So unfortunately, Travis Johnson not gonna be on 15 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: every week. Maybe we'll bring him back another week, but 16 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: we'll have a player every single week. 17 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 3: Listen, every time I hear him, I think maybe he 18 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 3: needs to be on every week, right, And he used 19 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 3: to be on Mondays and twenty thirteen Monday nights. He 20 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 3: did that six to seven hour with me all the 21 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 3: time during a very difficult season. I'll always be grateful 22 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 3: for Travis Johnson for that. He did an amazing job 23 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: and it was a tough season and he was awesome 24 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 3: to work with all year long. 25 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: Well now we get into Texans All Access, although I 26 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: gotta say only thirteen season you did that with Travis 27 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: and then on Tuesdays we had the Player Show from 28 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: Texans Grill with Antonio Smith, my all time favorite and 29 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: I think he's my all time favorite because it was 30 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: such a tough season. 31 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,839 Speaker 2: He's we laughed so hard. 32 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 4: He is a gem. What a gem? I mean total 33 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 4: jem people. There's a lot of folks. 34 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 5: In this building right now who have no idea who 35 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 5: he is, noa the turnover, and it's been a decade now. 36 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 3: Well a lot of those guys and you know, they 37 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 3: don't know what they don't know. A lot of people 38 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 3: in our media department, digital media, social media when they 39 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 3: see the old stuff like on the Nose or the 40 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: Ninja Assassin or whatever, they don't know and they're thinking, wow, 41 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 3: you guys had all that we did and there was 42 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 3: a lot of success on the field and hoping to 43 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 3: get it back to that level. I think the personalities 44 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 3: in place right now are really cool with this version 45 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 3: of the Houston Texans, and they will flourish, they will develop, 46 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: but you know, it's a process going to develop on 47 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 3: the field, off the field, all of it. 48 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think ten years from now will be 49 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: talking about some of the guys on this team now 50 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: on the personalities that we have. Damian Pierce was a 51 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: season premiere, which was the big fundraiser for the Houston 52 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: Texans Foundation. 53 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 2: We did it here on the stadium floor. Mark was 54 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 2: the MC. 55 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: I was doing some stuff on the red carpet, and 56 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 1: Damian Pierce was the player reporter. I think we'll have 57 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: a recap video coming up very soon. If not, it's 58 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: definitely gonna be on Texans three sixty Saturday night, eleven 59 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: PM on ABC thirteen. I've clearly worked with Mark long 60 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: enough to know how to pub my show, promote my shows. 61 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: But Damian Pierce is on the red carpet and he 62 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: was interviewing all the guys and asking them about their 63 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: fashion and everything. 64 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: I feel like. 65 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 4: He's, you know, just a natural. He's just such a micah. 66 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: Although I did say, you don't see me lining up 67 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: in the backfield trying to take your job, like here 68 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: you are with a microphone trying to take mine. 69 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 2: But he was fantastic. He's always so much fun. 70 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: SOP DP and DP DPTV. 71 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: We get dent Tel Perryman into because they'll do it. 72 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: We're a lot of dps now and everyone's a talker. 73 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: So all right, so you guys are not here for 74 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 1: all of huddle, But we were talking about the Ravens game, 75 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: obviously the big game coming up this week, So let's 76 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: just start there with Texans all access the big headlines 77 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: for the week. 78 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: Where should we start. 79 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: I think the fact that they opened the season it's 80 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 3: such a difficult place. That's what pops out to me. 81 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: It's not just the opener, it's not just CJ. Stroud 82 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: and numerous Texans making their debut, young and a little 83 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 3: bit more seasoned, but it's where you're going. It's playing 84 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson, the former MVP in his house. All that 85 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 3: the Ravens have accomplished, I think in some ways, I 86 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: don't want to call them overrated, but their accomplishments over 87 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: the last decade. Look, they've won one playoff game since 88 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: twenty fourteen. But in the regular season they are dynamite. 89 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: They are really tough to deal with at their place, 90 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: and they're going to be a tough team to beat 91 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 3: for everybody, and especially for this young team. 92 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 5: Now you bring up the last decade. Texans have never 93 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 5: won there in their history. So we're going back twenty 94 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 5: some years. They've never won in Baltimore. You've only beaten 95 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 5: that franchise twice. That was here in twelve and then 96 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,839 Speaker 5: again fourteen. But there was a guy, two guys really 97 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 5: here in fourteen that are here again in John Weeks 98 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 5: in case Keenum, Case Keenum did not throw a touchdown 99 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 5: pass in that game. You got a touchdown pass from 100 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 5: Arian Foster to CJ. Fedorowitz, but it was that and 101 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 5: a bunch of Randy bullockfield goals. You got a mighty, 102 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 5: mighty task in front. And I know you're gonna get 103 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 5: into this. We're gonna get into this a little later. 104 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 5: But it's a matchup of unknowns on both sides because 105 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 5: you don't know much about this new offense that's getting 106 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 5: rave reviews and rave question marks with the Ravens. But 107 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 5: then again, they don't know really what film to study 108 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 5: defensively of the Texans, And it's to a lesser degree certainly, 109 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 5: but yeah, there's a lot of it's a matchup of unknowns, 110 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 5: and that's certainly the case in Week one, no matter what. 111 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 5: But it's even more amplified because of the changes that 112 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 5: they've both made franchise wide that. 113 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: Playing up in that stadium in Baltimore. I was listening 114 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: to Nick Cassario this morning on with Sean Pennergast and 115 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: Seth Payne and Drew and I. We used to love 116 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: going into these press boxes and doing our own little 117 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: critique of the location. 118 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 5: And the story four hours before the game because there's 119 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 5: nobody there except for a few attendants and we walk 120 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 5: in and we just basically it's like an HGTV show. Yes, Oh, 121 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 5: I like the spaciousness of this one. 122 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: Chairs are a little low. 123 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, So Drew and I would do that, and I 124 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: love I love the location that press box because it's. 125 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 2: Like fifty yard line. You're not that high up. 126 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: You're in the lower level. Like they could sell that 127 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: for a premium if those were seats. But Nick Casara 128 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: was talking about it this morning and how he from 129 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: the coaches vantage point, how that those seats you're really 130 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: low to the ground and all the fans can turn 131 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: around and mock you during the game. We talked about 132 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: taking a beating a few times, as you know, when 133 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: he was with the Patriots and now not having super 134 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: fun memories and how the fans would sort of turn 135 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: around and mock them while they were in the press. 136 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 3: They know they're there too, the New England. It happens 137 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: with the broadcast both, and you know they look back 138 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 3: at us and like, you don't have Tom Riady on 139 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 3: your team. He's the best quarterback ever and you're hearing 140 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 3: it from those fans all game long. And the Ravens 141 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: the broadcast booth, I guess it's the same level because 142 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: it feels low as I recall it at BALTI feel like. 143 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 2: It's probably a few doors down, but in the same level. 144 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 4: Nice. 145 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 3: It's a nice booth. I mean, I got to say, 146 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 3: it's a huge boot. They take good care of us. 147 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 3: But you're right, never won there. That's tough. 148 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 5: Phenomenal food in that press box. Phenomenal food, crabcake, crabcakes. 149 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: I was like, it was something delicious, like one of. 150 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: Those Ross Tucker reviews of the press box food. 151 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: We could Drew and I could totally do a blog 152 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: because we literally critique everything. But if if you do 153 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: talk to Nick, you have to tell him that I 154 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: spoke with the Baltimore Ravens team reporter. 155 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: They're moving the press box the next year. 156 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: Not Now, what are they going to do? They're it's 157 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 3: going to be. 158 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: All like Tampa Bay. Do you remember in Tampa Bay 159 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: in the corner. 160 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's the bananas Foster speaking of press box food. 161 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: That's a huge spread. 162 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 3: Normal. See that just stinks because you need to tell Nick. 163 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 3: I'm gonna get on my soapbox now. But all right, 164 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 3: I know the radio announcer for the Ravens whose name 165 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 3: is unfortunately Jerry Sandusky Jerry with a G, and he'll 166 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: be on later this week with us. But he is 167 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 3: a radio activist, so he's going to be complaining. I 168 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: was going to use another word about them moving the 169 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 3: broadcast boots and the press box radio. 170 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 4: Look, why when you move. 171 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 3: TV, why don't you move TV, mister NFL team person, Well, 172 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: the TV people need to be there. I'm like, well, 173 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 3: don't the radio people need to see it too? No, 174 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 3: we don't need to see it. We can be in 175 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 3: the corner because it's just radio. No, we need to 176 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 3: actually see it too. How about that? I would say 177 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 3: that the writers need to see it less than the 178 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 3: broadcast people, because we are actually describing the action as 179 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 3: it occurs. But don't get me started. 180 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: Do you still need your binoculars? 181 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 3: I always need my binoculars. I always use them no 182 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 3: matter what the situation is because I feel like I 183 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 3: want to get right in there. There's very few spots, 184 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 3: you know. One of them, though, I went to a 185 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 3: game at Aggie Land. We can talk about this later. 186 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 3: I went to my first Aggie game in years, and 187 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 3: it was really cool to be there, and I thought 188 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 3: I had really good seats Aggie Land. Everybody's right on 189 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 3: top of the field. 190 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 5: You know. 191 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: I'm still in an upper deck in a club level 192 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 3: on the shady side, thank goodness. But I felt like 193 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 3: I could still see it, like I could actually call 194 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: that game without binoculars. But an answer to your question, 195 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: I always use binoculars. 196 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, well next year you're definitely gonna have to 197 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: use binoculars. 198 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 5: Because one of my favorite press box experiences all time 199 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 5: with a fan was in the playoff game at Baltimore. 200 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 5: Didn't end up great, but right before the playoff game started, 201 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 5: one of my friends who I was a sports anchor 202 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 5: at the Fox affiliate in Lubbock. This guy was a 203 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 5: sports anchor at the ABC affiliate in Lubbock and he 204 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 5: has since gone on to CNN. His name is Andy Schulz. 205 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 5: He does a sports at CNN and but he's from Houston, 206 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 5: massive Houston Texans fan. He was a Rockets ball boy 207 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 5: back in the day, but pregame, he knows being in 208 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 5: the media, knows where the press box is. He has 209 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 5: on a jacket and there was a cold day in 210 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 5: one of those stocking caps and he he saw me 211 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 5: in the press box before I saw him. And he 212 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 5: gets right up against the glass, bangs on the glass, opens. 213 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,239 Speaker 4: Up his jerty's jacket. He's got a battle red. 214 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 5: Andre Johnson jersey on and he's like yelling, going and 215 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 5: it's like you can't hear anything. You'd share the ding 216 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 5: tink on the glass and he's probably going at like 217 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 5: four thousand decibels, but it's just like sound perfect and 218 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 5: he's going bananas. 219 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, So it's fun. 220 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 3: Do you guys like being reporters when they don't open 221 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 3: the windows? They don't know open the windows here of 222 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 3: the press box either right, you can't or they don't. 223 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 3: I think they can, but they don't. 224 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: They can't. But now they're TVs, they're TV's installed by 225 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 2: the way the windows, so I think you can't. I 226 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 2: don't think. I think since they've opened him last. 227 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 4: I don't. 228 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 5: I don't mind it being open because it's kind nice. 229 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 5: When the Saints in the Saints game the other day, 230 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 5: you know, there's some fun plays and I could go. 231 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: Whoa, but it didn't know, nobody would hear you if. 232 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 4: The windows have been closed. 233 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: Right for fans who don't know, most press box windows 234 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 3: are closed, and you're not supposed to cheer in the 235 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 3: press box. 236 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 4: And I wasn't cheering, but right, but if. 237 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 3: The Texans make a big play, you're not supposed to 238 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: say yes, no way, right, even. 239 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 4: The nicest but. 240 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: That press box though, I could have all I could say, 241 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 1: talk to you. We'd be right next to each other, 242 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 1: and I can't hear you. 243 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it gets really loud. Yeah, when the windows are open, 244 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: you can't even hear yourself. 245 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 5: In the regular it was okay that they didn't have 246 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 5: it was regular season. 247 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't hear it. 248 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: We played Week. 249 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: One there right after and yeah, and Kenny stills the 250 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: game speaking of Laramie Tunsil. One of the headlines, obviously 251 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: the old line for the Texas Sunday's game. What's going 252 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: to happen? I guess we shall find out. But Titus 253 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: Howard day to day, according to the head coach Tamiko 254 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: Ryan's yesterday, he was out at practice, not really sure 255 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: what his status is going to be for Sunday's game. 256 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: But if he comes back, where would he play? 257 00:10:59,080 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 4: When he right? 258 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: But what do you play guard? Where would he? Where 259 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 2: would he go? 260 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 3: This is important to to regulate and calibrate. Really, calibrate 261 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 3: is a better word. The Demico Ryan's injury translator. Right, Oh, 262 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 3: we don't know his terminology yet, you don't we knew 263 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 3: the koobiak one. He's got a foot, he's got an ankle, 264 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 3: he's he's okay. Well, Bill O'Brien, for instance, he's gonna 265 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 3: miss some time. If that's missed sometime comes out that 266 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 3: that's a that's a long it's weeks, right, miss sometime. 267 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: But O'Brien saying it's not life threatening might be a 268 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: week or less possible if he says it's not life threatening, 269 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 3: that's what he would say. For Demiico to say, day 270 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 3: to day, I'm curious. I'm gonna see how Titus ends up, 271 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 3: and if Titus plays, I'm gonna know what day to 272 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 3: day means. Day to day now we're all day to day, right, 273 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 3: so it could have a lot of latitude there, but 274 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: I'm monitoring and I will have updates weekly on the 275 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 3: Demico Ryan's injury translator. 276 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go out on a limb and say we 277 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: might see him in week one, just because in camp 278 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,119 Speaker 1: a lot of times Mik o'ryans would say he's making progress, 279 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: he's headed in the right direction. Yeah, So I feel like, 280 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: but unless it's regular season now and now it's a 281 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: whole new translator and we don't want to give out. 282 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 3: Anything, I think it could be. 283 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 5: I just thought it was a big deal a couple 284 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 5: of weeks ago when Titus Howard had pads on and 285 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 5: was out there of practice, because that was a bit 286 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 5: of a surprise to some folks seeing that. So I 287 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 5: think weeks ago seeing that kind of bodes well for 288 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 5: him playing. And then just to add on to y'allost 289 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 5: Bill O'Brien aspect of things, my favorite part of Bill 290 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 5: O'Brien and injuries was when a reporter would say X 291 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 5: player said that my player is actually doing pretty well, 292 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 5: And a lot of times that X player was either 293 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 5: Jadeveon Clowney or DJ Swerringer, which you knew it like 294 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 5: on the inside was immolating, Yeah, just furious, and he 295 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 5: would respond with something like, oh well, doctor Swerringer said 296 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 5: that I loved it when he called a player doctor 297 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 5: that that meant clown you just you, You've you've got 298 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 5: a gold plated doghouse that you're in with h O'Brien and. 299 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: That well, speaking of dog plated gold houses or gold 300 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: plated doghouses, a dog. 301 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: Plated gold well, it could be the same thing. 302 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: And doctor Clowney will be facing him or the textans I. 303 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 3: Can't believe we're going to see doctor Clowney. 304 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: Doctor Clowney. 305 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 3: I don't like this at all. 306 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 5: Still a Houstonian lives in the city, but he's uh 307 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 5: playing for the Ravens. 308 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: I am looking forward to that injury report on Wednesday 309 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 3: as much as I've looked forward to a lot of 310 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 3: things in my life. I really want to see who's 311 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 3: got what what they're listed as. And I know a 312 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 3: lot of it's questionable and you're not going to know anyway, 313 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 3: but both teams. I want to see this because I've 314 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 3: got a feeling the Ravens have some things up their sleeve, 315 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: meaning secrets up their sleeve and not good ones. They're 316 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: they're kind of holding things back from the media, and 317 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 3: that injury report has to be It's not always a 318 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 3: direct revelation of things, but it does give you some ideas. 319 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 3: By the way, if you google doctor Clowney, you get 320 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 3: a lot of doctor Clowney's in the country. There are 321 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 3: doctor Clowns and not Jadevion. 322 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 2: The picture of Jadevion with scraps. 323 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,959 Speaker 1: Now, well, you know, we started off talking about the 324 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: O line, but I think for speaking of your injury report, 325 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: I think it'll be interesting to see the Ravens their 326 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: cornerback situation. Yeah, no, Moreland Humphrey, you had a foot injury, 327 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: is gonna be out for a few games. But they've 328 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: just had a lot of injuries there, So I mean, 329 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. Does that bode well for the Texans 330 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: wide receivers. 331 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: Can we read into that. 332 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 3: I'd rather have Lamar Jackson retire than any of that. 333 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 2: I don't care about the cars. 334 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 3: I'll take whatever I can get as far as Ravens 335 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 3: injuries here to make life a little bit easier for 336 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 3: this Houston offense. Because the Texans offensive line is the 337 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 3: thing that we have to be concerned about here. Let's 338 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 3: say Titus can go. If Titus can go, you have 339 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 3: shack Titus Laramie good. Okay, And we don't know how 340 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: they're going to put together center and guard apart from 341 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 3: those three. But maybe Patterson, who played a bunch against 342 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: the Saints, maybe they do something else. Maybe they bring 343 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 3: up Deeter, May they bring up Peter to play guard. 344 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 3: I don't know how they're gonna hand. 345 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 4: Maybe Josh Jones gets slid in there line. 346 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: I would think he's got a shot to do it. 347 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 3: He's capable of it. And they have to put their 348 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 3: best five on the field. No matter how they set 349 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: it up. You can't afford to get well. Titus has 350 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 3: to play tackle because he's a tackle. If you think 351 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: Josh Jones is going to be better at tackle than guard, 352 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: but Titus can handle guard, you might have to make 353 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 3: that move right here if Titus is available. I'm just 354 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 3: assuming that for this conversation. I was joking last week 355 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 3: you could do a contest guess the Texans offensive line 356 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 3: starters and maybe get insurance on that deal and give 357 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 3: away a nice prize because it's gonna be tough for 358 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 3: a lot of people to guess what the Texans offensive 359 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 3: line is going to be come Sunday at noon. 360 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: And I think there's a really good chance that you're 361 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: gonna have some starters that have not suited up in 362 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: a Texans uniform yet through preseason. Oh yeah, at all, right, 363 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: Like Josh Jones, obviously he was at it right, traded 364 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: for here in camp. 365 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: Did not did he play? He has not played. 366 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 3: No, Titus hasn't played, Josh Jones. What about Titus has 367 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 3: he Did he play against New England? 368 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 4: No? Out? 369 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 5: Remember, Okay, Titus was gone within that first week of 370 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 5: training camp. 371 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 4: It was early. 372 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm. 373 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: Talking about guys that have not been with the Texans. 374 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, new players, new faces. We saw Dieter against 375 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints, which is that was kind of 376 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: the beginning of the end for Kenyon Green when you 377 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: saw him come in with the ones and then Kenyon 378 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: backing him up, and then obviously Kenyon we know he's 379 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: now done for the year. 380 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 3: I mean, if Kenyan had played well in that game 381 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: and didn't aggravate something his shoulder because he grabbed his 382 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 3: shoulder clearly after that. 383 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: He was also playing with the twos, which was a 384 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: bit worse I mean, that. 385 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 3: Was definitely a sign of things perhaps, but man, I 386 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 3: would welcome him playing well in that game and just 387 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: rising back up through the depth chart. He's got the 388 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: ability to do it. But he's on IR now after 389 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 3: the season, and you want him to get healed up 390 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 3: and ready as possible for twenty twenty. 391 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: Four and then at the center position. 392 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: So j scrugs ir, Yeah, obviously, Scott question and Mary, ir, 393 00:16:58,920 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: what happens there? 394 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 2: Do you bring up Jimmy Morrissey, I think the squad. 395 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 3: Dieter Morrissey, Patterson. You could go, I think Patterson's the likeliest, 396 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,719 Speaker 3: but you could also say Kendrick Well, I don't know. 397 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 3: He played a bunch against the Saints, and maybe that's 398 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: just the way they go. Maybe they don't like it. 399 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 3: Maybe they go Kendrick Green who did it in Pittsburgh. 400 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 3: But he's only been here for a couple of weeks. 401 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 3: So how do you handle that? This is this is 402 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 3: a mystery. That's why I say you could run a 403 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 3: contest here. Who's going to start on the offensive line. 404 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,719 Speaker 3: I can give you Laramie and Shack for sure, and 405 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 3: Titus I'm hoping. But after the other two spots, there's 406 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 3: a lot of mystery and if it, if Titus is there, 407 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 3: then it's just just those two, just forty percent of 408 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 3: your own line. But I think that they can work 409 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 3: this out. You do have prep, you have practice, You 410 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 3: can get ready for it. You get ready for the 411 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 3: noise as best you can. C. J. Stroud, Captain Stroud 412 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 3: has to be ready for anything against the. 413 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 4: Regle of your memories. 414 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 5: How do you feel going into week one with this 415 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 5: offensive line and the question marks versus how you felt 416 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 5: going into week one one twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen with 417 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 5: those offensive lines. Keep in mind, in twenty seventeen, Dwayne 418 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 5: Brown was holding out, Yeah, and you had the rest 419 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 5: of that crew, and then in twenty eighteen Dwayne was gone. 420 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 3: In twenty seventeen, I underestimated Jacksonville. I thought, oh, it's Jacksonville. 421 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: You should be okay. On opening day, you're starting Tom Savage, 422 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: you should be all right. Twenty eighteen set the stage 423 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 3: for me O line wise. 424 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 4: In twenty eighteen when like Julian Davenport. 425 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you didn't have Laramie yet. The next year 426 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,199 Speaker 3: you didn't have Dwayne anymore obviously, So yeah, twenty eighteen 427 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: and I was thinking of the twenty eighteen opener the 428 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 3: other day for this reason. Remember the first was it 429 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 3: the first snap where they fumbled? Were the first? I 430 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 3: think it was at New England and you fumble and 431 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 3: you give Tom Brady the ball at the twenty basically ouch. 432 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 3: You know, you have to avoid colossal mistakes early in 433 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 3: the at any time in this game. But if you 434 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 3: can get the operations smooth, get it to Pierce, let's Stroud, 435 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 3: make some easy ish easy for me to say, throws Schultz, Pierce, 436 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 3: you know, Niko over the middle, get a little bit 437 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: of that going, play some good d Look that's the 438 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 3: recipe here, and you got to find a way to 439 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: generate takeaways. 440 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, CJ. 441 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: Stratt, We were talking about this on the Players show 442 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: Who They Who? 443 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: Did? Travis and Indie. 444 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: Think we're gonna be the sort of the weapons to 445 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: stand up where they show one. 446 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 2: So Travis is really excited about Tank Dell has gotta. 447 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 4: Be, Yeah, gotta be. 448 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: They were asking me and then and and Indy wanted 449 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: to know, aside from from Tank, who else I was 450 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: excited about because and we both sort of talked about 451 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz for that reason. 452 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 2: He's sort of the veteran guy. 453 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 1: I think Stroud even talked about how he's someone that 454 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: he's been able to really lean on and build some chemistry. 455 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 2: I think they worked out in the off season together 456 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 2: out in l A. Noah Brown is interesting, is. 457 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Interesting as an option because we saw him make some catches, 458 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: and yeah, you think of Nico and and and Damian Pierce. 459 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: I mean, are we gonna are we gonna run the 460 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: ball a little bit more with Damien Because you say. 461 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 5: We're listening off all these pass catchers, I think you 462 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 5: gotta be excited about just run game as al. You 463 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 5: saw what Pierce was able to do last year, and 464 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 5: you presume that this offensive system is better on the whole, 465 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 5: and it's going to be better running the ball well, 466 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 5: that bodes really well for a guy who was kind 467 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 5: of having to make a lot of his yards by 468 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 5: himself last year. 469 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 4: That's exciting. 470 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 5: And then you mix in Singletary, maybe even you sprinkle 471 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 5: in a little bit of Mike Boone, who man, he 472 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 5: looked good in the preseason. He could and he's done 473 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 5: some nice things in his career with Denver catches the ball, 474 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 5: well runs the ball. I mean, I think you got 475 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 5: a factor in the run game as a big X factor, 476 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 5: as a big thing that you want to look for, because, hey, 477 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 5: you're going to live and die without with this run game. 478 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 5: If this run game isn't going, you're in trouble. And 479 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 5: I think it's not going to be. I think it's 480 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 5: going to be much much better than what we've seen 481 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 5: around here in a long time. 482 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 3: You still need some balance, obviously, and I know you're 483 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 3: not saying you don't, because if I'm Baltimore, I'm thinking, 484 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 3: just overwhelm the line of scrimmage, right, make Stroud beat you. 485 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: He's a rookie, he's in a hostile environment. They're going 486 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 3: to try to make Stroud eat them some way, somehow. 487 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,439 Speaker 3: They're going to load up against Pierce. Pierces the You know, 488 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: Laramie is probably the best offensive player. Pierce is right 489 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 3: there with him as far as the threat goes. Obviously, 490 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 3: different position and different impact, but Pierce can have a 491 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 3: lot of impact if he's able to get some yak here, 492 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 3: get a little crack of daylight, get him going. All right, 493 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 3: there's your recipe. You're starting to move the ball a 494 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: little bit on the ground. Pierce Straut makes a good thrower. 495 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 3: Two maybe a big play to tank or two or 496 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 3: more and then you're off and running. You know, you 497 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 3: got to play clean though the times the Texans have 498 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 3: lost up there, I mean, I think about the playoff 499 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,479 Speaker 3: game with the four turnovers. I think about earlier that 500 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 3: season with just a sloppy game. And didn't the Ninja 501 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 3: we were just talking about him earlier. Didn't you have 502 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 3: like I think, two fifteen yard penalties in that twenty 503 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 3: eleven regular season game up. 504 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 5: There against the goal line, like the Texans were backed 505 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 5: up against their own goal line. Yeah, Vonte Leach was 506 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 5: giving the ball I think on consecutive plays because it 507 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 5: was his first game against his old team and the 508 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,239 Speaker 5: text and they stonewalled. They didn't the didn't let Leach in. 509 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 5: But Antonio Smith had a couple of those fifteen yard 510 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 5: personal fouls. 511 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: Twenty thirteen pick sixth Matt shab also. Didn't they have 512 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 3: a return for a touchdown or something in that game? 513 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 3: I don't know, Maybe I'm misremembering that. Maybe I remember 514 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 3: pick six. It was just a sloppy, not a good game, 515 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 3: let's just put it. 516 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: Not a blowout, but not you were never close either. 517 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 3: I was talking about it. In fact, we're going to 518 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 3: have it on matchup tonight with Johnny five. Even I 519 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 3: remember that disastrous season, You're right in it. Kyle Bowler 520 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 3: hits three passes in a row to get him in 521 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: a field goal range and they win the game like that. 522 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 3: And they weren't having a good year either at the time. 523 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 3: So it's been a house of horrors to an extent 524 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 3: for the Houston Texans, and as you mentioned, Drew never 525 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 3: having one up there. But look, you rip off the 526 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 3: band aid and then get ready for a Week two 527 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 3: no matter what happens, win or lose. 528 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 2: I think it's kind of nice to face Baltimore in 529 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 2: Week one. 530 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar Jackson has not played all preseason, missed 531 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: the end of last year with injury. Then you get him, 532 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: you've got a bunch of new weapons. While good, they've 533 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: not played any of their starters in the preseason. Mark 534 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: Andrews has been sort of banged up. I think he 535 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: returned back to practice today or this week. But they 536 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: don't really have that chemistry. You know they're gonna be 537 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: a good team, you know they're gonna have a firepower offense, 538 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: but maybe you. 539 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 2: Get them early before they've really started. 540 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: Clicking, and you just hope that with a heavy dose 541 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: of Damian Pierce on the ground, you can control the 542 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: time of position, so you don't give the ball to 543 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, and you protect, you protect the ball, don't 544 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: turn it over as well. So I mean, I think 545 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: that if you're gonna play them, I'd rather play them 546 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: now than say December. Not that you know playing them 547 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: is going to be easy by any stretch of the means, 548 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 1: but that both Travis and Dy had a lot to 549 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 1: say about this Texans defense going up against Lamar Jackson. 550 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 2: So let's take a break. 551 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: When we come back, let's talk about this Texans defense, 552 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: Undardmiko Ryans. We got more previewing the Baltimore Ravens, and 553 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: then of course later on we're gonna go around the NFL. 554 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 2: That's all coming up on Texans All Access. 555 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: Welcome back, Texans All Access. Texans up at ball to more. 556 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: Demiko Ryans makes his debut as head coach. 557 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 4: CJ. 558 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: Strad Will Anderson all playing their first NFL games. And 559 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: you know, we were talking with the guys earlier, Travis 560 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: and Indy, they're both super excited about this D line 561 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: going against Lamar Jackson. They love this attack, pin your 562 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 1: ears back style of defense. They feel like there can 563 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: be a lot of pressure on Lamar Jackson, not giving 564 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: him a lot of time, and they can sort of 565 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: contain him so that he's not able to scramble or 566 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: make plays and you'll have to. 567 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 2: Get the ball out quick. 568 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: But they really like this style of defense, and they 569 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: feel like if you can get a guy like Will 570 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: Anderson on Lamar that that could be really effective in 571 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: containing him. 572 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: On Sunday, I wanted to get your thoughts on that. 573 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 3: I think it's part of the mix. You need a 574 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 3: lot of guys, right, yeah, I mean, well, love Anderson 575 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 3: just devour Lamar Jackson time and time again. I think 576 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 3: Grenard's gonna have to get in the mix. I think 577 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 3: you're gonna have to send extra people. You're gonna have 578 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 3: to send Petrie into the backfield occasionally trip up that 579 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 3: running game with Dobbins and Edwards and all that gang. 580 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 3: Because these guys, I believe they'll look at the Texans 581 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 3: and say, let's run the ball. Let's try to run 582 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 3: the ball. Look at them last year. I know they 583 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 3: have different players, but every team wants to do it. It 584 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 3: makes life easy, makes life easier on Lamar Jackson as well. 585 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 3: We don't want to see Lamar Jackson run it that 586 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 3: much if we don't have to, because that's risky. Right, 587 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 3: He's gotten hurt a bunch, so let's try to run 588 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 3: the ball and soften them up for the pass plays 589 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 3: that it'll hit to Mark Andrews and OBJ and all 590 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 3: of that other stuff. It's going to be really interesting 591 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 3: to see what kind of Lamar Jackson you get. Is 592 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,479 Speaker 3: there any rust at all? He hasn't played in the preseason. Obviously, 593 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 3: he's practiced, got hurt down the stretch last year year 594 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 3: before as well. This is a real big moment for him. 595 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 3: A lot of eyes on him to see how he 596 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 3: responds signing the big contract. Here he is in front 597 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: of the home fans. 598 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 5: I can't wait. I'm keeping my eyes on Willie Anderson Junior. 599 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 5: And when I say keeping my eyes on that's usually 600 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 5: it's like a throwaway line. It's just like, yeah, that 601 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 5: guy's good. Literally starting her out mid to December of 602 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 5: twenty eleven. JJ Watt was a guy when the Texans 603 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,959 Speaker 5: were on defense, you would just sort of look at 604 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 5: what he was doing, and he was always whipping, you know, 605 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 5: his man in front of him, and that was the 606 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 5: case for the next seven eight years while he was here. 607 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 4: In the same fashion. 608 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 5: It's been fun in the preseason when Willy Anderson has 609 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 5: played to keep your eyes on what he does, and 610 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 5: to keep your eyes on him in practice because he's 611 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 5: it's like a hand grenade goes off. I mean, just 612 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 5: all sorts of havoc is reeked when he's out there. 613 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 5: You said it perfectly, Mark. After one practice there was 614 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 5: a practice where Anderson kind of got a day's rest 615 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 5: and he wasn't out there. Well, the Texans offense looked 616 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 5: really really good that day, looked really really improved that 617 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 5: day because he wasn't in the backfield, Cavin in the 618 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 5: offensive line all practice long. So when I say I'm 619 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 5: going to keep my eyes on him, I'm literally going 620 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 5: to lockdown and I'm making binocular motions. 621 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 4: With my hands right now. 622 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 5: Yeah three, I'm literally gonna watch what he does against 623 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 5: the guy or guys who are blocking him. 624 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, Tamiko, Ryan's the challenge of him coaching this 625 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 3: defense along with Matt Burke against Lamar Jackson. Whatever they 626 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 3: have planned, it's got to be something special, right, But 627 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 3: maybe they just play their system. I don't know. They 628 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 3: just have to be ready for it because he is 629 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 3: what I call a one man draw play when you 630 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 3: or maybe one man play action is a better way 631 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 3: to put it, Lamar Jackson. The linebackers have to respect 632 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: the run, so when he goes back to pass, it's 633 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 3: are you gonna run it or not? And then you know, 634 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 3: before you know it, Andrews is beating you and he 635 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 3: has an easy layup kind of passed to Andrews. The 636 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 3: year that Texans got blown out up there with Deshaun 637 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 3: Watson twenty nineteen, it was a thirty four point loss. 638 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 3: I mean, Jackson threw four touchdown passes. He ran it 639 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 3: for seventy something as well. It was a nightmare to 640 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 3: deal with. And that was a pretty good Texans team 641 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 3: that eventually would have a lead in a divisional playoff game. 642 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 3: But we don't have to get into that right now. Yeah, sorry, 643 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 3: too soon? 644 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: Hey that the Ravens season didn't end all that great 645 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: either of that year. No, it didn't the last time 646 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: they had this level of excitement, I think because they 647 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: lost in. 648 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: The wildcard round. 649 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: They were going to host, they were rolling. 650 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 2: The top seed, they were in a top seed they 651 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 2: lose to the time. 652 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: They lost it to the divisional round because they had 653 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 3: to buy and then the Titans were coming off the 654 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 3: win over New England, went into Baltimore and won. There 655 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 3: was a hell of a post. 656 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 5: Ravens type going forward on fourth down in that game. 657 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 5: I mean, I think they had like four failed fourth 658 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 5: down conversions or more. 659 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 3: Maybe they couldn't believe it. They couldn't believe it. So 660 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 3: the Tennessee d was playing really well, but that offensive 661 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: formula of Derrick Henry and Tannehill play action was working. 662 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 3: Wonders can you get that going with Pierce? Can you 663 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 3: find a way to hold out of the ball finish drives? Look, 664 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 3: I'd rather have sevens and threes every day of the week, 665 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 3: but look, connect on a field goal or two. Just 666 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 3: keep going, keep the ball away from him if you 667 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 3: possibly can. Can't wait. 668 00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, So since then, the Ravens had have one in 669 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: the wild card against the Titans in twenty twenty, and 670 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: then they lost the Bills, and then last year they 671 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: lost to the Bengals. So not a lot of success 672 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: since twenty nineteen. 673 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 3: So the only playoff win they have since twenty fourteen 674 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 3: is that victory over the Titans in twenty twenty. 675 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 2: In twenty fourteen, they also beat the Steelers. 676 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that was the last time they won a 677 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 3: playoff game until twenty twenty. So since twenty fourteen, the 678 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 3: Texans have won how many playoff games? One? Two or two? 679 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: That's it. But the Ravens have only won once. And 680 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 3: it's a weird thing. That's why. Look, I'm never gonna 681 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 3: call them overrated back, but postseason success has failed. It 682 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 3: just hasn't worked out for them. You know, Lamar's rookie 683 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 3: year was what it was. They were struggling with Flacco. 684 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 3: They put in Lamar in twenty eighteen, they make the playoffs, 685 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 3: they lose to the Chargers at home. They're not perfect, right, 686 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 3: and being a new mix with the new offensive coordinator 687 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 3: and Jackson coming back, maybe you can take advantage of 688 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 3: the element of surprise and spring something on them that 689 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 3: they're not expecting. I don't know. 690 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: I think also o'dill Beckham Junior. I'm very curious to 691 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: see what he looks like. He hasn't played since he 692 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: tore his knee up in that Super Bowl when he 693 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: was with the Rams. 694 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 2: Yea, like everyone thought he wasn't even going to come back. 695 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 5: The rookies a Flowers too. I mean they're very very 696 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 5: high on that guy, very high they'll be at Those 697 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 5: two will be a nice test for Derrick Stingly and 698 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 5: Stephen Nelson. You know how much does each of those 699 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 5: corners get the other guys switched around a bunch? Yeah, 700 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 5: that's that's a fascinating matchup as well. 701 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 2: And and the safeties as well, just keeping their eye 702 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 2: on the. 703 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: Well captains too, how about that Jimmy Warred and Jalen 704 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: Treat That is cool. 705 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 3: That is cool. It's cool that Stroud gets elected captain. 706 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 3: Now Will Anderson's not a captain, but someday he will be. 707 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, but do you know, like, okay on the captains. 708 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: Since the captains came out yesterday, I was thinking about this. 709 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: In the past few years, it's always felt like whoever 710 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: the captains are will of course season with. 711 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 2: The captains are the leaders of your team. 712 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: But this year I felt like there were so many 713 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: other players that actually could. 714 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 4: Have been It's a really good point. 715 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: Like Damian Pierce, I feel like he could why he 716 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: could have been a captain. John Weeks could have been 717 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 2: a captain. 718 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 5: And think about this too. These captains haven't been captains 719 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 5: for a long time. Tunsel had it for half of 720 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 5: a season last. 721 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 2: Year because Brandon Cook's. 722 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 5: Jimmy Lord was a captain for the last two seasons 723 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 5: in San Francisco and then the rookies and never been 724 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 5: a captain obviously, and petrees this first time to be 725 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 5: a captain. So it's it's inexperienced captaincies. Not that that matters, 726 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 5: but it's just kind of new blood in that regard. 727 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 2: I think it's a good sign. 728 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: It means that you've got your young players are leaders 729 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. So I am excited 730 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: that C. J. Stroud is a captain. I don't know 731 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: if that was because he was the quarterback and he 732 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: was here in the starting job. 733 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 3: It was elected by the players, right, so this is 734 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 3: the coaches just get a vote to This is high praise. 735 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 5: Remember last year, boy, And if you read the Jonathan 736 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 5: Alexander Houston Chronicle story about Straw that came out today, 737 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 5: Holy moly. 738 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 4: That's a whopper. 739 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:06,959 Speaker 3: I haven't read it yet. 740 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 5: T job by Alexander. Heck of a job, heck of 741 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 5: a story about see. I mean, it's really really impressive 742 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 5: what he's been through and overcome and how he's flourished. 743 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 4: You can see why. 744 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 5: Okay, based on a lot of the things he details 745 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 5: in that article, you can see why they elected this guy. 746 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 5: He's he's wise beyond his years. 747 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's been through so much, just with his dad, 748 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: overcoming adversity than going to Ohio State all the attention 749 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: that was on him there. It seems like no stage 750 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: is too big for him, which I think you like 751 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: to see in a quarterback. 752 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 2: You don't want anyone to feel overwhelmed at that spot. 753 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 3: I like what Nick said about it this morning, and 754 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 3: I know he's going to do this tomorrow with us 755 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 3: as well. If you're a competitor, you want this, you 756 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 3: want Baltimore. You want that challenge of playing a high octane, 757 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 3: highly regarded team, a team that's a quiet I'll use 758 00:32:55,560 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 3: that word carefully, super Bowl contender, because why not that right? 759 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 3: Why not the Ravens out of that division? Bengals, I 760 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:05,959 Speaker 3: don't know, they might slow down a little bit. 761 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 5: Steelers quarterback who's been a league MVP, you've got a 762 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 5: shot it at all. 763 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and a defense that's always in the top ten, 764 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: if not the top five. Twenty four years of football. 765 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 3: The last twenty four years, they've been out of the 766 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 3: top ten just seven times, and they've been close. When 767 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 3: they haven't been in the top ten, they have a cup. 768 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 3: They have like one in the twenties, but that was it. 769 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 3: It was an aberration. And they have a lot of 770 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 3: top fours, top threes, top fives in there as well. 771 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 3: This is a defensive franchise, no doubt, and they're going 772 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: to be that again. 773 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: Well on the offensive side of the ball, both of 774 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: these teams new offensive coordinators. Not really sure what we're 775 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: going to see with the preseason, both teams sort of 776 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 1: held back the big guns, But like, what are we 777 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: expecting to see, both from the Texans and the Ravens. 778 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 4: Lots of play action. 779 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna see lots of bootlegs and stuff 780 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 5: when the Texans do throw it. I can't wait to see, 781 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 5: you know, like the I'm just gonna be for the yes, yes, 782 00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 5: the old day. 783 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 3: Well, I want to see some plays that we haven't seen, right, Yeah, 784 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 3: I want to be surprised. Yeah, I think we will. 785 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 3: We'll be surprised. They've been working on some stuff that 786 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 3: they don't want the world to see, and they got 787 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 3: to have some special, easy short stuff with a lot 788 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 3: of yak potential for CJ. Stroud, you know, get it 789 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 3: to Robert Woods and he can take off and run 790 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 3: with it. Same thing with Nico obviously, get it down 791 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 3: field to Dell. On occasion, I want to see one 792 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 3: of those bootleg playfakes and Dell is wide open with an. 793 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,879 Speaker 5: Acre lots and lots of Shenanigans cooked up for Tank Dell, 794 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 5: I really do. I mean, I think there's we didn't 795 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 5: see him against the Saints. You saw him on the 796 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 5: punt return and that was it. I think, Yeah, I 797 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 5: think there's a lot that Tank Dell's gonna do this 798 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 5: season that that's been specially designed for him, because he 799 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 5: is He is just a different dude. 800 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 3: You want to talk about wise beyond your years. He 801 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 3: just has this old soul air about him right that 802 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 3: he's a pro. He comes in as a prof professional. 803 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 3: And I stopped talking about his size weeks ago because 804 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 3: I said, this guy's a moon, a FID receiver, playmaker. 805 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 3: I don't care. I want him to stay healthy. That's 806 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 3: that's all I'm thinking about here, because I think if 807 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,720 Speaker 3: he's healthy, he's going to make a ton of plays 808 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 3: in this League. 809 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Travis and Dy both were talking about 810 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: they can't believe that size is still an issue when 811 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: it comes to receivers, when some of the best receivers 812 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: in the NFL have been undersized because that's what makes 813 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: them so quick. 814 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 2: And shifty, is the fact that they are smaller. 815 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: But I think with Tank, you bring up a good 816 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: point is just being going the Juco route, being undersized, 817 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: having to prove himself time and time again. He's got 818 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: that chip on his shoulder like CJ, but coming from 819 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 1: a different coming from a totally different program. 820 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know it's it's interesting before the Patriots 821 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 5: game in the preseason this year, Mark and I were 822 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 5: in the production meeting the day before the game and 823 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 5: Case Keenum was in there, and at one point I asked, Case, Hey, 824 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 5: you're obviously a Cougar. Tank Dell is a Cougar decade 825 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 5: a part or so. But you've kept your tabs on him. 826 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 5: What do you think about what he did there versus 827 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 5: what you've seen him do in training camp and in 828 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 5: OTAs In Case, remember that he paused and he kind 829 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 5: of collected his thought and he said he was making 830 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 5: plays in college. And I know people talk about the 831 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 5: AAC and the level of competition, but trust me, there's 832 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 5: really good players in that conference. And he was he 833 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 5: was doing that and making plays. Well, he's doing the 834 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 5: same thing against a really good NFL secondary right now. 835 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 5: And Case was kind of very diplomatically saying he was 836 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 5: doing it against college competition, and hey, it's one thing 837 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 5: to do it there, but he's actually doing it against 838 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 5: a pretty darn good NFL secondary too. So yeah, it 839 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:43,919 Speaker 5: was it was cool hearing him say it. He won't 840 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 5: being a homer about it. It was very a detached, 841 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 5: analytical view of things, and just that's another selling point, 842 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 5: another tick mark on. 843 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, this guy's legit. 844 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 3: Can they sign Case keen him to a lifetime contract? 845 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 3: I want to see that. 846 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was Demico Ryans miked up at camp.

Final segment of Texans All Access. 858 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 2: Final segment of Texans All Access coming your way. 859 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: I've got Mark, I've got Drew, It's myself DP. We're 860 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: going to go around the NFL as we head into 861 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: week one. And all right, guys, I Mark, I just 862 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: I know Mark loves when it comes to bad news 863 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 1: with the Colts. 864 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 2: So shall we start there. 865 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 3: I really feel bad about how I'm going to feel 866 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 3: right now, Go ahead, tell me what it is, all right? 867 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: So Jonathan Taylor obviously going to miss the first four 868 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: weeks is such a shame of it. 869 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: So disappointed. There is no starting running back in Indianapolis. 870 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 3: That's a shame, and there. 871 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: May not be in week two either, because Shane Steigen 872 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: says they're gonna go running back by committee. They've got 873 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: Zach Moss and Dean Jackson and Evan Hall and they're 874 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: just gonna put all through of those guys out there 875 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: they played play. 876 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 5: With, they get to play with thirteen guys. If it's 877 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 5: the committee gets to run or is it, yeah. 878 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 2: The committee? 879 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,800 Speaker 3: Somebody that's got a gavel, listen, I think Zach Moss 880 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,959 Speaker 3: is a pretty good player, and I was thinking during 881 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 3: the postseason that Buffalo was wishing they still had Zach Moss. 882 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 3: I know Nahim Hines did some good things for them, 883 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 3: especially in that return from DeMar Hamlin game. 884 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,439 Speaker 1: From the Probably game, they probably wish they still had him. 885 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Zach Moss can be dangerous. He's a heavy runner. 886 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 3: I just think the leading rusher is going to be 887 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 3: Anthony rich Richardson more often than not in the early going, 888 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 3: especially before they get Taylor back, and maybe they didn't never, 889 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 3: maybe they never get Taylor back. But as long as 890 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 3: they have Richardson, he can make plays by himself, things 891 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 3: break down. He's gonna run. I think Stroud's gonna run 892 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 3: a little bit too on Sunday as well. I think 893 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,919 Speaker 3: that's gonna enter the repertoire of what he what he does. 894 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 3: We've seen it at practice from time to time, and 895 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,280 Speaker 3: during the game they're gonna talk to him slide, don't 896 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 3: risk anything, but they're gonna be yards to be had 897 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 3: with his legs. And I think Stroud's gonna do that 898 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 3: now with Richardson, you know he's going to do that 899 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 3: just part of what he does right, It's part of 900 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 3: his mix. So I like that they say running back 901 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 3: by committee because it's kind of like, if you have 902 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 3: two quarterbacks, you have none. If you have running back 903 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 3: by committee, you do you really have one running back. 904 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 3: But there's still Look, it's still the Colds. I don't 905 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 3: care who they put out there. The Cults are always 906 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 3: going to be a tough team for the Texans to beat. 907 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 3: You know this, I will talk about that next week. 908 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 5: I know we're clicking our fingers together like mister Burns 909 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 5: from the Simpsons. 910 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 4: But man, the. 911 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 5: Doom and gloom in me worries that none of that's 912 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 5: gonna matter. And Richardson's just gonna ball out and throw 913 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:54,800 Speaker 5: for seven touchdowns. 914 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 3: He's not gonna do that. 915 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 4: He's just gonna look like fantastic week two. 916 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe maybe it's the season per they. 917 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 5: Wait on that on being excited about them not having 918 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:03,919 Speaker 5: a running back. 919 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 3: They're hosting the Jags this weekend. I'm not even gonna 920 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 3: look at the line. I know the Jags are favored. 921 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 3: What do you think you think that the Jags win 922 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 3: that one? I think so definitely picking the jack Yeah, 923 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 3: I think how surprised would you be if the Colts 924 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 3: pull off it upset at home opening day. I got 925 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 3: the Jags team that's not perfect. 926 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: Not at all, But I do think that not surprise 927 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 1: only because it's hard to prepare for a team that 928 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: you've never seen. 929 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,400 Speaker 2: You don't know, how do you prepare against Anthony Richardson. 930 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:30,919 Speaker 2: I mean you just really can't. 931 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 3: But I think overwhelmed the line of scrimmage, you can. 932 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 1: But I mean he doesn't have like at least you've 933 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: got DJ Stroud and we've talk we just got to 934 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: talk about how important Damian Pierce is going to be 935 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 1: for CJ. Stroud and Anthony Richardson doesn't have that. You 936 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: can run all he wants, but it is still nice 937 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: to have a running back that you can hand the 938 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 1: ball off too. Now and then you don't want him 939 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 1: to do all the work. 940 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,479 Speaker 3: In week one, they'll hand off, I mean they will. 941 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 1: Jacks was banged up in camp, which is why I 942 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 1: think they did not name him the start Dean Jackson. 943 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 3: This is they're not a little like here. 944 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: But Jonathan, I mean Jonathan Taylor, Like, yes, that's a 945 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: that's a that's a heavy hand to replace right now. 946 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he's Derek Henry league. You know, either 947 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 3: are different types of runners, but he's in that league 948 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 3: with Derek Henry of among the best in the NFL, 949 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 3: and he's not available right now, and it's such a shame. Also, 950 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 3: the Titans are going to be at New Orleans. Hmm, okay, 951 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 3: what kind of chance? What kind of snowballs chance do 952 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 3: you give them at New Orleans? I mean, I think 953 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 3: New Orleans wins this game. But the Titans could shockingly 954 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 3: be better than a lot of people expect. I know 955 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 3: they have replacements to nurture on the O line, but 956 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 3: they should still have plenty of defense to play. They 957 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 3: still have Dereck Henry and Hopkins, and maybe it all 958 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 3: comes together for them enough to beat the Saints in 959 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 3: more teams than you think. 960 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean we've seen what DeAndre Hopkins can do 961 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 5: for a quarterback around here. Yes, you know, pre Deshaun 962 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 5: Watson during the show, he's he's going to help them out. 963 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 5: But man, I still think the Saints are going to 964 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 5: be much much better than they were last year. I 965 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 5: think Derek Carr adds just a new element to that team. 966 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 5: I got some friends who are Saints fans, and they're 967 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 5: pretty jacked up. They're excited about. 968 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 3: The see Kamara with Car with their other weapons, and 969 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 3: Car being a steadying force and not turning it over 970 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 3: as much as Winston would. I like James because he 971 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 3: goes for the big play, but he gets turned over 972 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 3: a lot, right, so Car for Car's sake, I hope 973 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 3: he doesn't do that as much until he comes here, 974 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 3: of course, and we'll see how that goes. But I'll 975 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 3: be rooty for the Saints this weekend when they entertained 976 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 3: the title. 977 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: The Saints are ranked, so the power rankings already out 978 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,760 Speaker 1: in a film dot COM's got power rankings. 979 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 2: Saints. Guess where they come in the Saints. 980 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 3: I bet they're No, they're not that high. 981 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 1: They're fourteenth, sixteenth, dead in the middle. Okay, all right, 982 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 1: so we'll see, we'll see, and then the Titans are 983 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 1: blow them. 984 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,720 Speaker 2: Jags are the highest the AFC South. 985 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 3: They're probably the Jags ranked thirteenth nine. 986 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: They're nine, Yeah, top ten, that's what I meant. They're 987 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: cracking top ten. Jacksonville, guess where the Texans are. 988 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 3: I think the jack are rated a bit too. I 989 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 3: don't want to say overrated. I think their paper is 990 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 3: graded a bit too high. Where the Texans. Look, Come on, 991 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 3: if you're doing one of these things, where are you 992 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 3: going to put the Texans? 993 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,439 Speaker 2: I'm gonna put them higher than they are right now? 994 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 3: Twenty eighth. 995 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: They're thirty first? What above the and how about this 996 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: above them? The Colts at twenty ninth? 997 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't get that. You can understand that you 998 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,719 Speaker 3: tied them and beat them, and you have a better 999 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 3: quarterback than they do, at least on paper. 1000 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 2: And their best player is off the field. 1001 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 3: And you have, Yeah, you have more going for you 1002 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 3: than they do going into the opening weekend. That's wrong 1003 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 3: that the Colts are ranked ahead of the Texans. 1004 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 1: I think somebody tweeted that NFL Power rankings are here 1005 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,959 Speaker 1: to make everybody angry about where they're doing. 1006 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 4: It's true, they get. 1007 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, they got me because I'm arguing about who should 1008 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,959 Speaker 3: be twenty ninth? Really really, this is what we do here? 1009 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: No so meaningless? Kansas City is number one and Chris Jones. 1010 00:43:59,480 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 2: Is even play. 1011 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 3: Well, where would you put them? 1012 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 2: I'm putting them number one and at the Eagles at 1013 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 2: number two. 1014 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, sounds good to me. I'm still complaining that the 1015 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 3: opening game is the Lions at the Chiefs. I went 1016 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 3: on a rant about this last week on the air 1017 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 3: because I said, they have games on their schedule that 1018 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 3: are way better than this. They have the Dolphins at home, 1019 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 3: they have the Eagles at home. They have a Super 1020 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 3: Bowl rematch at home, and they're not putting it on 1021 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:29,359 Speaker 3: Thursday night, kickoff night. They're not doing it. They've got 1022 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 3: the Chargers, of course, they have a variety of places 1023 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 3: they can go. They have the Bengals at home. They 1024 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 3: could have done that as well. No, we're going to 1025 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,520 Speaker 3: do the Lions because they're everybody's favorite team. No, they're 1026 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 3: going to do the Lions because they're good enough and 1027 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 3: everyone's gonna be watching anyway. We're gonna save those big 1028 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 3: games for CBS and Fox later on NBC, flexing potential, 1029 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 3: whatever else. 1030 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 2: Marc is turning his back on his favorite guy, Aaron Glenn. 1031 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 3: I love AG, but come on, I'm sure AG would rather. 1032 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: The Lions are ranked eleventh this Power rankings, So I 1033 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 1: don't know what that's I'm sure this is gonna be 1034 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: totally shuffled around next week, all right before we go 1035 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 1: around the NFL. NFL Network added six new analysts ahead 1036 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty three, season one six, and one 1037 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:17,320 Speaker 1: of them none other than former Texans offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton. 1038 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 3: You're kidding, now, I knew good. Pep was doing a 1039 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 3: bunch of training camp stuff with them, So I'm hoping 1040 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 3: that this really turns out well for him. I think 1041 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 3: he's got the aptitude to do it. Some of the 1042 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 3: training camp stuff that's really clunky and tough. You know, 1043 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 3: you're in the hot weather, you're sitting there with a microphone. 1044 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 3: You don't know where they're going. They're trying to fill 1045 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 3: time or whatever they're doing. This is a little bit 1046 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 3: more of a controlled environment. I want to see how 1047 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 3: this turns out for. 1048 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,359 Speaker 2: Studio shows, including NFL Game Day Lives. 1049 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 3: Does he ride his bike to the studio? Maybe he 1050 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 3: left it here because well, Dandy Barrett's still here with 1051 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:50,479 Speaker 3: the bike. 1052 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 4: Ride the bike, I think, yeah, I think he's the 1053 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 4: only one right now. 1054 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:55,439 Speaker 2: Yeah started the bike. 1055 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 3: It was Pep and Danny Barrett riding the bikes, and 1056 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 3: I think that was really smart. I'm surprised that has 1057 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 3: caught on with the players. We had the segues a decade. 1058 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 4: Ago right in then Energy Stadium. 1059 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 3: Why don't we have bikes now? Could you imagine a 1060 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 3: massive player bike parking lot in the always. 1061 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 1: Any of Demico's not riding a bike, nobody's riding a bike. 1062 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,919 Speaker 1: If he can, If he can walk, everyone else can walk. 1063 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: All right, speaking of walking, Texans all Access walked. 1064 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 2: So that Texans matchup could run? Do you like this? 1065 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 2: Say I like that? 1066 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: Coming up next, John Harris brings you Texans Matchup. The 1067 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,359 Speaker 1: Texans haven't even played a game yet, so what could 1068 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: be he'd be possibly matching up? You don't have to 1069 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 1: tune in and find out. But that's going to do 1070 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 1: it for Texans All Access.
