1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:00,560 Speaker 1: Taping. 2 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 2: Everybody, welcome into a different type edition of Texans All 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,399 Speaker 2: Access Matchup Edition. I'm your host, John Harris, Football and 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 2: all Asyeline reporter for your Houston Texans.

I 7 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 2: know a lot of you are hanging with the family 8 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 2: and opening presence, getting ready for the Texans game tomorrow. 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: But we still wanted to obviously bring you Texans football. 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: So we're coming up with a few things. 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: Number One, we're going to have in this first segment, 12 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 2: a matchup version that's a little different. Didn't really want 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: to put together an Ultimate eleven from the Chiefs game, 14 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: and so I kind of put some of this ahead 15 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: together ahead of time. 16 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: The Texans have nine. 17 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 2: Wins this year, and in those nine wins, there have 18 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: been all kinds of great plays. There have been all 19 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: kinds of number ones in the Ultimate eleven, but also 20 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: been nine underrated plays that a win doesn't happen without 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 2: these particular plays. And so I've gone through each and 22 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 2: every win. I looked at every X factor play for 23 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 2: all nine wins. We'll have that for you starting in 24 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: just a second. We're also going to have a Week 25 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: sixteen run through the NFL. And then it was awesome, 26 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: especially in Washington. What a game, no dog in a 27 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: fight in Washington, Philadelphia, and man, what a football game 28 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: that was. So we got a lot to do on 29 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,639 Speaker 2: the show this evening, and we're gonna start with those 30 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 2: nine for nine, the nine underrated plays and the nine wins, 31 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: starting right here, the most underrated plays that we didn't 32 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: talk about in each of the nine wins. So when 33 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: you hear it, you might go, hmm, okay, I'll try 34 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: and explain why I put each play as the underrated 35 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: one to see if that'll give it some context, and 36 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: maybe I'll swing you over to the right side of 37 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: things for each of these plays. So it starts in 38 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 2: Indianapolis in Week one. Now, if you can think all 39 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: the way back September eighth, I believe it was the 40 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: Texans in that game, if you remember, first drive went down, 41 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 2: kicked a field goal, made three to nothing, but on 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: the next drive after they got to stop Anthony Richardson 43 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 2: and fourth down on the first drive and then may 44 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: three to nothing, coach got the ball back and Anthony 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: Richardson launches deep Alec Pierce touchdown. 46 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: Damn it seven to three. Texas get the ball back. 47 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: They make it seven to six, but they're kind of 48 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 2: teetering on the brink because Richardson had just had this 49 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: long throw. They've got some confidence. They got a one 50 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 2: point lead and then it was time for the first 51 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: sack of the year. It was a thirteen yard loss. 52 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: It was Mario Edwards bursting through sacking Richardson. 53 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: This would lead to a punt. 54 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: The Texans would then take the next drive and go 55 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: down and score a touchdown. 56 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: And take the lead at that moment, But it was Mario. 57 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: Edwards sack that started it going in that direction. If 58 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 2: the Colts got on a score, make it fourteen to six, 59 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 2: like uh oh, Now Richardson's got confidence, this is trouble. Instead, 60 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: Edwards comes up with this sack that turned it the 61 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: other way. Underrated play number one in week number one 62 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: against the Colts, Mario Edwards first sacked the Texans first 63 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 2: sack of the year. 64 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: Here we go a third and six from the Colts 65 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: thirty four. Richardson shotgun has the snap. Now he's flushed around. 66 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: Now he's gonna go down. 67 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: Mario Edwards sacks Anthony Richards that I'm third down. 68 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: I mean he threw him to the turf. 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: Edwards first sack in his first game as a Texan. 70 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: In fact, in that game foley in Mario had the 71 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 2: two sacks, and looking back at the game afterwards, you realized, Okay, 72 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: this was how Will Anderson Junior and Anthonio Hunter were playing. 73 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: They're really containing Anthony. 74 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: Richards, etc. 75 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: So the interior guys had to have him and Mario 76 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 2: had a big one right there. 77 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: Then we went to week two on a Sunday night 78 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: and beat the Bears. 79 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: It was not the prettiest game, but there were definite 80 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 2: moments in that Eco Collins was absolutely fantastic throughout this game. 81 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: So near the end of the first half, Bears kicked 82 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 2: the field goal. Cairo Santos hit one to make it 83 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: thirteen to ten, Texans up three. 84 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: But Texans had enough time to. 85 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: Do something potentially to put a few more points up 86 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 2: on the board before the half. Steal a field goal. 87 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: If that's all you can do, you get it to 88 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: sixteen ten. Hey you feel good about at least sixteen ten. 89 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: One of the prettiest half, but hey, get it sixteen ten. 90 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: It's a little better than thirteen ten. While on that 91 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 2: drive before Kyymie Fairbairn nailed a law long fuel goal. 92 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: I think it was fifty nine yards to end the half. Basically, 93 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: CJ Stroud found Daria goomble walle kind of foreshadowing what 94 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 2: would happen a couple weeks later. Didn't seem like much, 95 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 2: but it was enough to keep a drive going right 96 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: before the half to make sure that Kaymi had a 97 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: chance to put three up on the board. Underrated play 98 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: number two came in win number two against the Chicago Bears. 99 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 5: C J. 100 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: Stroud to dari A goomble Wallee. 101 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 3: After thirty five yard line of Houston, thirty two seconds 102 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 3: left in the half. Texans up three. Here's motion and 103 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 3: an empty backfield. CJ Stroud, It waits the snap from Patterson, 104 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: gets it, CJ in the pocket looking. CJ dumps it 105 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 3: off short and here's Dara first down and more forty 106 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 3: five main teens his feet going for the sideline out 107 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: of bunds. Does he get to take the time out 108 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 3: at the forty eight yard line. 109 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: I got to spend the time out, yep. 110 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 3: Got They do it with eighteen seconds to go. Darry 111 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 3: did everything he could to get out of the bunds, 112 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 3: couldn't do it. 113 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 2: Daria goomble Wale, Man, I'm telling you is just done. 114 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 2: He's done so much for this organization. I mean the 115 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: Bears game, the Jaguars game. Man speaking of the Jaguars game. 116 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: That was the next win. Texans went to Minnesota in 117 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: Week three, didn't go well, so they had to respond 118 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: to Jacksonville in Week four, and they responded somewhat, but 119 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: in the second half. 120 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: Late in the second half. 121 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: The Jaguars had a twenty to seventeen lead, but the 122 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: Texans gotta stop, got the ball back, didn't do anything 123 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 2: with it. 124 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: Jaguars had the ball again. 125 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: And I'm thinking, oh, man, we're in trouble now because 126 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: they get a first down here they run more o'clock. 127 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: We're not gonna get the ball back. But Texas defense 128 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: did get a stop with it. Twenty to seventeen. Third down. 129 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: Gotta get the ball back because if you get the 130 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: ball back, then the magic of C. J. 131 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: Stroud and Darya Gumbwally is gonna take over, which it did. 132 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: But to get the ball back, they had to have 133 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: this third down stop, which was absolutely massive. 134 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: Underrated play number three in win number three. 135 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: The defense third down stop with a twenty to seventeen 136 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: late in the fourth quarter. 137 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: Big third down right here, mark pressure down for the 138 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: Houston defense. 139 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 4: Expect down three, expect to draw a late third and nine. 140 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: Lawrence and the gun talking to his team, Dearnis Johnson 141 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 3: to his left leg down. Here's the snap to Trevor Lawrence. 142 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 3: Here's the rush over the middle.

Darry Groomblewaly 153 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 2: played at University of Wisconsin, getting it done in those 154 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 2: big situations. The next week, we're in the h Town 155 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: Blue Unis against the Buffalo Bills. Jumped out to a 156 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: twenty to three lead, but with it twenty to seventeen, 157 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: she just drive went back to pass in his own 158 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: territory strip sack ball comes out. Damn it, Bills have 159 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: got it. Man, we're in trouble. It's a sudden change situation. Now, 160 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: in a sudden change situation, you talk all the time. 161 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: Hold him to a field goal, hold him to a 162 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: field goal. Hold him to a field goal. That's what 163 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: you preach. But man, that is not easy. But the 164 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 2: Texas defense was on one against Josh Allen. He completed 165 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 2: only nine of thirty passes, so on a third down 166 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 2: looking to put the ball in the end zone to 167 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: take a twenty four to twenty lead, the Texas defense 168 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 2: had to come up with a big stop. Now, what 169 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: happens later in this game kind of took over the 170 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: narrative of this game, But this stop was kind of 171 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 2: glossed over because it forced Tyler Bass to have to 172 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 2: kick a pretty short field goal to tie it at 173 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 2: twenty instead of taking a four point lead. 174 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: This third down stop came in win number four. 175 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: Underrated play number four third down stop against the Bills, 176 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,359 Speaker 2: deep in Texas territory. 177 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,599 Speaker 3: Empty backfield, after emotion, third down and ten at the 178 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 3: Houston fifteen yard line. 179 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 6: Alan shotgun that'll be aware of him running when it's 180 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 6: empty like this, Alan gets to snap Alan looking Alan 181 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 6: running out to the right side. 182 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 4: Alan tried to extend the play throwing out of bounds right. 183 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: Side and complete Samuel the only receiver in the area. 184 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 3: Texans get off the field after the turnover. 185 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: But here's Bass to try to tie it up. Now, 186 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 2: Bass would tie it up, but tie ball game as 187 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 2: opposed to being down four. That's how big that third 188 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 2: down was. But because of everything that really happened later, 189 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: I think we sort of glossed over that third down 190 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 2: stop that the Texans ended up getting at that moment. 191 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 2: Then we had to go on the road. It's time 192 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 2: to go to New England. They won a New England 193 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: and near the end of the half, Kayshan Boodi caught 194 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 2: a deep touchdown to make it fourteen to seven, and 195 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: the stadium was rocking. 196 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: They got all the momentum in the world. 197 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: Now, as I was trying to find the most underrated 198 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 2: play in this Patriots game, there's only one play it 199 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 2: came to mind. 200 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: So I don't know if this one's the most underrated play. 201 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: At all, but I felt like because of what happens 202 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 2: with a lot of the turnovers in the game and 203 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: the touchdowns, those kind of things. 204 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: Sometimes we forget how that game turned. 205 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: The game turned on one play and it was just 206 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 2: after halftime, and it was done by Daniil Hunter. Maybe 207 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: the least underrated play in this group, but think it 208 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: ends up being massive one anyway. 209 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: So let's put it right here. Daneil Hunter sacks Drake 210 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: May fumble out Mario Edwards on it. 211 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: Texans would score a touchdown a few plays later and 212 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 2: going to blow out the Patriots in Foxborough. 213 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: Go get him, Daniloat. 214 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 4: Calling defensive signals. May gets the snap, he got a 215 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 4: little time and now he sacked. 216 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: The ball is out. 217 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: Hunter got it out and Edwards recovers at the ten 218 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 3: yard line, stripsack Drake May is still down. 219 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 2: The Texas would lose a gut punch game the following 220 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: week against the Green Bay Packers. 221 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: Man was that a gut punch last second field? 222 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 2: Go Brandon McManus leaking right over the upright where I 223 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 2: was and just sneaking right on through twenty four to 224 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: twenty two Packers. So you gotta rebound. You've been on 225 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: the road for two weeks. Now you got to Indiapolis Colts. 226 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: Colts starting to get some things together seemingly Richardson doing 227 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 2: some some good things. But the Texans landed some haymakers 228 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: in the game against the Colts, some big time plays 229 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: in this game, and they had gotten to a point 230 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 2: where they were maintaining kind of distance from the Colts. 231 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: It's twenty to ten. 232 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 2: Then the Colts got a drive going kicked the field 233 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: goal made it twenty to thirteen, so they got it 234 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: within one score. It's what you were trying to avoid, 235 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 2: So okay, you got to answer. But the drive didn't 236 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 2: start well, didn't start well at all. In fact, they 237 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: lost yardage early in the in the series. 238 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: But then CJ. 239 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 2: Stroud scrambled and found John Metchi for a huge first down. 240 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: Mechi would make this catch. They would go on to. 241 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: Kick a field goal and take a twenty three to 242 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: thirteen lead. That two score lead would eventually be chipped 243 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 2: into by late Richard's a touchdown. But the Texan's able 244 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: to do enough, and this drive right here the answer 245 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 2: after the Macay field goal made it twenty to thirteen. 246 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 2: From Stroud to Mechi. You could hear it in Mark's voice. 247 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: Just listen to Mark's voice. He tells you how important 248 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: this play is in the game when he tells you 249 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: that Mechi has caught the ball. Could listen in win 250 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: number six on the season as they beat the Indianapolis Colts. 251 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: Shot de Mechi it's big, but maybe bigger than we thought. 252 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: Split back second and nineteenth the Colts forty nine cj 253 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 3: out of the gun in the pocket, looking looking now, 254 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 3: dancing to the right side, directing traffic, throws down field. 255 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 4: And cut by Metche bedside the twenty five heads for 256 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 4: the sidelines. 257 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 3: What a play to John Metchi to the twenty one 258 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 3: yard line. 259 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: They cash. 260 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 6: In sign of a good coaching staff is how can 261 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 6: you get guys ready to play? How fast can you 262 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 6: get them ready to play during the week in case 263 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 6: there are injuries throughout a game? Well, guess what, John 264 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 6: Metchi is ready to play. 265 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 2: Then it was time for the prime timers. Thursday night 266 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: the Jets who That was a disaster of night. But 267 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 2: I mentioned this during the week, I could kind of 268 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 2: see I guess maybe should have seen a Thursday night 269 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: after a really tough Colts game go on the road. 270 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 2: You know, Aaron Rodgers has got a chance to kind 271 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 2: of write things, and he had a nice night. 272 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: But as Garrett Wilson that made just acrobatic catches. 273 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 2: They got a fourth down call that went for them, 274 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: that set up that deep catch by Garrett Wilson on 275 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: Stingley that was just a BS call either way, lost 276 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 2: of the Jets, had the Lions on the ropes, but 277 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: couldn't knock out arguably the best. 278 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: Team in the league. 279 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 2: So it was time for the final of three straight 280 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 2: primetime games against the Dallas Cowboys up in Dallas, and. 281 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: It started great. Nico Houses it, but it's called back 282 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: for a penalty. Didn't matter. 283 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: A few plays later Joe Mixon House won forty five yards, 284 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 2: took a seven to nothing lead, took a ten to 285 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 2: nothing lead. Come on, de Turpin took one to the house. 286 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: It was ten to seven. Kind of went back and forth, 287 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: and eventually in the third quarter it was twenty to ten. 288 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: But the Cowboys had a drive going got stopped. Brandon 289 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: Aubrey hit a long field goal, long field goal, It's 290 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: gonna make it twenty to thirteen, but Derek Barnett, trying 291 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: to get a spot where he could block the kick, 292 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: hit a Cowboy guard in the head. Fifteen yard penalty 293 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: for a head slap. Cowboys kept the drive going, moved 294 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: it down, got into a couple first downs, they got 295 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 2: it inside the ten yard line, think they were at 296 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 2: the eight yard line, and they decided on four to 297 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: two that they were gonna go for it. With everything 298 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 2: going to happened with Barnett later the big hit by 299 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: Petrie and sealing this game against the Cowboys. 300 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: We tend to forget about this fourth down stop. Cooper 301 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: Rush tried to roll to his right. 302 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 2: And the Texans had it on lockdown, lockdown, forced to stop, 303 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: got the ball back and kept the Cowboys out of 304 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 2: the end zone. A couple drives later, Derek Barnett struck 305 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 2: Jalen Petrie struck Barnett ran it in and it was ballgame. 306 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: But it could very easily have been twenty to seventeen 307 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: and you're fighting up hill if it wasn't for this 308 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 2: fourth down stop. 309 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 3: In the third quarter, fourth and two at the Texans eight, 310 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 3: lamb right side, Stingley will watch him. 311 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 4: Rush takes the snap, steps to the right, He's in trouble. 312 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 7: He throws and incomplete and a flag is down. 313 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 4: It's in the backfield. Could it be a hold? 314 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 6: Oh boy? 315 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 4: If it is, they'll decline it. 316 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: Of course, holdings offense. 317 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 4: The eighty six Uphols declined. 318 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: The ocill play this first down Houston. 319 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 3: So a thank you to Derek Bartnett. The three points 320 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: came off the board. Dallas drove after picking up the 321 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 3: free fifteen and a free first down, but the Texans 322 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 3: get the Cowboys to turn it over on downs. 323 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 2: We would thank Derek Barnett later on a little bit 324 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 2: more effusively for what he was able to do with 325 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 2: the stripsack on Cooper rush that turned into it Derek 326 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 2: barnett scooping score for a touchdown, his first in the NFL, 327 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 2: and that leads us to. 328 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: The Jacksonville game. 329 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 2: And we just did this Ultimate eleven last week, and 330 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 2: so I scoured all these plays and then I remember 331 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 2: something that happened in week four. This happened in week four, 332 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 2: and we talked all about it for a week. I mean, 333 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 2: I remember asking Dmiko Ryans guys on radio. We're talking 334 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 2: about this particular play and it was a Tank Bigsby 335 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 2: fifty eight yard run, but Kaylen Bullock ran him down 336 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 2: and kept him out of the end zone. Texans then 337 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: forced a fuel goal. So this happened in week. 338 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 3: Four, third and three at the thirty eight yard line 339 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 3: of Jacksonville. Laurence shot in a bunch formation, left one 340 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: back Bigsby, Trevor with signals hand off Bigsby straight ahead, 341 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 3: first out of more fifty to forty five. He's on 342 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 3: the move right side thirty twenty five, twenty fifteen. 343 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: To ten, five to the. 344 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: Pylon, and they're gonna say, Stephan the mounains inside the 345 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: five yard line on all Bigsby shut out of my 346 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 3: cannon gets the jackson. 347 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: First a goal. 348 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 2: So as I was kind of going through these plays, 349 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: I was like, man, I remember in the Week thirteen 350 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: game in Jacksonville, something happened. I know that Jaguars had 351 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 2: a big play, and then it hit me, oh yeah, 352 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas catches a shallow route and whoever was covering 353 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 2: him kind of got caught on picks, and all of 354 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 2: a sudden, Brian Thomas, arguably the fastest player in the field, 355 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 2: starts taking off for the Jacksonville end zone. He scores 356 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: there and it becomes ten to six Jacksonville. In the 357 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 2: third quarter, the stadium ramps back up, they get excited, 358 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: but again Kaylin Bullock ran him down, knocked him out 359 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 2: of bounds. It would eventually force a Cam Little field 360 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 2: goal to make it six to six. What happened on 361 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 2: the next drive, Nico Collins, the Schultz, Joe Mixon run, 362 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: Joe Mixon touchdown. 363 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 1: The game changed. 364 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 2: But if Kaylen Bloke doesn't run down Brian Thomas, another 365 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 2: Jaguar running him down, the Jags take that ten to 366 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 2: six lead, and maybe the game is different. So he 367 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: win number eight underrated play number eight Kaylebn Bullock running 368 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 2: down the fastest guy on the field again. 369 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 3: And they're gonna go empty here and four receivers wide 370 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 3: side left. 371 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 4: Last time they ran a receiver screen in this formation. 372 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 3: Third and ten from the Jags, thirty one Jones to 373 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: throw Jones over the middle. 374 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: He's got Thomas cutting. 375 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 4: Across white side, forty fifty. 376 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 3: White sideline, the forty of the Texans, the thirty, the twenty, 377 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 3: and he's finally written down inside the fifteen yard line. 378 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 4: Five Bullock. Huge play to Thomas. 379 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 2: But the great thing about that play as Mark's at 380 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: the end tackled by Bullock. 381 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: Bullock the eraser. 382 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 2: He's a big play, but he basically erased four points 383 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 2: off the board by hustling and catching Brian Thomas and 384 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 2: making that a field goal opportunity instead of touchdown opportunity. 385 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 2: A touchdown right there in the third quarter to make 386 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: it ten to six changes the calculus of everything everything. 387 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: So one hundred and fourteen yards between Bigsby and Brian 388 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 2: Thomas and all they got was a lousy field goal. 389 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: Ah, they didn't even get a lousy T shirt out 390 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: of that. 391 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 2: And then there was the win over the Dolphins in 392 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: Week fifteen. Yeah, this game had all kinds of big plays. 393 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 2: Terry Stingley had interceptions in the fourth quarter that basically 394 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 2: shut everything down. CJ Strout finding Nicocollins twice of his 395 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 2: four catches. So there was a lot going on in 396 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: this Miami game that had a high quality that maybe 397 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: doesn't fit the underrated category, but there's always something. 398 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: There's always a. 399 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 2: Play where you go, okay, there had to be something 400 00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 2: in this one, right, Well, there was absolutely and it 401 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: happened on the very first offensive play for the Dolphins 402 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: in the game. Now, Derek Stingley, as I mentioned, did 403 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 2: some incredible things in this game. The two interceptions are 404 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 2: just phenomenal. He was AFC Defensive Player of the Week. 405 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 2: But I remember Demiko Ryan saying after the game that 406 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 2: One of the things that stood out the most and 407 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 2: set the tone for the game was the very first 408 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 2: play of the game to a tongue of Ioloa drops 409 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 2: back to throw looks, looks, looks, can't find anything? Okay, 410 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: throw out to the fastest guy in a building and 411 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 2: let him do something, and he got stuck right on 412 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 2: the spot. Derek Stingley tackling devon a chance set a 413 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: tone for how the Texans were gonna play in this 414 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 2: game right here on. 415 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 3: First down two or will throw back's up? Looking around, 416 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 3: He's got a lot of time. Swings it out to 417 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 3: eight Chan in a quite open field, stick by Derek 418 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 3: Stingley Junior for a loss, But what. 419 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 2: A day for staying two interceptions, two TFLs. There are 420 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: very few corners that have been able to very defensive plays, 421 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 2: have been able to do that in a game. But 422 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 2: he did it. He has become the best all round 423 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 2: in a game. And it's not even close. There's a 424 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: team picture and he's the only one in it at 425 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 2: this point at corner. 426 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: He has been fantastic. 427 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 2: Okay, when we get back, it's Week sixteen in the NFL, 428 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 2: and what a glorious sunday it was. 429 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: We'll have some fun with it going around. 430 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 2: The NFL next right here on Texans All Access Matchup Edition. 431 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to this edition of Texans All 432 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: Access Matchup Edition.

It 436 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 2: was absolutely fantastic. Man, it was really good. One of 437 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 2: the better sundays I can remember. And maybe it was 438 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 2: a good Sunday because I could actually watch things that 439 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 2: were going on. So it's time to recap what was 440 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: a why Week sixteen in the NFL. Let's start in 441 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 2: Baltimore where the Ravens are coming to town and well 442 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: they're hot because Lamar Jackson is making it. So he 443 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: would connect on Mark Andrews with the game tied at 444 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 2: seventeen to give the Ravens a twenty four to seventeen League. 445 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 8: Seventeen seventeen, but Baltimore trying to go in and on 446 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 8: second down and goal from the six shotgun snap, Lamar 447 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 8: Jackson throws en zone. 448 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: Touchdown on juggling catch by. 449 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 4: Mark Andrews and the back of the end zone. 450 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 8: The third touchdown passed for Lamar Jackson to the ball 451 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 8: game and that quickly the Ravens jump back on top. 452 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 8: It's twenty three to seventeen with a minute fifty left 453 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 8: to go here on the third. 454 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 9: A more offense than you thought that, Scotty boy this time, 455 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 9: this is Mark Andrews. He ate it a little more 456 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 9: difficult than he needed to in the back of the 457 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 9: end zone, wide open. Lamar put it right between the 458 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 9: eight and nine. He juggled it for a second and 459 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 9: then just kind of stepped out of the back of 460 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 9: the end zone. 461 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: What a great drive by Baltimore. 462 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 2: Steeve's got the ball back and they've been moving the 463 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 2: ball in the Ravens and well, let's go down and 464 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: tie to twenty four and make this thing really really interesting. 465 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: But it didn't turn out that way. Why well, Marlon Humphrey, 466 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 2: Johnny on the spot. 467 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 8: That second down in seven, Wilson works under center play action, 468 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 8: rolls out right. 469 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 4: Looking to throw and doesn't picked up and it's. 470 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 2: Going back the other right for a score. 471 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 8: Marlin Humphrey that intercept it for a touchdown thirty five 472 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 8: yards on a pick six. 473 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: And this one turns on its ear again. 474 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 8: The Ravens allated thirty to seventeen as Barlin Humphrey gets 475 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 8: his sixth interception. 476 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: Of the year. 477 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 9: Staple of the Pittsburgh attack is naked bootleg rolling out 478 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 9: to his. 479 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: Right, throws the ball way back. 480 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 4: Behind the intended receiver. 481 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 9: Mike Cole provid it was probably four yards behind them. 482 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 9: Good coverage obviously by Humphrey, and he walks into. 483 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: The end zone. 484 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: He did walk into the end zone, and he taunted 485 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: but said he did. 486 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: But who cares. 487 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 2: The Ravens get the win, a big win at that 488 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 2: as they followed up our game on NBC. I believe 489 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 2: it was, but that was Mike Mayock you heard on 490 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 2: the call right there for Westwood One. The Ravens dominate 491 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: the second half. Andrews with that touchdown catch, Lamar Jackson 492 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 2: three touchdowns, Dereck Henry one hundred and sixty two rushing yards, 493 00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 2: Dave Flowers one hundred receiving yards. Those numbers are my nightmare. Now, 494 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 2: Save Flowers might be banged up, but so be it. 495 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 2: Seventeen point win for Baltimore. They avenged the two point 496 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 2: loss they had in Pittsburgh. Both teams ten and five. 497 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 2: Ravens still needs some help, but they'll get some help 498 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: in the form of the Chiefs and the Bengals. However, 499 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 2: both games are at Pittsburgh. We talked about that a 500 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: little bit already. Baltimore has got the Texans on Christmas 501 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 2: Day here and then they get a visit from the 502 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns. The Browns looking to play grinch on the 503 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens season, but the Steelers Russell Wilson throws for 504 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 2: over two hundred He also had two touchdowns. With that 505 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 2: back breaking interception right there to Marlon Humphrey sealed the 506 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 2: deal for the Ravens against the Steelers. All right, let's 507 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 2: go to Washington where it was one heck of a 508 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: football game.

I 572 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: don't know who. 573 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 12: Daniels four touchdown pass he's gonna get, walking into the 574 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 12: opportunity to take the lead. 575 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, water play, you stopped the dog. 576 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 12: You kept the fileft up the Eagles with with a plumping. 577 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 11: Of a pill. 578 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 12: But Keana Talls escape in the pocket, and this is 579 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 12: dy Quick talks about keep his eyes out of field. 580 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 12: You're better than the quarterback. Hit e laminates the Tears 581 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 12: and he does the dress. See to this though, baby. 582 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 2: But Kenny Pickett drove the Eagles back down to get 583 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 2: in range for Jake Elliott's fifty yard field goal to 584 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: retake the lead. Thirty twenty eight. The problem is Jake 585 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 2: Elliott had been missing field goals from fifty yards all 586 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 2: season long, but not this one. 587 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 10: Jake Elliott has not had a fifty yard field goal 588 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 10: this season as long as forty nine, as long as it's. 589 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 5: Forty nine, Merril, and in that fifty yard plus range 590 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 5: he's zero for five. 591 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 4: This is a tough one. 592 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 10: This is not your normal fifty yard field goal, right. 593 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 5: The ball is hard and the ball doesn't carry as 594 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 5: well well when it's this cold, you don't have the 595 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 5: same bounce in that leather coming off of your foot, 596 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 5: So this is a tough kick. 597 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 10: He missed the plus fifty in the other direction earlier 598 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 10: in the game. This will be a fifty yarder like 599 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 10: Jake Elliott to get the Eagles the lead. 600 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: And then with the lead, the Eagles turned over Daniels 601 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: when Red Blanke and Ship intercepted a Daniels tip pass 602 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: with about two fifty eight lefs, but DeVante Smith dropped 603 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: a key third down throw. Elliott came back on the 604 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 2: field kicked the fieldal to make it thirty three twenty eight. 605 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 2: But when DeVante dropped that pass, I just remember thinking, 606 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: this is plenty of time for the commanders and that 607 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 2: was enough time. Jane Daniels was gonna work his magic, 608 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 2: and hee did. He got them all the way down 609 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: in shooting range, down inside the low red zone with 610 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 2: ten seconds remaining. Man Bran Weinstein has the rest. 611 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: Second and goal just inside the ten. 612 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 12: Logan, How with ten seconds? How many shots did you 613 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 12: can't use the two shots? You think we can get 614 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 12: three off. 615 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 9: You can get two shots, but you gotta be really 616 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 9: mindful on the first one, right. 617 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: The second one is basically an untimed down. Yeah, but 618 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: if we're gonna take a shot here, let's give it. 619 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: Give Terry a look here back of the end zone. 620 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: It's Terry or nothing. 621 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 4: You can't catch it in play because I don't think 622 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 4: you enough time to spike it. 623 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 12: So long as a go I learned one on one 624 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 12: Convince and fee Ba to Terry. 625 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 4: Second goal at the ten, snapped the dangles, he. 626 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 12: Goes break four, talk down the Crowner. 627 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 2: Amazing lunch football from the ones in it on. 628 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 12: That dang done it again, done it a cana. This 629 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 12: is absolutely I'm talking. I think about this. Shay, the Daiels, 630 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 12: the magic bat, the kid, the coffer behind victory. 631 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: Wanna do wanna. 632 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 12: Cat, wanna play. 633 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 1: Unbelieve it all. 634 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 12: This guy's I believe it all. 635 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 4: Lookie of the years. 636 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: It's more than that. It is more than that. Up 637 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 1: he drives them down the field. 638 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 4: They just have to survive six seconds. 639 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 2: They're gonna go for two one, They're gonna go for 640 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 2: two here, why not. 641 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 11: They're gonna overcome five turnovers to beat the Eagles. 642 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: I guess that's how you do it. 643 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 2: Five turnovers, you throw five touchdowns, and that's what Jaden 644 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 2: Daniels did. He tacked on a two point conversion onto 645 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 2: that to make it thirty six thirty three. The Commanders 646 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: would then have to stop the Stanford Band play. They 647 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 2: were able to stop it. The Commanders scored twenty two 648 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 2: points in the fourth quarter to win thirty six thirty 649 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 2: three and move one step closer to the playoffs in 650 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 2: the NFC. Daniels two fifty eight through the air, five tuddies. 651 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 2: You did throw two picks, five tounyes, sake one at 652 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty yards rushing at two touchdowns. Zaki 653 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 2: has had two touchdowns through the air. Jayden also ran 654 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 2: for eighty one, so give him three thirty nine total 655 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: on the day. Jalen Hurts went out of this game 656 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: with a concussion, so that'll be something to Watson. The 657 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 2: Eagles had to keep pace with the Lions but couldn't. 658 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: Eagles ball to twelve and. 659 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 2: Three and the Vikings won and the Lions won. So 660 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 2: now you look at the Eagles with the two seed. 661 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,359 Speaker 2: We'll see how it finishes out. But what a great 662 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 2: win for Washington. And I couldn't help but think about 663 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 2: Washington and US last year we had those moments with 664 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 2: CJ last year Tampa Bay, Cincinnati, just awesome moments. 665 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: And now Washington's had. 666 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 2: Him this year with Jayden Daniels tail Mary against the 667 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 2: Bears that win yesterday, throwing a touchdown with ten seconds 668 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 2: left to Jamison crowder Man. It's just awesome, awesome stuff 669 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 2: going on in Washington this year. Jaydon Daniels getting it done. 670 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 2: Dan Quinn should be up for Coach of the Year. 671 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 2: It has been a phenomenal, phenomenal showing for the Commanders 672 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four. Okay, if that wasn't the game 673 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 2: of the Day on Sunday, and I'm pretty sure it was, 674 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 2: so maybe I'll just say it was a close second. 675 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: Was what took place? 676 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 2: In Seattle the Vikings in the Seahawks locked horns in 677 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 2: man a game. I thought it was Vikings all the way, Like, 678 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 2: I thought the Vikings were just gonna dominate this thing. 679 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: And it felt that way early on when Justin Jefferson 680 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: got a touchdown in the second quarter to make it 681 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 2: fourteen to seven Vikings. 682 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 13: Burton three from the Seattle fourteen seven to seven in 683 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 13: the second quarter, Naylor. 684 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 4: In motion to the right, Donald pros to. 685 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: The end zone, caught touching. 686 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 13: Justin Jefferson from Sam Donald, and Justin is popularizing the 687 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 13: gritty in the Pacific Northwest. The Vikings have a thirteen 688 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 13: to seven. 689 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 14: Lead, and what an unbelievable throw by Sam Donald, Paul, 690 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 14: just an incredible throw on the outside, not a lot 691 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:56,399 Speaker 14: of room. 692 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: Now we have a flag in the end zone. Yeah, 693 00:36:58,640 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: I thought it came in late. 694 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 14: Yeah, So I don't know what exactly this is gonna 695 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 14: be about, but so hopefully the Touchdownald's stand if it 696 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 14: happened after the play boom, But what an unbelievable throw 697 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 14: by Sam Donald on the outside. 698 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: Yep, they Yeah, the penalty came in way late. 699 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 3: Unsporto after the touchdown, unsports bled conduct Minnesota number eighteen. 700 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess that's what doing the gritty gets you 701 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 2: as a fifteen yard penalty, but it gave the Vikings 702 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 2: a fourteen to seven lead. Will rekerd fuel goal a 703 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 2: few minutes later gave the Vikings a seventeen to seven lead, 704 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 2: but right before the half, less than thirty seconds left, 705 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: Gino Smith would find Jackson Smith in jigba to cut 706 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 2: the lead to seventeen to fourteen right before the half. 707 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 4: First and ten from the Minnesota eighteen. Now for Gina. 708 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 4: One time out left for the Hawks. Here comes to ruck. 709 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 4: Gino steps up, he trug. 710 00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 7: He's got Texas Smith to Jaca touchdown, say Hawks. JSN 711 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 7: running away from the quarterback Murphy to his side againy 712 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 7: in this year side quarter of the end zone and 713 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 7: a perfect row by Gino Smith eighteen yards out and 714 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 7: JSN has his sixth touchdown reception. 715 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,720 Speaker 1: The Seahawks are within three. 716 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 2: A Jason Meyers forty three yard field on the first 717 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 2: drive of the third quarter would tie it at seventeen. 718 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 2: Then Will Reiker took the lead again for the Vikings 719 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 2: of forty eight yard field, which got to sit to 720 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter with the Vikings with a three point lead. 721 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: Then it was time for rookie tight end A J. Barnard, 722 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 2: who has been a not a big surprise, but a 723 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 2: strong surprise for the Seahawks, a late round pick that 724 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 2: is really turning out. He caught this four yard pass 725 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 2: and looked like the Seahawks we're gonna get a victory 726 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: against the Vikings. 727 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 4: Tight end Farroh Brown wings on the left side. Gino's 728 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 4: gonna throw on third down and goal fires. 729 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 7: Backsholder in zone touch up Seahawks. 730 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 1: Barner reaches up under the gold post and. 731 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 7: Makes the catch on an absolute laser thrown out of 732 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 7: a bazooka from Gino Smith and the Seahawks take the 733 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 7: first lead of the day. The third touchdown for Barner 734 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 7: this year, a four yarder makes it twenty three to 735 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 7: twenty Hawks on top. 736 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 2: But less than a minute later, Sam Donald made it 737 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 2: happen again. His expiration date is not hitting and he 738 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: makes it throw to Justin Jefferson for the Vikings to 739 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 2: take the lead. And I haven't heard the call yet, 740 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 2: but I got a feeling. Our friend Paul Allen had 741 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 2: some fun with this one. This gave the Vikings a 742 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty four lead thirty nine yards from 743 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 2: Sam Darnald to jettis first. 744 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 13: And ten from the Seattle thirty nine breach at the 745 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 13: eighth to go. Seattle leads by four. In the fourth quarter, 746 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 13: Sam so Sam throws left cut Jefferson touchdown. 747 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 2: Sam the man. 748 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 13: On the fan finds the moneymaker Justin Jefferson and the 749 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,800 Speaker 13: Vikings have taken a twenty six twenty four lead. 750 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 2: But in this game, nothing was over till zero's hit 751 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: on the clock. The Seahawks came back down and had 752 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: a chance. Now got a great chance when you're sixty 753 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:33,240 Speaker 2: yards out, but had a chance to tie it from 754 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 2: sixty Jason Myers. 755 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 1: Could it happen? 756 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 13: Jason Myers kicks with his right foot geminus to go 757 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 13: in the game, bikes by three. Sixty yard field goal 758 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 13: try by Myers, snap spot, right footed. 759 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 14: Kick us up. 760 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: It's not close. 761 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 4: No good. Hey listed by a mile and. 762 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 13: The Minnesota Vikings have turned over the Seattle Seahawks, and 763 00:40:58,840 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 13: as Paul said, no good. 764 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 2: Twenty seven twenty four. Vikings move to thirteen and two. 765 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 2: Sam Donald throws three tutties, Justin Jefferson has two. He 766 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 2: has ten catches for one hundred and forty four yards. 767 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 2: Jackson Smith, the Jigba is turning into one of the 768 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 2: better receivers in the league. Kind of thought that was 769 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 2: gonna happen when he's coming out Ohio State. That's a 770 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 2: straight running baller. Eight catches ninety five yards and a touchdown. 771 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 2: Gino through three touchdowns at three and fourteen yards, but 772 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: two interceptions, including a final one that sealed the deal 773 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 2: for the Seahawks. 774 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: The Seahawks fall to eight and seven. 775 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,760 Speaker 2: Now they're still right there for the NFC West title, 776 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 2: but now they kind of need some things to happen. 777 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 2: And in Week eighteen, I believe they play the Rams. 778 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 2: So the Rams are nine and six, the Seahawks eight 779 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 2: and seven. So it's gonna come down. I think to 780 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 2: that final week to see who wins the NFC West. 781 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 2: But the Seahawks lose a gup punch to the Minnesota 782 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 2: Vikings up in Seattle. Okay, that's gonna do it for 783 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:12,919 Speaker 2: Week sixteen around the NFL. Now, today tonight is Christmas Eve. 784 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 2: The Texans have had a few moments on Christmas Eve. 785 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 2: One of my favorites happened in the year of twenty sixteen. 786 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 2: It's one of my favorite nights not only with the Texans, 787 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 2: but one of my favorite nights ever. We'll look back 788 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 2: at it quickly.

In twenty twenty two, 799 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 2: Texans went to Nashville on a day that was less 800 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 2: than zero minus three degrees feels like temperature. 801 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 1: It was incredibly cold. 802 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 2: The game got pushed back, the field was icy, We 803 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 2: had a delay. Dereck Henry went fifty yards for a run. 804 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,919 Speaker 2: We thought, oh god, here we go again, and then 805 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 2: the Texans turned around, Jake Hansen forced to fumble, Christian 806 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 2: Harris picked off Malik Willis, and the Texans walked out 807 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 2: of there with a w nobody thought they would have. 808 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,280 Speaker 2: And it's one of a consecutive streak they got going 809 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 2: now on the road in the division. But the game 810 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 2: that always stands out on December twenty fourth happened in 811 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen.

But look, the Titans were playing pretty 829 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,800 Speaker 2: good football at that time. We had spanked them earlier 830 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 2: in the year, but they started playing some really good football. 831 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 2: Marcus Mariota was starting to get it. 832 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: And here we. 833 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 2: Were, all right, well, let's look at this.

Lombhold Jaguars get to win. 846 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 2: So all of a sudden, the game against the Bengals 847 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 2: turns into an AFC South clinching opportunity. But the game 848 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 2: is going sideways because the Texas can't score. 849 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: But they got the lead, and. 850 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: Then Brandon LaFell took one night the Houston Kid took 851 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 2: one ninety yards to the house to give the Bengals 852 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 2: the lead. And then the next four plays told the 853 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 2: story of this sea, and the fourth play was the 854 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 2: one that put the Texans back in front. Alfred Blue 855 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 2: ran it in from twenty four yards out to give 856 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 2: the Texans a twelve ten. 857 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 3: Lead, and I to the left of Savage, who's in 858 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 3: the guten first down at the Cincinnati twenty four yard line. 859 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 3: Blue and Fedorwitz to the backfield, but I'm two receivers 860 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 3: to the right hand off Blue to the left side 861 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 3: cuts it off twenty fifteen to ten to five, rock 862 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 3: and roll touchdown. 863 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 7: Texans. 864 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 3: Houston retexta lead twenty four yard touchdown. 865 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 2: Runs Alfred Blue, but as luck would have it, the 866 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 2: Bengals would not go away. Andy Dalton kept finding Rex 867 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 2: Burkhead and got the Bengals in position to kick a 868 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 2: game winning Fueld goal. With former Texan Randy Bullock, I 869 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 2: just have so many thoughts going on in my head, 870 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 2: former Texan, this can't happen. And I'm standing back behind 871 00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 2: a goalpost like I always do, And I said, you 872 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 2: know what, I'm not standing in between the goal. 873 00:46:58,840 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: I'm standing. 874 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 2: I'm staying outside. Maybe he'll kick it right over my 875 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 2: head and I'll be damn. He kicked it right over 876 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 2: my head, wide right, no. 877 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 3: Timeouts left for either team. Five seconds to go. Texans 878 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 3: lead twelve ten. If they hang on, they win the 879 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 3: AFC South. If they don't, they'll play next week at 880 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 3: Tennessee to the championship. Forty three yard a tip between 881 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:26,280 Speaker 3: the hashes for Randy Bullock. Huber will hold, snaps down, bullets, 882 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 3: kick is up, it's got the. 883 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: Leg and it's no good. 884 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 3: The Texans win, Houston wins the AFC South. Well, the 885 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:39,320 Speaker 3: twelve ten victory over the Bengals mistfield goal. 886 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 4: At the buzzer, and. 887 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 3: The Texans are the AFC South champions. 888 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 4: Fantastic. 889 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 2: I stayed up till before in the morning, fire on 890 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 2: little Chill in the air, just watching that whole. 891 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: Thing all over again NFL Network.
