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:38,280
Speaker 1: picky about it. But you know, I feel like us

1290
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,280
Speaker 1: three together, we're doing a good job, but we enjoy

1291
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:43,040
Speaker 1: each other and we're having fun out there. And Brian's

1292
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:45,680
Speaker 1: kicking the ball. He's doing a great job. He's pinning

1293
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:47,680
Speaker 1: on those guys deep and on our defense. It's hard

1294
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 1: to drive the length of the field. So you know,

1295
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,200
Speaker 1: we just Brian keeps doing what he's doing. We're going

1296
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: to be in really good ship. He's second in the

1297
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,080
Speaker 1: NFL and punting yards and he had that seventy one

1298
01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 1: yard or a few weeks back. Let's not telling Let's

1299
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:00,800
Speaker 1: not tell him do you ever. I know we used

1300
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 1: to joke about when Shane Leckler was here, how many

1301
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 1: questions before we start asking? So I have to ask

1302
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:09,440
Speaker 1: you about Shane Lechler. Do you ever bring him up

1303
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 1: to Brian Angler to the guy's like, oh, when Shane

1304
01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 1: was here, this is how he can talk. You know,

1305
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,480
Speaker 1: everybody's different, you know, and Shane was a fantastic pro

1306
01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:18,760
Speaker 1: and he taught me a lot of things and taught

1307
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,120
Speaker 1: me a lot of things about punting. But Brian's the

1308
01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:23,280
Speaker 1: same way. Brian's a great pro. Brian's been doing this

1309
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 1: for a long time. So there's nothing true. There's nothing

1310
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,479
Speaker 1: that you know, I can say to Brian that Brian

1311
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 1: doesn't already himself, know so I just kind of back off,

1312
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 1: you know, if it involves maybe location of a snap

1313
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:37,160
Speaker 1: or how I can help him, you know, with an

1314
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 1: angle of a directional kike or something like that, me

1315
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: and him, or all about it. We talked in depth

1316
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 1: about it, try to figure out how to make the

1317
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: job is easy between the both of us. But when

1318
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,400
Speaker 1: it comes up here punting, I'm a long snap or

1319
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 1: not a punter. I let the expert do that and

1320
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,240
Speaker 1: I just watch. I didn't know if there was some

1321
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:53,480
Speaker 1: advice being offered there. All right, You've done a lot

1322
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 1: of things obviously many times being here for so many years,

1323
01:05:56,600 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 1: but you got a first recently with the win over

1324
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots, first time to get to beat them. How

1325
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 1: special was that for you? Is that up there in

1326
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:06,440
Speaker 1: one of your career highlights so far? And what was

1327
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 1: it like after the win for some of the veterans

1328
01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 1: like years, you know what it was. It was a

1329
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,760
Speaker 1: great win, it really was, and it was nice to

1330
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:15,120
Speaker 1: kind of get that monkey off the back. I think

1331
01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 1: I've played them eight or nine times since I've been there,

1332
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 1: and unfortunately, you know, until recently, we hadn't got one

1333
01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 1: on them. So it was definitely nice to get that win.

1334
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:25,120
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it was it

1335
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:27,200
Speaker 1: was just that it was another win that this team

1336
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:30,480
Speaker 1: really prepared for, hard, went out there, played as a team,

1337
01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 1: and we're able to get a good win against a

1338
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:35,640
Speaker 1: very good team. So that's kind of how I've approached

1339
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:37,080
Speaker 1: It's kind of how I've looked at it. I think

1340
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:38,560
Speaker 1: that's kind of how our guys have looked at it.

1341
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,080
Speaker 1: We understand the challenge that we have this week against

1342
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 1: a really good Broncos team, so as much as we

1343
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:45,720
Speaker 1: enjoyed that win, we have moved on and we're on

1344
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 1: to Denver now, and we gotta get ready for a

1345
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,080
Speaker 1: good team coming in here. All right, Sunday, the Denver

1346
01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,200
Speaker 1: Broncos come here. You get to see another old favorite,

1347
01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:54,680
Speaker 1: Kareem Jackson, and you guys get to wear your cleats.

1348
01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 1: Might cause my cleats, which I wanted to ask you

1349
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,920
Speaker 1: about your cause, how you chose it and why it's

1350
01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: so important to you. Yeah. So first, it's going to

1351
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:03,919
Speaker 1: be weird to see Kaream across the field. It really

1352
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:05,720
Speaker 1: will be. You know, me and Kaream came in together.

1353
01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:08,640
Speaker 1: I have tremendous respect for him. He was the longest

1354
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: ten year in Texan right now, Oh we came in together. Yeah,

1355
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 1: we're both two. You were so possessor I am, I am,

1356
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 1: But UM, I have a tremendous amount of respect for Karem,

1357
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 1: love him, love his family. So I'm glad that he's

1358
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 1: doing good things over there and wish him nothing but

1359
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:28,440
Speaker 1: the best. But might cause my cleads a fantastic opportunity

1360
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:31,920
Speaker 1: for us to kind of spread awareness for our different organizations. UM.

1361
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:35,640
Speaker 1: I've partnered with two this year, UM and Basically they

1362
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,440
Speaker 1: kind of play off each other. One. Me and my

1363
01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 1: wife have been very involved with Child Advocates since we've

1377
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:21,840
Speaker 1: if many people know the story behind Kirson's Crew. UM.

1378
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:25,640
Speaker 1: Kirston was actually one of the first She attended one

1379
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:27,600
Speaker 1: of the first shopping sprees that we ever had. I

1380
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,599
Speaker 1: think she was maybe six when she came to our

1381
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:34,360
Speaker 1: I think second one, and it was an event that

1382
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 1: her grandmother told us inspired her to basically want to

1383
01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,800
Speaker 1: do the same thing. So she has the past four

1384
01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:44,760
Speaker 1: or five years created an amazing organization called Kirston's Crew

1385
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,920
Speaker 1: where she does the same thing. She provides shopping sprees

1386
01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 1: for a bunch of different foster kids in the Houston area. Um.

1387
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,639
Speaker 1: They've done amazing things over the past four or five years.

1388
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:56,680
Speaker 1: She's not very old. This is a I believe this

1389
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 1: young woman is a freshman in high school. She is

1390
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,720
Speaker 1: an awesome, awesome young woman with a huge heart. UM.

1391
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,320
Speaker 1: So we're we're happy and honored to have her be

1392
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:10,120
Speaker 1: a part of the cause for my cleats. That's such

1393
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:12,679

01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,559
Speaker 1: He wasn't playing, y'all. He's really feeling the Grinch. What's

1446
01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 1: the what's that saying? It's not what's under the tree,

1447
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:04,439
Speaker 1: but who is around it? Mary Ann Wow. Hey, that's

1448
01:12:04,439 --> 01:12:08,880

1451
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 1: a very jolly guy. I mean, this is the thing

1452
01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:18,800
Speaker 1: we all grew up loving. Right first day after Thanksgiving

1453
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:22,240
Speaker 1: is when Christmas music will be blaring. Okay, as far

1454
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:25,000
Speaker 1: as decorations go, you know, we normally wait until about

1455
01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,599
Speaker 1: two three weeks before because we get Grahama to send

1456
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,880
Speaker 1: us up a little three foot live tree every year.

1457
01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:33,240
Speaker 1: It's a moss. Live trees are the thing. I unpack it,

1458
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 1: you know, dress it up, get the little skirt on there.

1459
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,400
Speaker 1: I've always had three. I've always had three stockings, one

1460
01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:40,599
Speaker 1: for me, one for my mom because she always comes

1461
01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:42,640
Speaker 1: down around Christmas, one for my boy Kenda lamp. Well,

1462
01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:44,200
Speaker 1: this year I'll probably have to have one for Titus

1463
01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 1: and Max, but you know they're rookies. They aren't going

1464
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:47,479
Speaker 1: to know any better. You know, they sort of live

1465
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:49,320
Speaker 1: in the building. So maybe I'll have four stockings this year.

1466
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,000

1556
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 1: a coach that you talk with after an NFL game?

1557
01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:46,759
Speaker 1: Two minutes ago? I got a mentor, older brother, Eddie Smith. Okay,

1558
01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:49,240
Speaker 1: talked to him every day after the game. He'll you know,

1559
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:51,400
Speaker 1: he watches it. He'll give me his critiques and everything.

1560
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,400
Speaker 1: So Eddie, that's cool. You know when we had Taiwan

1561
01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 1: in here, he said his younger brother because he's one

1562
01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,559
Speaker 1: of I think seven or eight, but his next youngest brother,

1563
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:01,559
Speaker 1: the one that's next to him. He said, he sends him.

1564
01:18:01,840 --> 01:18:04,880
Speaker 1: The brother sends Taiwan a video message before each game

1565
01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:07,320
Speaker 1: with like yeah they go back. So it's cool that

1566
01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:09,599
Speaker 1: you know, you guys have both chosen brothers. What would

1567
01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: your career be if you were a football player. I

1568
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,120
Speaker 1: wasn't a football player, so I went to college to

1569
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,519
Speaker 1: be a sports anchor broadcaster. So, okay, I can take

1570
01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:22,400
Speaker 1: some tips from you get tips, but that probably that

1571
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 1: are coaching. Okay, all right, okay, what's the first job

1572
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:30,080
Speaker 1: you ever had? The first job outside of sports that

1573
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:32,680
Speaker 1: I ever had was substitute teaching. What was what was

1574
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:34,720
Speaker 1: that like? We've read that. I read the story. It's

1575
01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 1: a great story about it, but what in a nutshell

1576
01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:39,320
Speaker 1: the reader's digest version, what was that like? It was

1577
01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:41,560
Speaker 1: fine and what an incredible experience. I wouldn't give it

1578
01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,639
Speaker 1: back for the world at the time of my life.

1579
01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:45,880
Speaker 1: It was something that I could do that allowed me

1580
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 1: to keep training stuff for to for workouts for the NFL.

1581
01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:51,280
Speaker 1: Gave me the flexibility and my schedule to be able

1582
01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:54,960
Speaker 1: to still do that. But the lessons, the kids that

1583
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:56,720
Speaker 1: I got to meet, kids that I got to touch,

1584
01:18:56,760 --> 01:18:59,680
Speaker 1: an impact was it was incredibly dope And you can

1585
01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,320
Speaker 1: tell like reading those stories. Those kids got a lot

1586
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 1: from you. I mean, I can't name a single substitute

1587
01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,679
Speaker 1: teacher ever, but I guarantee you those kids are always

1588
01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 1: gonna know about remember you. Yeah, And it was I

1589
01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:12,080
Speaker 1: was in a situation where I was able to be

1590
01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:14,559
Speaker 1: at the same school the entire time, so I got

1591
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:16,680
Speaker 1: to interact with the same kids, you know, on a

1592
01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 1: daily basis, and they knew I played football and everything,

1593
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:21,760
Speaker 1: and with one of the probably my favorite thing about

1594
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:24,439
Speaker 1: our job is the platform that we have to be

1595
01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:27,680
Speaker 1: able to reach kids. And you know, you go up

1596
01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:30,639
Speaker 1: so tell kids you're a National Football League player. They're

1597
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:32,720
Speaker 1: gonna listen to what you gotta say. Taking that time

1598
01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 1: to and still some knowledge them and something that I

1599
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:37,160
Speaker 1: feel like we all should take advantage of. Awesome. Who's

1600
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:41,599
Speaker 1: your favorite retired NFL player? Deon Sanders, Yeah, he's He's

1601
01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:45,800

1603
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:51,519
Speaker 1: my favorite player all the time. Jerry Reichs a close second,

1604
01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:55,360
Speaker 1: but I picked Dion because I'm more of a quiet, humble,

1605
01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:58,880
Speaker 1: relaxed guy and he was out there, flashy, in your face,

1606
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:00,879
Speaker 1: and I just love that of about him, the opposite

1607

1610
01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:10,280

01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:15,640
Speaker 1: ninety four. Yeah, but his legacy. Yeah, did his thing,

1612
01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:18,000

Speaker 1: And I would many how much trash do you actually

1614

01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:19,160
Speaker 1: Martin also known as Jake Martin, and he has had

1632
01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:21,639
Speaker 1: a pretty nice week. But now it's on to Denver.

1633
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,720
Speaker 1: Let's talk about first from when you got here week

1634
01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:28,400
Speaker 1: one to now, how much growth have you seen from

1635
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:30,680
Speaker 1: yourself and how much growth have you seen from this

1636
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 1: defense as a whole. I would say there's been a

1637
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:36,240
Speaker 1: lot of growth grown on between myself and self, so

1638
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:38,960
Speaker 1: like a lot of self growth, and then obviously the

1639
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,400
Speaker 1: growth between me and my teammates, you know, and us

1640
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,080
Speaker 1: as a team growing as as as one growing from

1641
01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:46,439
Speaker 1: a group to growing into a team, you know, in

1642
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:49,360
Speaker 1: that aspect of the game. But I would say my

1643
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:52,160
Speaker 1: personal growth after being trade Danniard to Houston, you know,

1644
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:54,519
Speaker 1: it is kind of a little disorienting, you know, trying

1645
01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:57,800
Speaker 1: to figure everything out and get settled and try to

1646
01:21:57,880 --> 01:21:59,680
Speaker 1: learn as much as I possibly could. The day that

1647
01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:02,200
Speaker 1: a guy or you know, having a notebook and asking

1648
01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:04,280
Speaker 1: questions and asking for the playbook as soon as they

1649
01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: got here, and trying to learn and familiarize myself with

1650
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:10,760
Speaker 1: not only the Texans terminology, you know, but how they

1651
01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:12,720
Speaker 1: see things and how they do things, and trying to

1652
01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:14,360
Speaker 1: get a feel for everyone in the building. I'm a

1653
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,280
Speaker 1: big believer in trying to bring everyone in this organization,

1654
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:21,679
Speaker 1: so everyone from the janitor to the chef, to assistant coaches,

1655
01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 1: to the training staff to whatever, you know, try to

1656
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:25,439
Speaker 1: learn them as a person and how they operate and

1657
01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:27,080
Speaker 1: how they do things, you know, just to try to

1658
01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:29,559
Speaker 1: help make their days a little bit easier. So it's

1659
01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:31,559
Speaker 1: been great so far. You know, I've always obviously grown,

1660
01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:33,280
Speaker 1: and I'm a lot more comfortable, you know, in the

1661
01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,080
Speaker 1: building and working with my teammates, you know, and understanding

1662
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:37,600
Speaker 1: the system and how we do things and how we

1663
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:39,839
Speaker 1: operate things and just to the day to day schedule,

1664
01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:41,920
Speaker 1: and it makes things a lot easier to play football. Yeah,

1665
01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:44,560
Speaker 1: you know, not everyone shares that same philosophy that you

1666
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:47,600
Speaker 1: just mentioned that you have, but it seems like this

1667
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,320
Speaker 1: locker room would be pretty conducive to that, and it

1668
01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,719
Speaker 1: seems like a lot of your teammates were pretty helpful.

1669
01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:54,439
Speaker 1: So a lot of these coaches were very helpful as

1670
01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,000
Speaker 1: far as bringing you up to speed in that regard, right,

1671
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 1: is that is that an accurate thing? Would you say? Yeah,

1672
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:00,560
Speaker 1: I would say I would say, so, this is a

1673
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 1: great locker room, you know, just just like the one

1674
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:05,120
Speaker 1: I just I left Seattle. You know, it's a lot

1675
01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:06,920
Speaker 1: of great guys, a lot of great older guys. There's

1676
01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:08,960
Speaker 1: tons of vets, and there are tons of experience, guys

1677
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:10,920
Speaker 1: that played a lot of football. Even with the coach staff,

1678
01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 1: there's tons of experience once coach staff, you know, with

1679
01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:15,640
Speaker 1: the Romeo Cornell and PAGs. You know. So there's a lot,

1680
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:17,640
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of coaching experiences on my

1681
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:19,879
Speaker 1: side of football, and guys to learn from like Witney Merciless,

1682
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 1: you know, and JJ Watt and Mike Adam evenly plays safety,

1683
01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:25,080
Speaker 1: Mike Adams, you know, guys that have been around and

1684
01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:27,080
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of football trying to figure out how

1685
01:23:27,080 --> 01:23:29,880
Speaker 1: they do things, you know, just observing. What's it like?

1686
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,720
Speaker 1: You just brought up Cornell and PAGs and PAGs is

1687
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:36,280
Speaker 1: Pagano John Pagano, one of the linebackers coaches. What's it

1688
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: like seeing them operates, seeing them coach, seeing them teach.

1689
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,759
Speaker 1: It's different. You know. I grew up watching Coach Cornell

1690
01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:45,640
Speaker 1: when he was the head coach in Kansas City. At

1691
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:47,599
Speaker 1: the time, I lived in Denver, so you know, Kansas

1692
01:23:48,120 --> 01:23:50,360
Speaker 1: twice a year, right, growing up watching him and his

1693
01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:53,240
Speaker 1: defenses play. You know. Obviously he was an assistant coach

1694
01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:55,840
Speaker 1: for the Patriots as well, you know, so watching those

1695
01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 1: teams play football, and obviously coach Coach Purgano and his

1696
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:01,840
Speaker 1: his stint with San Diego. So that's a lot a

1697
01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:03,439
Speaker 1: lot of great football minds. You know, a lot of

1698
01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:06,360
Speaker 1: guys that have been around great talent, Hall of Fame

1699
01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 1: caliber type dude, they didn't understand what it takes as

1700
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 1: a player, you know, to get yourself to that level

1701
01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:13,000
Speaker 1: and get yourself prepared, you know, And it just it

1702
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 1: just helps with the terminology because they've seen so much,

1703
01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:18,080
Speaker 1: they've done so much, they can they can talk the

1704
01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:20,479
Speaker 1: same language and pick up on what you're trying to

1705
01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:22,679
Speaker 1: say to them and help teach you the new language,

1706
01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:24,200
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So, which I think is

1707
01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:27,080
Speaker 1: I think that's that's the biggest thing when you're coming

1708
01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:30,800
Speaker 1: into anything new in terms of like athletics is making

1709
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:33,680
Speaker 1: sure that your language is the same, because if my

1710
01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:36,680
Speaker 1: terminology is different than their terminology, then I can never

1711
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:38,479
Speaker 1: we would never be on the same page, you know

1712
01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 1: what I mean. I may see something, I come come

1713
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,000
Speaker 1: the sideline and describe it to them like hey, this

1714
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:43,880
Speaker 1: and that and the third, but if they don't know

1715
01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:46,320
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, like in terms of terminology, then

1716
01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:48,120
Speaker 1: they can't help me. I think that's that was the

1717
01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 1: biggest challenge, you know, just make sure my terminology, my

1718
01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:52,400
Speaker 1: text and talk was at the right place. You just

1719
01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 1: brought up something very interesting and you've got a very

1720
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:58,559
Speaker 1: unique backstory. You spent part of your youth here in Houston,

1721
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:01,479
Speaker 1: in the Houston area. Then you mentioned the Denver connection.

1722
01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:03,599
Speaker 1: So what's it gonna be like when you play the Broncos?

1723
01:25:03,880 --> 01:25:06,000
Speaker 1: Be exciting? Like for me growing up, I never really

1724
01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:07,960
Speaker 1: had a favorite football team, Okay, you know what I mean.

1725
01:25:08,439 --> 01:25:10,920
Speaker 1: So I just I was a fan of players, you know,

1726
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:15,040
Speaker 1: I followed players who are your favorites? Dude? For a while,

1727
01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:17,799
Speaker 1: if I was gonna play safety, man, so Brian Dawkins

1728
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:21,960
Speaker 1: a good one, Sean Taylor, every ray Lewis and as

1729
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,080
Speaker 1: that's as I started getting older, and I was like, oh, Jake,

1730
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:27,240
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna be a linebacker, but you were always

1731
01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:30,160
Speaker 1: thinking defensively, even even at a younger age. Huh No,

1732
01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:35,599
Speaker 1: that's surprisingly my dream from birth to like I realized

1733
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:37,920
Speaker 1: that this dream is no longer going to happen. It

1734
01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 1: was like, I wanted to be number thirty nine and

1735
01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 1: play a running back at the University of Texas. Well,

1736
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:45,880
Speaker 1: I don't mean to I don't want to puff anything

1737
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 1: up here, but you're on a team and with a

1738
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:49,840
Speaker 1: franchise that I don't know, the dreams are dead. I mean,

1739
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,120
Speaker 1: we just saw a trip play last week. True. J J.

1740
01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:55,519
Speaker 1: Watt has caught three touchdown passes in his stint here,

1741
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,000
Speaker 1: so I wouldn't rule anything out. Yeah, I'm not gonna

1742
01:25:58,040 --> 01:25:59,120
Speaker 1: do it. But if you want a lot to your

1743
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:01,880
Speaker 1: coaches fishing, ye, go, go right ahead. But you liked

1744
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:04,479
Speaker 1: the University of Texas, you thought about playing running back.

1745
01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,320
Speaker 1: Let's let's kind of focus on the game at hand.

1746
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,560
Speaker 1: This Denver offense, they've got some some skill out on

1747
01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:12,439
Speaker 1: the edges, and they've got a rookie quarterback. What do

1748
01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 1: you see from Drew Locke when you watch him on tape?

1749
01:26:15,400 --> 01:26:17,840
Speaker 1: Which is a little bit of a limited library of tape,

1750
01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:19,479
Speaker 1: if you will. Well, I got a chance to play

1751
01:26:19,600 --> 01:26:21,840
Speaker 1: Drew earlier this year in the preseason when I was

1752
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:24,120
Speaker 1: up in Seattle. So I think I think the kid

1753
01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:26,200
Speaker 1: is very athletic quarterback. I think he's a lot more

1754
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 1: more about mobile than people give him credit for. You know,

1755
01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:30,760
Speaker 1: he throws the ball pretty well. You know, he's a

1756
01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:33,040
Speaker 1: talented guy. Some some young some young weapons at his

1757
01:26:33,080 --> 01:26:36,519
Speaker 1: disposal with the Philip Lindsay and Sutton. So I'm excited,

1758
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:38,880
Speaker 1: just excited to have the opportunity to play as long

1759
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,439
Speaker 1: as we play our brand of football, do as the

1760
01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:43,400
Speaker 1: game plan says, and stick to our plan, you know,

1761
01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:46,599
Speaker 1: whatever that may be, and learn and make adjustments throughout

1762
01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:48,080
Speaker 1: the game. I think it should be good game for

1763
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:50,679
Speaker 1: the defense. Last thing, how much fun was it sacking

1764
01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:56,280
Speaker 1: Tom Brady? Oh? Off the bucket list? Love it? Last thing?

1765
01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:57,840
Speaker 1: This is truly the last thing. You know, I said

1766
01:26:57,840 --> 01:26:59,800
Speaker 1: the last thing last time, But this is the lasting

1767
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:04,080
Speaker 1: Have you always come to games wearing cowboy hats, wearing

1768
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:06,280
Speaker 1: western wear? Is that is that something that's new this year?

1769
01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 1: Is that something that's been going on? Well, I'm back

1770
01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 1: in Texas, maybe so like I had, I had to

1771
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:12,720
Speaker 1: break it back out Western where there you go. It's

1772
01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:15,280
Speaker 1: kind of nice because we haven't seen that since. Guys

1773
01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:18,360
Speaker 1: like Antonio Smith, he's played defensive end here. Danielle Manning

1774
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:20,559
Speaker 1: used to be really good safety. They used to wear

1775
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 1: the Western wearer as well. Well, we're happy you're here, man.

1776
01:27:23,120 --> 01:27:24,960
Speaker 1: It's good talking with you as always. Best of luck

1777
01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:27,439
Speaker 1: against Abroncos, Best of luck the rest of the way
