Speaker 2: It wasn't really a game.

12
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: It was a two and a half quarter is a

13
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: little bit more than that, but it was kind of

14
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: cool to see them in operation and we'll discuss that.

15
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,720

21
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 3: This is incredible. I mean, it's awesome. We're at Jersey

22
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 3: Sports Bar. We're literally across I seventy seven from the

23
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame, and they're Texans fans inside. They're Texans

24
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 3: fans all outside. They're giving away Hall of Fame helmets.

25
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 3: Oh by the way, if you're listening and you got

26
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 3: a drink ticket, cash it in now.

27
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, I was told that.

28
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: I'm sure people listening in the Woodlands right now appreciate that.

29
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: People conra are like, I got drink tickets driving around

30
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: a deer park. How do I cash in my drink

31
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: ticket in Canton, Ohio?

32
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 3: Exactly? So I'll figure it out, you know what I'm saying.

33
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 3: I figured we do need to at least I guess

34
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 3: the speakers are on. Some people here are listening. But

35
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 3: this has been an unbelievable experience. We went to the

36
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 3: right jerseys finally. That was my fault. Navigated us to

37
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,199
Speaker 3: the wrong, wrong jersey.

38
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: It's not like one random Texans fan like this is

39
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: not quite right.

40
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 3: Then we got here, We're like, oh, this is right.

41
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: This is the place, this is this is the place.

42
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 3: It is incredible to see the number of eighty jerseys

43
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 3: and we see Stroud jerseys, tankder I mean just Texans

44
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 3: hats and shirts, and I mean Clint's wearing a shirt

45
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 3: that I had on last night, Downdrey Johnson's shirt from

46
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 3: from uh Homage, which is just a great company that's

47
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: in Cincinnati and they do great stuff. It is. It's incredible.

48
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: And then you see on Twitter lit while ago Andre's

49
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: going into the dinner. You see him walking in. You're like,

50
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 3: he's getting that gold jacket tonight. It's so good, it's

51
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 3: so good.

52
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, we're plopped right down in the middle of

53
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: a great Houston experience. Here all the fans who made

54
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: a trip to Canton. I'm really applauding them. Got into

55
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: a conversation with some fans out here asking me what

56
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: my favorite Andre Johnson moment was.

57
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 3: Or is and one time you had to get on

58
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 3: the air at seven.

59
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: One guy said, uh.

60
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: One guy said his favorite is the catch against Minnesota

61
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: and O four, And I saluted him because remember we

62
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: did that Iceberg day with the different levels of fandom.

63
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 2: That's deep, man's if you remember.

64
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: That catch against the Vikings at four that was actually

65
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: an overtime loss unfortunately, but man, that was a heck

66
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: of a game and he made that tremendous catture. He

67
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: got flipped over kind of helicopter in the end zone

68
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: and hung on to the football. Wait, what is yours

69
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: favorite Andre Johnson moment could be anything you want.

70
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is it? So I got asked this this

71
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 3: morning in Austin. You know what mine is. It's kind

72
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 3: of a random one. But my first sideline, as you

73
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 3: know it is twenty fourteen. We go to Dallas. Yeah,

74
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 3: and we had that game, and that was a game

75
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 3: where Texans fans traveling Texans showed up. It was probably

76
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 3: fifty sixty percent Texans, and they were all down kind

77
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 3: of that corner end zone, like underneath where the booth

78
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 3: is right. They were a lot of them over there.

79
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 3: So Arian scored within under underneath a minute left, I think,

80
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 3: and he went to the right score and was like, yes,

81
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: Andre was on the opposite side of the field on

82
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 3: that formation, so he was opposite. He was over there

83
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 3: with one other defensive back. And so when Arian scored,

84
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 3: for some reason, my eyes went to Andrea. I don't

85
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: know why. And I just remember Andre was literally standing

86
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 3: on the star in the helmet that's painted in the

87
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: end zone and as helmet as his cowboys. He was

88
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 3: standing in the star just happened to be there, and

89
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: he was having like his one man celebration with the fans,

90
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: and they were just going to He was just he

91
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: was just like pumping his fist and just you know,

92
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: doing things that you didn't expect andre to doe, but

93
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: just feeling that moment. And I know we didn't win

94
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 3: the game, but he was just feeling that moment of

95
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 3: we came back in this place and look at our

96
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 3: fans and they're supporting us. It was just this really

97
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 3: cool moment that if I'm following the ball, I probably

98
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 3: never see it, but I just happened to see him

99
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 3: out the corner of my eye and he's just looking

100
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: up in the stands and he's just celebrating all the fans.

101
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 3: I thought it was one of the coolest things I've

102
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 3: ever seen.

103
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: Was the fourth and ten against Yeremiah Bell because that

104
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: and I know it wasn't the biggest win in the world,

105
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: but you're about to go on five and it's an

106
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: interception and he plucks it over the top of year

107
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: Amaiah Bell, and I just thought that was the greatest

108
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: catch that nobody ever talks about much. So that's my

109
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: personal favorite moment, favorite play he made. But there's so

110
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: many other moments we can go on and on. Andrey

111
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: Johnson getting into the Hall of Fame can wait.

112
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 3: You know, I think about in this moment somewhere Keyo.

113
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 3: Kraber formerly of Nebraska is like, I told you that

114
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 3: dude was good. I told you he to way back

115
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 3: in the day. So yeah, when we were in the

116
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,239
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame yesterday, I saw A and Andre Johnson

117
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: Miami number five jersey I saw. Listen to this, it

118
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 3: was a family mark. It was a family with T

119
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 3: The mom was wearing TJ. Watt right, the sun was

120
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 3: wearing JJ Watt. Yeah, the daughter was wearing I can't

121
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 3: another Texans jersey. And then there was another kid that

122
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: was wearing a shroud jersey.

123
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 2: That's okay, that's covered.

124
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 3: Like they did. They kind of covered all bases. But

125
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 3: the fact that the mom was wearing a TJ. Watt

126
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 3: jersey I thought was interesting. And what's that? Sure wasn't

127
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 3: the family, I don't think so, not for a couple

128
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: of years, which brings me to this point. I know,

129
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: and I've heard from some people were like, man, when

130
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 3: you guys do remote or you guys are out somewhere,

131
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: you do such a great job of kind of painting

132
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 3: the scene, setting the scene for what's out there, Like

133
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 3: I want to be there and We're like, yeah, like

134
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 3: be there, like we would be at the Greenbrie for

135
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 3: training camp. Me here from fans like, man, it sounded

136
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 3: so good. It was seventy two degrees and that sounded

137
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: like such a great place, and we're like, yeah, next year,

138
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 3: go night, don't have fomo go. So if you're sitting

139
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 3: there thinking, well, you know, in three years there could

140
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 3: be another textan going in guess what don't want it? Yeah,

141
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 3: don't miss it.

142
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: Well, that's gonna be an interesting weekend because Tom Brady

143
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: also goes in. Unless JJ starts the clock again. Uh

144
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: oh the five year wait, oh will he do it?

145
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 3: Will they come back?

146
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: We're not gonna discuss that on this particular program tonight,

147
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: but we will discuss what happened last night. Twenty one

148
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: to seventeen game gets called three point thirty one to

149
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:41,799
Speaker 1: go in the third quarter.

150
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: We were on the air for a while until they

151
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: called it.

152
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,799
Speaker 1: Cannot believe that they waited that long to call this game.

153
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: Everything the radar where you were in the game, which

154
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: was relatively late, the fact that you had already played

155
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: all the levels.

156
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: Of the depth chart.

157
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if any player on the sideline of

158
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: his dressed did not get into the game at that point, right,

159
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: I don't think any Texans did not get in at

160
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: that point.

161
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: I think everybody tasted it.

162
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 3: So it was.

163
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: Time to shut it down. Just never mind all that.

164
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: I just said, safety, lightning, heavy rains, whatever. It kept

165
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: rating all night, so they called it three thirty one

166
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: to go in the third Finally, but what did we

167
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: see last night?

168
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 3: You wrote your Harris hits. I wrote a vander blog

169
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 3: about it.

170
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: It was fun to see them take the test drive,

171
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: Davis Mill's case, Keenum looking good in touchdown drives, several

172
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: receivers showing out some running back material. Offensive line who

173
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: were in there in the first half did well. Third quarter,

174
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: I thought things started to unravel a bit, Johnny, and

175
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: they did. I mean, you could tell playing deep behind

176
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: the down and distance markers in a Keenum drive and

177
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: a boiled drive, and you know, we're not gonna say

178
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: it's this guy's fault, that guy's fault. It was kind

179
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: of a snowball effect. They just didn't play well in

180
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: the third quarter as they gave up the lead.

181
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 2: But what you saw in the first.

182
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 3: Half was promising, absolutely offensively. And when I wrote my hit,

183
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 3: so Obviously, we're on the bus back from Campton to

184
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,119
Speaker 3: Cleveland where we're staying, and it was about an hour drive,

185
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 3: and then I think we missed our exits, so it

186
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 3: attacked on another fifteen minutes, so I had a pretty

187
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 3: good amount of time to go through. Of course, my

188
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 3: notes were just shredded from the rain and the wet

189
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff, but it was pretty

190
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: easy to pick out, Oh, that guy can play, and

191
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: the receivers you talked about them they I thought X

192
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 3: looked really good, and we've got my postgame interview with X.

193
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 3: We'll hear that a little bit later in the show.

194
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 3: I thought X was really good five to fifty six.

195
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 3: He doubled up the next post as receiver. I think

196
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 3: Ben Scronick had twenty eight, so it was I thought

197
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 3: it was a really nice performance for X. And here's

198
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 3: the thing. I've been saying this about training in training

199
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 3: camp the entire time, and I don't know if you

200
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 3: saw a Breese Hall tweeted or posted, yeah, he's like

201
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 3: that dude is very good. And I was like, been

202
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 3: saying it, but you kind of get lost in that.

203
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 3: When he's a six round pick, he's spent out no,

204
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: he's not. That dude does so much for you. I

205
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 3: don't know at this point how you can look at

206
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 3: Xavier Hutchinson to think on uh, he's just a practice

207
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 3: squad guy, or he's not gonna make this roster. Last

208
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 3: night showed even how much better he's been in training

209
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 3: camp in preseason to this point. He's been excellent. The

210
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 3: effort he put out.

211
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 2: I want to make this team.

212
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 3: I need to do this to make this football team.

213
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 2: Think about it.

214
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: They didn't dress five guys, the Big three, Robert Woods

215
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: and Noah Brown.

216
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 3: That's right. I think those guys are pretty much in.

217
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,599
Speaker 1: Right, there could be an injury, but barring injury, I

218
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: think those players are in.

219
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: They can all help you win football games.

220
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: And I think Scornic I feel like he's got to

221
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 3: be in. I don't know.

222
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: It's hard to say, Johnny Again, Sometimes I say injury

223
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: solves the problem.

224
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 2: But I don't want to see an injury.

225
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 3: I'm with you, and obviously you don't want one of

226
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 3: the Big three at all. I mean you don't even

227
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 3: want you don't want an injury anywhere. But I go

228
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 3: back to the point, maybe there's somebody that loses the

229
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 3: receiver calls and says, hey, we'll give you a sweetheart

230
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: deal to trade for such and such, and you just

231
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 3: it's too much to like, Hey man, we love you,

232
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 3: but we're loaded at this position. We're gonna make this

233
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: deal and come up with a third or fourth or

234
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 3: fifth round, whatever it might. I don't know who that is,

235
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 3: though I know I don't either. I don't I don't

236
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 3: know who it is. I want to give up. Yeah,

237
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 3: so at that point, it's too early. Anyway, you're gonna

238
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 3: wait on that a little. I think this is a

239
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 3: big week. Three practices up here on a Tuesday, Wednesday,

240
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 3: we'll travel on Thursday, we'll bust everybody's busting to Pittsburgh

241
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 3: and they'll play the game Pittsburgh. Pittburgh's gonna be a

242
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 3: pretty good opportunity. You see a pretty physical secondary for

243
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 3: the receivers in particular. But it's a big week. What

244
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: the preseason games do at some at some point is

245
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 3: that you start to see the separation. You start to

246
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: see some guys that have either struggled a little bit,

247
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 3: but when the lights go on, oh they show up.

248
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 3: Oh okay, that guy becomes not really interesting. You see

249
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 3: some guys like X that just every every practice or

250
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 3: every game. They're just making strides every single day. You're

251
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 3: also seeing guys that have struggled in practice and you

252
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 3: think maybe they'll turn around when the game comes. Nope,

253
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 3: those same issues start showing up during the game. So

254
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 3: now you're starting to see some separation in some places

255
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 3: where I'm like, okay, I can kind of start to

256
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 3: see fifty three man roster practice squad or maybe not

257
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,359
Speaker 3: even on either. You start to see kind of that separation.

258
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 3: And it happens every training camp, it happens every preseason,

259
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 3: and it's happening now a little bit. But I think

260
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 3: more of it will happen even more as we get

261
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh. That's what it's gonna happen. But I'll tell

262
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 3: you what quarterbacks last night, I thought, I thought Davis

263
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 3: looked as comfortable as calm as he's looked. I thought

264
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 3: the touchdown at Puertorreona was great. He started left, little pump,

265
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 3: didn't have it, came back to the other side, Boom,

266
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 3: there's Quatreon. That's exactly how you play quarterback. That's it, yep.

267
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 3: But part of it was he had great protection and

268
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 3: I called him the left siders the guys on the

269
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 3: left side, Kenny Green Blake Fisher handled some stunts, did

270
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 3: a pretty good job kept the pressure off. I thought

271
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 3: they played much better than they had been showing in practice.

272
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 3: Now there's facing some Bears backups, but still, yeah, what's

273
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 3: in front of you? Block them, right, block them? Block

274
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 3: them well? Let Davis throw in eight it.

275
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: Fisher did not have to face will Anderson last night,

276
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: which helped.

277
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 3: He did not face Montes sweat Yeah, which as well.

278
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: So how did the head coach feel?

279
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 4: Well?

280
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: You, John Harris had a chance to visit with Tamiko

281
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: Ryans after the game.

282
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 2: Let's check that out.

283
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 3: Coach. You get cheated out of the fourth quarter, but

284
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 3: it feel like you got the work that you wanted

285
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 3: to get through, regardless of the weather.

286
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. I think we got the work in that we needed.

287
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 6: A lot of guys were able to get some quality

288
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 6: reps in and you you can see right who's ready

289
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 6: for that moment?

290
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: Right?

291
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 6: You want to see guys go out and do what

292
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 6: we've asked them to do and see if they can

293
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 6: do it right.

294
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 5: Some guys can. Some guys need a little bit more work,

295
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 5: and it's something to build off of.

296
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 6: I think It's really cool for our especially our young guys,

297
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 6: to see themselves on tape, to get reps and see

298
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 6: what it's like to play in their first NFL games.

299
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 5: So a lot of valuable reps learned from it.

300
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 7: We're just talking about rookies, but I think second year

301
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 7: guys in preseason games are always interesting to watch because

302
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 7: how much progress have they made?

303
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 3: Can you see the sky? Like Xavier Hutchinson, what'd you

304
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 3: think of his performance tonight?

305
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, you saw HUDs come out and you saw confidence, right,

306
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 6: he saw confidence. So when he had the ball in

307
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 6: his hand, he was decisive, like getting up feel So

308
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 6: that's what the second year guy's all about. Man, I've

309
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 6: been here, I've done it is not new now, how

310
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 6: can I really showcase like, Man, I'm better it's second

311
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 6: time around, And think huss took advantage of that.

312
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 3: Tonight, And you also want to see progress for your

313
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 3: veterans too.

314
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 7: It feels like watching Davis Mills coach, every day seems

315
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 7: to get better and better, and it felt like tonight

316
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 7: was really I don't say the coronation of that, but

317
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 7: it felt like it was kind of the culmination of

318
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 7: that work that he seems to be progressing each every

319
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 7: time he goes out there.

320
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, David's is progressing really well.

321
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 3: You just see.

322
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 6: I saw a cool demeanor, right, I saw a guy

323
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 6: who wasn't faking that starts with the old line protecting.

324
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 5: They did a good job, but saw a guy really

325
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 5: running the.

326
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 6: Show, commanding a huddle and just moving down the field,

327
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 6: methodically moving down drive at the drive.

328
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: So I'm encouraged, very encourage where Davis is defensively. I

329
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 3: know that's when you're gonna spend a lot of time

330
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 3: tonight tomorrow morning looking at what are the things that

331
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 3: you want to go back that you know tonight? Okay,

332
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 3: we got to go change this.

333
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 5: Man, just watching it, just seeing us first off, affecting

334
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 5: the quarterback. Don't think we affected the quarterback much with

335
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:11,839
Speaker 5: our rush.

336
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 6: And also just assignment football. I talked about that at halftime. Man,

337
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 6: too many players where guys are running free uncover. That's

338
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 6: not who we are defensively. So it's just a matter

339
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 6: of guys like who can do their job?

340
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 5: Who can we count on.

341
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 3: I'll ask you one more question about a rookie. It's

342
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 3: hard to miss number forty one, Kaylen Bullyy, what you

343
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 3: see from the young buck tonight.

344
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 5: It's what he's done all practice, all training camp.

345
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 6: It's attacking the football and then see him come up

346
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 6: and let that big here to get the football out.

347
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 6: We've seen it day after day after day in camp,

348
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 6: and man, how excited it is to see him like

349
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 6: not waiver or not get big eyed in the moment,

350
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 6: like he stepped up and did continue to be who

351
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 6: he's been on camp.

352
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 3: We got eight days here in Ohio, we got Hall

353
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: of Fame induction, coach, we got a lot to do.

354
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: I know you got a works where we'll let you go.

355
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 3: Appreciate your talk, coach, No, thank you, looking forward to it.

356
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 2: All right, there's Tamiko Ryans with you after the game.

357
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 2: So what did you think? What kind of move was

358
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 2: he in after? He's always actually a pretty good positive.

359
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was in a pretty good mood out, but

360
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 3: he did not like the defense, you know, no, no,

361
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 3: And when I asked him about that at halftime, I

362
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 3: could tell he was fired up. He was very pointed

363
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 3: with that. Yeah, and I've learned. I've learned. I've learned

364
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: a Demico trick. I don't know if I should share

365
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 3: it on share it on the air, but I I

366
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: know when Dimiko's like, Okay, somebody's getting talking to, he's

367
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 3: gotta tell, he's gotta tell. I've figured it out. I

368
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: figured it out last night. So there's definitely a tell.

369
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 3: And with primetime games, he's probably gonna have a few

370
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 3: more of those, you know, everybody watching his games.

371
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: One of seven national windows six in the regular season

372
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: that the Texans are going to get.

373
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 3: I'm curious what games on Thursday. I think I heard

374
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 3: said that last night. The Love games on Thursday next week,

375
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: So that'll be the next iteration of these kickoffs. But

376
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 3: you just think about it. Let's let's just do math

377
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 3: here for a second. In the Super Bowl, we didn't

378
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 3: have any kickoff returns, right, Guys just ran down the

379
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 3: field and the ball was down in the end zone.

380
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 3: No time.

381
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 2: All touchbacks, all touchbacks.

382
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 3: Right, So there's no collisions. Right. So I don't know

383
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: how many kickoffs there weren't a game, but it was

384
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 3: a significant amount. I think there's twenty two. Lots of scoring, yeah,

385
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 3: but there were a fuel goals, a lot of field goals,

386
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 3: a ton of touchdowns.

387
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: But there are a ton of think about that.

388
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 3: Say there are ten total scores, okay, and whatever way

389
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 3: you put it together. Yeah, so that means there's at

390
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 3: least twelve kickoffs. Yep. So there are twelve kickoffs and

391
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 3: there are no collisions. Now you've got twelve kickoffs, you've

392
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 3: got twelve collisions throughout a game. It's gonna happen where

393
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 3: guys are gonna get banged up at some point. Now,

394
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: I they could be valuable players, you exactly. I still

395
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 3: think there's gonna be because of some of the different

396
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 3: play schemes and things that you might see on kickoffs

397
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 3: that might slow guys down a little bit. Yeah, like

398
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 3: you know, hey, these guys like to run reverses. Maybe

399
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 3: it's a little bit more of a slow up as

400
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: opposed to just a pen of years back and go.

401
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 3: I don't know, And you just think about like a

402
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 3: team that, like the Texans, the defense likes to penetrate,

403
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 3: get upfield, right, So what's the offense do? Will they

404
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 3: trap it when they won run like a wham block

405
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,120
Speaker 3: where invite the guy up the field and boom right

406
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 3: soide them or something. As a defensive lineman, you got

407
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 3: to be ready for that. You penetrate, but you're kind

408
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 3: of like, all right, where could it? And maybe that's

409
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 3: what starts happening on kickoff last night. You were not

410
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: going to see that. You're just gonna see guys balls

411
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: to the wall, boom they're going and whatever happens happens.

412
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 2: How hot does this take?

413
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 3: You rate?

414
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: The sizzle fires on this They scrapped the whole thing

415
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,239
Speaker 1: before the regular season. Four that's pretty hot. Four, that's

416
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: a pretty hot take.

417
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 3: I'm not going all the way there because what they've

418
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 3: what they've they've been making changes as they go, I know,

419
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 3: And so it could be hey or.

420
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 2: Bothered me last night.

421
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: Well, you brought up a good point when we were

422
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: riding around today going to lunch. You said, why did

423
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: the XFL draw, Right, because the UFL doesn't use it?

424
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: That's right, except the UFL does not use it any They.

425
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: Have regular kickoffs, garden variety kickoffs.

426
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 3: So I I just think the thought is you're gonna

427
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 3: have more returns, right, Well, if you're gonna have a

428
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 3: much more returns, you're gonna have.

429
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: A lot more collisions.

430
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 3: And because you have a lot more collisions, you're gonna

431
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 3: get guys hurt.

432
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, case Keenum he was not hurt, but

433
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: he missed a couple of days of practice.

434
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 2: And training camp, came back, looked good, and then played.

435
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 1: Last night and looked real good through that touchdown pass

436
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: to Cam Akers. I can't believe we haven't gotten to

437
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: him yet, but we will because he comes up in

438
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: this interview. I would imagine with Drew Doherty, who caught

439
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: up with the veteran case Ketum.

440
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 3: After the game, I feel like third, Nay, what did

441
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 3: you see?

442
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: Oh?

443
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 5: It felt good.

444
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 8: It always feels good too, uh, you know, to get

445
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 8: some live reps and against somebody else besides our defense.

446
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 3: You know.

447
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 8: So obviously it was a Hall of Fame game, preseason game,

448
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 8: pretty simple concepts defenses out there. But it's fun to

449
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 8: see some young guys compete. Thought Hutch made some really

450
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 8: good catches.

451
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: Uh.

452
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 8: Steven Simms, I thought showed up. It was fun to

453
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 8: see Davis, uh, you know, take the guys down and

454
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 8: score and go through some reads that weren't exactly easy

455
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 8: looks based on you know, what was what was available.

456
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 8: He got to some checkdowns and got to some backside

457
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 8: reads that were a really good quarterback and play. So

458
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 8: I was really pumped for him. Hated the rain delay.

459
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,199
Speaker 8: You know, Tim doesn't get his reps there in the end.

460
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 8: But you know, we got an extra preseason game, so

461
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 8: hopefully we all get more reps coming up soon.

462
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 5: But yeah, overall, I thought, well, Line, you know, played

463
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 5: well protected.

464
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 8: Well, you know, it's tough when we had some guys

465
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 8: go down to run the ball and some you know,

466
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 8: the little game planning we did or little stuff we're

467
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 8: having run ten personnel too to try to run some

468
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 8: of them do some of our run game, It's like

469
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 8: it's hard to do.

470
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 4: You touched on a little bit there in that answer,

471
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 4: and you talk about some of those young guys catching

472
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 4: the ball, tight.

473
00:19:58,440 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 5: Ends, receivers.

474
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 4: What's good you most enthusied about that whole crew and

475
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 4: especially the ones you were throwing to tonight.

476
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 8: I think Match has had an incredible kid, I really

477
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 8: really do. He's played really well. He's playing so fast,

478
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 8: he's he's not having to think as much, he's just playing,

479
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 8: and he knows offense now. It's got a year under

480
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 8: his belt and coming back from when he's coming back

481
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 8: from he's got a great mindset.

482
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 3: I love I love throwing him the ball.

483
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 8: I think Cade showed some really good stuff tonight. I

484
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 8: think he's got really good ball skills. He's trying to

485
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 8: think of who he reminds me of, maybe like a

486
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 8: Kyle Rudolph type, like not quite as tall if I

487
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 8: remember correctly.

488
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 5: But h man just great ball skills and he's a

489
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 5: load too man like.

490
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 3: But can block.

491
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 8: Yeah that's just like you said, I mean, can can

492
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 8: do whatever we need him to do. I think he

493
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 8: played every step tonight just about and probably some special

494
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 8: teams too. So yeah, I mean just a tough old

495
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 8: farm farm boy man from Ohio, you know.

496
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 3: So.

497
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 8: Uh, his school choice was a little suspect.

498
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 5: No, I'm just kidding. Know he's he's uh, he's a.

499
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 3: Good, good kid.

500
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,360
Speaker 5: I'm I'm enjoyed Thumber the football. I felt better.

501
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 8: We had a good learning experience there on that last

502
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 8: little drive, the one. I'm you know, trying to help

503
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 8: him out a little bit. And I can throw a

504
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 8: better ball, he can run a little better oute and uh,

505
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 8: but he's I mean, he's learning.

506
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 3: That's what that's what this game is about.

507
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, right like the first preseason, second preseason,

508
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 4: that's what that's what happens.

509
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 8: Right exactly right, you know we're gonna we're gonna all

510
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 8: look at this and be like you know what, we

511
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 8: did some good things, but there's some things we can

512
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:25,719
Speaker 8: definitely get better at too.

513
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 4: So last thing he threw touchdowns to the guy on

514
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 4: Saturday is going in the hall. How special is that

515
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 4: going to be for you? How cool is it seeing

516
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 4: the the stuff during the game tonight, Andre Johnson Pro

517
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 4: Football Hall of Fame.

518
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 8: Man, it's unbelievable. I mean, it's surreal that it's him.

519
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 8: I just I know it was Dre Andre. You know,

520
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 8: like a guy played with a friend, like you know,

521
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 8: somebody I really care about, and.

522
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's the best of all time.

523
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 8: It's it's obviously really cool to uh have played long

524
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 8: enough now to to see him going in it.

525
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 3: Man, it's so excited for him.

526
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 8: Actually, when a couple of those guys walked out, I'm

527
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 8: like been sacked by him, then hit by him, and

528
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 8: I'm like, god le mans in.

529
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 4: A way that I mean, Andre's been saying I'm bringing

530
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 4: a lot of people with me. I couldn't have done this.

531
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 4: So you're going in kind of with him, weren't you.

532
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 8: I'll take that if he says it, if he says

533
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 8: it from his mouth, it's true case.

534
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 4: Keenum, thank you for the time.

535
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 1: Thanks true Kase Ketum and Drew Doherty after the game, Canton,

536
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: Ohio Texans down four when the game is called, We'll never.

537
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 2: Know what would have happened, but it doesn't matter exactly,

538
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: and it doesn't matter because it was what it was.

539
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 1: You're already way deep into the roster, and we learned

540
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: what we're gonna learn about the team. And interesting to

541
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: hear from Case who had that bad snap, picked it

542
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: up through it to cam Akers, who whoop, whoop? Got

543
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: a first Dan out of the deal, Johnny, that was

544
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: a heck of a play. Acres caps that drive with

545
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: a four yard touchdown reception. I felt like, Okay, bubble wrap,

546
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: I want Acres on this football team. Work it out somehow,

547
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: some way. This guy's a thoroughbread running back. You have

548
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon, Damian Pierce, Cam Akers. I still think Dares

549
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 1: on the team. I don't know what you do about

550
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,479
Speaker 1: Jordans British Brooks JJ. Look, you got a lot of backs,

551
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: but that's a good problem to have, a to have

552
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:24,719
Speaker 1: all these bodies.

553
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 3: Because I think I've seen enough for Akers right now.

554
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 2: You gotta see more of them in the preseason.

555
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 3: But he proved that he's back from the Achilles.

556
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: He's just got to stay out there because if he's

557
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: out there, he's gonna be able to make plays.

558
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think you and I talked about this

559
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 3: said lunch this afternoon. When you start thinking about roster spots,

560
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 3: you start thinking about, Man, if we were to wave

561
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 3: or release this player, yep, could we get him back

562
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 3: on practice squad? People just I think around the league

563
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 3: just wanted to see cam Akers healthy because if they

564
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 3: see cam Akers helps go, they know what he can do.

565
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 3: You can take him anywhere, no way. So you're watching

566
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 3: that game last night, if you're somewhere else going okay,

567
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 3: Texans cut him and the watch how fast he gets

568
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 3: picked up. So from that perspective, you're like, man, wow,

569
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 3: we can't we can't put it. We can't expose this

570
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 3: guy to the waiver wire because somebody is going to

571
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 3: lose the running back through this preseason and go, hey, hey,

572
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 3: Acres is healthy, go grab him, grab him. So the

573
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 3: spin move, my god, that was just slick. But in

574
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 3: practice he has been So I wrote this in Harris

575
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 3: Hit So this was the last padded practice. This kind

576
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 3: of tells you a little something about cam Akers. We

577
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 3: told you the story about how a number of years

578
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 3: ago he was in high school, I watched the state

579
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 3: championship game and I was blown away by this guy

580
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 3: play quarterback. And he played quarterback. He threw for like

581
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 3: two hundred something yards, he gets seven touchdowns of the

582
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 3: state championship game. He's just a freaking nature. That's ridiculous

583
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 3: contact balance for days. Same as we've been talking about

584
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 3: Cam Akers for a little bit. So again practice, he's

585
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 3: getting more and more reps in practice, and so there's

586
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 3: a run play over to the left and there's nothing there.

587
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 3: There's nothing. Now, the defense was getting a little spicy

588
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 3: and in those situations they would thut up and go

589
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 3: make you know, instead of taking the running back all

590
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 3: the way to the ground, Well, there's nothing there.

591
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 2: And Jacob Phillips, which is weird.

592
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 3: Twenty two on twenty two, Phillips tackles him to the

593
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 3: ground like all the way. Like Cam was trying to

594
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 3: like fight through it, and Phillips just grabbing it, tugging

595
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 3: and get him all the way the ground. So Akers

596
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: got up like what's up. Yeah, you could tell he

597
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 3: was steaming a little bit about it. So I'm like, oh, okay,

598
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 3: let's see what happens the very next play, his next play,

599
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 3: So he went out. They recycled and went through the

600
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 3: ones the twos. Acres is back in. Now. They run

601
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 3: a toss the other way and Acres catches the toss

602
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 3: and he turns up field and it's like beep is

603
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 3: like he's a white jersey and he's just took aim

604
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 3: at Mike Ford. Poor guy. Oh and Ford sets up

605
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 3: to make a tackle and Acres lowers the shoulder and

606
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 3: doesn't stop running. Boom runs right through him and he's

607
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 3: coming back from that, kept on going through it. Mark,

608
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: he put him on his wallet. Poor Mike and Acres.

609
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,199
Speaker 3: You know, some guys will go hit and they'll kind

610
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 3: of stop. Yeah, he hit and kept going. Ended up

611
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 3: being like a ten or twelve yard round. And I

612
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 3: just remember, I like that at my running backs. He's

613
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 3: got a long memory. Oh yeah, he remembered. He was

614
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 3: not happy about the last time he carried the ball

615
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 3: the way they He's like, all right, if it's gonna

616
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: be like that, watch this and way you go. And

617
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 3: I just remember thinking, this guy is Each and every

618
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 3: day they've been giving a few more carries, a few

619
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 3: more touches, different touches, it wasn't just outside zone or toss.

620
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 3: They're giving a few more touches. He's getting the ball,

621
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 3: he's catching the ball in the backfield. But last night

622
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 3: was kind of the culmination of all of it. And honestly, though,

623
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 3: I thought Dar Acres and JJ, I thought those three

624
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 3: played really well. Right, Yeah, yeah, JJ had that rung

625
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 3: where he popped through and I thought, oh, safety made

626
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 3: a really nice tackle.

627
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 2: Oh that's right.

628
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,719
Speaker 3: I thought JJ was gonna take that. With the hour

629
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 3: I was loading up for a touchdown call on that one,

630
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 3: I thought it was gonna happen.

631
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 2: You know what I love about acres acceleration. He goes

632
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 2: from zero to full speed so quickly.

633
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 1: That play where Keenum just dumped it off to him,

634
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: he just took off and had the spin move along

635
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 1: the way. That showed you all you needed to see

636
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: in a way, And once they got him into the

637
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: end zone, I thought, Okay, that's good.

638
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 3: That's it.

639
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: I'll see you a week one. Maybe it was definitely

640
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 1: an eye opener. Other eye openers along the way. Xavier

641
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: Hutchinson had a nice game. You mentioned that you talked

642
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: to him.

643
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 2: After the game. What did he have to say about

644
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 2: his performance? And what are we looking for next week

645
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 2: at Pittsburgh As we are.

646
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: In Canton live with the Traveling Texans across the way

647
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: from the Hall of Fame, where I'm very Johnson will

648
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:01,640
Speaker 1: be enshrined tomorrow.

649
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 3: It's Texans Radio. Oh yeah, we are live at Jerseys.

650
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: That's the end of the place in Canton, Ohio, across

651
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: the way from the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

652
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 2: With the Traveling Texans in force here.

653
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: Although a couple of guys just came and said we

654
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: were driving around, we went to two other Jerseys sports.

655
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 2: Bars and we went to the Long one as well here,

656
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna blame that on our navigator. Who might

657
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: that be? It's okay, we saw the area a little bit.

658
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 2: It's good. It's Canton, Ohio.

659
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 3: We had plenty of time. We left in plenty of time.

660
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 3: Now your navigator okay, me like I mess that up.

661
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 3: I'm good with that. So if we're we're outing ourselves,

662
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 3: there is a time change here. So we're like, oh yeah,

663
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 3: yet you know time? What time we're gonna leave today?

664
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: We're like, well, it takes about an hour to get

665
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 3: for Cleveland and Canton. About that, Yeah, let's leave it

666
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 3: three forty five. Okay, five minutes later, I'm like, wait, second.

667
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: Our shows at seven. We're in Eastern time.

668
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 3: So we left it four forty five. Enough time. I

669
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 3: left this plenty and built in enough time for us

670
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 3: YEP to get to uh, to get to jerseys, the

671
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,680

00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 3: the patio there, I mean the traveling Texans have shown.

673
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: I tweeted out a little video at Texans Voice. You

674
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: can see them out there, and there are numerous Texans in.

675
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 3: Here as well.

676
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: Inside.

677
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 5: Where are you go?

678
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 3: Oh, the guys wondering where my button is? I haven't

679
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 3: came off. It's right there.

680
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 4: Right.

681
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: No, that's another one. I've got an Andre Johnson button. Okay,

682
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: taking that, gentleman, gave me one.

683
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 3: I'm taking this one.

684
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 2: You take that one tomorrow to the enshrine.

685
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 3: I've seen you with people and I'm like, I've seen

686
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: people have them. I'm like, wait, I want one of those.

687
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 3: The other thing about the time difference is so this

688
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 3: is a sports bar.

689
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 2: We're watching the Guardians.

690
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: Play up here, and I'm thinking, uh, I'm thinking the

691
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: Central time zone is the best sports fan time zone

692
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: because you really get you the Astros start at seven

693
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: o'clock approximately, and the East Coast games are already well

694
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 1: underway and they end early.

695
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 2: So there's something going on in the East Coast. You

696
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 2: want to see. It ends early.

697
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: Now we're waiting for the Astros to come on, and

698
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: it just feels like, oh, it's so late.

699
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Mountain actually would be pretty good as well.

700
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 2: I mean, you think done really early.

701
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 3: But that's as the older I get, the more I

702
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 3: feel that kind of way, try and figure this one out. Yeah,

703
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 3: so I so I fled obviously with the team.

704
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 2: We're here in Cleveland, Ken Eastern.

705
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 3: Time, right, my son is back home Central time, Yeah,

706
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 3: my daughter's back in La Oh.

707
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get a lot of things the Pacific time.

708
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got a lot going on. My wife had

709
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 3: been up for work up in the Bay Area now

710
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 3: still Pacific time, but up in the Bay Area. So

711
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 3: we're all four in different spots of trying to try

712
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 3: to coordinate. Hey, what time is it you are? And

713
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 3: my my wife and daughter are they're kind of late

714
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 3: night owls where I'm an early early riser. So there

715
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 3: have been some times where I've gotten up early for

716
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 3: to to training camp live and I'm texting like you're

717
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 3: on a bed yet, but they're two hours behind. Now

718
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 3: I can do it two hours now because I'm used

719
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 3: to doing it, But now when we're here, yeah, there's

720
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 3: three hours. And then my son's in Houston. So trying

721
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 3: to figure out all those time zones out like.

722
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: People who work Wall Street related jobs on the West Coast,

723
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: you have that problem.

724
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 3: Well, you know who's gonna have to figure that out? Who?

725
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 3: The Big Twelve. The Big Twelve has teams I think

726
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 3: in all four time zones, I'm pretty.

727
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: Sure, tough. Well what about the ACC.

728
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 3: You see it's not Stanford. Yeah, so Stanford and cal

729
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,959
Speaker 3: Er in the a C. Stanford, cal and SMU.

730
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 1: That's I know, I mean good for SMU. I know

731
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: a lot of SMU people, So congratulations.

732
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 3: And Stanford being in the ACC is just stupid. It's dumb.

733
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 2: You're bright people.

734
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 3: You can't come up with a better solution than this

735
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 3: than being.

736
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: In the ACC.

737
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 9: So there are some things that happen in life where

738
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 9: you see it and you're like, Okay, the absurdity of

739
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 9: this is so much that we just we got to

740
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 9: stop it right there.

741
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 3: It just stops right here, And that to me is

742
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 3: the way when I saw Callen Stanford going the ACC

743
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 3: That's when I was like, okay.

744
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: Done, wait, where's Washington State?

745
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 3: Okay, Washington State and Oregon State are still together in

746
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 3: the quote unquote PAC twelve, and they've kind of semi

747
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 3: merged with the Mountain West.

748
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 2: How do you call it? The Pac twelve? They have

749
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 2: two teams?

750
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: Two teams, But could you have had a league Washington State,

751
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: Oregon State?

752
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 2: Stanford cal convinced.

753
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: The Arizonas to stay, maybe lure a Boise and then

754
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: taking SMU and somebody else maybe convinced BYU to stay.

755
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 3: And not that I'm unhappy that b why he's in

756
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 3: the Big twelve. I like that the whole thing could

757
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 3: have stayed together without UCLUSC they were gone, but the

758
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 3: whole thing could have stayed together. It was up to

759
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 3: Oregon and or literally at the last moment, Oregon was like,

760
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 3: you know what, guys, Big ten, that feels that feels

761
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 3: more stable. We're out of here. That's what That's what

762
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: they did.

763
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 2: Okay.

764
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: Xavier Hutchinson, we meant to him. He left the team

765
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: in receiving last night, had some really good catches.

766
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 2: Played hard, wants to make this team. They all do.

767
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 2: But he played with a fire last night. It was clear.

768
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 2: Let's get to him. As John Harris talked with him

769
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 2: after the game.

770
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 7: All right, guys, down here with our player of the game,

771
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 7: Exavier Hutchinson.

772
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 3: Coach always talks about ex playmakers got.

773
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 7: To step up and make plays no matter what practice,

774
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 7: preseason games, regular season games.

775
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 3: How'd you feel you stepped up into that tonight?

776
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 10: I feel like I really just did my job, to

777
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 10: be honest with you, I made plays when the opportunity

778
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 10: was there for myself. You know, I just had the

779
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 10: quarterbacks trust, you know, just throw me at the ball

780
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 10: and just really try to just allow me to do

781
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 10: my thing.

782
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 3: So, you know, Paul, and I was good. I'm really

783
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 3: happy with it.

784
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 10: You know, a guy to take every little opportunity seriously,

785
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 10: and I feel like I did that today. So you know,

786
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 10: that's always something that you could just be proud about.

787
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 5: And hang your head on.

788
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 3: You always talk about stacking days too. You've been out

789
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 3: there every single day, it feels like training camp. Every

790
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 3: day you're making you know, one percent better or more,

791
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 3: and then you put this on tape tonight. How important

792
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: is it that you stack all those good days in practice?

793
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 3: And then go put it on on film during a game. Yeah,

794
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 3: it's huge.

795
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 10: I feel like that's just like it just really gives

796
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 10: you another another set, another stack of just confidence in

797
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 10: what you're doing and that you know everything is actually

798
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 10: going in your favor and you know you're you're working

799
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 10: on the things that you want to work on to

800
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 10: get better, and then it's showing out on the field

801
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:28,760
Speaker 10: against another opponent.

802
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 3: So you know, it felt good to have that.

803
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 10: And really it's just now it's all about stacking upon

804
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 10: you know, this day now and just keep on going

805
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 10: and just keep on trying to get better and better.

806
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 3: How good was it to actually see a different jersey

807
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 3: as opposed to seeing the same guys with practice every day.

808
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 3: I was great.

809
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 10: You know, it's it's annoying going up against our defense.

810
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 10: You know, they take in the whole, you know, coach

811
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 10: ryans of a swarm mentality, So it gets pretty heated

812
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 10: out there at practice, but it's always all love and

813
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 10: it's just competition. But it definite only felt really good

814
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 10: to see another set of colors out there and to

815
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,320
Speaker 10: also just have your band of brothers on the sideline

816
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 10: room for you and you know, vice versa.

817
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 3: Me runs for them.

818
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 10: So just to have that it felt it felt amazing

819
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 10: to be back, you know, to get that little short

820
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 10: period of football back. It felt really good.

821
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 3: Okay, last one, real quick, new unis. What'd you think?

822
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 3: Do you like them?

823
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 4: Yeah?

824
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 5: Tough? I think they're amazing.

825
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 10: Honestly, I can't wait to see what type of color

826
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 10: combos are in the future.

827
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 3: But this one on blue.

828
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 10: Obviously it's the first one we wore, but this one,

829
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 10: it's gonna be.

830
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 5: Really hard to beat that.

831
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 6: For me.

832
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 3: Ex I appreciating grass Man, Thanks, thank you, I appreciate

833
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 3: appreciate that great. All right.

834
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: Did Sean Pendergas put out a poll about fan reaction

835
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: to the uniforms last night?

836
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 2: Did anybody do that?

837
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 3: I might. I might have missed it. Today. I didn't

838
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 3: see anything.

839
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: I thought they looked sweet. Oh my, And I said

840
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: this before the game. I thought I was gonna like

841
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 1: those Liberty whites an awful lot those road unis, And

842
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: they look good last night. So I guess they'll wear

843
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: them next week again at Pittsburgh. I'm shure they'll watch them.

844
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 2: Hey, they're on the road. How will they do laundry?

845
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: They figured this out, trust me, I.

846
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 3: Imagine there's some place in Cleveland they can do it.

847
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 3: They take it to the Donaman and the guys will

848
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 3: figure it out. We get a lot of quarters and

849
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 3: they just go to town on it.

850
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: Right. They get the soap out of the dispenser, they

851
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: have to put quarters into that too. I mean, remember

852
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: during Hurricane Harvey, we went to Dallas and our whole

853
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: crew went to do laundry at the laundromat.

854
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 2: That was a bonding experience.

855
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 3: I remember we didn't know how long we were going

856
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 3: to be there, and I remember taking my stuff. I

857
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 3: had to take a couple of things to the dry cleaner.

858
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so we're over playing Lifetime. We're a Lifetime

859
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 3: fitness trying to like kill time playing basketball. We get

860
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 3: the note we're leaving in ninety minutes. Yeah, and I'm like,

861
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 3: all right, we're playing everything out, and I'm like, I

862
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 3: got stuff at the dry cleaner in Dallas. In Dallas, Yeah,

863
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 3: So luckily I was with Robert Handsley, Robert Robert driving

864
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 3: the redit car we had up there, and so we

865
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 3: ended up dropping just getting the dry cleaner, getting the stuff,

866
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 3: and then driving home and obviously see what had happened

867
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: with Harvey. So yeah, we didn't. We didn't make it,

868
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: but I gotta do laundry tonight. I'm glad you reminded me.

869
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 3: Been here three days. I mean everything was wet from yesterday.

870
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right.

871
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: How about Demico's reaction to the defensive performance last night?

872
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: Some blown coverages, you get three touchdown passes.

873
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 3: I mean Brett Rippen was just firing away and.

874
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: That Colin Johnson Longhorn tall made plays back pedaling and

875
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 1: fairness to Troy Pride, who was there for two of them.

876
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 1: I think that's a tall receiver and that ball was

877
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: thrown up high, high, pointed well by the receiver. Really

878
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: hard to defend, but hey, this is the NFL. Guys

879
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: are gonna make plays like that. Your face is a

880
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: very tough competition. Not that he's going to be the

881
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: starting corner or anything, but he wants to make this

882
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: team too.

883
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 3: Would you make it that? Yeah, it was a tough

884
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 3: night for the defense. I think, you know, seeing Troy

885
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,240
Speaker 3: Pride not make a play. Mike Ford was in position

886
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 3: one time, like one on one battles. I mean, it

887
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 3: wasn't like they got completely housed. The six sixth receiver

888
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 3: made a playoff their head dunk Donovan's Yeah, that happens.

889
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 3: What bothered me was the same thing. I think that

890
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 3: bothered to Miko, And you kind of hear in his

891
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 3: voice like, yeah, you know, you want to see the

892
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 3: defensive backs make those plays, but you don't want to

893
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 3: see busts and coverage. You want to see that the

894
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 3: guys are in the right spot where they need to be.

895
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 3: And it's not like the Bears are doing anything tricky football.

896
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 3: They were running a tight end down the middle of

897
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 3: the seam on Tampa two basically, and somebody's got to

898
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 3: be able to make a play. I mean, that's that. No,

899
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 3: that's the vulnerability of that defense. But it shouldn't be.

900
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 3: It shouldn't be, but it was. I think that's what

901
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,720
Speaker 3: frustrated to Miko the most. And I have a feeling

902
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 3: that there will be this week in practice, there will

903
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 3: be some more unscripted periods. And I remember talking to

904
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 3: Jerry Patterson Jerry Patterson about that. He talked about those

905
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:52,799
Speaker 3: unscripted periods, and I was like, that's yeah, you need

906
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 3: more of that as you go through things need to

907
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 3: be scripted. The first few days in training camp, for sure,

908
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 3: but now you get into a game, situation. Obviously it's

909
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 3: all unscripted, and then you get into practice. This week,

910
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 3: i'd imagine they'll have a few more of those. But

911
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 3: I think what bothered me about it was it's not

912
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,439
Speaker 3: a complex coverage. You know. That's that's you know, first

913
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 3: grade stuff, that's first day install Like you installed that

914
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 3: the first day of OTA's and you don't go back

915
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 3: to it because you play it and you've done it

916
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 3: a lot. Yeah, It's not like you were playing his

917
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 3: complex coverage where you're like, well, you know, this guy

918
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 3: crossed and I gotta I do this if this guy

919
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 3: goes vertical, but if this guy turns at ten yards,

920
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 3: I do that. No, it was you're playing Tampa too,

921
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 3: And he got beat and like why So I think

922
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 3: he was frustrated with that because as soon as I

923
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 3: asked him, I knew I wanted to keep the focus offense.

924
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 3: But as soon as I said defense, you you said

925
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 3: it simon football Like he was very adamant about back

926
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 3: to that, very adamant about that. I wrote my hairs

927
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 3: hits and if you read them, you're like, John, this

928
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 3: is a lot of offensive slant. I'm like, yeah, because

929
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 3: the offense deserved it. I did mention one guy on

930
00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 3: defense and he was very impressed.

931
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: Let's talk about him next. Caln Bullock, the rookie from

932
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 1: USC also Ben Scronic, what do you have to say

933
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: about his performance and the team's performance after the game

934
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: against the Chicago Bears, who the Texans will see in

00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 1: six weeks in Week two, that's the home opener of

936
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:19,360

940
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 1: about it next here on Texans All Access.

941
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what.

942
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: That bumpback music is really loud in our ears, so

943
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: I'm just rocking out to it and the traveling Texans

944
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 1: rocking out outside here the Jersey at Jerseys, not the

945
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 1: Jerseys Sports bar in Canton, they have several of them here.

946
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: But we're right across the highway from the Hall of Fame,

947
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which is outstanding, and

948
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: we've got a ton of traveling Texans with us because

949
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: this is the meeting point. And they were giving each

950
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: other prizes and having fun, and I'd put out a

951
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: video at Texan's Voice on Twitter and on Instagram as well.

952
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 3: Fa He's here.

Speaker 2: She's impressive, she's impressive.

957
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 3: They probably took off. I don't know. Maybe there's I

00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,760
Speaker 3: don't know, maybe they're lingering outside.

959
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 2: A lot of people are just.

960
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 3: Well cant Cleveland I think is more home if I remember.

961
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's general, you know, region, it's the region.

962
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 3: It's like if you live down in Galveston and you

963
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 3: still playing in Houston, you know when you want to.

964
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, of course, conro Raater Houston area warce Ben's Garonic.

965
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 2: We talked about receivers. Where does he fit in?

966
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 4: Man?

967
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,719
Speaker 2: He can do a lot of different things. We call

968
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 2: him a Swiss Army knife I do.

969
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: But he can block, catch, play, h back if you

970
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: need him too, man tight end last night. We got

971
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: to talk about that in a moment here and we will.

972
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: But what about Ben's Garona Catching up with Drew Doherty

973
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 1: after last night's outing.

974
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 4: It's ironic wide receiver for Houston Texans. First time you

975
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 4: play a game for the Texans. What was it the

976
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 4: vibe like tonight?

977
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 3: For you?

978
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 11: I was good. You know, there's some stuff I got

979
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 11: to clean up, just get more comfortable in the system.

980
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 11: I thought it was good to be able to get

981
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 11: in and out of the huddle, you know, like kind

982
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 11: of feel the flow of the game. Obviously, first game here,

983
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,240
Speaker 11: so it's going to take a little bit to get comfortable.

984
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 11: But you know, I'm happy I was able to you know,

985
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 11: get a lot of burn on offense and kind of

986
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:20,839
Speaker 11: just you know, feel how it goes and feel how

987
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:22,719
Speaker 11: it's called. You know, it's different. You know, all thirty

988
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 11: one teams are different. The thirty one other teams are

989
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,399
Speaker 11: all different. So you know, it's just good to get

990
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 11: comfortable out there.

991
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, you kind of bring it up. We heard it

992
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 4: from Case Keenan. We heard it from Demico Ryan's after

993
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,320
Speaker 4: the game. There's gonna be some things that you do

994
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 4: well in a first game, but mainly it's about, hey,

995
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,320
Speaker 4: what do we do better here here? And there is

996
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 4: that something that you you saw tonight as far as

997
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 4: I can get better here, we can do this better here?

998
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 11: Yeah, definitely, you know obviously for me personally, like there's

999
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 11: a few players I want back. It's a preseason, but

1000
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 11: you know, I drive for perfection, so you know, not

1001
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 11: happy about that, but you know, obviously happy that. You know,

1002
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 11: hopefully I'll have another opportunity to go out there and

1003
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 11: do right next time. And you know, I feel like

1004
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 11: that's just football. You know, it's it's an imperfect game.

1005
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 11: But we strive to be perfect. So you know, just

1006
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,399
Speaker 11: getting in the film room, it'll be able to be good,

1007
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 11: to be able to you know, watch the film, you know,

1008
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 11: see what we've got to improve upon, and you know,

1009
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 11: just attack that the next week and then you know,

1010
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 11: on and on with the next few weeks of practice

1011
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,240
Speaker 11: leading into the regular season.

1012
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,240
Speaker 4: Benscaronic, wide receiver for Houston Texans.

1013
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 11: What you see from David Smills to night, I saw

1014
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,279
Speaker 11: efficiency in command. You know, I thought he did a

1015
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 11: really good job, you know, in and out of the huddle,

1016
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 11: you know, the line of scrimmage. You know, he's a pro.

1017
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 11: It's not his first rodeo doing it. You know, he

1018
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 11: started a lot of games in this league, so he

1019
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 11: had a good command. And I thought Case had a

1020
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 11: great command and tim. So with veteran quarterbacks usually we

1021
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,399
Speaker 11: all know what CJ can do. But you know, I thought,

1022
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,399
Speaker 11: you know, not just tonight, but throughout practice, I thought,

1023
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 11: you know, they've all done an excellent job of the

1024
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 11: command of the offense and really being good leaders out there.

1025
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, the depth of that position, also the depth at

1026
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 4: your positioned. Those two things, they're not as common as

1027
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 4: maybe what we're seeing here.

1028
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 11: Correct In my previous life in the NFL, you know,

1029
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 11: there wasn't you know, as many veterans, so you know,

1030
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 11: it's it's been great to be able to learn from

1031
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 11: different people and having guys like Robert who I actually

1032
00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:00,399
Speaker 11: played with, you know, Steph Noah, you know, older guys

1033
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 11: who have been in the league doing this thing for

1034
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 11: a long time. It's been great to be able to

1035
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 11: pick their brain and just hear them throughout the film sessions,

1036
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 11: you know, throughout practice and just you know, really watching them,

1037
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 11: but you know, also listening to them as well.

1038
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 4: It'scronic wide receiver for the Houston Texans last thing as

1039
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 4: a fellow wide receiver. How cool is it to see

1040
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 4: a guy like Andre Johnson get recognized, getting shrine in

1041
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:18,879
Speaker 4: the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I know you haven't

1042
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 4: been here along with the Texans but surely you appreciate.

1043
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 3: What he did and who he is, right, Yeah, you know,

1044
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 3: I think it's really cool.

1045
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 11: I forget who I was telling him, but like this

1046
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 11: generation of players are getting into the Hall of Fames,

1047
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 11: you know, the generation I grew up watching. So you know,

1048
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 11: Andre is a hell of a player. You know, I

1049
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 11: know we're on air, but he was a bad, bad,

1050
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 11: bad dude on the field, and you know, people got

1051
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 11: another word you wanted to use. Yeah, don't mess with him,

1052
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 11: you know, I just I love watching him growing up.

1053
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 11: You know, he was dominant out there. He deserves to

1054
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 11: be in the Hall of Fame, and I think it's

1055
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 11: so cool for him to be the first player, you know,

1056
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 11: from the Texans organization to make it, and you know

1057
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 11: that it's something that you know, there's only one first,

1058
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 11: so you know, I'm sure in the upcoming years a

1059
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 11: little bit more and more. But you know, we're all

1060
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 11: stoked for him, and.

1061
00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 3: I can't wait. Is it Friday?

1062
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 5: Sid Saturday?

1063
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, I can't wait. Plan on going and supporting him

1064
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 11: and just seeing the Hall of Fame I think will

1065
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 11: be the coolest thing.

1066
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 4: All right, Ben, thanks for the time, and we'll touch

1067
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 4: ag in real soon.

1068
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 11: Yeah, appreciate it.

1069
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 3: Thank you, Ben's Goronic.

1070
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: I am fired up for preseason game two a week

1071
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 1: from tonight at Pittsburgh.

1072
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 2: Just want to see more.

1073
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,800
Speaker 1: I want more, Johnny, and I want sixty minutes, not

1074
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: three thirty.

1075
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 3: Want to go on the third quarter.

1076
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: We call the game because of rain and by the way,

1077
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 1: it better not rain in Pittsburgh at home. I was

1078
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 1: gonna say, yeah, you're safe in the rain, but you

1079
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: know the roof issues, so we'll see about that. But

1080
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 1: you got noon kicks on August seventeenth and twenty fourth.

1081
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 3: Can't wait for that. Now.

1082
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: Vitriano goes out of the game after catching the touchdown

1083
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: pass on a later play and it was really unfortunately.

1084
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 1: He's battled injuries his whole short career. When he's out there,

1085
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 1: he's really productive. But he's got to be out there,

1086
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 1: so we don't know what's wrong.

1087
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,439
Speaker 2: But we'll see.

1088
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 3: Man.

1089
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,240
Speaker 1: They might have to sign another tight end now. Dalton

1090
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 1: Keen is on the roster. He's been out of practice

1091
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:58,919
Speaker 1: for a bit, but he's still here. So I would

1092
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:00,880
Speaker 1: hope that he gets healthy soon enough to play in

1093
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: the next preseason game.

1094
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 3: If not that one of the final two. If there

1095
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 3: was obviously the defense not playing up to snuff was.

1096
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 3: It was frustrating, but one that gets really frustrating. Last night,

1097
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,399
Speaker 3: Dalton Schultz and Brevin Jordan don't play, so you're going

1098
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 3: with Stover with Toriano and Keen was also injured, so

1099
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 3: you're only forty percent of your tight ends and then

1100
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 3: Contriano goes out in the first quarter. Yeah, after scoring

1101
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 3: a touchdown, you're like, man, we're down to We're down

1102
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 3: to Kate, and Kate took a shot at one point

1103
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 3: it was a little slower getting up. He did because

1104
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 3: he's tough as nails, but like, man, now this becomes

1105
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 3: really frustrating.

1106
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 2: So we'll see.

1107
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 3: There have been some reports about, you know, a potential

1108
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 3: knee injury with with Tigan and what can you do.

1109
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 3: You gotta hope that dog Keen can get back, and

1110
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 3: you hope the other guys can stay healthy. But you

1111
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 3: else might be in the market for like last year,

1112
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 3: Eric Salbert or somebody of that caliber to bring in

1113
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,279
Speaker 3: and compete. The rest of training camp, never know what

1114
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 3: they do.

1115
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,879
Speaker 1: Nick Cassario is always working the phones and we'll work

1116
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: on Monday at six and let you know what happens

1117
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 1: at practice. At Nick Cassario's High School because that's where

1118
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,240
