1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Here's the snap looking touch them off, diving for the

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: plylot that he's got it. Brazzle Tasole, touchdown the Tustans

3
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: and the Texans go in front. There is no off

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: season for your abuston Texans game day. He's every day.

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: We had a lot of energy and we brought a

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: lot of spark for this organization. Five nights a week.

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: They hits keep on coming out. The Texans say they

8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 1: have it and they do. No, it's Texans all excess.

9
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: All right, let's go everybody Training Camp week. Oh, it's

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,639
Speaker 1: finally here. Yes, cannot wait. We will have you all

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,240
Speaker 1: week long. Obviously are a normal spot from six to seven.

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: But then on Friday, the voice of Texans, Mark vannimom myself,

13
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: we'll be bringing you Texans Training Camp alive right from

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: the action. Cannot wait. We'll beyond eight to ten, right

15
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: after Seawan and Seth Paint and Pendergas. I think that's

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: order that I heard him discussing that the other day

17
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: Penegaston Payne. Yeah, okay, either way, either Sean is Seth.

18
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: We'll be following them from eight to ten, and we'll

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: be doing that for the following two weeks. Lest not

20
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: remind you that one month from tonight, your Texans will

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: be in Kansas City to take on the world champion

22
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs in the open one a month from tonight.

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: How does that sound, Mark Vannimir, It sounds great, Johnny.

24
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: Right now, we'll be in the pregame show, so we'll

25
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 1: be getting ready for the broadcast and really look forward

26
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: to being there. And I hope that's still the case.

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many things with pandemic sports related

28
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: issues that are up in the air, and one of

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: them is NFL team radio crews traveling. As of Saturday,

30
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: I counted twenty two that we're not traveling to games.

31
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: They We're gonna do them monitors like the NBA and

32
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, and you know, we might get shut down.

33
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: I have to do that ourselves, but I hope not,

34
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: because I think the authenticity of being an Arrowhead Stadium

35
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: is going to be huge. And it's one month tonight

36
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: front tonight, as he said, and I'm totally pumped for

37
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: this thing. Yeah, it's to think that football. I mean,

38
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: if you spend a day on Twitter, which I will

39
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 1: be honest, I did not. I spent about probably two

40
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: and a half to three hours in La La Land

41
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: on some painkillers and muscle relaxers. So I wasn't following

42
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: it all day, but I was pretty much last night.

43
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: I was in sheer pain physically, and then I'm watching

44
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: all this unfold about college football, and I just I was,

45
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: I was, I rate on so many different levels, Mark

46
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: because and we just didn't see us in the NFL,

47
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: because I think from the beginning, whenever there was a problem, Okay, well,

48
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: how are you going to do the draft, well, Roger

49
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: Goodell in the NFL League office teamed up with the

50
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 1: thirty two teams and came up with a way to

51
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: do the draft. How are you going to do training camp? Well,

52
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell in the league office and medical professionals that

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: they have in house and throughout the world, said okay,

54
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: how we're going to training camp and we're doing training camp,

55
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: and how are you going to do season? Well, my

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: guess is if you follow the two others, you're gonna

57
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: go that way. College football has been a complete, total mess,

58
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: complete and total mess. Kids want to play, the student

59
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: athletes want to play. Some we say student athletes, I

60
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: mean and there's so many people that say, whoa if

61
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: you keep away from school, then their place. I don't

62
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: want to even go down that road. I want to

63
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about the good things happening

64
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: in training camp, the questions that we need to have

65
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: answered in training camp. Mark, I want to do some

66
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: over unders. In the second segment with you want to

67
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: go round the league. I saw this article I want

68
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: to hit with you from CBS Sports where a young

69
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: man by the name of Brian Diardo came up with

70
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: three bold predictions for the Texans in twenty twenty, and

71
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: I want to get your gut reaction to each of them.

72
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: One of them I absolutely agree with, the second one

73
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: a little list stretch. The third one is way way

74
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: out there that I would not not even touch. But

75
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: we got to get to a little bit of news

76
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: of the day that comes from the Texans. So let's

77
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: do our hot reads. Is. We've got a couple of

78
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: transactions that are key here. The Texans get up to

79
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: eighty players with the following transactions. Number one, the Texans

80
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: have signed the following free agent out of LSU, a

81
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: tackle slash guard Gerald Hawkins, and they have also followed

82
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: up with a player passing his physical. He is now

83
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: removed from physically unable to perform to the active roster,

84
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: and that would be one of the key pieces I

85
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: think for this entire team this year. Mark, and I

86
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: do not think I'm out on a very thin limb

87
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: on that one. I think that is a very true

88
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: statement that I just made. Of course, because I made it,

89
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: I believe in it. Garyon Conley is removed from active

90
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: pup to the active rosters. So Mark, two players added,

91
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: Gerald Hawkins from LSU who have been with the Steelers,

92
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: played a tackle, and then garyon Conley comes from Ohio State.

93
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: Your overall to those two moves the Texans made with

94
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: Hawkins coming in and Conny well, early camp pup. You

95
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: never freak out about that. We always say this. Sometimes

96
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: you come off in ten minutes, you know. So Conley back,

97
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: great to see it. A month to go before the opener,

98
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: so let's go. And as far as adding a tackle

99
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: slash guard, you know, look, you're always looking to add

100
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: offensive line depth. Well, we don't know though, we're not

101
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: out there yet. Is there an injury, is there something

102
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 1: like that that necessitates a move to bring in an

103
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: extra alignment or is it just about Hey, let's make

104
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: sure we have some extra alignment. Maybe we want more

105
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: than we thought we needed initially because of COVID. Because

106
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: if any position group is going to get hit with COVID,

107
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: you would think it would be the old line, right,

108
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 1: possibly based on the proximity, the way they play together,

109
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: and D line as well. You know, the guys in

110
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: the trenches might be most susceptible. Now that's just sort

111
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: of logical talk. It's nothing based on any medical information.

112
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: But the closer you are, the higher the chances, you

113
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: would think, So that could have something to do with it.

114
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: But Bill O'Brien will share some info on that later

115
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: in the week, and we're gonna have them live by

116
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: the way, well not live, not completely live, but very

117
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: close to it eight o'clock on Friday, Bill O'Brien exclusive

118
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 1: interview to kick off Padded Practices of Training camp. And

119
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: I just think that, look, the more people you have,

120
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: the more bodies you know. I know that they cut

121
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: it down to eighty Johnny, but I bet the coaches

122
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: are thinking about now it is a hassle to coach

123
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: this way. That they're grateful to be able to do it,

124
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: but boy, they would love ninety. You know, they want more,

125
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: the more the merrier, of course, yeah, absolutely, I mean

126
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: death becomes the oyo. Coach, you got a couple of tackles.

127
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: I mean, thinking about how fast it can happened, right, hey, coach,

128
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: you know's just take running backs. Not to say this

129
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: would happen, but we have. We've seen this at various times.

130
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: I remember twenty fifteen, the hard knocks year, you know Arian,

131
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: when the first padded practice Arian went down. I want

132
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: to say it was with the groin. Well, Arian goes

133
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: down with the groin, and then I don't know, later

134
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: on Alfred Blue ends up getting some dehydration he needs.

135
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: He's fine, he's got to just go get an ivy

136
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: to get some you know, to get some hydration. All

137
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you got your third back in there

138
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: with your first offense. And who's to say whether that

139
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: guy ends up knowing the offense, whether he knows the

140
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: plays the first group does. Maybe there's a reason he's

141
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: with the threes. Well of a sudden, he's not gonna

142
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: go with the number ones. So I think having more depth,

143
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: especially at a key spot like the offensive line, and

144
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: I seem to remember now I could be totally wrong

145
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: on this, but I seem to remember when Hawkins was

146
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: coming out of LSU and he was essentially Leonard Fernette's

147
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: leading offensive lineman in that group. In twenty fifteen, we

148
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: saw him at the Texas Bowl long arms, I mean

149
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: long for days. I remember hearing through the grape vine,

150
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: and I didn't actually hear this in the building. I

151
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: heard this from a couple of people outside the building

152
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: that the Texans were very interesting Joe Hawkins. So maybe

153
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: it's one of those situations where they saw an opportunity.

154
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: They saw some things from him him at the pro level.

155
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: They thought, hey, let's let's rock and roll with this.

156
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: Let's go with Jerald Hawkins and see what we can do,

157
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: especially adding to the depth. And you're right, we don't

158
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: know if there's an injury, and keep in mind Titus

159
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: Howard is still coming back from the knee injury, so

160
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: there might be a ramping up process that they need

161
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: with Titus that everything is fine, but they want to

162
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: just minimize the number of reps that they have, and

163
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: they feel like with Charlie Heck, they have an opportunity

164
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: to do that and now bring in a guy Jarald Hawkins.

165
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: He'd come in like Rod Johnson's the guy that we

166
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: saw make a ton of improvement last year in twenty nineteen.

167
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: So to me, and I don't know, maybe I don't

168
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: think I'm out of turn and saying, as you can

169
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: bring as many offers linemen as you want, I'd be

170
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: fine with that. I am. I am you can bring

171
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: in all the offensive lineman that you want, and I

172
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 1: am totally and completely cool with that any day of

173
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: the week. Well, it's funny because like you're just totally

174
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: speculating right there about Howard. You know, it's like we

175
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: got a roster move and you and I both have

176
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: these theories, right yeah, and we're gonna see. But I

177
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: think you're you know, you're onto something in that. You

178
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: know when you talk about Charlie Heck, who's a rookie,

179
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: you know, how deep are you at tackle? And I

180
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: think that, uh, and they want versatility. They want you'd

181
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: be able to play guard or tackle if if you

182
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,319
Speaker 1: possibly can, especially if they're just bringing you in like this, Um.

183
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: And I think it was a great point you made.

184
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember m seeing that Texas Bowl luncheon

185
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 1: when LSU was here with Fournette and that team, and

186
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 1: the way the way they were. And uh, that's where

187
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 1: we started the tradition of singing during the luncheon and

188
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: we just whipped that. I mean I just came up

189
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: with that on the fly at the podium. Uh. Fournette

190
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: did not sing, by the way, But but that was

191
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 1: a good little battle we had that day. I think

192
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: there are a lot of things in play here, you know.

193
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: And I know that once we get out there, because

194
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: today they did a little special teams install stuff, they

195
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: did some other walkthrough stuff, They're gonna ramp it up

196
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: more tomorrow, Wednesdays and off day Thursday, ramp it up

197
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: more than Friday and pads. Once we get a look

198
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: at them on Friday, I know you're gonna have a

199
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: whole lot to offer us as far as information about

200
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: the way things appear to be at this juncture. Oh yes,

201
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: Well you think I'm gonna go to practice and be like, no,

202
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: I am not telling anybody anything. I am keeping it

203
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: all to myself. Now, come on, man, you know me,

204
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: I'm like a football Santa Claus. I'd like to share

205
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 1: with everybody as much as I possibly can. I mean,

206
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: that's six o'clock Friday night show. My goodness, should be.

207
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: You're gonna need extra time. Yeah, I don't know if

208
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: we'll get I don't know if we'll get through an

209
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: hour of that that'll be. I mean you might, you might.

210
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 1: Actually you can take the night off. You all off,

211
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: you're here. I'll just start the show, Johnny practice, go

212
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: and then I'll just come back at seven. Good night everybody. Yeah,

213
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: we'll just have to check and see who's listening from

214
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: across the AFC South. And it's funny you talking about

215
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Leonard Fernette not singing, well, he's definitely singing a different

216
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 1: tune now that Gardner Minshew is, uh, the quarterback in

217
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 1: Cam Newton is not Look look look Gardner, that was

218
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: just you know, people made a big deal about me

219
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 1: wanting Cam am. But you know we're good. We're good. Yeah,

220
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: that should make you feel good. Gardner Minshew can get

221
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: Leonard from now to spend the off season going we

222
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: want Cam new we want Cam Newton. Oh yeah, by

223
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 1: the way, now, no, not a Gardner. We're good. We're good, bro,

224
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: We're bro's right. Yeah, Leonard, you're gonna be out of Jacksonville.

225
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: Fessor and Gardner Minshew will be okay, Mark as we

226
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: get ready for training camp. I obviously did my top

227
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: fives last week on a daily Brew and I got

228
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: to a section that we can actually build upon, and

229
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: it was my five questions heading into training camp. And

230
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: there's absolutely nothing about health because that's the first one. Well,

231
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: how do you keep everybody healthy? I don't even want

232
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: to health. It's just assumed to always be a question

233
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: mark when you go into training camp. Always the people

234
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: get banked up. I mean, health is always well if

235
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: this guy is healthy, and I mean how long how

236
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: many times can we say it for Will Fuller and

237
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: you know some of the guys that have been out

238
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: health out of this as far as questions go, because

239
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: that will always be a question. That's like a hall

240
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 1: of fame question. When you put scandals in sports and

241
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: you start with various things, you always put oj Simpsons

242
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: up on the shelf as a hall of fame one

243
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: because that will always be number one. So it's like

244
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: everything but that. So here we go, let's dive into

245
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: these questions. Number one. You know this is actually well, yeah,

246
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: I'll go in order. Number one, how valuable do you

247
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,719
Speaker 1: think the inter squad scrimmages will be in lieu of

248
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: joint practices and preseason games, this soft season and training camp.

249
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be really valuable. But I know, look,

250
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: you know how coaches are, and when you put that

251
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: down on paper in July that you're gonna have a

252
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: scrimmage or two and then you go do it. And

253
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: it's an NFL team, not a college team, right. I

254
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: just think that by the time we get there, they

255
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: know they need the physical battle. They need some contact.

256
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: I mean, they really do. You can't just go a

257
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: month from tonight and just, you know, go all out

258
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs. You have to have something.

259
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: You don't have joint practices, don't have the preseason games.

260
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: But I just got a hard time with them going

261
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: full out. You know. I know it'll be thud or

262
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: whatever they call it, but it's gonna be tough. They're

263
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: gonna be watching that one biting their nails hoping that

264
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: nobody gets heard because it's close enough to the opener. Yet,

265
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, you need the contact. I get, I know it.

266
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: You can't play football with fear and everything, but this

267
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: year you've got injury issues. Possibly you know you have

268
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: injury risks is a better way of putting it. And

269
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: you have covid risks. You got a lot going on here.

270
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you're really you feel like you're walking the

271
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: tight rope. I would imagine if you're these guys. Okay,

272
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: so coach Harris is taken over at for coach O'Brian.

273
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: Scary thought though, that might be. I put together a

274
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: scrimmage in which the ones go against each other for

275
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: fifteen plays and that's it, and the rest of the

276
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: practice is about forty five to fifty plays, twos and

277
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: threes split up as such like do you think that

278
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: each do you think those groups are getting what it is?

279
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: Because my point of that is with the ones, I

280
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: don't know that you need to see Sean go up

281
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: and down against the number one defense for forty five plays.

282
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: They need to get in rhythm, and I think they

283
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: can do that with some of the seven on seven,

284
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: with some of the team stuff, a lot of the

285
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: situational stuff they'll do that is not in a scrimmage setting.

286
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: But a scrimmage setting, I think you go ten to

287
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: fifteen plays the ones on ones, get them out. There

288
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: might be some guys that kind of carry over to

289
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: the twos, but then you let the twos and threes,

290
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: which you got a handful of rookies, which has got

291
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: a handful of guys looking to make the roster, and

292
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: then they go at it for forty to forty five

293
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: plays and maybe you bang a little bit more with

294
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: that group your thoughts. I think that's the first preseason

295
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: game basically what you just described. If you're talking ten

296
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: fifteen plays, that's pretty much the first preseason game the

297
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: way it's evolved, right, So it's about a quarter maybe

298
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: a little bit more of action for your ones. And

299
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: I like the way you sort of transition into the

300
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: twos there. And I think that after a while you

301
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: just say bubble wrap, right because I think physical look,

302
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: football ship is football shape. Everybody tells me that. But

303
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: if you're in great eight physical condition on September tenth,

304
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: that night and it could be warm, could be a

305
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: really warm night. It could be having a September blast

306
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: in Missouri, you know, or it could be yeah, maybe

307
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: get a little lot of them chill. You don't know

308
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: what you're gonna get, but you better be in great

309
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: shape and then be able to deal with whatever comes

310
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: your way football wise. These early games week one, Wow,

311
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: how interesting is this Some teams just won't be ready.

312
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: Some teams are gonna get overwhelmed week one. It's gonna

313
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: be like you know, in the bowl games, this happens,

314
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: right when when you have a big break, or somebody

315
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: just doesn't want to be there, or just one team

316
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: very often isn't ready to play. That could happen week one.

317
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: Based on a lot of the stuff we're talking about here.

318
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting you bring up the weather. Twenty

319
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: seven teen, we went to New England. It's the hottest

320
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: I've been on a sideline of any game, the hottest

321
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: late September, late September, and it was eighty eight to

322
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: ninety degrees down in the field. It was steaming hot.

323
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: I have never worn my not warm. My polar la

324
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: was got hot in the second half, in the first

325
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: half in particular last year year as well. But then

326
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: when we went back for the opener in twenty eighteen

327
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: to New England, it was like sixty and I mean

328
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: it was week one to week three. It was like

329
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: you like mid September versus a little bit late September,

330
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: but the difference was like twenty five to thirty degrees.

331
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: It was ridiculous. Okay, let's go to question three. Who

332
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: takes over at safety next to Justin Reid Mark? Oh,

333
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: I have Murray. Okay, what are you breaking? Somebody go ahead,

334
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Murray. My theories is that is Thomas

335
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: your theory? Oh, I know your theory. You know what

336
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: it is. Oh, yes, it's Loney time. Yes, that's my theory.

337
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: It's Lyne Johnson. Is that it ends up being Lonny

338
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: and when now, maybe not right away, maybe not right

339
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: all right. See that's the thing though, I mean, all right,

340
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: I can go with you down this rope. Okay, I can't.

341
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: I've always said about starters, like people ask who who's starting?

342
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: Who's starting? Look when they're there's certain spots for starters

343
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: that I don't freak out about, like defensive lineman, safeties, corners,

344
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: like who starts? Like people get like, is this guy

345
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: started at wide receiver? Okay? There they're games probably along

346
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: the way where DeAndre Hopkins didn't. He probably started, but

347
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: like he and Will might have been the only two

348
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: that started. But then when they brought in Kiki Qts

349
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: just in the Colts game, I remember he played I

350
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: think ninety seven percent of the snaps, so it doesn't

351
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,959
Speaker 1: always matter who starts. But my point in asking, like

352
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: who starts, who will eventually be that guy that emerges

353
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: to play the majority of the time next to Justin Reid?

354
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: And I just have a feeling it's gonna be Lonnie

355
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: Johnson in some way, shape or form. Now, I don't

356
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,919
Speaker 1: know if that means that they'll be playing the exact

357
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: same defense as last year, they'll be tweaks to the

358
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,360
Speaker 1: defense had last year. I just think when they came

359
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: out for that playoff game against the Chiefs and I

360
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: saw Lonnie out there next to Justin Reid. Not part

361
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: of that was because there was no Gibson, there was

362
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: no Die, but it also had a feeling that Johnson

363
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 1: was out there because the way they wanted to match

364
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: up in the passing game against the Chiefs. Because the

365
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 1: Chiefs put three pass catchers out there. It's Hardman, It's Hill,

366
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: and it's Watkins and then it's Kelsey. Well, you need

367
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: four corners to match up with those guys, and the

368
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 1: closest thing you get to a safety slash corner with

369
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: the size is Lonnie to match up with Kelsey. Now,

370
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: Kelsey had his way with him this time, but a

371
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: week six don't line some good things against him. So

372
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: that's probably the best, probably the best way of covering

373
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: the Chiefs team. But I think just going forward, I

374
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: think Lonnie's gonna end up having a new position and

375
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: they'll just call it defensive back and it'll just be

376
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: he'll be a corner, so he'll be a safety Salm,

377
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,919
Speaker 1: he'll be, you know, down in the box as a

378
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, a moved up you know, it's a box safety.

379
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: You know. I think there's gonna be a lot of

380
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: things they can do Lonnie Johnson. This is gonna be

381
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: kind of an experiment. But what do you think about

382
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: that safety position next to Justin Well, he's bigger than

383
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: any safety they have. Put it downright, Lonnie is Lonnie's

384
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: bigger than any safety the Houston Texans have. So you know,

385
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: he looks like a safety, right, I mean, he's he's

386
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: got the build for it. And all right, if we're

387
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 1: gonna go, let's go mass speculation here because it's speculation

388
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: Radio six ten. Hey, Yeah, this is why they didn't

389
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: bring in a huge name. Right. You have Eric Murray

390
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 1: and Michael Thomas. These are good players. You have good

391
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,959
Speaker 1: guys here. Uh, you have Jellen Watkins. They also brought him.

392
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: We don't talk about him much, but they have Lonnie

393
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: and you still have a J. Moore's special teams of course,

394
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: and he can play safety at a pinch, but you're

395
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: not really going to pencil him in to your starting

396
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: lineup really, So maybe this was the plan all along.

397
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: We need some insurance, maybe we need somebody to do

398
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: it early, but we work Lonnie in. Maybe we're gonna

399
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: give Lonnie every opportunity to do it, and if he can't,

400
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: we have the insurance. Right So maybe you're right here, Johnny,

401
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 1: crazy like a fox. Here they are with Lonnie lining

402
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: up at safety on opening night. It would that would

403
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: be nice, not speculation. People talk about the Texans defense.

404
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: Oh it's not that good. It's nothing good. Okay, we'll

405
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: put the best eleven guys you got in the field.

406
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that that isn't always the thing

407
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: you have to do because you can't you can't you know, say,

408
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 1: Russ Blacklocke and Angela Blackson are kind of you can't

409
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: put one of them at safety. But you can get

410
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 1: as close as possible to playing the best eleven guys

411
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: you have on the field, and then you try and

412
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: go make it work, and you hope the guys you

413
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: put out there have some versatility that you can do

414
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: some different things that you can play nickel even though

415
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: it looks like bass, you know, those kind of things. Um,

416
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: and so hopefully with a guy like you. Just think

417
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: about some of the guys they have. You have JJ Watt,

418
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: you have Justin Reid, you have a guy like Lonnie Johnson,

419
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: those you have, Zach Cuttingham. You have some guys that

420
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: can do some different things, you know. But Rodrick McKinney

421
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: caronticup is an outside edge rush sure if you want

422
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: them to. The more guys you have that could stay

423
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: on the field and give you different looks as opposed

424
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: to you know, a guy that's just an inside linebacker

425
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: and that's all he does and play and he's got

426
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: to come off the field on second down. Okay, well

427
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: that's probably not that's probably not gonna work. But if

428
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: you have some guys with some and people hate the

429
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 1: words of versatility, but on defense, versatility is a good

430
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: thing because now you can give different looks to a

431
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: quarterback and go, wait a second, that's the same look

432
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 1: I got, But they are playing a totally different scheme

433
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: back behind it. So that's my hope, and a guy

434
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: like lyon Johns can help you do that. Okay, we

435
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: get back. I've got some over unders and Mark, they

436
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: are all focused on Anthony Weaver's defense it. We'll go

437
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: over those next. Right here in Texans All Access can't

438
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: get enough Texans Radio. We've got shows, we've got podcasts,

439
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: we've got interviews. It's all on Houston Texans dot Com.

440
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: Going somewhere the Texans Mobile. Don't leave home without it. Yes, sir,

441
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: welcome back to a Monday edition. I wish I could

442
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: say Thursday then tomorrow morning you would hear Mark in

443
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 1: my self doing Texas Trading Camp Live eight to ten

444
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: starting Friday, August fourteenth, carrying it for the next four weeks.

445
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: It'll sort of be bittersweet in some sense because that

446
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 1: August fourteenth day, that night, we would have been playing Minnesota.

447
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, first, and I guarantee if there had been

448
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: no COVID, we would have been in Minneapolis or Eaton

449
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: Prairie wherever the Minnesota facility was for joint practices. I

450
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 1: could almost promise you we'd be there right now. Yeah,

451
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: oh yeah, we'd be there right now in Minnesota. Oh man,

452
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 1: but I bet it's a lot cooler. Don't don't even

453
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: get me started, Mark, I bet it's a lot cooler, Johnny,

454
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: don't get me started on a cooler. My son went

455
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: outside at some point this weekend and he because for

456
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: those that don't know momus, he likes to go a

457
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: walk and kind of helps him kind of untangle the

458
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: chords upstairs. He went off for five seconds. He came out,

459
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 1: he slammed the doors. He's like, it's just way too hot.

460
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: And then he found something on read it somebody there's

461
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 1: a picture taken from the sun. It showed like, I

462
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 1: don't even know how to explain it, but looked like

463
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: these little moving little amibas. And somebody had taken a

464
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: microscopic picture of the sun and said, those little amibas

465
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: are the size of the state of Texas. And I

466
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: was like, oh, good God, showing how big the sun was.

467
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, Jack, there you go. That's

468
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: why you get so hot when you're outside, because the

469
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,959
Speaker 1: sun is large, and especially in Texas, we pay for that.

470
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: Do you know what happened three years ago? Last night?

471
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: So August tenth, August nine, twenty seventeen. Oh. Last night,

472
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: August ninth, we were at the Greenbrier. We were at

473
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: Carolina preseason game number one and Deshaun Watson's debut in

474
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: Charlotte in front of a ton of Clemson Jersey we fans.

475
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: That was cool. That's one of my favorite preseason games

476
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: of all time. My family was all there, but there's

477
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: a shot of my entire extended family had got Amy

478
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: had ended up getting us like eight sideline passes so

479
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: I could get like everybody down in the kind of

480
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: rotated who could go down. So it was really cool.

481
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 1: The first time I'd seen my family in like two

482
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: and a half weeks since we had been to Greenbrier.

483
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: That was fun. That was a That was a fun trip.

484
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: That was a fun trip. Mark fifteen of twenty five,

485
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy nine yards for Watson. He also

486
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,959
Speaker 1: ran for twenty four and a touchdown. Yeah, he ran

487
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,880
Speaker 1: for that touchdown. I remember him going in. I remember

488
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: we're talking about during a Remember we were talking about

489
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: during a break, the three of us, and it was like, um, boys,

490
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: we might have a pretty good one. I remember that

491
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: conversation distinctly, like, holy cow, this is gonna get really

492
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,959
Speaker 1: really exciting. Now Shawn Watson leads that offense, there's no

493
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Who leads the defense, what Anthony Weaver

494
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 1: does calling the plays, coordinating that defense to some over

495
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: unders as it pertains to that defense. Mark Vandimer, are

496
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 1: you ready? Okay? This one? Sometimes I think this one

497
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: is easier to figure out than maybe it actually is.

498
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 1: But I like this one because I think it goes

499
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: to show a can these guys stay healthy? What kind

500
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: of impact can you have across the board from various players?

501
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: Triple digit tacklers, So those those guys that end up

502
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: with one hundred or more regular season tackles, I'll do

503
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: the math for all the people out there wondering. Okay,

504
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: that's approximately six tackles. Now, that's that's solos and assists.

505
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: So that's all together to give you a frame of

506
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: reference everybody. Last year, Zach Cuttingham in sixteen games out

507
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty two, but Rodrick McKinney in fourteen

508
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: games had one hundred and one, so about seven per

509
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: Justin Reid played fifteen games, he had seventy eight tackles.

510
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: Mark with the triple digit tackler number at two push

511
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: that's what it is. Again, McKinney stand zach both over

512
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: a Hundy and that's it. Read's not gonna get to

513
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: one hundred. Seventy Eight's a lot for a safety, right,

514
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: that's good number for a safety. I mean, I know

515
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: there's some safety to get more, but boy, if your

516
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: safety is getting more than that, you probably stank because

517
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: too many people are leaking into the secondary before they

518
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: get tackled. Right, So let's just stick with this. Now,

519
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: you have two triple digit tacklers, And if I had

520
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: to say anything, I'd say under because maybe, you know,

521
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: maybe McKinney doesn't get as much, and maybe he's busy

522
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: doing something I don't know. I mean, look, tackles are

523
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: an interesting stat. If your D line got a few more,

524
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: maybe the linebackers get less. But the D line their

525
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 1: job is yeah, to get tackles, for sure, but to

526
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: also enable the linebackers to get tackles. So I think

527
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: two is a safe bet. Yeah. Last year, just at

528
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: seventy eight, DJ Reader is fourth to a team of

529
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 1: fifty two. You can knock me over fight with that now,

530
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: I've I know DJ made a lot of tackles and

531
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: he was very active for this team, But interior guys

532
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: don't typically end up fourth on your team and tackles

533
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: for the most for the most part, stereotypically, that's not

534
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: something that they usually especially got a DJ tie up blockers,

535
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 1: but he was still good at playing off blocks and

536
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: then going and finding the ball and making a play.

537
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: Jjo was fifth and Sean Gibson was fifth. They both

538
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,959
Speaker 1: had fifth and Scarlett Brent Scarlett they had fifty one.

539
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: I agree with you, I think it is a push.

540
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: I think Zach and bernardac get to one hundred. I

541
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 1: think Justin might be able to up that number a

542
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: little bit because I think with the combination of other

543
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: players at safety and mail out, Justin to do a

544
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: few more things and so he may play near the

545
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: box a little bit more. He may come down there

546
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 1: to help with Derrick Henry a little bit more. And

547
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: maybe they didn't do that as much last year because

548
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: Justin was banged up. You know, Justin had that labor

549
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: issue that he had demand he had suffered that thing

550
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: against the Troy Lyons. Enjoy practice and played with that

551
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: thing all year. I mean we saw him going out

552
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: to practice every day. He'd have a read jersey on,

553
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,919
Speaker 1: which means no contact, so he'd have contact all year.

554
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: He had seventy eight tackles in his second year with

555
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: the torm labor, which is just an amazing number to

556
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: think about and for a frame of reference. Though Mark

557
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 1: Justin Reid his first year he only started twelve games,

558
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: he had eighty eight tackles. Very busy around the line

559
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Yeah, it's that next. I mean to get

560
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: to get twelve more. Johnny is a lot let's see.

561
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: I know now and now I want to explore safety

562
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 1: tackle numbers. Anyway, we're getting a little too esoteric. Bag. Yeah,

563
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: but I think you're right. I think it is Zach

564
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: and Bmack. I think of a third guy gets in there.

565
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: I think Justin would be that guy. If he gets

566
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: the hundred tackles and gets hundred tackles, three interceptions, three sacks,

567
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: he'll go to the Pro Bowl. But I mean, I

568
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 1: just kind of threw that out there, thinking out loud, okay,

569
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: might go away. I did lie. I didn't realize I

570
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: had this one here on the offense. I do have

571
00:28:54,440 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: an offense in one here, Okay. Players pass catchers with

572
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: thirty five receptions this season or more okay for your

573
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: Houston Texans offense. Now you might want to talk to

574
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: this out and see which guys you think it might

575
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: be thirty five receptions or more. The number is five. Now,

576
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: last year we had one, two, three, four, It was

577
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: right at five. Darren Fells didn't even get to that

578
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: number and he had seven touchdowns seven of his thirty four.

579
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: That's a pretty that's very efficient. Five players is a number?

580
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: Five players last year? Hop one all four full or

581
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: forty nine? Duke Johnson forty four? Can he Stills forty?

582
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: Jordan Nakens had thirty six and that was the line.

583
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: Those five had thirty five receptions or more over under

584
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: his five for twenty twenty. What do you say? This

585
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: is a tough one. I'm gonna go over And the

586
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: reason is, look, there are a lot of things to

587
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: consider here. It's a good number. You put the number

588
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: at a good spot at thirty five because of the

589
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: fact that Fells did hang at thirty four while Aiken's

590
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 1: had thirty six. And the tight end group, I mean,

591
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: let's focus in on them for a moment here. You know,

592
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: thirty six and thirty four isn't a ton for your

593
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: top two tight ends. But they felt it felt like more. Right,

594
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: it felt like more and Fellas had the sevent tds.

595
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: But fells you know, does he take a step back

596
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: and touchdown scoring? Well, that would be nothing of a

597
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: surprise because that's the all time franchise record seven. And

598
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's gonna trend up with one player,

599
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: especially when you have Wearing coming into the fold. And

600
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: Thomas barely played last year, right and only had one catch,

601
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: but he had four tds the year before. How does

602
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: he figure in? Is he odd man out? Is he

603
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: gonna be stepping up big and be the top receiving

604
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: tight end. I mean, there's so many different questions. But

605
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: you know, the backs are gonna eat up a lot

606
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: of catches here and that might take away some of

607
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: the tight end production. But I'll go Duke and David. Okay,

608
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: I'll go at least two of the receivers, now, at

609
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: least three of the receivers, and then one of the

610
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: tight ends gets there. So um, I'll do it like that.

611
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: I'll say Sixtus Fuller, Cook's cob. I think Kenny can

612
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: still get you a number. He'll get close. I mean

613
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: he had forty last year and he only started five games.

614
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: I think both backs, which might be allot to ask,

615
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: it might be allow to ask both backs to do it,

616
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: but they're both so good at it. And Duke at

617
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 1: forty four last year. Well, I mean, if you know,

618
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: there are times where just swing routes to those guys

619
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: end up being like long toss play, so instead of

620
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: being a rush, it becomes a reception. So you've got some.

621
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: You got some of those. And also you got those

622
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: little push passes where Sean takes snapped chuck and he

623
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: just pushes forward. You know that's a completion as well.

624
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: You know Kenny Kenny had a few of those last year.

625
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: You know, Keiki had a few of those in his

626
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: rookie year. The one he the one he scored on

627
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: against Dallas, I think was that a little push pass

628
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: and that was a pass. That's how we can get

629
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: the Shawn over twenty nine touchdowns. By the way, I'm

630
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 1: changing my prediction, it's I think it's gonna be less.

631
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: It's gonna be five, and that will still be a

632
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 1: good number. Five that gets thirty five plus in verse. Okay,

633
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: So if I change, I'll change the number to four

634
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: and a half over okay, yeah, all right, all right,

635
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: that's make it easy. Yeah, I'm making it easy. Not

636
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: I'm making easy Okay, I sincerely lied to you. Um,

637
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: this one's about offense too, So we talk about defense,

638
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: except when we talk about the offense. Yeah, I saw

639
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: the words sacks and then I went, oh defense, that

640
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: saw tacklers, and I said, that's all defense. Um, it's no,

641
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: it's about Tim Kelly's offense. Sorry. Sorry, we've in twenty

642
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: eighteen the one number. If you ask me any stat

643
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's funny people ask me various stats. Some

644
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: certain stats will stick in my head, like if you

645
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: ask me, you know how many how many touchdowns guy

646
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: had or how many There are only certain things that

647
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: will stick in my head when it's when it comes

648
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: to stats for some reason. But in twenty eighteen, a

649
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: number that's stuck in everybody's head was the sack number,

650
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: and it was sixty two. Last year it was forty four.

651
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: Change of eighteen. That's a massive jump. And if you

652
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: really factored in the number of sacks that the starting

653
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: group basically gave up, I mean it's even and project

654
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 1: that over sixteen games it's even lower of a number.

655
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: So twenty twenty sixty two and twenty eighteen forty four

656
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: and twenty nineteen over under sacks allowed by the Texans

657
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, I'm putting the number at thirty one

658
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: over under, over over. I'm gonna go thirty six, thirty

659
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: five somewhere in there. And I was afraid you just

660
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: put it right there, thirty six thirty five, But thirty

661
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 1: one I'll go over. I mean, I'd love to see

662
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: it to be that or less, but I still think

663
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: that the way he plays the game, you know, he

664
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 1: doesn't want to just you know, check it down or whatever.

665
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: He wants to make a big play. And sometimes you're

666
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: gonna take some sacks. I mean, you know, I brought

667
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: this up before. I remember Drew Brees saying once in

668
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: an interview, Look I think a sack every once in

669
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: a while. Look at Roethlisberger takes some sacks. I'm not

670
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: saying this is what you really want to do, but

671
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 1: sometimes taking a sack is better than throwing a pick

672
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: or really forcing the ball in there because you waited

673
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 1: and it didn't quite happen, and now I gotta go

674
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: down and maybe I can get it back on the

675
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: next play. Because if there's anybody who can, it's number four.

676
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: So and the other guys I just mentioned Breeze and

677
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger no slouches either. So let's just say that you're

678
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna give up some sacks. But it's not

679
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 1: gonna be like last year, and it's certainly not gonna

680
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: be like twenty eighteen. You have the best line you've

681
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,760
Speaker 1: had in a long time. In a long time, Johnny.

682
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: This is the best line they've had since twenty eleven,

683
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna play like it. But I

684
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: still think that you're gonna give up some sacks. I

685
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 1: want to go back and see what they gave up

686
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 1: the year. I take that back, forty nine. What I

687
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: had the number forty four? Forty nine, but anyway to

688
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 1: put my number in perspective or yeah, forty nine being

689
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: all right, so because that was the group. Though mccarren

690
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: took five, watching had forty four, That makes sense, Okay,

691
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: the Pitts, So I'm sorry, Dannapolis Colts invariably have the

692
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: best line in the league. Is people think that across

693
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: the board, and I think the Colts, if they don't

694
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 1: have the best line, they're definitely in the team picture

695
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: in the top three to five. The Colts gave up

696
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: thirty two sacks last year. There were only eight teams

697
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: two four six, eight teams that gave up less than

698
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: thirty one. So that was bad by Vegas. Vegas needed

699
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: to set a little bit better number. It's interesting as

700
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: you look through the sacks that are given up. You know,

701
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: forty nine obviously high, it's a high number, but it's

702
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: thirteen less than last year. And in that game you

703
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: didn't have everybody going when aj was playing, but the

704
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: majority that when you look at this, if you did

705
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: kind of a median, not an average, but you just

706
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: did a median. I bet the median on this as

707
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 1: you look at it is somewhere in the forty to

708
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: forty one range, which if you gave up, like you said,

709
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: if you get thirty sacks. The Packers the forty nine

710
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: Ers both gave up thirty six sacks last year, and

711
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: the Chargers with Philip Rivers back there, who can't even move,

712
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: they go up thirty four. And we all banging the

713
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:15,760
Speaker 1: Chargers for having a pretty bad offensive line. Now, Philip

714
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: did compound that with twenty interceptions, whereas DeShawn threw. He

715
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: threw L twelve if I remember correctly, but the number

716
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: four sacks can it was a bad number set by Vegas.

717
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: I think your thirty six numbers is pretty good because

718
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: that's not quite in the that's not quite in the middle.

719
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: That's that's probably top ten. If they get to thirty six,

720
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: they're sitting about top twelve, top fourteen in the league.

721
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: And if they can cut that from forty nine to

722
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 1: thirty six, this offense is gonna be doing some things

723
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: this year. There's no there's there's no doubt in my mind.

724
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: If they can cut that thing by thirteen reps, cut

725
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 1: of thirteen last year, cut of thirteen, and cut thirteen

726
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: even more the following year, and this team is gonna

727
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: be in some tremendous thanks. Okay, Mark, I promise you

728
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: next time we'll do more defensive ones so I can

729
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: make up I will make up my mistake. Yes, but

730
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: Tim Kelly was glad to hear that conversation. I can

731
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: tell you that after talking to him last week, I

732
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: think he was happy to hear us talk about his

733
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 1: offense in such glowing terms. Now we gotta go around

734
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,440
Speaker 1: the league. There's plenty happening around the league. Teams are

735
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,760
Speaker 1: in camps and that is actually going on. It's interesting

736
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: to watch all the various team feeds. So we'll talk

737
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: about that next. And Brian Diardo wrote an article about

738
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: the three Bold Predictions for the Texans twenty twenty. This

739
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: is Whitney Merciless and you're listening to Texans Radio. Don't

740
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: touch that mercy. This is Jerry Watt. It's like this

741
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 1: Funday edition of Texans All Access Training Camp. Addition, boy,

742
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: I can't believe that we are back. This is absolutely

743
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: awesome stuff, Mark Vanimir alongside me, your host John Harris. Mark,

744
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: I mentioned this to you briefly before the show. Yeah,

745
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: Brian Yard of CBS Sports or an article about the

746
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: three Bold Predictions. Now when I read these a lot

747
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: of times, I have to sometimes say, oh my god.

748
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 1: Then I realized the word bold, so I understand where

749
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: they're I mean to make it bold. You gotta you

750
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 1: gotta step out there a little bit. So I'm at

751
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 1: you at these three and get your gut reaction on these,

752
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: because I agree wholeheartedly with one of them, one of

753
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: them I'm on the fence about, and one of them

754
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: I wholeheartedly am going the other way, So I'll hit

755
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: you with them. Number One, Deshaun Watson, even without DeAndre Hopkins,

756
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: will continue to perform at a Pro Bowl level. Your thought, uh,

757
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 1: this is bold. Yeah. I mean, look, I love I know,

758
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: I think he made Look I could talk all day

759
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 1: about DeAndre Hopkins, you know that, And I've always said

760
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: great things about him because he was great for this

761
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: franchise and made so many clutch plays. I mean it

762
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 1: goes on and on the list of his accomplishments. I'm

763
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: not even getting into numbers. There was an aura about him.

764
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 1: But Deshaun Watson is Deshaun Watson. I mean, you know

765
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 1: you just added Randall Cob, Brandon Cooks. You know, a

766
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: fuller stays healthy. You know, we talked about this all

767
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,280
Speaker 1: offseason long, the weapons, the better line or the improved

768
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: line after playing with two rookies last year and everybody together. Now, look,

769
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: this is gonna be fun. This is DeShawn Watson, not

770
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: even in his prime yet. You know he's entering year four.

771
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean year He's played two full seasons. That's it.

772
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: Everyone goes nuts because they see my homes and everything

773
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: and you feel like, well, that's who these guys, are

774
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 1: you know my homes can get better too? Can you

775
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: imagine that? But let's just take Watson Pro Bowl level, Yeah,

776
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: i'd say so. I'd say MVP level is coming now.

777
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if he wins the MVP, but MVP

778
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: caliber performance, I expect that from Deshaun Watson. Why wouldn't

779
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 1: you at this point? Why would you not expect an

780
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: MVP caliber performance from Deshaun Watson? Of course you are.

781
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 1: He's got the supporting cast to do it, and it's

782
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: gonna be fun to watch. I don't know what that

783
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: translates into, record wise. I don't know how it looks

784
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 1: when we're all said and done this season, but I'm

785
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: excited to see this thing develop. And obviously it has

786
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: to develop in a hurry because the beginning part of

787
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: the schedule's brutal. But we'll get to that. I agree,

788
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: I wholeheartedly agree with that. I've thought that for months.

789
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: I even thought it as much as it stung the

790
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: day that DeAndre was traded. I just felt like it.

791
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: This offense is into Shawn's hands and will be so

792
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 1: whoever's out there's gonna catch footballs and he's gonna continue

793
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: to throw footballs. As long as he's protected, he's gonna

794
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 1: do quite fine. Okay, Number two, Houston's defense will feature

795
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: not one, not two, but three rookies in its starting lineup. No,

796
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,439
Speaker 1: was I answering too soon for that answer right away? No?

797
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: Watch I watch your answer. I don't like that, he said.

798
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: He said, who read? Grenard and Blacklock all start? Who

799
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: got hurt? Everybody got hurt? That's not happening. Look, I

800
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: think Reid can play, and I think he will play. Actually, yeah,

801
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: I think Grenard can find a way on the field. Possibly,

802
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: but it's pretty crowded, you know. Uh, you know, I

803
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: think a lot of bodies an outside linebackers. Yeah, I mean,

804
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: there are a lot of different directions you can go.

805
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 1: But I think Grenard's gonna contribute. I think he'll get

806
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,919
Speaker 1: on the field, and I think Blacklock could start. I do,

807
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't even know about that

808
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: right away because I could see what you know, you

809
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: try out there against the Chiefs, and if you were

810
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: in base, you'd go what Dunny and Blacks and sub

811
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,240
Speaker 1: in Blacklock? Right? Who did I miss? Well against the Chiefs?

812
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:52,320
Speaker 1: You may not wells? Probably not probably nic to start,

813
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 1: Probably right, So that would probably be what imerciless and

814
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: on the inside, Angelo and Donny probably st Angelo and

815
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: Donny maybe or maybe you're gonna go, like if we're

816
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: expecting them to throw it, you know, we're gonna put

817
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: in a mena who or I don't know. We'll figure that,

818
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:07,840
Speaker 1: maybe a mena who had done a man who blacks

819
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: and maybe try and match up that way. It's gonna

820
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be interesting to see how they do it.

821
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 1: But three of them, no, not happening. I'm not happening

822
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: without Like I mean, look, if they do and everybody's healthy,

823
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 1: I'll go with that because that means they're that good.

824
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: But I don't think, you know, and not that I

825
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: don't think they're that good, but I just don't think

826
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: they're ready to take over day one. You know what

827
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,399
Speaker 1: I could see happening kind of like twenty sixteen when

828
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 1: when DJ. You know, DJ is a fifth round pick

829
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: and DJ had a very narrow, a very niche skill set,

830
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 1: if you will. He was basically there to stop the run.

831
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: So he would go out with Vince. They would stop

832
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: the run, and those two big dudes would come off

833
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 1: the field on second and third down, and they'd let

834
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 1: some rushers come on the field. And but but DJ

835
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 1: had such a niche and I could see where, you know,

836
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 1: maybe Blacklock becomes kind of that guy at the begin

837
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: you know, at the beginning of the season. Maybe he

838
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 1: does it in kind of certain situations, maybe it's pass

839
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 1: rush situations. But then he continues to evolve into a

840
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: player that can play both. He can play the run,

841
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 1: he can play the past, he can rush and get

842
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 1: some pocket presents. I could see that happening. But man

843
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: to expect that from from John Garnard on the edge

844
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: and also John reading the secondary. But that's a that's

845
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: a mufful But I'll tell you what that would come

846
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 1: out to be one heck of a draft if you

847
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 1: got three starters out of the five players you drafted. Okay,

848
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,320
Speaker 1: that leads me number three. All right, hold on to

849
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: your coffee here, Okay. Texans sign Antonio Brown to bolster

850
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: receiving corps. No, no, not yet. No, I don't think.

851
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 1: I don't think ever. I don't think ever. I don't know.

852
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 1: Eight games right games? Is the suspension right now? Now?

853
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 1: There's also civil case still going on the Big could

854
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 1: there could be more to it? Yeah, and the clock

855
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,479
Speaker 1: starts running week one. Did I read that correctly, whether

856
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 1: he's out a team or not. Yes, it starts week one. Yes,

857
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,839
Speaker 1: So you can sign a midseason he can play right away.

858
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 1: I believe that's the case. Yeah, I believe that's the case.

859
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: I think somebody's gonna sign him. Yeah, I don't I

860
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 1: think somebody is going to sign him. Now. I think

861
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 1: some of this has to do with the fact that

862
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: maybe a signing of Antonio Brown. We're in a COVID world,

863
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, do you trust him outside the build? I mean,

864
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that go into it.

865
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 1: But there's gonna be some desperate team that says, you

866
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: know what, we just lost this guy. We're gonna lose

867
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: this guy for three or four weeks, you know, due

868
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: to injury. Hey, we've got a shot here with the talent.

869
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: We gotta go out and get Antonio Brown. And then

870
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 1: we've just got to put him in our locker room.

871
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 1: We trust our locker room. And now that's what a

872
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: lot of people say, do you trust the Texas locker room?

873
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: And I do, but I don't know that I trust

874
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. I just feel like, if you have relative

875
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: health from Cooks and Cob and Fuller and Stills. We

876
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,879
Speaker 1: just ask him a lot. You still have Isaiah Coulter

877
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 1: as a rookie. I just don't know that Antonio Brown

878
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: makes the most ends, to be honest. That's our Simmons too, Johnny. Yeah,

879
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Simmons, who I love, especially as a special teams guy.

880
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 1: If one of these undrafted guys is gonna make it,

881
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 1: I won't be surprised if it's Tyler Simmons because of

882
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,839
Speaker 1: what he gives you in special teams. When you guys

883
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 1: see him on special teams, he's he's a monster. He

884
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: can't catch the ball that well. I wish you'd caught

885
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: it better. If he did, I'd really make a push

886
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,800
Speaker 1: from his receiver. A special teams guy. H Tyler Simmons

887
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 1: has definitely got to watch Mark. We gotta cut it there.

888
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: We got plenty for you tomorrow as we continue to

889
