We went back and forth. 54 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: There were fourth down stops. There were three CJ. Stroud 55 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: interceptions in this game. One of them went through the 56 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: hands of a receiver, but two others were picks by 57 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: the defense. For sure, Texans defense had to fight for 58 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 1: the win. 59 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: It came down to a fourth. 60 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: Down in Houston territory with time running out. Would the 61 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 1: Texans be able to hang on and preserve the win? 62 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: Fourth and eight at the Houston twenty seven Murray and 63 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: the gun. Murray throwing downfield to his left hand, inculd 64 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: play knock the way Steven Nelson and the Texans takeover 65 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: on downs twenty one sixteen. 66 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: They have the ball with thirty seconds to go. 67 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: More important, all right, and more importantly, only one time 68 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: out for Arizona there as they just did not call 69 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: timeout why bother? Because the Texans could kill the clock 70 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: and they did. One knee did it? Houston Victoria twenty 71 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: one sixteen over Arizona. Meanwhile, the Jacksonville Jaguars were winners 72 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: today over the Tennessee Titans, and they up their record 73 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: to seven and three. But one of the three losses 74 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: is to the Texans. So if the Texans can get 75 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: the Jags next week here at NRG Stadium, they will 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: take over first place in the AFC South. With a 77 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: long way to go, but it would be nice. A 78 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: reliant power player of the game.

Well, Dre the Jags, We've 143 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 2: seen them before. 144 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: Texans were blowout winners in North Florida and ETN. 145 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 2: He's been doing well lately. 146 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: Fourteen carries fifty two yards today in a twenty point 147 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: winner of the Titans. 148 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 2: And it wasn't that close. Trevor Lawrence two tds today. 149 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: Ridley had another big day And what do you make 150 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: of this one? Because the Jags are clearly a better team. 151 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: They've won six of seven since Week three blowout loss 152 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: at the hands of San Francisco. 153 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 2: Everybody else, they've taken care of their business. 154 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's a tough, scrappy football team that 155 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 5: has weapons and a pretty good quarterback in Trevor Lawrence, 156 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 5: so a defense that can make some plays and make noise. 157 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 5: It's why they lead the division. I mean, they are 158 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 5: in first place for a reason. It's a good football team. 159 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 5: They're coming here and we need to figure out a 160 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 5: way to take care of them in this building next weekend. 161 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, when you look at what Connor did today to 162 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: the Texans, it wasn't much. It was sixty two yards 163 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: but four and a half per carry. Murray had his 164 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: moments throwing for two fourteen, and you know the Jags can. 165 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: Get that kind of thing going. You're gonna have to 166 00:07:58,760 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: be at your best defensively. 167 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 5: Obviously the leading A division, they have more talent than Arizona, 168 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 5: and so it's it's going to be more to dissect 169 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 5: when you start to prepare for that game because he 170 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 5: can spread it around so many different places. Etn is 171 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 5: is a He is a tough matchup in and of itself. 172 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 5: So that'll be uh, that'll be tough in the running 173 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 5: game to try to slow him down. 174 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: And then the receivers as well. Ridley's coming on through. 175 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 2: Doherty and John Harris have this thing. 176 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: What if I told you, What if I told you 177 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: in training camp that the final weekend of November the 178 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 1: Texans and Jags would be. 179 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Playing for first place division. 180 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 5: I'd take it right then, right then and there. I 181 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 5: don't care what the record is either. 182 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: I might have been mildly surprised at the time, but 183 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: I guess nothing should surprise us now. With the Texans 184 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: victorious today over the Cardinals, winners of three in a row. 185 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: Stroud throws for another three hundred plus does throw the 186 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: three picks today, but he has two touchdown passes, including 187 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: a bomb to Tank Dell, who had one hundred and 188 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: forty nine receiving yards on eight catches. 189 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: And how special is he. 190 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 1: Nico comes back seven for sixty five, woods five for 191 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: forty four. They spread the ball around again and get 192 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: a lot of yardists through the air. 193 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's he's throwing the multiple receivers. It's 194 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 5: fun to see. We talked about that a little bit 195 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 5: in the pregame, where you don't know where it's coming from. 196 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 5: If you don't have a clear number one or number two, 197 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 5: then it's just running the offense and whatever the Reids produce. 198 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 5: And you don't have a guy that's crying and screaming 199 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 5: to the media he's not getting enough touches and you know, 200 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 5: just being a diva. I think it's great right now 201 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 5: how things are are transpiring on the offense with that group, 202 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 5: that room, and it keeps everybody hungry because at any point, 203 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 5: you know, the CJ could come to you. That's the 204 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 5: best way to operate, rather than a clear number one 205 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 5: receiver that's you know, this Pro Bowl player that you 206 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 5: have to get the football too all the time. 207 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: Well, it was fun to watch. 208 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: It was another who finish that had us at the 209 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: edge of our seats. But the Texans once again prevailed 210 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: three wins in a row, all very close games. They'll 211 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: take it six and four record with the Jaguars next week. 212 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: Once again, the final score the Houston Texans twenty one, 213 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals sixteen. 214 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 2: This is Texans Radio.
