1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: Here's the snap's looking tux the ball dive into the

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 1: pilot that he's got it, Razzle dazzle, touchdown, the Houstons

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: and the Texans go in front. Game day. He's every day.

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: We had a lot of energy and we brought a

5
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week,

6
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: they hits, keep on coming, falls out. The Texans say

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 1: they have it and they do. No. It's Texans All

8
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: Excess presented by First Community Credit Union. Oh yes, it

9
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 1: is Mark Vandamarin. John Harris with you. John McClain should

10
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: be with us tonight as well. Welcome to Texans All

11
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 1: Access everyone. It's a wonderful time to have you with

12
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: us as we look forward to a week in a

13
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: professional football during the pandemic, and Johnny, we start there

14
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: because somehow, some way the league is pulling this off.

15
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: But you know, the positives which were really slow to

16
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: get going early and that was a very good thing,

17
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: they're starting to pick up a little steam here. You know,

18
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: early on like week four, week five, you knew which

19
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: teams had the problems. You know, Tennessee was one of them.

20
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: You just knew. Now it's like way too many even

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: to even remember, like who's closed their facility. I don't know.

22
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: It seems like everybody's had to do it at least once,

23
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: and like some teams hit worse than others. The Texans

24
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: placed three players on the COVID nineteen list, Dylan Cole,

25
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: Jacob Martin, Whitney Merciless. So they've got to sit out

26
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: a few days, including this weekend's game at Jacksonville. And

27
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: just like injuries sometimes, dude, during training camp, you know,

28
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: we talk about this when they hit a certain position. Group.

29
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: Linebacker appears to be COVID friendly right now with Whitney,

30
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: Jacob Martin, and Dylan Cole. And they're different kinds of linebackers,

31
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: but all in the COVID world here, Johnny as the

32
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: Texans have to pull it together somehow against the Jags

33
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Yeah, there's no question. Look the Texans my

34
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: all thirty one of their teams, they've they've got to

35
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: pull together. I mean, look, we we look at Tennessee.

36
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: Tennessee to play on Tuesday, then play on a Sunday,

37
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: and they won both of those games. They didn't even

38
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 1: practice for two weeks. Look, the depth outside linebackers stretched

39
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: in when you're without two guys, but it forces you

40
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: the Texans it is to play guy like John Grenard

41
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: and see what you got. I mean, that's something that

42
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: you and I have talked about Mark about the second

43
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 1: half of the season. We want to see some of

44
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 1: these rookies and young guys get a chance to play

45
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: or prove they can't play. Well. John Grenard's gonna have

46
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: an opportunity to do that because an outside linebacker. Now

47
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,119
Speaker 1: what do you got? You got Scarlett and you've got Grenard?

48
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: Am I missing anybody? I think? That's so let me

49
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: ask you this. Can you go a little more for

50
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: three looks? Sure? And yes we get a little and

51
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: I know they do that anyway from time to time,

52
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: but could we possibly see something like that? Now? They

53
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: couldn't practice today, but they could probably go over some

54
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: schematics and then you can practice tomorrow and Saturday a

55
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: walk through. Maybe that's enough to get you ready to

56
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: try to out that Jack's ground game. Well, you got

57
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: the ultimate game changer in JJ, So you can line

58
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: up JJ wherever you'd like. Really, Um, if it's a if,

59
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: hey look first and ten put him outside like you said,

60
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: if you want to, if you want to play you know,

61
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: more of a four to three. You know, the thing

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: about it is, if you're playing four three, you probably

63
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: want Dylan Colts your third linebacker out there. But if

64
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: you play let's just say you play Nickel and you

65
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: line up with four upfront, two linebackers and then five dbs.

66
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: You can always put Jjny edge, JJN one edge, Scarlett

67
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: and the other. Or you can put JJN one edge,

68
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: you put Grennard on the other. I mean there are

69
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: things you can do because you have a guy like

70
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: JJ Watt. There's no no question about that. So yes,

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: you absolutely can do that. And here's here's what I

72
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: like about it. Mark It just I asked this question

73
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: of a few coaches you know that have to deal

74
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: with adversity like you don't love it, right, You don't

75
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: love the fact that, oh man, I'm without these three

76
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: main guys, what am I gonna do? But on the

77
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: flip side, you love as a coach trying to find

78
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: a different way to win a game. Sure, and this

79
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: is the ultimate trying a different way to try to

80
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: win a game. When you're you're dealing with this spike,

81
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: you're without two outside linebackers, dealing Coln inside linebacker. So

82
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: how do you go about doing it? This is probably

83
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: and this is one of those times you maybe miss

84
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 1: Bernardick McKinney because, hey, you want to stop James Robinson,

85
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,679
Speaker 1: but be you always could put an Arjec outside too.

86
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: You know, that was one place he could always play

87
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: if you needed him to. So that's where you know

88
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: Bernardric had such versatility, was he could go out there

89
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: as well. So I just I think there's an opportunity

90
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: here for these defensive coaches to say, rally up and

91
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: go all right, guys, here's what we got. It's like

92
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: it's like the Food Network show Chopped. You open the

93
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,559
Speaker 1: basket and you go, all right, what do we got? Okay,

94
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: we got just oh we only have two outside linebackers. Okay,

95
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 1: but we got a bunch of interior lineman. Oh look

96
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: at this I pulled out. This is a big old

97
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: ninety nine. I can use this everywhere. You know what

98
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: I mean. If you've seen the show Chopped, you know

99
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about. But the ingredients are probably

100
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: really Johnny, you know what do I have? I'm hunting

101
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: and gathering right, No, I got, I got what you're saying,

102
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: and I agree with you on the coaches thing, because coaches, yeah,

103
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: no one's gonna volunteer for that, but they don't have

104
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: time to sulky. They love the challenge of doing what

105
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: they do. It's kind of like it reminds me of

106
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: Week two in twenty seventeen when he had no tight ends. Yeah,

107
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: Watson was making his first start and the coaches were

108
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: very happy with their performance that night. They won the game.

109
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: They didn't score a lot of points, but they found

110
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: a way to get a victory. And we're gonna find

111
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: a way to get John McLean in here from the

112
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: Houston Chronicle. In general, your thoughts as we have these

113
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: three players on the reserve COVID nineteen list, Texans have

114
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: to deal with a little bit of an adverse situation

115
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: going into Jacksonville on Sunday. Welcome, No big deal anybody

116
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: that worries about losing three guys. Dylan Cole hadn't played

117
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: on defense. He's a special teams player. Jacob Martin is

118
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: two sacks. He never plays more than thirty percent. Since

119
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville game, he hadn't played more than thirty four

120
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: percent of the snaps. Whitney's only one Whitney hadn't played

121
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: more than sixty three percent of the snap since Jacksonville.

122
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: And even though he and Martin had sacks and Whitney

123
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: had a Forest Fumbler recovery, I can't remember. They're playing

124
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: against a rookie quarterback taking his first snap, a sixth

125
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: round pick. Anybody worried about that if they if they

126
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: don't win, then they all ought to be put on

127
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: the unemployment line. And they've started four linement the last

128
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: two games. They'll start four linement again most of the time.

129
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: They're playing five and six dbs, and so I don't

130
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: see it as being an issue at all. It's not

131
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: like the defense has been very good. They're what thirty

132
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: first against the run. They get the worst passer rating

133
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and so I expected him to win

134
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 1: this game handily. To say the least. Jacksonville's as a

135
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: sixth game losing streak, they're tanking. They won't say that

136
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: starting a sixth round pick who hadn't taken a snap

137
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: over an eightyear veteran in Mike Glennon. So this is

138
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: the Texans got to play without starters on defense. This

139
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: is the game to do it. Now. The next one.

140
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: You hope everybody clears and everybody's back because when they

141
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: go to Cleveland, they might get the good Baker when

142
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: you're hoping for the bad baker, John Landry, would Landry

143
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: Locker just said that you hike your leg on the

144
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: theory that the Texans won't be in trouble, It would

145
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: Landry say that? Is that what you just did? Gets?

146
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: He just shot that theory down where with what? Yeah? Yeah,

147
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: that's right, Um, John, don't know what. I don't know.

148
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: I didn't understand that one, okay, John. The Texans this

149
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: week faced Jake Luton. He's a rookie quarterback. He's got skills,

150
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: he's got a big arm. The last time they faced

151
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: the rookie was Drew lock and he had a big

152
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: arm and he gave him some issue with that. I

153
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: you just said the Texans should go take on the

154
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: Jaguars and should handle them. But this is a quarterback

155
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: that does have some skills and he's got a big arm.

156
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: Is there any worry on your side that the Texans

157
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: will have some trouble with a rookie quarterback like this, Well,

158
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: considering they've had trouble with every quarterback and going Gardner

159
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: Minshew three for three hundred one yards, two touchdowns and

160
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: no interceptions, Then yeah they could. And but the Murderer's

161
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: row of quarterbacks is done with. And the quarterbacks they

162
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: play from now on, including Rivers twice Mayfield, maybe Tannehill

163
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: for the last game, means something for the Titans. But

164
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 1: the way I look at it is if they can

165
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: go to Tennessee and lose forty two thirty six and overtime,

166
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: they can beat the Titans. Here the Texans are in

167
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: a situation where they play four games that are all

168
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: winnable in the next month, and the key is to

169
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: beat the Jaguars to look good doing it. The only

170
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: thing they've done well is throw the football, you know,

171
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: the number thirty two and rushing and I you know,

172
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: the best game David Johnson had running the all was

173
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars, so maybe he'll be able to do

174
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: it again. Jaguars can't rush the quarterbacks. I look for

175
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: Watson to have a fifth consecutive three hundred yard game

176
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: and a sixth consecutive game with triple digit ratings and

177
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: they win this game, and as far as Luton, he'll

178
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: probably run quite a bit. He's not a great runner.

179
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: He ran in the fives at the Combine, but based

180
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: on what he did at Oregon State, he would run

181
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: when he had to, And like most rookies, I expect

182
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: he'll be running and it wouldn't surprise me at all

183
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: than on Brandon Mike Glennon. But the key is, you

184
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: know they're trying. They're trying to get into the Trevor

185
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: Lawrence sweepstakes that the Jets are probably going to own.

186
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: But then if if your second prize is justin fields

187
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: and that's that's not too shabby. But the fact is

188
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: by starting Jack Luton, you know they're trying to They're

189
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: thinking about being as bad as they can be and

190
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: trying to rebuild with a great quarterback, which would be

191
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: bad news for the Texas. John McLean joining us how

192
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: Texans all access? John? When you look at the lack

193
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: of a running game and you mentioned how well the

194
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: Texans throw the football and Watson number one of the

195
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: league and yards per attempt and everything like that, they

196
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: have to do better in the first half. What's it

197
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: gonna take. They're being outscored one twenty to sixty four

198
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: the first halves of games so far, and that Pittsburgh

199
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: game kind of skews the total a little bit because

200
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: they had twenty one in that game in the first half.

201
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: So what is it gonna take to be better? Can

202
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: I know they can't go wholesale change here, but they

203
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: can certainly tweak do something. What can be done in

204
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: order to get off to a better start. First of all,

205
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: I would not run David Johnson on first day, and

206
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: he's averaging three point two yards on first Dawf. Everything

207
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: he runs is between the tackles. I was watching other

208
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: running games over the weekend, pitching the ball, the backs,

209
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: going outside, running sweeps, just letting the guys make one

210
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: cut and go, which seems that would be his best system.

211
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: Whatever Tim Kelly's doing, this goes back to two thousand eighteen.

212
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: Whatever you do and do something else, tear it up,

213
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: start over. I'll tell you what I would do. What

214
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: do you have to hang your hat on your passing game?

215
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: I know you. I can't throw the ball on every down.

216
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,719
Speaker 1: I remember when the Oilers played so well with the

217
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: running shoot. Everybody expected him to throw on every down,

218
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: and they were so good running draw plays because the

219
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: defense was always trying to rush the passer. But in

220
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: this case, in the first first series, in the first quarter,

221
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: and I'm not kidding. Let Watson throw the ball, don't

222
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: run the ball at all. Unless it's Watson, it can't

223
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 1: be any worse. And he is the strength along with

224
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: their receivers, their number two in the NFL with thirty

225
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: pass plays of twenty or more yards. They loaded at

226
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: wide receiver, tight end Jordan Naked's back. The Johnson's can

227
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: catch the ball. Utilize your passing game. And then when

228
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: you and I'm talking about in the first quarter, don't

229
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: don't run the ball one time and see if it's

230
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: any worse. It can't be any worse with Watson, win

231
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 1: or lose with Watson. Let him throw or run. Don't

232
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 1: let him run an option pitch down by the goal line.

233
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: Let him roll out and him make the decision on

234
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: running or throwing. And that is the best chance I

235
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 1: believe to start better because nothing else's work. John If

236
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: they don't run in the first quarter, I will buy

237
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: you a steak dinner with all the fiction. Well, I

238
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: don't think for ten weeks straight. I'll do that because

239
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: you go as well as I do. The very first

240
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: play out of the box, He's gonna be inside zone

241
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: to David Johnson, you know it. No, yeah, you guys,

242
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: first down on Sunday is a pass first first play

243
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: the game. Yeah, I agree, I'll go pass. I'll go pass.

244
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: They are day when Watson throws on first down, They're

245
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: so much better than they are when they run the ball.

246
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: Play a little play action, make them think about it,

247
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: but they have to use the pass to set up

248
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: the run. And I got nothing against David Johnson and

249
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: a half of his interior line. You know, watching the

250
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 1: game going back, he gets hit in the backfield so much.

251
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 1: They get beaten up front. And you know this this

252
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: defense and offense or getting man hand along the line

253
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: of both on the line, the line of scrimmage on

254
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, and that includes the linebackers

255
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: of course on defense. So they're gonna have to score

256
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: a lot of points, and I believe they will because

257
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: right now the Texans passing game is working really well.

258
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: So go with the hot hand. The hot hand is

259
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,599
Speaker 1: just Shaun Watson. John Let's talk about the idea of

260
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 1: the possibility, and I don't think it's going to happen,

261
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: but of expanding the playoffs to eight teams, per conference.

262
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: And this was I guess theoretically, or maybe technically, if

263
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: they would have to miss any games and maybe go

264
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: by winning percentage to get the top eight teams in

265
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,959
Speaker 1: per conference. But you and I are old enough to

266
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: remember in nineteen eighty two, and I thought it was

267
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: kind of fun that year because you had the big

268
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: long strike break, you had only nine games in the

269
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: regular season, and you had this sixteen team tournament for

270
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, and Washington wanted beating Miami the famous

271
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 1: Riggins fourth and one. That was kind of a fun

272
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: conclusion to the season. And I think this year you

273
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: could have a lot of fireworks in the postseason with

274
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: eight teams per conference. Let's do it. First of all,

275
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have floated it if they weren't going to

276
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: do it. And because the owners would make more money,

277
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: they'd make up some of the money they're not making

278
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: a regular season. Usually players don't get paid much in

279
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs, but I think the union can negotiate a

280
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: percentage of that. And I was in my six year

281
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: of covering the NFL that season, and because it was

282
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: so ugly because of the strike and they played nine games,

283
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: people were really excited about seeing more football. Only two

284
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: teams out of the sixteen the team made the playoffs

285
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: with losing records. They were both eliminated in the first

286
00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: round decisively. The Raiders had the best racer in AFC Washington.

287
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: In the NFC, the Raiders were upset before they got

288
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: to the championship game, and so they ended up Miami,

289
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: I think beat the Jets of the championship game. Washington

290
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: I remember eliminated the Cowboys, and then the Redskins, who

291
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: had cheated and practice still illegally during strike on their

292
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: first Super Bowl. I told Charlie Cashley one time, I said,

293
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: as it Field had two teamed ranks, and of course

294
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: he always denied it, but everybody knew because they got

295
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: out The Redskins were practicing in eighty two and eighty seven,

296
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: but I'm sure other teams were. Mark Berman and I

297
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: used to go out to Missouri City and watch the

298
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: Oilers have They didn't have coaches like the Redskins. They

299
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: had players trying to decide it to get out there

300
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: and throw the ball and run plays and head beer,

301
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: and it was like it was like some big family reunion.

302
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: And they were terrible that year. And but the playoffs

303
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: works sighting, so I think they're going to do it again.

304
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: They're going to do anything they can to bring in

305
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: more income, and who could blame them for trying And

306
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody. It's not like they're going to

307
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: do it every time because it was such a big

308
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: hit with baseball to increase that playoff field go to

309
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: two out of three wild cards to the one and done,

310
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: which I think now they will always keep. They had,

311
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: you know, the Universal DH, they had the wild thing

312
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: and the ex trainings starting to go on second A

313
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: lot of that stuff turned out to be good. So

314
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't see them seating because the coaches are just

315
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: adamant the winning divisions should count something. And I'll guarantee

316
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: you no team wants to go to Philadelphia in January

317
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: try to beat the Eagles. It wouldn't surprise me at

318
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: all if the Eagles don't win a playoff game and

319
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: be at least for one day a peast from the East.

320
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: I think that the division winners, This argument is so

321
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: easy to settle. You don't get to play at home necessarily,

322
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: but you certainly get a spot. If your division's weak,

323
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: you win it. The coaches go ballistic. The coaches want

324
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: winning the division to mean something, and that's hosting the

325
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: playoff game. Remember when the Seahawks were seven and nine

326
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: and they were underdogs at home against the Saints and

327
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: they beat the Saints in in the first round. So

328
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: that division winner is always going to host the playoffs.

329
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: I want to see. The Niners were four and five

330
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: that year, by the way, and I'm gonna look it

331
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: up right now. I don't think that's right. I think

332
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: it was two other teams that made it with losing records.

333
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: Follow up was terrible to the Super Bowl, so it

334
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: was they were off. Well, yeah, they were losers and

335
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: they didn't make the playoffs. Even they weren't the two teams. No,

336
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: there were two other teams that made it, and I

337
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: can't remember who it was, but it wasn't the Niners. John,

338
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: What would push the owners to go to eight games?

339
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:55,959
Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds like they want it. I mean,

340
00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 1: is there something obviously after negotiate with the NFLPA, But

341
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 1: do you think the NFLPA would have an issue with

342
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: it going to eight teams? What do you think would

343
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: be the trigger mechanism to put eight teams in the playoffs? Television.

344
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: Television is the trigger mechanism for everything. If they want

345
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: it and they're willing to show out the big bucks,

346
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: both sides will do it. ESPN's deal is up after

347
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: next season. Everybody else is up after two twenty two.

348
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: They're already starting negotiations. Besides streaming rights. They want Amazon,

349
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: in Yahoo and everybody to get in competition for the

350
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 1: streaming rights. Then they got direct TV. If ABC comes

351
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: back into it to give Monday night football like they

352
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 1: did for so long before they turned it over to ESPN.

353
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: There's no telling what the next TV deal is going

354
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: to be like, and it doesn't matter what happens this

355
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 1: season because all the networks know the NFL's full proof.

356
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 1: It's always full proof, and so they're going to Teams

357
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: are not losing money this year. They're just not making

358
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 1: as much money and they will make it up when

359
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: that new TV deal goes into effect. Okay, nineteen eighty

360
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: two postseason, New England was five and four. There's two

361
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: teams with losing records. Yeah, but I gotta match it

362
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: up because they don't have the records here in the bracket.

363
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 1: They have a bracket. It's so awesome. This would be

364
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: great for the fans to have just a one off.

365
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: We don't have to do this every year, just this year,

366
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: Like you said, like Baseball did, Were you okay with

367
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: that runnerund second in ext ratings by the way, you

368
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: know first, but as somebody who gets tired of watching

369
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 1: pitchers coming in and out, in and out, and I

370
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 1: liked it. I didn't it first, but I adjusted to

371
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: it now. The Astros, I think we're the worst team

372
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 1: in the league and bringing in a guy from second base.

373
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: They lost so many extra inning games because they couldn't

374
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: get the guy with the third base and getting home.

375
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: But you know, there's a lot of those things they

376
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: did that the owners are trying to get to union

377
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: to do now, and they're talking about the Universal Dahs.

378
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:02,479
Speaker 1: They're talking about expanding player offs. That's a possibility as well,

379
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: and I think if TV offers enough money, we're gonna

380
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: have that playoff field. People ought to be fired up

381
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 1: about it. You know. It's not like it's not gonna

382
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: be like the NBA and NHL. It's just gonna be.

383
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: It's a one time thing. And I don't know how

384
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: anybody could harbor any bad feelings considering the financial hit

385
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: everybody's taken and if he games get canceled, like say,

386
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: the Texans and Jaguars couldn't play because they don't have

387
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: and they don't have bye weeks. Players don't get paid.

388
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: So that's why you got sixteen player practice squads. That's

389
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: why there was not more trades. Why would you want

390
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 1: to trade for players when you got guys on your

391
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: practice squad or veterans and it'd been there since offseason.

392
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: So I think this season, because of the coronavirus, almost

393
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: anything goes and people just have to be flexible and

394
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: a playoff field. And I remember how it wasn't eighty two.

395
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: It was exciting. It wasn't by the way I feel

396
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: the way of the runner on second and X ratings

397
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: of the baseball player else. I feel the same way

398
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: about that as I do for college football overtime format,

399
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: which is I find it very exciting except when my

400
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: team is in it, right, that's great. When other teams

401
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: are playing, I'm like, yeah, bring it on, But if

402
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: my team's in it, I hate both of those formats anyway,

403
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: go ahead, Johnny, Yeah, I mean I hate the runner

404
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: on second. I just I'm sorry. If there's one thing

405
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: that I'm completely old school about it is that I

406
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: don't know why that one like universal DH, I've wanted

407
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 1: that forever. I just I never want to watch pitchers hit.

408
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: Makes no sense along those lines, John, One of the

409
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: things that the NFL did this year, and you just

410
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 1: mentioned it, it's a practice squad. They increase the practice

411
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: squad number and they allowed teams to have veterans on

412
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 1: the practice squad. To me, that feels like it's worked

413
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: really well. Do you think that's something that they could

414
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: potentially keep going forward? I do. I think the union

415
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: would want it because more players get paid. I think

416
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,159
Speaker 1: it's great, and some veterans like Dez Bryant agreed to

417
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: do it. I thought it was too bad Eric Reid

418
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it when Washington tried to sign him to

419
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 1: their practice squad, And so I think it's good anything

420
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: that gives players more jobs and a chance to make money.

421
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 1: The union should work hard to include that in anything

422
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 1: that has to be negotiated with the owners. It's like

423
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: we're going back to baseball, that three batter rule. The

424
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: worst thing that's happened in Major League Baseball is managers

425
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 1: running pitchers in and out, and I loved having that

426
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: three batter rules, so we wouldn't have to see three

427
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: consecutive pitchers, except of course, the end of the inning.

428
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: Then they didn't have to stay in but changes, you know.

429
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,880
Speaker 1: And I don't like the guy at second either, But man,

430
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't like fifteen and sixteen inning game, especially at

431
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,919
Speaker 1: night when I'm falling asleep. John Josh McCown. This is

432
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: interesting to me because if we took the DeLorean back

433
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: to two thousand and two, and I said they drafted

434
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: David Carr, but there's another quarterback from this class that

435
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 1: will be with the team in twenty twenty, and that's

436
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: Josh McCown, who was drafted in the same class as

437
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 1: David Carr and Joey Harrington and Julius Peppers. And here

438
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: he iss a Houston Texan in twenty twenty. Is just amazing.

439
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 1: It's a great move because Josh McCown is one smart soob.

440
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 1: He's been with twelve teams now. He was one of the

441
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: the jobs and the ESPN analysts after last season that

442
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: Philadelphia offered him a chance to be an assistant coach.

443
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 1: He said he still wanted to play. They let him

444
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: be on their practice squad, and live at home. You know,

445
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: he's a graduate of Sam Houston, third round pick, play

446
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: three years at SMU. He's like an extra coach and

447
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: he's always in great shape. He's a very respected and

448
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: popular guy. In signing him, Jackie Easterby should get a

449
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: lot of credit for making that move. And obviously he

450
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: didn't do it if the coaches hadn't wanted to do it.

451
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: And they did want to do it, and you see

452
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 1: you with Whitney, Merciless and Jacob Martin and Dill and

453
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: Call and they could have more guys test positive to

454
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: be out of this game. They're not out of the

455
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: woods yet. They tested today, they test tomorrow. But you

456
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 1: see how that can happen. An effect it might have

457
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: on your defense, like say they were playing the Titans

458
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 1: instead of the Jaguars of the Colts, then it would

459
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,959
Speaker 1: be a huge losses. But heaven McCown is a quarterback.

460
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: Just as a precaution for COVID nineteen from a Karen

461
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: or Watson, I think was a terrific move. Even if

462
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: he never steps on the field, having him in the

463
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: meeting room and on the practice field I think is terrific.

464
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: All right, John, what do you have going out of

465
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: the Houston Chronicle. I wrote tomorrow Aaron Wilson's got a

466
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: story or a news story on the fallout of the

467
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen situation. I wrote about the strategy and how

468
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: it could affect them against the Jaguars and beyond. And

469
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,280

522
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: the late news following the games on ABC thirteen, Johnny,

523
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: did you see the picture I tweeted out of Jacksonville

524
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: of their stadium during simple Times. I retweeted it. I

525
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: don't know if I I didn't, I don't know if

526
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: I looked at the picture per se. Well, it was

527
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: the pool. It was a pooling. Oh yeah, yeah, that's right,

528
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: that's right. You know the pool was full of people. Yeah,

529
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: I don't think that'll be yeah, nah, that's not actually

530
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: you know, but you couldn't you socially distanced and have

531
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 1: like two people per pool and do it that way.

532
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:24,239
Speaker 1: I probably right now, probably like twenty five or thirty. Oh,

533
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 1: in that picture, it's just packed. It's you know what

534
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 1: I was thinking about. Actually, run about this a little bit.

535
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 1: You remember our last trip to Jacksonville. It was two

536
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: years ago. It was Watson time. It was the bus. Yeah,

537
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: it was Watson the bus. But here's the other one.

538
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: What also happened that day. This isn't one people forget

539
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: about it because we oh, it's the Watson bus game.

540
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: It was Andre Howe's return from cancer. Oh that's right.

541
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: You know what. It was too bad because they kind

542
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: of overshadowed he got out of shadow about the Watson

543
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: bus story. But we still covered it very well. Yeah,

544
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: it was just it just didn't get all the attention

545
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: because Watson, you know, taking the bus was unbelievable. Yeah.

546
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 1: So well, I actually I did replay last night and

547
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 1: I was thinking, okay, what was the last times? Oh,

548
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: that's the Watson bus game. And then as I went

549
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: to go look up h the you know, get the

550
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: soundbites from the FTP, I was on there and I went, oh, yeah,

551
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: that was Andre How. And also there was also kind

552
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: of a monumental thing that happened to him that week.

553
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 1: He's coming back from cancer, but his dad also passed away,

554
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: and he said when he retired, that was kind of

555
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: the moment he knew that he was ready to, you know,

556
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: step away from football because he played football for you know,

557
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: for his dad. He wanted his dad to be proud

558
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: of him. And he said, when his dad passed, he

559
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: just lost the uh he lost you know, kind of

560
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: desire to play. And that all happened that week. Watson

561
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: the bus, dre How returning from cancer, Drey losing his dad,

562
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: all all in that week leading up to that Jacksonville game.

563
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 1: And that was a big game. Both teams were three

564
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: and three, looking you know, whoever went one was going

565
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 1: to get to the top of the AFC South and

566
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: we just housed them, I mean just housed them. And

567
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: from that point forward it has been downhill for Jacksonville.

568
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: Well what a year that was. Mister McNair passes away

569
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: that year, Uh, Andre Were's mom passed away, which was

570
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: just you know, obviously so monumental for him. Yeah, and um,

571
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: and I remember our booth was just you know, we

572
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: were a lot of stuff was going on and then

573
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: booth and a lot of stuff was going on with

574
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: the team, and it was just it was quite a year.

575
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: They won eleven games. Uh the um you know, I

576
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: tweeted that pool pick though, because I just thought, damn,

577
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: we gotta get done with this pandemic somehow, because you know,

578
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: not that I you know, raved about the Jacksonville atmosphere

579
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: so much. In fact, I've made comments because one pool

580
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: has a lot of kids and one pool has like

581
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: bikini babes and um and the pool with the kids.

582
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: I said on the air once that water looks a

583
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: lot murky murkier. I don't know what it is, but

584
00:30:54,880 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: it's definitely a few years ago. And I was it was, yeah,

585
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: and it was noticeable like through my binoculars as I waited.

586
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: It was with that water where the kids are swimming.

587
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: But anyway, here we are, and the injury report today

588
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: reads that Cam Robinson shows up with a knee and

589
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: you know, when you see the name italicized and bold,

590
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: that means he's either changed designations or he's making an

591
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: appearance for the first time this week and it is

592
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: so that means he suffered some sort of knee issue.

593
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: In practice, I don't know what it is, and it's

594
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: not a good thing for him. In fact, it's a

595
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: d n PASA did not participate for him, so I

596
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: don't know when this happened. So that's tough news for them.

597
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: You know, they're breaking in the rookie quarterback. This is

598
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,959
Speaker 1: gonna be a very interesting deal as you're gonna try

599
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 1: to stop that ground game with Robinson, and we mentioned

600
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: the Texans defenders who are out. McLean doesn't think it's

601
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: a big deal, but Johnny, you know, it's a big

602
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 1: deal until you do it right, and you have to

603
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 1: be able to get it accomplished. Slow down that run

604
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: and hope that Luton you know, he doesn't have to

605
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: make if you're running the ball well and you're Jacksonville.

606
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: He doesn't have to make too many big throws, you know,

607
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,120
Speaker 1: just a few key third downs here and there, maybe

608
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: a big play here and there, and what if you

609
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: turn it over yourself And all of a sudden you're

610
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: looking at upset city in North Florida, something we don't

611
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: want to see. Yeah, and we've seen, we've seen some

612
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: weird games there. I mean twenties sixteen or twenty fifteen

613
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: I came, or twenty sixteen, Yeah, twenty sixteen. We go

614
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: there and I mean, we can't we can't move the

615
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: ball for the most part, and that thing just stayed

616
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: closer than it was supposed to be in Borders kept

617
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: trying to give it to us. But then we get

618
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: a lead and he brings them back and it's a

619
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: three point game at the end, and you know, Brock's

620
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 1: got to make that throw to hop for the first

621
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: down to seal it. And it was like, oh, that

622
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: game shouldn't have been close. The year before it was

623
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: the same way. So it's always kind of a weird

624
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: game down there. And now if you're facing a rookie,

625
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: I mean, what is that guy got to lose? You know,

626
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna be sling. He's got a big arm. I

627
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 1: mean big arm, and it's a big guy. But rookie

628
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: at quarterback, rookie at running back. If Robinson is unable

629
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: to play, you got inexperience at left tackle. So you

630
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: definitely have got some things not going in the direction

631
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: of the Jacksonville Jaguars in this one. But you've got

632
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: to go down there and just you gotta play the

633
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: game that you're gonna play over the last nine You

634
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 1: gotta just take one step at a time. And I

635
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: think it was either JJ to Shaun that said it, Look,

636
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: you can't go you can't go nine and ozero in

637
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: week nine. You can go one and ozero, And you

638
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: just got to go win the game that's in front

639
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: of you. And how have you decide you're gonna do that?

640
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: Go do it. It's been a weird year already, but

641
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: you know what, just go go play ball and try

642
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 1: and enjoy these last nine weeks because you know, and

643
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: I think Deshan said this too. Look, every team is different.

644
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: Eighteen was different than nineteen, was different than twenty and

645
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one is gonna be different than all of

646
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: them combined. So just gotten and enjoy each other as teammates.

647
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: And play together, play well together, and you know, get

648
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: a w and get out of there. All right. So

649
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: during the break, got a couple of texts about are

650
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: you serious? Like what would it actually take if they

651
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: were to team field in each conference to get back

652
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: into it. Well, here, I'm gonna really simplify it for everybody. Winning, Okay,

653
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 1: winning is you know? You here? You are one in six.

654
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: You know you've got to what do you have to

655
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: do here in the final nine games? Go seven and

656
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: two basically in order to have a shot. I mean,

657
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 1: you just do you? I mean, I think eight and

658
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 1: eight in an eight team field might do it. You're

659
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 1: three games out of a spot right now. Okay, three

660
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: games out of the spot, and there are like three

661
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: teams that have four wins or something like that, and

662
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 1: there are a bunch of teams with five. I mean,

663
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: but I'm telling you you could get in with eight night.

664
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: But to go eight night is herculean here because you

665
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: have to be seven and two down the stretch on

666
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: the back nine here in order to get it done. Now,

667
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: it's not impossible. And look, we're all here for it.

668
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: We're all here to watch week to week and see

669
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: if they can get out a role, and you know

670
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 1: if they get a ton of help, but they're just Johnny.

671
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: There are a lot of decent teams here. Bills, Dolphins

672
00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: are having a nice year. The Raiders are having a

673
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: pretty decent year. Obviously. You know, I'm not even talking

674
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 1: about the division winners or leaders. Really. I guess the

675
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: Bills are, of course, but the Ravens are five and two,

676
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: the Browns are five and three, the Cults are five

677
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: and two, not even in the lead in the AFC

678
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 1: South officially. Right now, you got a lot of squads

679
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 1: having pretty decent years. You're gonna need some meltdowns along

680
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 1: the way, and you're gonna need to completely reverse what

681
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: you did in the first seven games. Mark, I was

682
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 1: never a fast like DK Metcalf to just chase down

683
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: Buddha Baker, And so whenever a running back would break

684
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: through the line the opposite side of where I was,

685
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: I literally would just put my head down and just

686
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: have an idea of where I needed to run and

687
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 1: just run, start running, just start running as fast as

688
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: humanly possible, and then if I got close, then you

689
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: could handle, well, can I tackle this guy? How should

690
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: I tackle this guy? Do you have to die. But

691
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: I would have never had a chance to tackle him

692
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: if I just didn't put my head down, didn't worry

693
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: about where he was, and just ran. And that's kind

694
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: what the Texans have to do. They can't worry about

695
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: what's in front of them, what's in front of them.

696
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars under five hundred team. The Cleveland Browns are

697
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: over five hundred, but not a great team right now, no,

698
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 1: no o b J. Then you got the Patriots well

699
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 1: under five hundred. You got the Lions well under five hundred.

700
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 1: You know, sprint as hard as you can, putting your

701
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 1: head down and just going in that general direction, and

702
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: maybe you'll catch up to the guy with the ball

703
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: and then you can decide whether you could tackle him

704
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: or not, or maybe you never catch him, but you

705
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: know you gave it your best effort. And that's what

706
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be. Now. The last couple

707
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: of years I think are decent indicators mark of what

708
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 1: this team can do after the bye. And in twenty eighteen,

709
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: five and two, oh no, I'm sorry, four and two

710
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: after the bye, and then after the bye last year,

711
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,919
Speaker 1: I think it was five and two. I didn't count

712
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: that last game I didn't count that last game with

713
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: um or maybe the other way around twenty eighteen. Yeah,

714
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: I didn't call it. I didn't count that last game

715
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: against Tennessee because I was kind of a JV squad game,

716
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,719
Speaker 1: so I didn't really count that. But the winning percentage

717
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: the last couple of years for the Texans after the

718
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: bye is like sixty eight sixty nine percent. To get

719
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: to get to the mark, like you said, of eight

720
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 1: and eight, it would take seven and two after the bye,

721
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: and that percentage is a little bit higher than that.

722
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 1: They've been pretty good after the bye, but they've got

723
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 1: to be even better. And that seven out of nine

724
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: is seventy eight percent. So it's tough. But we talked

725
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: about it all offseason after the schedule was released. These

726
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,959
Speaker 1: last nine games. Look at the schedule. This can play

727
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 1: out in a good way for you. You just can't

728
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: botch the first seven. Well, all right, you botched the

729
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 1: first seven, But can you make up ground? Can you

730
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 1: dk Metcalf this thing and chase down Buddha Baker at

731
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: some point and tackle him before he gets in the

732
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 1: end zone, because that's really what you have to do,

733
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: and to do that, it's one step at a time,

734
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: one sixty minute step at a time, and you know what,

735
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: if you start playing like you're supposed to, now you

736
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: start getting some confidence. Now there's some joy back in

737
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: what you're doing. And now you look up and go, hey,

738
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,279
Speaker 1: it's the Colts. We can handle these jokers. We know

739
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: what to do. But they've got to be able to

740
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 1: handle one step at a time before they get there. Yeah.

741
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,399
Speaker 1: I just feel like their identity right now they don't

742
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: really have one. You know, they throw the ball well,

743
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: but very often it's second half stuff when you're down

744
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: at the break, and we went over their first half problems.

745
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 1: How they don't score in the first half nearly enough,

746
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: they're not moving the ball well in the first half,

747
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 1: and then when it's time to really get it going, Yeah,

748
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: they do get it going, but very often it's too little,

749
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: too late. I mean, obviously you're one and six, so

750
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 1: the record speaks for itself. Somehow, someway get cranking in

751
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 1: the first quarter. How about a touchdown or I think

752
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: it's fourteen points total in the first quarter all year.

753
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: They've got to figure out a way to get that

754
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,360
Speaker 1: offense wrapped up and oh my gosh, first drive of

755
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 1: the game can you imagine going downfield and scoring a

756
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: touchdown in the opening possession. How you know, we'd break

757
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: out the champagne. It'd be fantastic for this team. It'd

758
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 1: be the first time they've done it in two years, Right, Johnny,

759
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,240
Speaker 1: we just have to shoot the champagne into the pool.

760
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 1: Here you go. Yeah, that's it. You're you know what,

761
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: You're going to the pool. Yeah, you're gonna go do

762
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: the rest of the reports from the pool. If they

763
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 1: score that opening drive, even though it's the Jags, I

764
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: don't care. We gotta do something good. Johnny, thanks a

765
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: lot for being with us all right around the league

766
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: we go and also Houston Methodist Minutes, and you know what,

767
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 1: every week I'm trying to pick something that's not just

768
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: a sports thing but applies to everybody. And you know,

769
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: we did COVID and a lot of other topics, and

770
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: this week I said, all right, back pain. You know,

771
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: every not everybody, but a lot of people have chronic

772
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: back pain. We've got the miracle cure. Actually though we

773
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: have a Houston Methodist doctor talking about that for just

774
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: a few moments on Houston Methodist Minutes plus what's going

775
00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: on around the league and a little bit more on

776
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,959
Speaker 1: Josh account. It's all coming up here on Texans Radio

777

Speaker 1: Texans All access continues inablements. Two is better than one.

778
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: How many times have you heard that one? More than once?

779
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: I bet because it just adds up. For example, there

780
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: are two, not one, great reasons to fill up with

781
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:21,760
Speaker 1: Chevron with Techron number one unbeatable cleaning power a number

782
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 1: two or maybe this should be number one unbeatable mileage.

783
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: Plus Chevron quits Techron in every grade every gallant of

784
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,760
Speaker 1: their gasoline. So that's two, no way three unbeatable reasons

785
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: to go with the one and only Chevron with Tekron

786
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,640

Speaker 1: thirty or after the late local news on TBC thirteen. Well,

812
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 1: I really, I really hope everyone gets a chance to

813
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,200
Speaker 1: hear that promo with Seth and his exchange with Romeo

814
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 1: Cornell on the mixed nuts, because Romeo got it started

815
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: the other day when he said he wasn't trading people

816
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 1: for peanuts. Actually, call McNair got it started, saying we

817
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: love the players, and you know, you take it that

818
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: nobody blew away the Texans. But the point is about

819
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: the mixed nuts thing. Come on, salted planters straight up,

820
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: let's go. I mean, that's that's the best right there.

821
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: And don't be throwing those uh smoked almonds down at

822
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 1: too rapid a rate. Okay, there's a lot of protein,

823
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of fat there. Okay, it's

824
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 1: it's the good kind of fat though, that's what they say.

825
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,720
Speaker 1: What the heck does that mean? I don't know. Apparently

826
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 1: avocados have it as well. All right, let's go here.

827
00:42:55,280 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: As people are emailing in about the email, texting in

828
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 1: about the eighty two playoffs, because we brought up the

829
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: fact that there were eight teams per conference getting in

830
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: then it was a tournament. There were twenty eight teams

831
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: in the league. And that was Miami losing to Washington

832
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, and in the AFC Championship game,

833
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 1: Miami beat the Jets with Richard Todd. I remember that

834
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 1: was a mud bowl and Richard Todd guy replaced Joe

835
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 1: Namath also went to Alabama and Washington defeated Dallas, who

836
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: was playing Gary Hoga Boom in that NFC championship game

837
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: out of Central Michigan. All right, a Chippewa, there we

838
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: have it. But it was a very cool time to

839
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: be an NFL fan because they were coming back from

840
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: the big strike break. You had all these teams in

841
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,920
Speaker 1: the postseason, and I just think for the league, it's

842
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: gonna be fun if they go to eight teams per

843
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: conference this year. Now, you'd love to be part of it.

844
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: And all throughout these years, folks, all throughout these AFC

845
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: South Championship years, I've always told you I'd rather be

846
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: in it than not. I mean, I'm not saying that

847
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: I settle, but man, it's such a joy, such a

848
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 1: privilege and a pleasure to get to the postseason. And

849
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 1: this year you're one in six and it's long odds

850
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,640
Speaker 1: to make it, and I hope they do somehow or

851
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 1: some miracle. But I never ever ever take it for

852
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: granted to be a winner, to be a winner and

853
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 1: in the postseason and I love that. Now, don't love

854
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 1: exiting because that hurts no matter how you do it.

855
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 1: And you'd rather win it all of course, duh. But

856
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: let's get in there now. I'm not saying it's going

857
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 1: to happen this year, but my point is all those

858
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: years when I'm saying, hey, guys, you gotta winning team.

859
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:32,840
Speaker 1: You get a team that wins more than it loses.

860
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,359
Speaker 1: That's a very good thing. You know that. I get

861
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: it that you want to be winning super Bowls, but

862
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: you also want to be winning. The joy is in

863
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 1: the journey, and the journey this year is very rough

864
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 1: at one and six. And let's hope they can get

865
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of a role here after the break. Now,

866
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: I promised you this chronic back pain is a big

867
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: problem for people. Doctor William Waters of Houston Methodist talks

868
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: about chronic back pain. I caught up with him on

869
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: this very subject, right Mark, And in fact that you

870
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: put a very important word in there when you said

871
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,720
Speaker 1: chronic acute back pain, the kind of thing that happens

872
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: over the weekend. You know that happens a lot. That's

873
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: a high percentage of patients that we see on a

874
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 1: daily basis. Our treatment difficulties come in those patients who

875
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,320
Speaker 1: don't seem to ever get over it or who just

876
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: get recurrent episodes. So the kinds of chronic back pain

877
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,399
Speaker 1: we see are just sort of unremitting. It just goes

878
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: on and on no matter what you try, or the

879
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,399
Speaker 1: frequently recurring every time I run, I get back pain.

880
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: Those are the two biggest groups. There's a very small

881
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 1: group of patients who get chronic back pain who have

882
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: a very serious other problem, and we're not going to

883
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: talk about those today. Those are people who have serious

884
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 1: diseases like cancer and so on, and that's a whole

885
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,919
Speaker 1: different game. But the common chronic condition is one that's

886
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: very frustrating for both doctors and the patients. What's the

887
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 1: most common cause of back pain that you find we

888
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: in our practice, and especially now during the pen em

889
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,879
Speaker 1: we're seeing patients who are increasingly deconditioned. They can't get

890
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: to the gym like they used too. For the most part,

891
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 1: it's still hard to do that. They're not running as

892
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 1: much as they used to. Most of lower back pain

893
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: is the combination of the natural aging that takes place

894
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 1: in the spine, and that's referred to as a degenerative

895
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: discondition superimposed upon which daily activities, work, demand's, family, etc.

896
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 1: Slowly deconditions of the patients core strength over a period

897
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: of months and years. So as we get above the

898
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 1: age of twenty two or twenty three and on and

899
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:38,240
Speaker 1: in the fifties, it's a deconditioning syndrome. I'm superimposed upon aging.

900
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,280
Speaker 1: So you would say exercise is really the best prevention,

901
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:44,400
Speaker 1: but you get into the right kinds of exercises right,

902
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 1: absolutely critical. You know. Let me just take it away

903
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: from here from it and tell you that there was

904
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: a very important study down a few years ago by

905
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 1: the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and it found that

906
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: low back paint is the number one disability in the

907
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:04,280
Speaker 1: war in terms of loss of income and loss of productivity.

908
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 1: The vast majority of that is a result of deconditioning. Wow, okay,

909
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 1: So stay in shape, do the best you can doing that.

910
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: And so interesting to find that COVID and a little

911
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 1: bit of a lack of activity is certainly contributing to this. Doctor,

912
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: thank you so much for your time. We really appreciate it.

913
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 1: You bet Mark. All right, there it is doctor William Waters,

914
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: Houston Methodist, the official healthcare provider of the Houston Texans.
