Speaker 2: and there's massively important news about them.

Speaker 1: We'll get to that with Mark Vandermier here in a

6
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: little bit.

7
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,320

Speaker 2: for your Houston, Texas So glad to be with you.

9
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: We have so much to do tonight.

10
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 2: We got the Slant with Brevin Jordan, and we've got

11
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 2: a new guest host for the Slant this week. We'll

12
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 2: get to that in a little bit. We're gonna hear

13
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: from a guy that I caught up with a Big

14
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: Twelve Media Days. If you followed college you follow college football,

15
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 2: you know Bruce Feldman from the Athletic I caught up

16
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: caught up with him at Big twelve Media Days, and

17
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 2: this is kind of longer story. I'll tell him bit later,

18
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: but in essence, I was kind of going through some

19
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: of my files and I found that I went, wait

20
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: a second, I'd like to play this. This was back

21
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 2: in August before camp started, and he was on the CJ.

22
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: Stroud train more than anybody that I met, and more

23
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: than anybody that talk to. So we'll have Bruce Feldman's thoughts,

24
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 2: how I mean, how were they back in late July,

25
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: mid July actually, and what CJ. Strott has turned into.

26
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: So we got that we're gonna go man behind the

27
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: Mike's with Bob was shoosing. We got that we're gonna

28
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 2: go behind enemy sidelines with Drew Doherty and he does

29
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: that with Caroline Hendershot who is the side of the

30
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: reporter and covers the Jets for one Jets Drive and

31
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: will also go in the lab. But each and every

32
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,279
Speaker 2: Wednesday we kick it off with Executive vice president Football

33
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 2: Ops and general Manager Nick Cassario with me and Mark.

34
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 3: Let's go, and it's time now for our visit with

35
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 3: executive vice president and general Manager Nick Cassario. Nick, great

36
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 3: to see you, and here we are on our way

37
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: to New York. But first a review of the victory

38
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: over the Denver Broncos.

39
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 4: Another nail bitter, Nick, Yeah, what is it?

40
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 5: Eight of the last games and then one score game.

41
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 5: So the big thing just found a way to finish

42
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 5: the game. Good execution defensively there in the end, took

43
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 5: advantage of some turnover opportunities and Jimmy made the play

44
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 5: there at the end of the game. So situational football

45
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 5: really all encompassed right there. So two minutes and then

46
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 5: you get the ball into the red area kind of

47
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 5: in the game, and really usually games will come down

48
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 5: to one play. We've seen that in a lot of

49
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 5: our games. We've seen that in other games around the

50
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 5: league as well. We saw it last you know, the

51
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 5: other day with the Jacksonville Cincinnati game. So this is

52
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 5: what the what the league is. So you just want

53
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 5: to give put yourself in a position we have an

54
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 5: opportunity to win the game, hopefully, and if you can

55
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 5: control in the fourth quarter, that's the that's the main objective.

56
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: We're the only AFC South team to finish a game

57
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,119
Speaker 2: in regulation.

58
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: How about that?

59
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 2: The Tights, Colts overtime, Jags went overtime, nicke along those lines.

60
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: What's the thing you're most proud of in getting the win?

61
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 2: I mean, you talked about a couple of key things,

62
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 2: But what's the one thing you took out of there

63
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: and went, you know what, dang it, we did this

64
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: against this team.

65
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 1: What's the thing you're most proud of get that winnings?

66
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, we finished a big point of emphasis against Denver,

67
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 5: where they had taken the ball away as good as

68
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 5: any team in the league over the last four to

69
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 5: five games. So the fact that we didn't turn the

70
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 5: ball over. They knocked it off us a few times,

71
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 5: but we were able to get it back, but we

72
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 5: had the advantage turnover wise. We had three takeaways, no

73
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 5: turnovers on offense. I'd say it's a huge accomplishment. It's

74
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 5: a huge point of emphasis going into every game. Players

75
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 5: were certainly conscious of it, and they took advantage of

76
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 5: the opportunities we had them. So I'd say that the

77
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 5: ability to take care of the football offensively. We talked

78
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 5: about some of the explosive plays we talked about in

79
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 5: the pre game on both sides of the ball. We

80
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 5: gave a few up but limited them for the most part.

81
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 5: We were able to make some offensively. Just to finish

82
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 5: the game the way we did, I'd say that's more

83
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 5: than anything. I think everybody is certainly happy and proud

84
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 5: of what the team accomplished.

85
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 3: And how about adversity within the game, losing Tank Dell,

86
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 3: which was a big blow not only to the game plan,

87
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: I would imagine, but the guys love Tank Dell. And

88
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: everything he brings the table on and off the field.

89
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, we all love Tank and think Tank is the

90
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 5: ultimate embodyment. We want a Houston textan football player to

91
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 5: look like, to be like the way he cares about football,

92
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 5: his competitiveness, his toughness, his team first mindset, mentality, and

93
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 5: he's a good football player. So when you factor all

94
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 5: those things, he's got a great personality. He's a great kid.

95
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 5: You know, we all love him, wish him well in

96
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 5: his recovery, and we're going to be here to support

97
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 5: him like we would anybody else.

98
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: Nick Nico nine catches hundred and ninety one yards one touchdown.

99
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: We've really seen him kind of blossom this year.

100
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 2: What's been kind of biggest aspect for Nico that really

101
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: has kind of set him on a course that he's

102
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: on this year.

103
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

104
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 5: Really, the big thing is just consistency and confidence, just

105
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 5: in self confidence more than anything else. And from the

106
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 5: time that we drafted him to where he is now,

107
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 5: he's putting a lot of work. He's really grown and

108
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 5: developed physically mentally from a churity standpoint. When you go

109
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 5: back and kind of look at his history, he didn't

110
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 5: play football in twenty twenty he sat out the year,

111
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 5: so he basically missed a year of football. Then he

112
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 5: went to the Senior Bowl. He was probably a little

113
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 5: bit overweight, a little bigger. Then we took him in

114
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 5: twenty one. Saw some glimpses, saw some flashes, and that

115
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 5: continued to twenty two. He really worked hard in the offseason,

116
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 5: very diligent with his approach taking is able to take

117
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 5: some of the things that we showed him. Here's some

118
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 5: areas that you can improve. Ben's done a phenomenal job

119
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 5: with him from start to finish, and Nico has really

120
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 5: committed himself to being a good football player. And then

121
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 5: he's going out there and he's performed and made plays.

122
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 5: Anytime you do that, you develop confidence. And I think

123
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 5: the biggest difference with him probably this year relative to

124
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 5: previous years is what he's been able to do with

125
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 5: the ball in his hands.

126
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 6: I mean, he's a big, strong player.

127
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 5: Sometimes he didn't always play to his size, but he's

128
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 5: played more to his size and when he has the

129
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 5: ball in his hands, he's difficult to tackle. We saw

130
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 5: that in the end a half play against Jacksonville. We

131
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 5: saw it here in the long completion here the other

132
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 5: day when he broke a tackler too and was able

133
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 5: to gain extra yard. So we talk about game of

134
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 5: yards after the catch, and you've seen multiple examples of

135
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 5: that from Nico this season. But Nico's a great kid

136
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 5: and works really hard, cares a lot about football, is

137
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 5: a good teammate.

138
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 6: So we're certainly happy that he's here.

139
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 3: He's part of your first draft class here and the

140
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: latest draft class doing some really great things. Nick, But

141
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 3: Jimmy Ward comes up with a big play at the

142
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 3: end as well. And can you discuss the way this

143
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 3: whole thing has been put together in the offseason. So

144
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: many young players, but you did sprinkle in those key

145
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 3: free agent acquisitions, those veterans who are really helping the

146
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: team as well.

147
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 1: It's a good mix.

148
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 6: Well, appreciate that.

149
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 5: I mean, we've put a lot of time, a lot

150
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 5: of effort from a lot of different people. But I

151
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 5: think we're very purposeful with how we constructed the team.

152
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 5: Understanding there's any end you want to probably have a

153
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 5: balance between younger players and some veteran players that come

154
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 5: from winning programs. Specific to Jimmy, Jimmy's Butcher brought tremendous

155
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 5: leadership and toughness and personalities football team, and a lot

156
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 5: of players feed off of him. So there's the team

157
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 5: building is not an exact science. So you understand each

158
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 5: year you're gonna probably draft X number of players, so

159
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 5: you're gonna have a certain number of younger players that

160
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 5: come on to your team.

161
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 6: We've talked about this.

162
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 5: You're probably gonna have twenty five thirty percent of the

163
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 5: existing team that turns over players who aren't under contract.

164
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 5: Players are gonna be for agents, so you're gonna have

165
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 5: to replace them. So we've talked about this. There's it's

166
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 5: like a little bit of a puzzle and you're trying

167
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 5: to piece it together. It doesn't always work perfectly, but

168
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 5: you're trying to get some balance of younger players and

169
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 5: some veteran players that have some experience. I've been associated

170
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 5: winning programs because they have an understanding of what good

171
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 5: football looks like and what it takes to be successful.

172
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 5: And then you compliment that or bring in younger players

173
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 5: that have the same mindset, and you put that together,

174
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 5: and in the end, it's about the players, and it's

175
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 5: about them relying on each other on a consistent basis,

176
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 5: because in the end, it's eleven players on offense, eleven

177
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 5: on defense, and they have each other. They don't really

178
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 5: have anybody else on the field.

179
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 2: Nick, I'm always enamored when the concept in the talk

180
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: of Derek Stingley Junior comes up, because you can look

181
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 2: at sting and go, that's what a defensive back, a

182
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 2: cornerback of this league is supposed to look like. I mean,

183
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: he's got every physical attribute, but it feels like his

184
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 2: football knowledge is football like he was pretty darn high

185
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: as well. How when you're evaluating not just sting but

186
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: every player, how do you kind of get a sense

187
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: for how football intelligent a prospect, a draft pick is.

188
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 5: No, it's a great question, John, It's difficult, And what

189
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 5: you have to do is you have to combine what

190
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 5: you see physically on tape, how a player plays, does

191
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 5: he see things, does he process information? Is he in

192
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 5: the right spots? Does he make the right decision? And

193
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 5: then as you gather your background information about how the

194
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 5: player learns, how he applies concepts, how does he study,

195
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 5: what's his work ethic, then you try to have to

196
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 5: marry the two together and to come to conclusion to say, well,

197
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 5: this is what we think we have. So a lot

198
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 5: of that goes on behind the scenes, and it's very

199
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 5: individualized in certain positions and everybody has a different personality.

200
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 5: Some players learn better than others. But do you understand concepts?

201
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 5: Do you defensive? Do you understand how you fit within

202
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 5: the defense? You understand what the offense is trying to do?

203
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 5: Are you in the right spot? Can you react to

204
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 5: what you see? Defense is a very reactionary I would

205
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 5: say game, So you have to be able to anticipate

206
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 5: what's going to happen. So sometimes you don't know what

207
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 5: they're being told or what they're being coached to do.

208
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 5: So part of our job is to interpret that and

209
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 5: then go back and say, okay, that makes sense, all right?

210
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 5: So then do they have an appetite for learning? Are

211
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 5: they coachable and they're going to take concepts and be

212
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 5: able to apply them on a regular basis. So that's

213
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 5: where a lot of the off season study goes into

214
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 5: and what we try to gather as much information as

215
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 5: possible and make an assessment about what we think the

216
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 5: player possesses.

217
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 3: It has to be the most zen satisfying moment ever

218
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 3: to have your third overall pick tip a ball that

219
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 3: the third overall pick from last year intercepts and intercepts.

220
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how you're going to respond to that.

221
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 7: Than anything else, but that was pretty.

222
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 4: Awesome to see. I feel like Chris Farley right now.

223
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: That was also.

224
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, it was two good football players making say,

225
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 5: two instinctive plays. I think from Will's perspective, it was

226
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 5: a three step drop, so probably not going to be

227
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 5: able to get to the quarterback. So what's the next

228
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 5: thing you're thought to do is try to get your

229
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 5: hands in the passing lane to try to deflect or

230
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 5: alter the ball. And he just so happened to get

231
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 5: his hand in the football and Sting was able to

232
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,599
Speaker 5: really make an adjustment to a ball back to his

233
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 5: inside he he was driving on an outcut, probably gonna

234
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 5: come up and make the tackle, you know, and make

235
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 5: it second in four whatever it was. And then the

236
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 5: ability to react and to split second to the trajectory

237
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 5: of the ball that that wasn't really an easy catch

238
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 5: to make. So it just speaks to, let'd say, kind

239
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 5: of like we just talked about, like their level of

240
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 5: awareness and instinctiveness, and then combine that with stings ball

241
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 5: skills and finish the play, and that ended up being

242
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 5: really a big play in a game because it was

243
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 5: a short field and points are at premium, especially.

244
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 6: In that game.

245
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, remember when you drafted him. That was awesome, That

246
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 2: was really cool. Yeah, Chris Farley here would have done

247
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 2: that something like that. All right, sleep Broncos behind.

248
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: It's good.

249
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 2: Win seven to five games in December. You got a

250
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 2: lot of big ones coming up. Biggest one obviously is

251
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 2: the next one. That's the New York Jets in New Jersey. Nick,

252
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 2: it's a really interesting team when you just look at

253
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 2: everything goes on.

254
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about the Jets? What's the scattering

255
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: important of the Jets?

256
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a really a lot of good football players

257
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 5: lettered throughout the roster. I mean, Joe and Robert have

258
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 5: done a good job of adding players of the team.

259
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 5: The strength of their team has been on the defensive

260
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 5: side of the ball. So they're one of the top

261
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 5: defenses that we're going to face. They're very good in

262
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 5: the front. They really go eight to nine deep in

263
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,199
Speaker 5: the front with two really good linebackers, and c J.

264
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 5: And Quincy are outstanding players. They're really complimenting so other

265
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 5: very well. They're kind of a nickel defense, so they've

266
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 5: used some three safety looks depending if it's Ashton Davis,

267
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 5: they've used him kind of in the big nickel, and

268
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 5: then Michael Carter has really been the slock corner. And

269
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 5: then you know Sauce has obviously made a big impact

270
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 5: on their team. And then really they they drafted Sauce

271
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 5: the same as their drafted Sauce. They signed DJ Read

272
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 5: and free agency and those have really strengthened solidified what

273
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 5: they do in a promoter defense and at safety they've

274
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 5: had some moving parts, but Whitehead has really emerged and

275
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 5: done a nice job for them, and Adams is kind

276
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 5: of in the job. But they put a lot of

277
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 5: stress and they really tax you offensively. It's a you know,

278
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 5: Wincey's brother Q, Big Q is a problem money inside part.

279
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 5: I mean Quentina Williams is good at defensive I'd say

280
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 5: lineman defensive players.

281
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 6: In the league.

282
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 5: And then they really roll the edge players through, so

283
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 5: they present a lot. I think they're I don't know,

284
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 5: top ten in a number of different categories.

285
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 6: They're good in the red area.

286
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 5: So they've been a good defensive team and they've been

287
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 5: in seven to one score games when you go back

288
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 5: and see so they've been a competitive team, and offensively

289
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 5: you really have I would say two explosive playmakers in

290
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 5: Wilson and Breeze Hall. So anytime that they touch the ball,

291
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 5: they can be a problem. They can be a factor.

292
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 5: So they've had some moving parts of quarterback and going

293
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 5: back to Aaron and what happened to him, and then

294
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 5: Zach has had his moment. Zachs as a talented player.

295
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 5: He's skilled thrower. He had a couple throws in a

296
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 5: Raider game that really made you go, WHOA, this kid's

297
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 5: pretty talented. I think they're just looking for overall consistency

298
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 5: and what they're trying to do. So and in a

299
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 5: kicking game, they've done a good job. Zerolines kicked the

300
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 5: ball well. Gibson, they've gotten good return a lot of

301
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 5: Gibson steven f kids. So I mean it's a good

302
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 5: football team, a lot of talented players, and they've been

303
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 5: in seven to one score games. So we're gonna have

304
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 5: to play good football when it will come out with

305
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: the W It's going to certainly be a big challenge

306
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 5: on the road. There's probably gonna be some elements potentially,

307
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 5: it looks like with the weather. So we just have

308
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 5: to prepare, try to have a good week and go

309
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 5: up there with the right mindset and try to get

310
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 5: a good you know, get a good win against good

311
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 5: football team.

312
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 3: Well, Johnny mentioned big games here. We are well after

313
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving now into December and down the stretch they come.

314
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 3: Do games to you when you're reviewing them on tape

315
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 3: look different this time of year in intensity from say

316
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 3: a game in September, because it feels different, But is

317
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 3: it different as you view things?

318
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 5: Generally speaking, it's just an overall greater sense of the

319
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 5: urgency because everybody kind of realizes what's at stake. You

320
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 5: have less opportunities. We have five regular season games remaining,

321
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 5: and if you're in a position at this time of year,

322
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 5: you're just trying to give yourself an opportunity in the

323
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 5: next week to play and play in a more meaningful game.

324
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 5: So I think there's heightened awareness, there's heightened level of

325
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 5: just overall urgency, just understanding that the clock is ticking

326
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 5: here and potentially you know you're going to run out

327
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 5: of time. So I think the key is just to

328
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 5: focus on the task in hand, which is the Jets

329
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 5: this week. Try to have a good week, try to prepare,

330
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 5: try to get ready to go and then whatever the

331
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 5: outcome is the game, be ready to flip the page

332
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 5: and go to the next team. But this time of year,

333
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 5: when you're playing meaningful games in September, it's certainly where

334
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 5: you want to be. It doesn't guarantee you anything, because

335
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 5: ultimately how you perform is going to dictate whatever you

336
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 5: get in return.

337
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 2: Nick, you brought up the quarterback situation. Don't think we'ressy

338
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. But now there's well it's Tim Boyle's Zach Wilson.

339
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: How really does that affect the preparation in the fact

340
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: that you're not totally one hundred percent sure.

341
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: Maybe they're not sure. I don't know about who's gonna

342
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: play quarterback.

343
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you have to understand just generally schematically,

344
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 5: how they've tried to play, whether it's some of the

345
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 5: things that you're trying to emphasize, and then goes back

346
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 5: to the individual players. What are some of the strengths,

347
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 5: what do they do well, and they may try to

348
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 5: play a certain way to cater to the strengths of

349
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 5: whoever those players are. So even at the running back position,

350
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 5: I mean there's been talk potentially Dalvin might have a

351
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 5: more increased role. But there you're talking about a guy

352
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 5: who's been an habitual thousand yard rusher, so who's good

353
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 5: with the ball in his hands. So you prepare for

354
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 5: this scheme, you understand what they're trying to do, and

355
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 5: then you also understand the players, so when they get

356
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 5: in the game, you have an idea maybe how they're

357
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 5: going to use them, and maybe they're some specific to

358
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 5: that player, which we saw that even going back to

359
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 5: Denver with McLoughlin. When McLoughlin was in the game, there's

360
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 5: certain things that they ran with him that they necessarily

361
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 5: didn't run with Javante. So that's part of the EBB

362
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 5: and flow, just understanding your opponent and understanding the strengths

363
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 5: and weaknesses of each player.

364
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 3: Back to this time of year kind of thing with

365
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 3: the players and the sports science guys that you have

366
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 3: and the way you evaluate how players' bodies are this

367
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 3: time of year, can you say something about that and

368
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 3: what you observe and how you take care of those things.

369
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 5: No, absolutely, i'd say this time of year say, I

370
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 5: don't want to say it's becomes critically important, but what

371
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 5: you're trying to do is making sure that on Sunday

372
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 5: you have a fresh football team. So what does the

373
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 5: information tell us? Do we have to make an adjustment

374
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 5: and modification of practice? Then there might be an application

375
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 5: of that. So whatever we have to do to ensure

376
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 5: the player's optimum performance on Sunday, that's where that resource

377
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 5: can become valuable. So we meet each day, they give

378
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 5: us the information. Each day they give it to Demiko

379
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 5: and then Demico can take the information and figure out

380
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 5: what's the best thing for the players. What do we

381
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 5: have to do to get the player of the game.

382
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 5: So when you go out there on Sunday, it's a

383
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 5: very taxing what they do on Sundays is very taxing,

384
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 5: and the ability to recover it takes I mean forty

385
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 5: eight hours typically to recover. So what do we have

386
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 5: to do to put the players in the best position

387
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 5: like this time of year, that's the most important thing, Nick.

388
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 2: I think last week we may have missed the announcement

389
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 2: by a day or so, and that was Derek Barnett

390
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: and claiming him waivers and bringing him here to the roster.

391
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: What was kind of you thought about.

392
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 2: Bringing Derek and twenty seven years old, but you know

393
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 2: has had some injury issues, and then obviously the Eagles

394
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 2: have got a loaded edge area and so he's available.

395
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: Your thoughts about Derek Barnett.

396
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, even though he's a younger player like you, he

397
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 5: has a lot of experience, so has played in a

398
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 5: similar front, had a little bit of a background with

399
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 5: coach Burke, so some of the things that we were

400
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 5: doing defensively, so as we looked at our depth, you know,

401
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 5: just kind of reacting to you know, what happened to

402
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 5: Dylan Horton in his situation. So this time of year,

403
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 5: you're just looking if there's an opportunity to add a player,

404
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 5: then potentially you could plug in in some capacity or role.

405
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 5: So I'd say that was the impetus behind the acquisition,

406
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 5: that Derek wanted anything else. And Derek's been productive when

407
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 5: he's had opportunities. His playtime, to your point, had been

408
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 5: decreased a little bit in Philly because they have a

409
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 5: lot of other players that they're utilizing. So it was

410
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 5: kind of a worked out for both parties. They let

411
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 5: him go, we were able to put in the claim

412
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 5: for him, and he played fifteen snaps or whatever it

413
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 5: was on Sunday, So we'll see how it goes this week.

414
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 3: Well, the tight end position is so interesting because earlier

415
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 3: in the season you at Dalton Schultz and Tiguan Vitoriano

416
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 3: and then there you are playing the Denver Broncos in

417
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 3: a huge game. You got Brevin back from injury. I

418
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 3: know he's been back Eric Sobert who was playing for

419
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 3: the Broncos against the Texans last year.

420
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: That's the NFL for you.

421
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 3: But what about the tight end position, Nick and Brevin

422
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 3: specifically what he can do for the team.

423
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, Brevin's really had a good attitude. He's dealt with

424
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 5: some ups and downs. So he's been County in and

425
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 5: out of the lineup, and he's had some injuries that

426
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 5: have curtailed some of his progress. But he cares a

427
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 5: lot about football. He worked really hard, and I think

428
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 5: you're starting to see some of his work kind of

429
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 5: come to fruition and to be able to go out

430
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 5: there and have some production. It develops a little bit

431
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 5: of kind of like we're talking about with Nico. He's

432
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 5: just developed a bit of confidence in your ability to

433
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 5: actually do it and help the team. So when Brevin's

434
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 5: had opportunities, he's taken advantage of them. We saw that

435
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 5: earlier in the year against Jacksonville and you know, even

436
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 5: we had a touchdown Cats against Blood zero. So when

437
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 5: Brevin's been on the field, he's had productive plays. The

438
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 5: big thing with Brevin is just doing it consistently week

439
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 5: after week, day after day. And he was able to

440
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 5: come through and make some plays for us that helped

441
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 5: us one on Sunday. There's no question about it.

442
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: Niggas might be an odd question, but I happen to

443
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: see a transaction for the Jets the other day that

444
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 2: caught my eye, and it was they signed Bruce Hector

445
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 2: to their practice squad. So's the guy that had been

446
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 2: here for a few days has been here for weeks

447
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 2: or whatever the case might be. I guess the question

448
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 2: is how do you kind of protect your like proprietary

449
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: like stuff.

450
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a twenty thousand dollars question. I think every

451
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 5: team has to deal with it. So this time of year,

452
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 5: you're really dealing week to week and it's a little

453
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 5: bit more opponent specific. So you have a core of

454
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 5: what you've kind of installed in the spring and training camp.

455
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 5: So the reality is you have players at switch teams,

456
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 5: you have coaches at switch teams. You might have a

457
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 5: general understanding maybe some of the principles and concepts, but

458
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 5: ultimately it comes down to the performance on the field.

459
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 5: So I think sometimes probably gets a little bit overrated

460
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 5: the impact that it actually could have. But I think

461
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 5: more than anything, hits familiarity with the system in their front.

462
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 5: He's been on and off their roster at different points

463
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 5: as well, so I think it just speaks to their

464
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 5: depth on the defensive line. Just add another body that

465
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 5: potentially could give them some snaps in a specific role.

466
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 3: All Right, some New York questions here, Nick, it's a

467
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 3: big game for the traveling Texans, big groups going up there.

468

00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 4: What are the hotspots?

470
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:42,600

Speaker 1: Yes, we have been.

476
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 5: We made a we'd actually try to make a trip

00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 5: or two to Times Square and go watch a show

478
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 5: good and then wrap a meal around it. I do

00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 5: have a life. People find that hard to believe, but yeah, no,

480
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 5: it was a lot of fun when we were dating,

481
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,159
Speaker 5: when we were in early stages of our relationship, kind

482
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 5: of something that was that was fun to do.

483
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to ask this because I know that

484
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 2: Sean Pendergas is listening. So I'm gonna ask, have you

485
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 2: ever gone to a wrestling event Madison Square Garden or

486
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 2: in New York?

487
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 6: I have not.

488
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 5: I have been to a wrestling match in Cleveland when

489
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 5: I was at John Carroll I think at the time

490
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 5: it was Goundarina, but I have attended not in New York.

491
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 2: Sean hearing this is going to take you to an event.

492
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: I guarantee you He's going to make this happen.

493
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: Maybe not Saturday night, that's all. I'm not Saturday Night.

494
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: And when you mentioned Sean, I thought maybe you were

495
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 3: going to go Sopranos. Have you ever seen the Sopranos?

496
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 4: Did you like it?

497
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 6: I have?

498
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 5: I know this is almost blasphemous, but I'm not a

499
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 5: big fan of the gangster stuff the family person Sean,

500
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 5: even though my Italian roots would suggest otherwise.

501
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: But you can't go wrong.

502
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 6: With Sinatra, has no question about it.

503
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 4: Very good Nick, thanks a lot for joining us.

Speaker 2: last couple of minutes, very serious football stuff. Yeah, and

507
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,120

Speaker 2: vandam Mary. It's always really fun with Nick. Now with Nick,

509
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 2: we do that interview on Tuesday Peak behind a curt

510
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 2: We done everyone Tuesday. We played for a Young Wednesday.

511
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 2: So Nick did a lot of radio on Tuesday. He

512
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 2: did He did a lot of radio. He was he

513
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 2: was a trooper. He did that. But because we did

514
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 2: it on Tuesday, we didn't get a chance to ask

515
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 2: him about big news coming out of the Big Apple.

516
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 3: What's new Jersey? If New York is the big Apple,

517
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 3: what's new Jersey? Look my thoughts. I grew up in

518
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 3: the area, the Meadowlands. It's kind of an honorary part

519
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 3: of New York. So it's Hoboken. Frank Sinatras from Hoboken,

520
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 3: like we were.

521
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: Talking about, we're gonna be is. It's all okay.

522
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 3: Now, it's all one big Manhattan. Well you can't say Manhattan.

523
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 3: It's all one big Apple for.

524
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 2: The big green Apple of the Jets. Big News Wednesday.

525
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: Zach Wilson name starting quarterback? Your You did your gut

526
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 2: reaction to me last I'm giving it back to you.

527
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: Gut reaction to Zach Wilson being the starter on Sunday

528
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: against the Texans.

529
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 3: Well, don't you really want to know if he was

530
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 3: quote reluctant to come back. I want to know the truth.

531
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 3: I want the truth. And maybe I can't handle this.

532
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: Yeah you can't. And maybe you could handle it. You

533
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: just we're never gonna know.

534
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:23,919
Speaker 4: We're never gonna get it.

535
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 3: We'll never get Look, you're a professional quarterback in this league.

536
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 3: You have a chance to play. You're gonna play. I

537
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 3: know it sucks right now for the New York Jets

538
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 3: and they've got problems galore. Who knows what happens with

539
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 3: this staff. But my gut reaction is I'd rather see

540
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 3: Trevor Simeon than Zach Wilson.

541
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,120
Speaker 4: I'd rather see Simeon at this point.

542
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 3: Now Simeon's want to know against the Houston Texans, and

543
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson's actually want to know against the Houston Texans.

544
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 3: But we're talking about a long time ago. Now, Simeon

545
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 3: had a better situation, or a more impressive situation against

546
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 3: the Texans, and I have football for the Denver Broncos

547
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 3: brought Osweiler with the Thrumble. Oh God, had what would

548
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 3: become the number one defense in the league in total yards.

549
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 3: Amazing but that did happen with Zach Wilson. It was

550
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 3: two years ago. I don't think it counts. But Johnny,

551
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson, he's the kind of guy who I don't

552
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 3: think he could ever thousand paper cut you to death.

553
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 3: But you know, Bryce Young had to drive against this

554
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 3: team at the end of the game. Desmond Ritter had

555
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 3: to drive against this team at the end of the game. Now,

556
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson couldn't, Kyler Murray couldn't, Dave Derek Carr couldn't.

557
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 4: So you stop those guys.

558
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow you picked him off twice in the fourth quarter, Yeah,

559
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 3: and kept him out of the end zone.

560
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 8: Thank you, boyd.

561
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 3: Kept him out of the end zone. Look, Zach Wilson,

562
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 3: it's not even the paper cuts thing.

563
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 1: It's the big play.

564
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 3: It's they're down four and somehow he flings it long.

565
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 3: Garret Wilson gets it, and oh my gosh, they were

566
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 3: at the ten yard line.

567
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: Nuts and all of a sudden, the defense is fired up.

568
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 4: You're down with thirty seconds to go, and you need

569
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 4: to drive.

570
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: Do you have enough time for CJ?

571
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 3: You know, those kinds of nightmare scenarios play out in

572
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 3: my mind with Zach Wilson starting.

573
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 4: But let's be honest here. You got to take care

574
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 4: of your business, right.

575
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you do here.

576
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 2: But here's a few things about Zach Wilson, because I

577
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 2: know everybody's all. The Jets are a mess. Jets are

578
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: a mess.

579
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 8: Okay.

580
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: First of all, the Jets offense has scored eleven touchdowns

581
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 2: this year. Is that not that many? It's not that good.

582
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 2: It's really not that good. Now, Zach had a rough

583
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 2: game at Buffalo. Buffalo was coming off a loss and

584
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 2: really needed that one and beat them thirty two to six.

585
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: That was his last start. He was not great. He

586
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 1: was seven to fifteen eighty one yards a touchdown.

587
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 2: But if you look at his just his numbers, just

588
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 2: look at his numbers. He's had games where you go, dang,

589
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 2: that's not bad. Kansas City Week four. They lost that

590
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 2: game twenty three to twenty because he didn't get the

591
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: ball back. In that game, he was twenty eight to

592
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 2: thirty nine, seventy two percent completion percentage, two forty five

593
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 2: to touchdowns, no interceptions. Now, he did have the fumble

594
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 2: that the Chiefs are able to take advantage of uh

595
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: later on, but that was against.

596
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 1: Kansas City against Philadelphia.

597
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: Numbers weren't great, but he led them to twenty points

598
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 2: and beat Philadelphia. So for twelve weeks of the year,

599
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 2: the only quarterback to beat the Philadelphia Eagles was Zach Wilson.

600
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: That's incredible.

601
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 2: Against the Chargers, they got thumped twenty seven and six

602
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 2: thirty three of forty nine for two sixty three. No touchdowns,

603
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 2: no picks. I mean, I'm not gonna sit here and

604
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 2: tell you no touchdowns, no picks is great, But thirty

605
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 2: three and forty nine sixty seven percent against the Charger defense.

606
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: You gave up the punter return. I mean that was

607
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: a meltdown.

608
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: He led a last minute, less than a minute, last

609
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 2: minute drive, last half minute drive against the Giants down

610
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 2: by three to get a miracle field goal off and

611
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 2: beat the Giants like there's there's just a there's just

612
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 2: enough there that makes you really I don't know, it's

613
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 2: really a not besetting me.

614
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 1: I'm glad he's back in there.

615
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 2: For him, I'd like to see Zach Wilson succeed because

616
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 2: everything he's been through, I don't want him to succeed

617
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,239
Speaker 2: on Sunday, But I'm with you. He's got athleticism, He

618
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 2: can move. He's got a howitzer of a right arm.

619
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 2: So those plays were like the one against Las Vegas.

620
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 2: The Hilmary how he a got the ball off is

621
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 2: incredible to.

622
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: Me and me.

623
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 2: He got it all the way in the end zone.

624
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: He gave his guys a shot. So the defense is

625
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 2: going to keep it close. And so it's one of

626
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 2: those plays that Wilson makes. Where you go, are you

627
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,199
Speaker 2: kidding me? Rewind five years twenty eighteen, we go up

628
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 2: to New York in a must win sitch against the Jets.

629
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 2: Quarterback Sam Darnold hasn't done much rookie, you know, third

630
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 2: overall pick. What can he do? And he has that

631
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 2: offense rolling, yep, rolling against our defense rolling, and that

632
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 2: was a relatively healthy Texans defense, and he's moving it

633
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 2: up and down the field and we're fighting for our lives.

634
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 2: And thankfully Hop made it catching the end zone. And

635
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 2: Hop was Hop in twenty eighteen. So we win that

636
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 2: game twenty nine to twenty two. But Darnold scared the

637
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 2: fool out of us the entire way. And that Jets

638
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: defense compared to this one, stunk. This defense they're good,

639
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 2: they're a different level.

640
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 3: How about this against the Texans two years ago, Wilson

641
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 3: fourteen of twenty four that's fifty eight percent, no touchdowns,

642
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 3: one pick, and he did have a rushing touchdown in

643
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 3: that game.

644
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was a sneak or not.

645
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 3: He was two carries three yards, so it was short

646
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 3: range whoever it was.

647
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 1: But they won the game.

648
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 3: And my point is this, when they do win games,

649
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 3: he doesn't put up great numbers. It's not because of him.

650
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 3: It's because maybe he hasn't hurt them that much. And

651
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 3: if they're running the ball with Breeze Hall, whatever else

652
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,199
Speaker 3: they can throw at you, Dalvin Cook, whatever they can

653
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 3: throw at you. I haven't fully prepped the Jets yet,

654
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 3: but if they're able to get something going on the

655
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 3: ground and their defense is stuffing you and maybe get

656
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 3: a turnover or two, this could be a problematic situation

657
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 3: and the Texans cannot afford. We know this, They know this,

658
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 3: and Demiko is gonna put Carolina up on every bulletin

659
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 3: board of the building. I would imagine every dry erase

660
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 3: board Carolina. Remember that, Remember Charlotte, because how else I mean,

661
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 3: that's just one of the ways you're going to motivate

662
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 3: these guys. I think they're fired up to go to

663
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: New York and play football. Though, Johnny, that's how it

664
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: should be. When you play the Jets or the Giants.

665
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 3: You're going to New York, you're gonna play. Maybe that

666
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 3: doesn't mean a thing to the players, but I know

667
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 3: that everybody's got to pay full attention to this because

668
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 3: the defense is good enough to kill you on.

669
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 4: The field, and you better be ready.

670
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 2: And not only that, they could score safety last week.

671
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 2: Ashton Davis and Quinn Williams combined to hit the Jeon

672
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 2: Robinson's safety. Week before against the Dolphins. The only reason

673
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: the Jets were in the games cause Brandon Eckles ran

674
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 2: a touchdown back in the first half.

675
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: On the first second quarter of this first half, they

676
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: could score two.

677
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: That's the that's the issue is all of a sudden,

678
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 2: you make a mistake and you know, DJ Reed takes

679
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: one to the house and you're down seven to nothing,

680
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 2: and you're like, man, their defense is good enough to

681
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 2: hold up seven nothing.

682
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's how good that defense is.

683
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 3: I had a big takeaway though from the Tamico press

684
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 3: conference today.

685
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 4: Run the ball, not just run the ball.

686
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 3: They want stroud to be stroud and do Stroud like things, Yep,

687
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 3: But he said something i'll paraphrase here that we're we

688
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 3: don't need to overcomplicate running the football. We need to

689
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 3: play smash mouth. We need to smash people out of

690
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 3: the way, get out of the way, and running backs

691
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 3: hit those lanes go. So that was my version of

692
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 3: what he said, and I think that it's good advice,

693
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 3: and we'll see what takes here with this offense going

694
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 3: to New York and trying to run the ball.

695
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 4: In addition to Stroud like things against the Jets, d.

696
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 2: Along those lines, the Jets have given up two two

697
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 2: hundred yard rushing performances, one against the Giants and one

698
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 2: against ironically, the Kansas City chief So the defense has

699
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 2: giving up some yards, but they've also had games where

700
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: they held the Giants to minus nine passing yards.

701
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they were right in it with the Chiefs.

702
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 8: Yeah.

703
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: Now that was Daniel Jones or whoever followed Jones and

704
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: Tommy DeVito and de Vito's first action. But point being like,

705
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: they'll give up some yards against the ground, and that's

706
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 2: where you really you'd love to be able to control

707
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: the game and get ahead and be able to move

708
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: it that way. And really force those guys that want

709
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 2: to pass rush. Dimico knows he knows that system. He

710
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 2: knows it inside and out. He knows exactly what they

711
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: want to do. And if they can, you can get

712
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 2: the third long. All of a sudden, they can start

713
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 2: getting into their exotics and you know, now you've got

714
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 2: a rookie facing that defense, and as great as cj As,

715
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 2: he's still seeing that defense for the first time. Hopefully

716
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: there will be some things he's seen in practice that

717
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 2: he can recall and go, oh, wait a second, I

718
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 2: know what this is.

719
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: I've seen this in practice.

720
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: There are some similarities, but there's some dudes on that

721
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 2: other side, including number ninety five, and that's the one

722
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 2: that worries me the most.

723
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,479
Speaker 3: And the latest version of the show. Numbers mean nothing.

724
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 3: Remember a few weeks ago, I said, oh, they're playing

725
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 3: the four out of bottom five rushing defenses in the league.

726
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 3: In the next five games. Whatever it was, it was

727
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,959
Speaker 3: a lot of bad rushing defense. Denver is last at

728
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 3: one forty nine surrendered on the ground per game, and

729
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 3: they couldn't run the ball in the second half versus

730
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 3: the Broncos. The Jets are fourth to last in this league.

731
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 3: So you just never know. It's all about them. They

732
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 3: can dictate things, they can make things happen on the ground.

733
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: They just got to do it. That's exactly right. It's

734
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: just got to happen.

735
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 2: The biggest thing in the run game is taking advantage

736
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 2: of ninety five wanting to get upfield. He's stud I mean,

737
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: Quinn Williams is as good as it gets. And this

738
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 2: is really the first time that they're facing one of

739
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 2: those guys. Last year there was this run of Dexter

740
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 2: Lawrence and Jeffrey Simmons. You didn't face Quinn Williams in

741
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 2: that group that you faced, but you faced like six

742
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: in a row Studs Interior Studs.

743
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: Well, now you face Williams.

744
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 2: Quinn Williams because his brother Williams is right behind him,

745
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 2: and he and Mosley are very very good. So this

746
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,479
Speaker 2: Jets defense, it's weird. The last couple of days, I've

747
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 2: kind of had this. I mean, I've watched them play,

748
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,520
Speaker 2: but I'm like, man, they're just bigger than life to me.

749
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 2: I watched him against the Falcons, I'm like, hey, I

750
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 2: think the Texas have got some things they can do.

751
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: Now.

752
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 2: I would hate for it to be in the rain.

753
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 2: But God, to deal with what you got. I mean,

754
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 2: it is what it is. Both teams are going to

755
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 2: have to deal with it. But if the Texas can

756
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: run the ball and it is poor weather, then you know,

757
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 2: hopefully that'll be an advantage for them. But the Falcons

758
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 2: made a couple of plays through the air. Mikeel Preuitt

759
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 2: made a diving catch in the end zone for the

760
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 2: Falcons for a touchdown, beating one of the safeties on

761
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 2: a steam route. So they're gonna be some things available.

762
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 2: You just got to be able to take advantage of them.

763
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 2: And to me, as many times as you could put

764
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 2: points on the board in this game, to me, if

765
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 2: you put up three, if you put up three every

766
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 2: other drive a touchdown mixed in, I think that's gonna

767
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 2: end up being enough.

768
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, be productive that way, and don't go three and out. No, no, Johnny,

769
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 3: it's it's about not turning them all over. Yes, it

770
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 3: really is. It's that simple. I mean you could talk

771
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 3: about getting three here, seven there. Yeah, sure, I mean,

772
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 3: obviously have to score points to win. Don't turn it over.

773
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: Take you plan on a long field, you'll be in

774
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 3: good shape.

775
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: To your point, they generated four turnovers against the Bills.

776
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 2: They won that game. They generated four turnovers against the Eagles,

777
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 2: they won that game. They generated two turnovers against the

778
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 2: Chiefs and near and barely barely lost that game. They

779
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 2: got moral victory around the league for that one.

780
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: Everyone was right.

781
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 2: They had three turnovers against the Broncos and won that game.

782
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 2: So you're right, turnovers are going to be absolutely massive.

783
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 2: Taking care of the football going to be huge, huge,

784
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 2: But offensively I mentioned earlier Michael pruittt tight end touchdown.

785
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 1: Hopefully Revin Jordan can be that guy.

786
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 2: He's stopping by for the slant next right here in

828
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:50,279

00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 8: I really appreciated the Miko.

Speaker 9: just used about you, fire and passion, fire and passion.

834
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 9: I take it back. You were drafted in twenty twenty one.

835
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 9: I'm curious, what was that welcome to the NFL moment

836
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 9: for you?

837
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 11: It was so different because one it was COVID year,

838
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 11: so it was it was like, you know, just the

839
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 11: whole different locker rooms and stuff. But for me, I

840
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 11: was blocking Derrick Rivers. It was like our first padded practice.

841
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 11: I was blocking Derrick Rivers and he just mushed me,

842
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 11: just mushed me to the dirt end. I was just

843
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,879
Speaker 11: like godly, like I had to just dust it off

844
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 11: and just you know, keep it pushing. But that was

845
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 11: definitely my welcome to the NFL moment.

846
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: Love that.

847
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 9: So you grew up in Vegas and then you went

848
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 9: to the U very different from Houston, Texas. What was

849
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 9: that transition like?

850
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 8: It was? Honestly it was.

851
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 11: At first it was hard because I'm you know, I'm

852
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 11: West Coast kid through and through.

853
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 8: It was hard for me to leave my family.

854
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,240
Speaker 11: But then once I got to Miami and the culture,

855
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 11: you know, I got a little taste of the culture

856
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 11: and just the family vibes that the university offered, it

857
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 11: was just I fitted extremely well.

858
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 6: It was.

859
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 8: It was huge blessing for me.

860
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 10: So what's been the biggest difference now being in Houston?

861
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 12: Food? Man?

862
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 11: I felt like in Miami, like the food was all right,

863
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 11: it was good, But Houston, the food out here is remarkable. Really, Yes,

864
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 11: I love it. My go to spots career garden if

865
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 11: you ever get the chance.

866
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 10: Yes, Okay, what should I get?

867
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 11: You can't go wrong with just Korean barbecue, but go

868
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 11: gear Kaive one of the two cook it right there.

869
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,280
Speaker 8: It's beautiful.

870
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 10: Okay, you've convinced me big Korean food grows.

871
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 8: Love it all right.

872
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 9: Well, now you're in your third year with the Texans

873
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 9: and you've kind of been through it when there was

874
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 9: a little bit harder times and now things are a

875
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 9: little easier, going better. So tell me what the differences

876
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,439
Speaker 9: you've seen in previous years to this year.

877
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,879
Speaker 11: Yeah, man, I think yeah, like you said, it was hard,

878
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 11: you know the past two years. You know, coaching changes,

879
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 11: quarterback changes, you know, just a whole bunch of stuff, man.

880
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 11: But I think the difference that this year offers between

881
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 11: the last two years is the camaraderie.

882
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 8: Is that the word camaraderie?

883
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, the camaraderie that the players have with one another,

884
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 11: and you know, we're really close, honestly, just the bonds

885
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 11: that we've created as a team. You know, we do

886
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 11: a lot of stuff out of the building. It's it's awesome, man,

887
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 11: It's it's real. It's a real brotherhood.

888
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 9: I feel like you can see a shift in the

889
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 9: energy on the field. Is it the same off the

890
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 9: field as well?

891
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, definitely.

892
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 11: Honestly, Actually, off the field world guys are a little

893
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 11: bit more.

894
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 8: You know.

895
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,359
Speaker 11: Joke is, when we're in the building, it's I saw

896
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 11: serious and we guys try to handle business. But out

897
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 11: of the field, you know, it's a lot of jokes.

898
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 9: So yeah, this is a team where everybody's friends, lots

899
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 9: of camaraderie.

900
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 8: Definitely love that.

901
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 9: So one of the things that is most important to

902
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 9: you is the my cause, my cleats. You had cleats

903
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 9: that were for your mother, Beverly and supporting breast cancer.

904
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 9: Just talk to me a little bit how much that

905
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 9: meant to you.

906
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 11: Yeah, my mom's my my rock man. She's She's definitely

907
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 11: my foundation. She's a huge reason as a part of

908
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 11: why I'm living my dream. So her her story, it's

909
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 11: just one of those things where it has to be told.

910
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 11: I feel like she has to be represented in the

911
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 11: NFL gives us a great opportunity to represent, you know,

912
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,479
Speaker 11: something we're passionate about. And my mom's just she's played

913
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 11: a huge part of my life, so I just had

914
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 11: to represent her.

915
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 10: When was it that she was diagnosed.

916
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 8: Two thousand and four?

917
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, and four, So how has that kind of been

918
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 9: working through that in your family life and still having

919
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 9: to go out there and try and put on a

920
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 9: show and play Greade football.

921
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, honestly, it's it was it. I was a kid,

922
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 11: so I was it was two thousand and four, she

923
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 11: was diagnosed. She beat it in two thousand and seven,

924
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 11: so I was a really young kid. I honestly don't

925
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 11: remember like a lot of this specific details. I remember

926
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 11: her becoming sick, you know, losing her hair, her nails

927
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 11: kind of being black and stuff like that.

928
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 8: But it's it's a testament to how she's raised us.

929
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 11: You know, if life's going to knock you down, but

930
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 11: you have to put one foot in the other and

931
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 11: just keep going.

932
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 8: So I think that's a testament to my mom.

933
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 9: I think that's kind of where some of your resilience

934
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 9: as an athlete athlete comes from them.

935
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 8: Definitely, for sure, definitely.

936
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,919
Speaker 10: All right, Well I saw that there was also date

937
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 10: on the sides of the cleats. What were those?

938
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 8: That's when she was diagnosed and that's when she beat it.

939
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 10: Yep, awesome. That's honestly a great story.

940
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 9: Well, what are some of the things that you're going

941
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 9: to be focusing on on the field for the rest

942
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 9: of the season?

943
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 8: Doing my job?

944
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 11: Honestly, you know, just capitalize on any opportunities that I get.

945
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 8: That's the main thing for me.

946
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 11: I don't want to, you know, put any extra pressure

947
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,520
Speaker 11: or or feel like I have to do anything extra.

948
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 11: Just go out there, do my job, whether it's you know,

949
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 11: pass blocking, run blocking, catching the ball, special teams.

950
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:29,919
Speaker 8: Just go out there and do my job.

951
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 9: Coming off such a great game, is it a little

952
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,439
Speaker 9: bit lighter air, a little bit easier to go about

953
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 9: the week knowing that you've got such a solid one

954
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 9: under the belt.

955
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,479
Speaker 11: No, not really, honestly, because I got to keep going.

956
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 11: I honestly, like everybody's saying sixty yards, you know, a

957
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 11: career high.

958
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 8: But to me, sixty.

959
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 11: Yards is so like like sixty yards is you can

960
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 11: get sixty yards and four catch, like three catches, like

961
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 11: that's not a big deal. You want to get the honeyarders.

962
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 11: You want to get the you know, big boy numbers.

963
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 11: So for me, no, I don't feel any sense of

964
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 11: relax or ease. I gotta keep my foot in. The

965
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 11: guy's got to keep going.

966
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 9: Well, that's what makes a great athlete, never being satisfied. Well,

967
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 9: we look forward to seeing you play again this Sunday.

968
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 9: Thank you so much for sitting down with me, Brevan.

969
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,239
Speaker 2: You me appreciate Kennedy for a stopping by, and of

970
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 2: course Brev for sitting the chair he was in with

971
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,919
Speaker 2: Mark and I this past week, and just a ball

972
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 2: of energy. Love the guy, Love what he's meant to

973
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 2: this team, love what he meets, this organization, and I

974
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 2: know that he's probably hurt a little bit.

975
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: Haven't heard the news.

976
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: They're shootings at UNLV, his hometown, UNLV University in Nevada,

977
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 2: Las Vegas. Not we're bred went the school, but I

978
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 2: know that Las Vegas has seen some shootings in the

979
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 2: past few years and it's just tough to go through.

980
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 2: So I know Brev has probably been feeling it for

981
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 2: his city there in Las Vegas. And we all do

982
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 2: all right, we get back. Let's talk to Bruce Feldman.

983
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 2: Bruce is a guy that was on the CJ. Stroud

984
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 2: train before anybody. I found this in my files and

985
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 2: I wanted to play this and I thought this would

986
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,359
Speaker 2: be a great night to do. Let's do it next

987
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 2: right here on Texans All Access. Looking back to this

988
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 2: Wednesday edition of Texans All Axis from the Hundaie Texans

989
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: Radio Studio.

990
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: I am John Harris, your host football and a sideline reporter.

991
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,320
Speaker 2: And back in July, the very first College Football Media

992
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 2: Days was in Arlington for the Big Twelves, the last

993
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 2: year of the Big Twelve with Texas O you. There

994
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,359
Speaker 2: are a lot of people there and obviously I can

995
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 2: pick up a lot of different interviews as it pertains

996
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 2: to college football, pertains to the Taxak Texas Bowl, but

997
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 2: also there's there are gonna be people in that building

998
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 2: that have followed the rookies or young players that we

999
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 2: have with the Texans. And one that I know was very,

1000
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 2: very heavily in favor of c J. Stroud over any

1001
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: other quarterback in this draft class was a guy that's

1002
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:43,960
Speaker 2: got to be a friend of mine, Bruce Feldman from

1003
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 2: the Athletic and I was able to catch up with

1004
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 2: him at the Big twelve media Days. So this file,

1005
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,239
Speaker 2: I don't know why it popped up. I just was

1006
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 2: cleaning my computer and I popped up and I thought, hey.

1007
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: I remember that.

1008
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 2: That was when Bruce talked about CJ. And he talked

1009
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,280
Speaker 2: about Will Anderson. Hey let's let's let's play this again

1010
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 2: just so we can get a chance to hear this

1011
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: is this great stuff from Bruce Feldman talking about why

1012
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,240
Speaker 2: he was so high on CJ.

1013
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 13: Strout One.

1014
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 14: They're getting somebody who's very very accurate, incredibly accurate, and

1015
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 14: I think you were getting a guy who has no

1016
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 14: real flaws.

1017
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,280
Speaker 13: He's got pretty good size.

1018
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,840
Speaker 14: I think I love the temperament, you know, and I

1019
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 14: think it wasn't quite here. It was at the Star

1020
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 14: where I think the opening was one year where he

1021
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 14: outperformed everybody and he you know, including the guy who

1022
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 14: went oh first, overall they were, you know, like he.

1023
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 8: He was at his best.

1024
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 14: Even you look, when Georgia was a it was the

1025
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 14: most talented defense in the country.

1026
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,320
Speaker 13: He had them on the ropes.

1027
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 8: You know.

1028
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 13: It's interesting in.

1029
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,399
Speaker 14: This regard because a lot of talk around the draft

1030
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 14: came up at like the S two cognition test, and

1031
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 14: I remember talking to an NFL quarterback coach for store

1032
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 14: I did on the athletic right before the draft, and

1033
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 14: he was like, you know, I had him first until

1034
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 14: those you know, some of those results came out and

1035
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 14: he goes but like you don't see any of the

1036
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 14: issues on film, and everybody knows he's really smart. Like

1037
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 14: I think, like if I was, and again I'm not

1038
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 14: a not a GM, if I had the first pick

1039
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 14: on the draft, I would dig him. No knock on

1040
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 14: Bryce Young, but but Bryce Song was not a big man.

1041
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 14: At some point he is going to take some big

1042
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 14: hits and how he's gonna respond That looks you know,

1043
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 14: Cjil takes probably some big hits too, and we'll see

1044
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 14: how he holds up. But he's a lot more likely,

1045
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 14: I would think to be durable, and I, you know,

1046
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 14: I just think he's going to be terrific.

1047
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:35,839
Speaker 1: So we said that.

1048
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 2: I'm just like, yes, man, that would be that would

1049
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 2: be awesome. But we also had another rookie we drafted

1050
00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 2: in the first round that was Will Anderson junior, so

1051
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 2: I wanted to get Bruce's thoughts on Will Anderson junior.

1052
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: Bees were just as impressive.

1053
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 14: To be honest, there was a legit discussion from you know,

1054
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 14: the conversation I with Alabama people in that staff is like,

1055
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 14: is this the best player Nick sabe and has had

1056
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 14: on defense, you know, since he's been there, and think

1057
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 14: of all the guys who've come through there.

1058
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 13: Right, he just makes a lot of plays.

1059
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 14: And I know that at some point there was like

1060
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 14: a little bit of like, oh, you know, it's not

1061
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,479
Speaker 14: like he's It was almost like the he's not quite

1062
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 14: Miles Garrett Athletically.

1063
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,439
Speaker 13: I'm like, okay, and how many people are Superman? Yeah,

1064
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 13: it was like whatever, And.

1065
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 14: He just makes a ton of plays and everybody knows

1066
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 14: he's out there and he still makes him.

1067
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 13: People love his character.

1068
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 14: You know, they got too like no brainers, right, you know,

1069
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 14: so I don't you know, I mean, I don't know

1070
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 14: what the value is in terms of like, Okay, they

1071
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 14: gave up too much of this because the guy it

1072
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 14: turns out to be like a six time pro bowler,

1073
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 14: Like is that good enough to be.

1074
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 13: The you know?

1075
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 14: Like and I get it, Like it's funny when whenever

1076
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 14: I think of the Texans, like I you know, I

1077
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 14: joke about this as like because I lived near Dave Anderson,

1078
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 14: you know, like Colorado State legend, but like, you know

1079
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 14: he was there when when when you know, Mario Williams

1080
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 14: was you know, they're at the top of the draft

1081
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 14: and everything, and there are certain guys who are like, okay,

1082
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:05,240
Speaker 14: what is that value?

1083
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 13: You know they have like one amazing season.

1084
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 14: You're like, okay, we see the talent, but like, ultimately,

1085
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 14: where is the production? I mean we're not talking, you know,

1086
00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 14: Like I think I'd be very surprised that people are

1087
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 14: not very happy with the pick.

1088
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 2: Years from now, I had pretty good recall about what

1089
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 2: Bruce had talked about when I saw this file, but

1090
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 2: I still wanted to go back and listen to it,

1091
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 2: and it made me feel that much better about CJ

1092
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 2: and Will, because I know Bruce covers the game. He

1093
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 2: talks to people all the time, but he's a smart

1094
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 2: football guy.

1095
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: He knows what he's looking at, he knows what he's seeing.

1096
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:40,320
Speaker 2: And with CJ and Will, it was just interesting how

1097
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 2: positive he was that those two guys were gonna end

1098
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 2: up turning into big time bolers, and they already have

1099
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 2: in these first two years. Now, there are some other

1100
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,880
Speaker 2: guys that have risen as well. We'll get into that

1101
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:57,279

Speaker 2: the four and eighth squad, the Texans coming to town,

1105
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 2: what this game can mean for both sides. Bob was

Speaker 2: shoosing play by playman for the New York Jets with

1146
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:17,880

1147
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 2: in those games. So it is so since week six

1148
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 2: and we didn't play in week pybe not playing week seven?

1149
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't play in week seven. We play week eight.

1150
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 2: So well, six through week thirteen, what is that that.

1151
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: Eight weeks total?

1152
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 2: Four of those every other week basically was an AFC

1153
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,360
Speaker 2: defensive or offensive player of the week for your Texans.

1154
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 2: Congratulations with Derek Stingley Junior. I know there has been

1155
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 2: so much discussion about that pick sauce versus staying all

1156
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff.

1157
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 1: Well, this honor, doesn't, you know, squelch any of that.

1158
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a long, you know, long careers for

1159
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 2: both of them, long debated for a long time. But

1160
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,000
Speaker 2: I do know Derek Stingley Junior is playing his best

1161
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 2: football here for the Texans, and it's damn good. And

1162
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 2: that's the most important thing to be recognized.

1163
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: Is great.

1164
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,760
Speaker 2: But he is playing some damn good football for the Texans,

1165
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 2: and that's awesome. It's also awesome are the two men

1166
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 2: that will be calling this game for the Texans. You know,

1167
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 2: the voice of the Texans, Mark vandermir the voice of

1168
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 2: the Jets is Bob was Shoesing. Hear him on ESPN

1169
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 2: doing college games as well, but he also does the Jets.

1170
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 2: We've talked to him often when the Texans have matched

1171
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 2: up with the Jets and it's time for Bob was

1172
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 2: shoes and step in man behind the Mike's Mark and

1173
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: Bob right.

1174
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,840
Speaker 3: Here Jordas nown Texans Radios. Bob was shoes in the

1175
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:41,959
Speaker 3: voice of the New York Jets and so many other things. Bob,

1176
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:43,839
Speaker 3: it's great to have you on and I know it's

1177
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 3: a busy time of year for you. We really appreciate

1178
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 3: the visit. So tell me what is your general assessment,

1179
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 3: your general take on what has happened to the Jets

1180
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 3: this year. Everyone talks about Aaron Rodgers and there's so

1181
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 3: much more going on. What do you think of the

1182
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,240
Speaker 3: way the twenty twenty three campaign has transpired.

1183
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 12: Aaron Rodgers got hurt. The period stopped. That's it. So,

1184
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 12: I mean, I would love to say that.

1185
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 6: And look, there is more.

1186
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 12: They're you know, their wide receivers have underperformed, the offensive

1187
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 12: line has been decimated by injuries. You know, there's definitely

1188
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 12: other reasons as to why they're having a tough time.

1189
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:27,720
Speaker 12: But Aaron Rodgers got hurt, and it was all began

1190
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 12: with Aaron Rodgers and ended with Aaron Rodgers. That's he

1191
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 12: makes you right when you're wrong, and so that's it.

1192
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 12: That's the you know, basically, their house burned to the

1193
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 12: ground four plays into their season, and that, you know,

1194
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,080
Speaker 12: kind of the end of the story. You know, I

1195
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 12: hate to say it, but that really is true.

1196
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,920
Speaker 3: Well, still competitive in a lot of games, and I

1197
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:52,719
Speaker 3: think a lot of that has to do with the defense.

1198
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 3: So tell me about the defense, Bob, and how good

1199
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 3: they can be. I know you see some high point

1200
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 3: totals as well, but a lot of that is because

1201
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 3: the offense is unable to carry its share of the load,

1202
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,320
Speaker 3: I would think, But what.

1203
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 1: Do you think of the Jets defense?

1204
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:07,320
Speaker 4: Overall?

1205
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 12: The defense has done everything that could be reasonably asked

1206
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 12: of it to try to keep them in games as

1207
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,920
Speaker 12: best they can. I mean, like the defense in certain

1208
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 12: games obviously, when you're playing against you know, the Bills

1209
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,720
Speaker 12: and the Dolphins, and you know, teams that can score

1210
00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 12: in bunches, at some point they're going to wilt because

1211
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 12: they just see the offense not putting any points up.

1212
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 12: It's just human nature that, you know, you can't, like,

1213
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 12: you can't play mistake free football, you know, every possession

1214
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 12: of every game, and that's basically what they're asked to do.

1215
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 12: So like this past weekend a perfect example. I mean,

1216
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:52,839
Speaker 12: you know, they were down anywhere from three to five

1217
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 12: points or whatever for basically the entire game. The defense

1218
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 12: got stopped after stop after stop after stop, and the

1219
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 12: offense and can't score a touchdown. Anybody who's actually watched

1220
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 12: them play would say that they have a top five

1221
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,799
Speaker 12: defense in the NFL, and unfortunately, it looks like they're

1222
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 12: gonna end up potentially in the top five of the

1223
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,440
Speaker 12: draft with the top five defense in the NFL, because

1224
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 12: you know, the offense just can't score points.

1225
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 3: Bob was Shoes and voice of the Jets, joining us

1226
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 3: on Texans Radio. We talk about CJ. Moseley, about Williams,

1227
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 3: about the other Williams, about a lot of the players

1228
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 3: on the Jets, d Jermaine Johnson. But give me a

1229
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 3: few guys who are performing well in your opinion, guys

1230
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 3: that Texans fans need to watch out for.

1231
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 1: CJ.

1232
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 4: Stroud and company come to town.

1233
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, obviously CJ is going to try and

1234
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,520
Speaker 12: throw the ball, right, like even with without Tank Dell,

1235
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,759
Speaker 12: that's still the strength of your team is they are

1236
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 12: going to try and make chunk plays happen through the air,

1237
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 12: and that is probably playing to the Jets' strength because

1238
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 12: the Jets have with Ramaine Johnson, Bright Huff, a couple

1239
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 12: of guys you didn't mention that are really really good

1240
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 12: pass rushers, DJ Reid and Sauce Gardner, really good corners,

1241
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 12: you know, like they they stay in games, are forcing

1242
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,319
Speaker 12: you to throw the pass rush hits the quarterback and

1243
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 12: the defense takes the ball away, that they beat the Eagles.

1244
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 12: The Eagles have won two losses now. They lost the

1245
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,799
Speaker 12: arguably the best team in football yesterday and they lost

1246
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 12: to the Jets. While everybody of course shakes their head,

1247
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 12: have they possibly lose to the Jets? Well, because the

1248
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 12: Jets dominated the game on defense and took the ball

1249
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 12: away four times, and they have that capability. So right now,

1250
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,319
Speaker 12: even though the offense is struggling as as badly as

1251
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 12: you can struggle, like one of these teams that's in

1252
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,919
Speaker 12: a playoff race down the stretch here that the Jets play,

1253
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,720
Speaker 12: Jets will probably beat them because they're you know, odds

1254
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 12: are they'll have one more game where the defense just

1255
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,280
Speaker 12: hits the quarterback and knocks the ball out and scoops

1256
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,880
Speaker 12: and scores or you know, does something to flip the

1257
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 12: game because they're that good. And that's what they did

1258
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,839
Speaker 12: in the Eagles. I mean, in the Eagle game, they

1259
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:08,880
Speaker 12: scored one touchdown and the Eagles let them score the

1260
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 12: touchdown that they scored, so like their offense didn't produce

1261
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 12: a touchdown without the Eagles laying down and letting them

1262
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 12: in the end zone. And yet they won the game

1263
00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 12: against a team that might go to the Super Bowl

1264
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 12: because their defense has that capability. So if you're a

1265
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 12: Texans fan, that's what you have to worry about it,

1266
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 12: that's what you have to guard against, is not letting

1267
00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 12: the Jet defense beat you.

1268
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 3: Bob one more on the quarterback situation now, and as

1269
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,719
Speaker 3: we record this, it's still in flux. I guess it's

1270
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:37,000
Speaker 3: always in flux this season for the New York Jets.

1271
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 3: But what have you seen from Zach Wilson that could

1272
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 3: give him some hope for the future here? As it's

1273
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 3: not like he's an older quarterback. He's in year three,

1274
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 3: still trying to find his way. What have you seen

1275
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 3: from him that can be built upon in his career?

1276
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 12: Well, I mean, the thing that he brings is physical

1277
00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:00,440
Speaker 12: traits that can't be taught. Right, Like, he can make rose,

1278
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:07,319
Speaker 12: He can do things with his legs physically that maybe

1279
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 12: three or four or five other quarterbacks in the league

1280
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 12: can do, like a top five or top six quarterback,

1281
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 12: like athletically like Tua Tongue Bai Loa couldn't dream of

1282
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 12: throwing the ball off platform with the velocity of Zach Wilson. Obviously,

1283
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:33,080
Speaker 12: a massive amount more goes into playing quarterback than just

1284
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 12: being physically gifted, as his proof of what a quarterback

1285
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,319
Speaker 12: like Tua does and the fact that Zach has been

1286
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 12: benched because just can't score touchdowns. So like the you're

1287
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:47,160
Speaker 12: gonna get an offensive coordinator or a head coach out

1288
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:51,040
Speaker 12: there where their ego is gonna be oh well, I mean,

1289
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,720
Speaker 12: look at the highlights of this kid when he makes

1290
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 12: a play. I could coach that, like, let me have that,

1291
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,400
Speaker 12: let me tribes stay some Now. Do I think that

1292
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,480
Speaker 12: you know there's a coach or an office cordinator out

1293
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,480
Speaker 12: there that can do that for Zach's sake, I hope.

1294
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,399
Speaker 12: So I would love to see him succeed. I think

1295
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 12: he needs to go to a team that has a

1296
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:15,720
Speaker 12: really good offensive line so he can stand back there

1297
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,560
Speaker 12: and do the thing that he has a hard time

1298
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 12: with and that is process and read and see. But

1299
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 12: if you are able to put a structure around him

1300
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:29,920
Speaker 12: that supports him in that way, I mean he physically

1301
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 12: he can do things that very very few guys can do.

1302
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:38,160
Speaker 12: And you know, the talent is is like tempting. I

1303
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 12: mean that you know that the talent is intriguing when

1304
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 12: there will be times like if you're his agent and

1305
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 12: you went back and found the ten best plays this

1306
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 12: season that he's made and put up a little ten

1307
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 12: play highlight, cut up and show that. You know, if

1308
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 12: there was a proverbial coach from Mars that had never

1309
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:56,120
Speaker 12: seen him play, that coach will go whoa and give

1310
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,400
Speaker 12: me this guy. I can make this work. This guy

1311
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 12: look at the throws he can make. But the problem,

1312
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 12: obviously is there's so much more that goes into the

1313
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,960
Speaker 12: mental side of playing that position, and that's where he

1314
00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 12: just needs to be able to develop.

1315
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:12,720
Speaker 3: Bob, with Chuzen joining us on Texan's radio voice of

1316
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 3: the New York Jets AFC East, question, more surprising to

1317
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 3: you the Bills being six and six or the Patriots

1318
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 3: being two and ten?

1319
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,240
Speaker 13: Bob, to me, the Bills.

1320
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 12: I think when we all looked at the Patriots going

1321
00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 12: into this season, the only reason that anyone thought they

1322
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 12: were going to be anything other than a really bad

1323
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 12: team was well, it's Bill Belichick, right Like, Bill Belichick

1324
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 12: is the coach, and he's a genius, and he just

1325
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 12: won't be able to have a team be this beat.

1326
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 12: He'll figure out a way, and ultimately it's really the

1327
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 12: talent of your team that determines that's our failure of

1328
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 12: your team. I mean, look, coaching is very important. Gramatically,

1329
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 12: play calling, all of that is very important. But funny

1330
00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 12: people are calling for Joe Douglass and Roberts Zala's heads

1331
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,919
Speaker 12: here in New York, left and right in the media.

1332
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:08,800
Speaker 12: All of those same people acknowledge that if Aaron Rodgers

1333
00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 12: had never gotten hurt, the Jets would probably be you know,

1334
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 12: eight and four or nine and three because of how

1335
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 12: well the defense plays and Aaron Rodgers to be able

1336
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 12: to score you know, twenty one to twenty four points

1337
00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 12: a game. So it just goes to show you, like

1338
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 12: how little people actually understand or believe it has to

1339
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 12: do with coaching. Because if you're out of one side

1340
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 12: of your mouth saying fire the Jets head coach and

1341
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 12: fire the general manager because of the record and how

1342
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 12: bad it's been this year. But at the same time,

1343
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 12: we think they'd maybe be in first place if Aaron

1344
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 12: Rodgers had gotten hurt. So he's a good general manager

1345
00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,200
Speaker 12: and a good coach if the quarterback's healthy, But all

1346
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 12: of a sudden, it's a bad general manager and a

1347
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 12: bad coach because the quarterback got hurt. So to me,

1348
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 12: it's it's the talent of your team. And anybody that

1349
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 12: looked at that Patriot roster, I thought they were going

1350
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 12: to be anything better than you know, a four or

1351
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 12: five six win team. I don't know what they were

1352
01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 12: looking at. That's what I thought they would be. I

1353
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 12: thought they were clearly a last place team talent wise

1354
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:08,240
Speaker 12: in the division. And I mean they mentioned their quarterback.

1355
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,880
Speaker 12: Their quarterback didn't get hurt, right, the Jets at least

1356
01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 12: lost their quarterback. Their season is fall falling amart because

1357
01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 12: Aaron Rodgers got hurt. At Kellent didn't get hurt. He's

1358
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 12: just not played well.

1359
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 3: Bob, ESPN NHL hockey, I know you gotta love it.

1360
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,640
Speaker 1: How much do you love it? And you went to BC?

1361
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 3: Were you calling hockey on the student station at BC

1362
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 3: when you were there? And obviously college hockey in Boston

1363
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 3: is huge. How do you enjoy doing the NHL on

1364
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 3: ESPN share with us some hockey play by play stuff

1365
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,960
Speaker 3: and how much you it's a love for you?

1366
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's a blast. You know, I was a you know,

1367
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,440
Speaker 12: college hockey broadcaster, like we all were. Right, you'd go

1368
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 12: to your college radio station and you know when I

1369
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:54,080
Speaker 12: was in college. I watched NHL level players in college.

1370
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 12: I mean, if you're calling games for BC or Boston

1371
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 12: University or Maine or prop Evidence, those schools have NHL

1372
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 12: players on their roster, so you're basically calling like minor

1373
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:10,240
Speaker 12: league NHL hockey at that level. And I've i called

1374
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 12: games that involved first round draft choices and Olympians. So

1375
01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 12: I've always loved the sport. And when I was working

1376
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,760
Speaker 12: for Madison Square Garden, I was like the backup guy

1377
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 12: for the Rangers as well, so I would call twenty

1378
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:27,920
Speaker 12: to twenty five Rangers games the year. And then when

1379
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:32,680
Speaker 12: ESPN hired me full time, it was kind of like

1380
01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 12: ships passing in the night. I came to ESPN as

1381
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 12: the television rights basically went from ESPN to NBC. And

1382
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 12: now I obviously would have always hoped that hockey could

1383
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 12: be a part of what I would have done there.

1384
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 12: Now they brought it back, you know, after aving a ESPN.

1385
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 12: But seventeen or eighteen years, we were lucky enough to be,

1386
01:01:56,840 --> 01:02:00,520
Speaker 12: you know, reunited with the NHL, and so it is, uh, yeah,

1387
01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 12: it's a blast, and you know, it's a fantastic league.

1388
01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 12: I'm hoping at some point when the NHL expands, that

1389
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,600
Speaker 12: Houston gets another shot at it, because that's what we

1390
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,600
Speaker 12: keep hearing that. You know, if if the NHL us

1391
01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:21,160
Speaker 12: a couple of more teams that on the short list

1392
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 12: of cities that that could be in the mix to

1393
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 12: get an expansion team, the NHL might reappear in Houston,

1394
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:28,040
Speaker 12: and that would be fun.

1395
01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 3: What's been the closest call you've had between calling a

1396
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 3: Jets game and some of your ESPN duties.

1397
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 12: Oh jeez, Yeah, I've had a couple, you know, like

1398
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 12: when you get the We had one two years ago

1399
01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 12: as a good example. I don't know if you've had

1400
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 12: to like dodge bullets on Saturdays to get to where

1401
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 12: the Technics are on Sunday. I had a game at

1402
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 12: Ole Miss a couple of years ago, like a three

1403
01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 12: thirty or not sorry noon game from New three thirty

1404
01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:01,880
Speaker 12: game basically, but it was a new start. We had

1405
01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:04,520
Speaker 12: to high tail it to Memphis right after the game

1406
01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 12: was over and make a flight from Memphis to Atlanta

1407
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 12: and Atlanta to wherever I was going for the Jets

1408
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 12: and outs. And of course it's like early October in

1409
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 12: Memphis and there's a lightning delay. I was sitting there

1410
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 12: with like a two hour lightning delay in Memphis or

1411
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:27,760
Speaker 12: in Oxford, Mississippi, scrambling at halftime on our phones to

1412
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,800
Speaker 12: try and figure out what to do, and all of

1413
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,600
Speaker 12: a sudden, all the you know, collectively, myself, my spot,

1414
01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 12: my stats guy, and dan Orlabski, who I was working

1415
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 12: with at the time, we all realized that we're not

1416
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,520
Speaker 12: making the flight out of Memphis. But all of us

1417
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 12: were on the same flight to go to Atlanta to

1418
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,680
Speaker 12: then get on flights from Atlanta and scatter to wherever

1419
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 12: we were all going. Everyone had flights that probably were

1420
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:55,000
Speaker 12: in the you know, ten ten thirty range out of Atlanta.

1421
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 12: Dan was like, well, if we just drive really fast

1422
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,800
Speaker 12: to Atlanta, we might be able to make our second

1423
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 12: flights that way. And so we called up and got

1424
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,520
Speaker 12: someone from Disney Corporate Travel on the phone and said,

1425
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 12: here's what we need. Everybody needs. The flight out of

1426
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 12: Memphis canceled, but don't cancel the flight side of Atlanta.

1427
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:17,520
Speaker 12: And that rental car that you have returned to Memphis.

1428
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 12: That rental cars now returned to Atlanta. And we got

1429
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 12: into a car after the game was over, and four

1430
01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 12: hundred and fifty miles later we were in the Atlanta

1431
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 12: Airport running to make our flights and we got out.

1432
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 12: You know, you always figure out a way.

1433
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,160
Speaker 4: It's just, but it can be Dicey absolutely well.

1434
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 3: My broadcast partner Andre Were has had a few close calls,

1435
01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,640
Speaker 3: never missed one though, so that's good. Hey, Bob, thanks

1436
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:43,040
Speaker 3: so much for the time, and we look forward to

1437
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:45,720
Speaker 3: visiting with you on Sunday in the booth, got Mark all.

1438
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,320
Speaker 2: Right, awesome stuff there from Bob was shoes in and

1439
01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,960
Speaker 2: Mark Vanuery. We get back, take a look at the

1440
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 2: injury report. How does it look this week? The last

1441
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 2: few weeks have been sort of gory and not so good,

1442
01:04:57,160 --> 01:04:58,800
Speaker 2: but how about this week? What does it look like?

1443
01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 2: And we're going the Lab with my man Drew Doherty.

1444
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:10,200
Speaker 2: That's next right here on Texans All Access. Here we

1445
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 2: go on a Wednesday edition to Texans All Access from

1446
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 2: the Hoday Texans Radio Studio. I'm John Harris, Football Hanto

1447
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 2: Southern Reporter and one half of the In the Lab podcast,

1448
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 2: my man Drew Dorty.

1449
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 1: You got to go check it out.

1450
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 2: Drew has been adding other interviews and things that he's

1451
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 2: been doing, so in the Lab is getting beefed up, baby,

1452
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 2: So you got to check that out. But we'll have

1453
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 2: the piece that Drew and I chatted with in just

1454
01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:34,880
Speaker 2: a second. But we got to hit the injury report

1455
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:38,800
Speaker 2: from Wednesday. We've been looking forward to this injury report

1456
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 2: for for a little while, the last few weeks, like Wednesday, like,

1457
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:44,400
Speaker 2: oh my god, we got to find out who's been hurt,

1458
01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 2: who's hurt, what's gonna happen from Sunday. We I mean,

1459
01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:50,919
Speaker 2: we've kind of been holding our breath about some guys

1460
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:52,680
Speaker 2: that have been on there. And obviously Tank Dell's not

1461
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 2: gonna show up on here. He was placed on IR

1462
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,800
Speaker 2: so his season, unfortunately, is over. The Textans also Madewo.

1463
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:03,480
Speaker 2: Other transactions, Texans signed Adrian Amos, who had previously been

1464
01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 2: with the Jets, so he comes here veteran safety. It's

1465
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 2: been around, and Chris Boyd has now been added to

1466
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,840
Speaker 2: the active roster. Corner played University. Texas does a lot

1467
01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:16,640
Speaker 2: of things being special teams as well. So Texan's making

1468
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 2: some roster moves as they always do. But the injury report,

1469
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 2: how bad is it? Well, I gotta say it's not

1470
01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 2: as bad as it's been, and that is a move

1471
01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:32,320
Speaker 2: in the right direction. DMPs on Wednesday, George Fant the hip,

1472
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:36,360
Speaker 2: Nevill hewittt hamstring, Lamy Tunsell and knee, Jimmy Ward's shoulder,

1473
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,919
Speaker 2: Robert Woods not injury related rests, so it says right there,

1474
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 2: Robert Woods rest imagine he's gonna be back.

1475
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:44,440
Speaker 1: All those guys.

1476
01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 2: I don't remember seeing Neville, but everybody else say at

1477
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,600
Speaker 2: least saw out there, which is good. Stephen participating practice

1478
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 2: limited participants, Will Anderson Junior, Noah Brown, Sheldon Rankins, and

1479
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz. Great to see Dalton in a limited participant.

1480
01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 2: Does not mean he's gonna be ready to go on Sunday,

1481
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:03,760
Speaker 2: but that's at least a step in the right direction.

1482
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 2: Missed him on Sunday. Hope to have him back. And

1483
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,919
Speaker 2: then polpicipant Dezel Perriman knee name not on there.

1484
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 1: CJ.

1485
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:12,840
Speaker 2: Strout. That's good off the injury report. Now on the

1486
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 2: Jets side of things, remember how we were talking about

1487
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 2: this earlier in the year. Everybody had busted up hands.

1488
01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 2: Denzel Perriman had one, Jake Hansen had one, Tybio Thomas

1489
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:25,520
Speaker 2: having like everybody had a hand issue. Well, where the Jets,

1490
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 2: it's ankles or anything starting with the A did not participate.

1491
01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:33,640
Speaker 2: Starting wide receiver and rookie from USM. SO then Miss

1492
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,640
Speaker 2: Jason Browning has an ankle. He went out, he got

1493
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 2: tackled low in the game against the Falcons and went

1494
01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 2: out and didn't come back. John Franklin, Myers, Stephen and

1495
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 2: f Austin ankle. That'd be a big one. He's always

1496
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:48,000
Speaker 2: been a thorn in our side. Bryce Hall starting running

1497
01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:51,960
Speaker 2: back ankle, ankle, ankle, ankle. Everybody's got ankles, Well, they've

1498
01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:55,760
Speaker 2: got injured ankles. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Don't expect to see

1499
01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:59,120
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. He's got the Achilles West Schweitzer starting off

1500
01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 2: its lineman. So those are all DNPS limited participants. McKay

1501
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 2: Beckton also starting offensive lineman, left tackle dealing with the knee,

1502
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 2: Tyler Conklin, Billy Turner, Quincy Williams, the brother Quinn Williams.

1503
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 2: They're all limited participants in practice. So for the first

1504
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:20,880
Speaker 2: time in a while, the Texans injury report not so bad,

1505
01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 2: not as bad as it's been.

1506
01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:24,840
Speaker 1: So is that a good sign? I don't know.

1507
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,080
Speaker 2: We'll find out, but it's at least good to see

1508
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 2: names like Dalton Schultz inlimited and not DNP. That's at

1509
01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 2: least a good step. We'll see where it continues. At

1510
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,240
Speaker 2: that point, where it's going to continue now is with

1511
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,960
Speaker 2: my man Drew Doherty. As we go in the lap,

1512
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:41,799
Speaker 2: let's rock.

1513
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:45,360
Speaker 15: Big win last Saturday, big game this week against it.

1514
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 15: This looks like on paper a really really shaky New

1515
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,680
Speaker 15: York Jets team. But before we get into all that,

1516
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,920
Speaker 15: what's your favorite thing about taking a trip to New

1517
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,680
Speaker 15: Jersey slash New York with the Houston Texans.

1518
01:08:57,680 --> 01:08:57,840
Speaker 8: Done?

1519
01:08:57,840 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 15: You've done a few of these over the years, Yeah,

1520
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,960
Speaker 15: she guy said, used, done a few of these almost.

1521
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, used, used on a few of these.

1522
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 2: Uh, you know the last time, you know, last time

1523
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:11,120
Speaker 2: we went to face the Giants last year. Last year

1524
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 2: we got in later for some reason, there was something

1525
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:15,200
Speaker 2: wrong like the trip.

1526
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:16,559
Speaker 1: I don't know why we got in later.

1527
01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,679
Speaker 2: I just remember that that that was a fun a trip,

1528
01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 2: just because I kind of hung in the hotel and

1529
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:24,240
Speaker 2: that was that. But a few years ago, my nephews

1530
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:26,639
Speaker 2: were both living in New York and they love football,

1531
01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 2: They love sports.

1532
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:29,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I love those two to death.

1533
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 2: And so we met up in We met up in

1534
01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:34,880
Speaker 2: Grench village, had dinner at a great time. And then

1535
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 2: the Texans went out and beat the Jets on that Saturday,

1536
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:38,599
Speaker 2: which was cool.

1537
01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:43,840
Speaker 1: That was a that was eighteen fourteen. Uh, you and

1538
01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:47,920
Speaker 1: I Jay, we had a good time roaming New York.

1539
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:51,280
Speaker 7: We got there on Friday for a Sunday that's the one.

1540
01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 2: All day Saturday, sleep in Saturday, all day Saturday.

1541
01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:58,240
Speaker 1: Then game on Sunday. Unfortunately lost to the Giants, but

1542
01:09:59,000 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 1: we're over for the Giant.

1543
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:03,160
Speaker 2: It's but we at least beat the Jets there in

1544
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,680
Speaker 2: eighteen so hopefully we'll be zero for two Giants, but

1545
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,920
Speaker 2: for two for two against the Jets hopefully this Sunday.

1546
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 1: And you know you brought it up. It's a it's

1547
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:11,920
Speaker 1: an interesting squad.

1548
01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 2: On the other side, I mean, that defense is arguably

1549
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:16,479
Speaker 2: the best defense in the league.

1550
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:18,719
Speaker 1: You're not gonna find many there. Better.

1551
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 2: You can find some that are on the same line,

1552
01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 2: you know, kind of the same level. Maybe the forty

1553
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 2: nine ers, but not many. But the offense is such

1554
01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:30,120
Speaker 2: a disaster right now for multiple reasons. And you know

1555
01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:32,360
Speaker 2: you read this week that you know Zach Wilson going

1556
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 2: back in the lineup, is he not Trevor cit Like,

1557
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:36,880
Speaker 2: what are they doing to Boyle is the start of

1558
01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:38,439
Speaker 2: the last two weeks, but then he's cut and really

1559
01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 2: it's I don't know, it's it's kind of a it's

1560
01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:42,320
Speaker 2: kind of a mess. And of course you got Aaron

1561
01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:45,439
Speaker 2: Rodgers and all that, which we're not going to see.

1562
01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 2: But I don't know. It's just it's odd because your offense,

1563
01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:52,439
Speaker 2: which is you know, been doing some really good things

1564
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 2: now is to face the best defense in the league.

1565
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:56,679
Speaker 2: Your defense, which has been doing some good things, facing

1566
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,000
Speaker 2: arguably one of the worst offenses in the league. So

1567
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,720
Speaker 2: and there's gonna be weather issues, so you know, it's

1568
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 2: probably gonna be just an ugly, ugly game. But you

1569
01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:08,080
Speaker 2: just gotta hope that you do enough of the right

1570
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:10,760
Speaker 2: things right and do some of a lot of the

1571
01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:12,719
Speaker 2: simple things right. I you take care of the football

1572
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:14,320
Speaker 2: heked you last week, and hopefully you walk out of the.

1573
01:11:14,320 --> 01:11:18,080
Speaker 15: Re w john What if I told you, What if

1574
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:21,639
Speaker 15: I told you before Sunday's game that this would happen

1575
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 15: for the Texans. Hank Dell will be carted off the

1576
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:31,160
Speaker 15: field in the first half, Davis Mills would throw a

1577
01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:36,040
Speaker 15: pass at quarterback Cam Johnson would have to punt seven

1578
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 15: times in the game. You'd only go four of sixteen

1579
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 15: on third down, you'd only rush for three yards of carry.

1580
01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:49,920
Speaker 15: Stroud would get sacked five times. John, What if I

1581
01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 15: told you those things before the Texans even kicked off?

1582
01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,040
Speaker 1: What if I told you, well, I would throw one

1583
01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:55,559
Speaker 1: at you.

1584
01:11:56,120 --> 01:11:58,439
Speaker 2: I would say, what if I told you the Broncos

1585
01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,320
Speaker 2: will be zero for eleven I'm third down?

1586
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 1: That would like that? That would complicate everything because you're like, whoa.

1587
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:07,599
Speaker 15: And then you say, and Russell Wilson only threw for

1588
01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:10,320
Speaker 15: forty four yards the first half alone, the worst half

1589
01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:13,640
Speaker 15: of his entire career, which is probably gonna put him

1590
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 15: in Canton some day.

1591
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:17,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it would have. I would have been really confused.

1592
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:20,200
Speaker 2: I'd have been I don't know. And I think that's

1593
01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:22,439
Speaker 2: kind of the way the game went it. You know,

1594
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 2: it felt like it was a game that, you know,

1595
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:27,360
Speaker 2: at twenty two to ten, I thought, okay, you know,

1596
01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:29,760
Speaker 2: just put a couple more, a couple more, put another

1597
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 2: score up there, make it twenty nine to.

1598
01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:32,640
Speaker 1: Ten, and you'll feel like you got it.

1599
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,599
Speaker 2: But you know, you settled for three madamondol Field goals,

1600
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 2: and I totally agreed with the first one to get

1601
01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:42,360
Speaker 2: his confidence back, to give him an easy three pointer. Okay, good,

1602
01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 2: but you know the fact that you had to settle

1603
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,519
Speaker 2: for two other field goals on drives and he gave

1604
01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,760
Speaker 2: up that long ball to Courland Sutton, which by the way,

1605
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:52,080
Speaker 2: was his pretty throws I've seen all year long, and

1606
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 2: I've seen every single c J Strout throw up close.

1607
01:12:54,760 --> 01:12:56,920
Speaker 2: That throw over Russell Wilson was as good as a guy.

1608
01:12:56,960 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 2: I mean, it was. It was so incredibly good. But

1609
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 2: what you said, I would have been like, Okay, they're

1610
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 2: not winning this game. There's there's not a there's not

1611
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 2: a chance and you know what of winning this game.

1612
01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 2: But Nico, the three things that I just mentioned, you

1613
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 2: mentioned one the one I mentioned, oh for eleven and

1614
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,960
Speaker 2: third down you mentioned Russell's forty four yards passing. I

1615
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 2: will mention Nico Collins nine for one ninety one and

1616
01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 2: three massive chunk plays of thirty nine yards or more

1617
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:32,559
Speaker 2: huge huge. Now you throw in there the throw that

1618
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:34,760
Speaker 2: Straw made to Metch You were Mechi's wide open. You

1619
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:36,640
Speaker 2: just overshot him a little bit. That should have been

1620
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 2: seven points. That should have been another touchdown. He had

1621
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 2: the three field goal drives, at least one maybe two

1622
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:45,960
Speaker 2: should have been touchdowns. And now you're looking at what uh,

1623
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 2: and then you probably shouldn't have given up one.

1624
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:49,120
Speaker 1: Jimmy Ward goes out of the game.

1625
01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 2: And also they go bang bang and they're down in

1626
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:52,839
Speaker 2: there and they score a touch to make of twenty seventeen.

1627
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:55,479
Speaker 2: Either way, that shot should have probably been a thirty

1628
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:57,400
Speaker 2: four to seventeen game. That's that's kind of the way

1629
01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:01,360
Speaker 2: it felt. Arizona should have been that way. You know,

1630
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 2: Jacksonville shouldn't have gotten you know, even a twenty four

1631
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 2: to twenty one.

1632
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 1: But you know, so be it. But I would if

1633
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:09,559
Speaker 1: you'd have told me those things, I'd have been like,

1634
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:11,759
Speaker 1: all right, well, they're.

1635
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 15: Winning basically, and they after every game, and you can

1636
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 15: say this surely after every you know, even if you

1637
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 15: win sixty three to nothing, you say, well, we got

1638
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 15: some stuff we go to clean up. But they really

1639
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:21,280
Speaker 15: do have things they need to clean up. But they

1640
01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:24,759
Speaker 15: are still winning games, right, They're winning games against good teams,

1641
01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 15: good quarterback. I mean, they're making it happen when they're

1642
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:30,360
Speaker 15: not at their best. And that's got to make you

1643
01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 15: excited about this future. And when I say the future,

1644
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:35,479
Speaker 15: I'm not talking next year. I'm talking this game, the

1645
01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 15: game after, you know, the next month or so, because

1646
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 15: every single game is absolutely winnable for the Texans. Absolutely winnable. Yeah,

1647
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 15: saying there it's a slam dunk. They're going to roll

1648
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:49,040
Speaker 15: the table or win, you know, run the table. But

1649
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 15: every single one of these final five winnable.

1650
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:53,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, totally.

1651
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,000
Speaker 2: I mean there are some that dabble in that the

1652
01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:58,559
Speaker 2: dark arts that will tell you that they'll be favored

1653
01:14:58,560 --> 01:14:59,800
Speaker 2: in every game the rest of the year.

1654
01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:01,840
Speaker 16: Now, do you think they'd be favored against Indy? I mean,

1655
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 16: you got one, I know, I know they would say that.

1656
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,200
Speaker 16: I'm with I think the Indie game would be close.

1657
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:10,559
Speaker 16: And it also kind of depends on what's on the

1658
01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:12,639
Speaker 16: line in that Indie game, right by the way, But.

1659
01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:16,080
Speaker 15: All things being equal, I like the quarterback that's suiting

1660
01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:17,800
Speaker 15: up for this team better than the one.

1661
01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:19,559
Speaker 7: Oh I do for that one, and I think that

1662
01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:20,479
Speaker 7: one's a good one, And I.

1663
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,599
Speaker 2: Think that's probably that's probably the reason that the Texans

1664
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:25,040
Speaker 2: are going to end up being favored the rest of

1665
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:29,880
Speaker 2: the way. So if you look at it, you got Jets, Titans, Browns, Titans, Colts, Jets.

1666
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:33,000
Speaker 2: You don't know who the quarterback is Titans, it's Will Levis,

1667
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:38,599
Speaker 2: Browns it's you don't know, probably Flacco, probably Flacco, maybe

1668
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:43,040
Speaker 2: dtr you don't know, Levis again, and then you got

1669
01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:45,519
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew. Well for the Colts to very you know,

1670
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 2: at the end of the season, as it looks as

1671
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:50,240
Speaker 2: it looks right now, well, you know there have been murderers,

1672
01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:52,960
Speaker 2: rows of quarterbacks that texts have faced over the years.

1673
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:55,920
Speaker 1: This this is not that you do have to play

1674
01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:56,639
Speaker 1: three games.

1675
01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:59,720
Speaker 2: On the road, these next two back to back, and

1676
01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:02,280
Speaker 2: you know, if you're kind of if you're kind of

1677
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:05,040
Speaker 2: playing it out, I mean, yeah, you're playing two four

1678
01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,880
Speaker 2: and eight teams, But I don't want to say you

1679
01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:10,880
Speaker 2: want to split. You have to get a split out

1680
01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:13,240
Speaker 2: of it. You have to win your two games at home.

1681
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:14,920
Speaker 2: There's no doubt. You have to beat the browns of

1682
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,519
Speaker 2: the Titans at home. So if you split these two,

1683
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:20,960
Speaker 2: you get those two. Now you're three and one with

1684
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:25,200
Speaker 2: one to go, and you don't know what I mean,

1685
01:16:25,200 --> 01:16:26,960
Speaker 2: you have no idea. I mean, the playoffs could start

1686
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:28,720
Speaker 2: that weekend. You know, you got to you gotta win

1687
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:31,880
Speaker 2: to get in uh sort of thing. So you never

1688
01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:33,519
Speaker 2: know what's gonna happen in week eighteen. You know, Mark

1689
01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 2: and I talked about these schedules and what you're looking

1690
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:37,800
Speaker 2: at and who's got what the rest of the year.

1691
01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:41,080
Speaker 2: And you could argue the Texans have the quote unquote

1692
01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:44,720
Speaker 2: easier road, but you know it's hard to say. You know,

1693
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:46,719
Speaker 2: the Bengals, you know, you looked at it two weeks ago,

1694
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,800
Speaker 2: the cult of the Bengals coming up in Sancy. Well,

1695
01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:53,600
Speaker 2: they're thinking it's Jake Browning, He's you see what you

1696
01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:55,880
Speaker 2: did against the Steelers, will hammer him. Well, then you

1697
01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,240
Speaker 2: look at Jake Browning against the Jaguars. He beats the Jaguars.

1698
01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,559
Speaker 2: I'm one at football. And now the game's back and Cincy.

1699
01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:03,120
Speaker 2: So that game went from being would look like maybe

1700
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:05,639
Speaker 2: a walk away win with the Colts to holy cow,

1701
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:09,160
Speaker 2: that could be a sixty minute fistfight. So this whole

1702
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 2: thing is just really crazy down the stretch. The good

1703
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 2: thing is of the seven and five teams that you're

1704
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 2: in with. So if you just talking that side of it,

1705
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:21,960
Speaker 2: you beat the Steelers, you play the Browns. You lost

1706
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:26,880
Speaker 2: to the Colts, but you play them again, and then

1707
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,320
Speaker 2: you play the I think it's a I think I

1708
01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:32,880
Speaker 2: had Browns and Colts. Yeah, so you play the Browns

1709
01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:36,960
Speaker 2: and Colts, you beat the Steelers. So you've got you've

1710
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:40,479
Speaker 2: got a really good road. You just have to take

1711
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:42,920
Speaker 2: care of your business at this point. So you know,

1712
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 2: these two road games are gonna be tough. Outdoors, cold weather,

1713
01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:48,759
Speaker 2: presumably outdoors in the rain this weekend.

1714
01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:50,320
Speaker 1: You never know what you're gonna get Tennessee.

1715
01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:53,599
Speaker 2: So you just I'm not saying I want to split,

1716
01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:56,680
Speaker 2: But if you end up getting a split out of that,

1717
01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:58,559
Speaker 2: and you just take care of your business at home,

1718
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,000
Speaker 2: you'll be three and one going into the So you'll

1719
01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:03,560
Speaker 2: be ten and six going into the final game, and

1720
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 2: ten and six teams have typically gotten into the playoffs.

1721
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,400
Speaker 2: But you gotta beat the right teams. The Colts would

1722
01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:09,839
Speaker 2: have to be that right team to beat.

1723
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:11,439
Speaker 7: I want to be greedy. I don't want to split.

1724
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 7: I know you don't need to.

1725
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to.

1726
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:14,559
Speaker 7: I know you want to be greedy too, but let's

1727
01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 7: let's just.

1728
01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,080
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that if you want to make the playoffs,

1729
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:18,600
Speaker 2: you gotta have a split.

1730
01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:21,840
Speaker 15: Right right right, I know it's all good. No cream

1731
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:26,040
Speaker 15: of the crop crop, thank you, Macha man. So Monday morning,

1732
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:29,479
Speaker 15: who are we gonna say, you know, presuming a Texans victory,

1733
01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:33,680
Speaker 15: who's our Cream of the Crop award winner gonna be.

1734
01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:35,839
Speaker 15: I know, it's so tricky doing this on a Wednesday

1735
01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:37,760
Speaker 15: morning before we see I know, because it seems like

1736
01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,720
Speaker 15: every Wednesday afternoon it's like, why the hell didn't that

1737
01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:41,560
Speaker 15: guy practice?

1738
01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:43,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, we get stunned.

1739
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 2: I think one of our guys was Brevin Jordan last week,

1740
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:47,400
Speaker 2: felt like, all right, Brev's gonna get out and breath.

1741
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 1: Good choice, good good choice by us. I'm gonna go.

1742
01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:54,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Robert Woods.

1743
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:59,080
Speaker 2: You know, Bobby Trees the last few weeks not a feature.

1744
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:00,559
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny going back. I can watch in

1745
01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 2: the game and they beat the heck out of him. Inside.

1746
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:04,679
Speaker 2: I feel bad for Robert because a lot of times

1747
01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,040
Speaker 2: he's running all those those dirty routes. Inside, he's getting bumped,

1748
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:10,639
Speaker 2: he's getting nudged, he's getting held, all that.

1749
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 1: Kind of stuff.

1750
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:15,559
Speaker 2: I just feel like this week against the Jets, the

1751
01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 2: ball's got to come out of CJ's hands quickly. And

1752
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,920
Speaker 2: to be able to do that, I think it's got

1753
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:26,720
Speaker 2: to be savvy zone finding whole finding receivers that have

1754
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:28,920
Speaker 2: experienced in Robert Woods as the first one that comes

1755
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:31,160
Speaker 2: to mind and he's not had one of those big

1756
01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:31,879
Speaker 2: ball games.

1757
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:34,520
Speaker 1: He's been steady and he's been reliable.

1758
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,920
Speaker 2: I feel like in a game in which the ball's

1759
01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:39,920
Speaker 2: got to come out of CJ's hands quickly, it's got

1760
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:41,439
Speaker 2: to come out hot, and it's kind of gonna come

1761
01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 2: out fast, he's gonna have to go like you getting

1762
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:45,599
Speaker 2: it in Baltimore. Now, it's a long long time ago,

1763
01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 2: but against Baltimore it was the same kind of thing.

1764
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:49,320
Speaker 1: Third down, who do you look up? He looked up

1765
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:49,920
Speaker 1: Robert Woods.

1766
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:51,200
Speaker 2: I think this is going to be that kind of

1767
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:54,720
Speaker 2: offensive game, and Robert's gonna have to end up being

1768
01:19:54,720 --> 01:19:57,080
Speaker 2: that guy doing all some of the dirty work on inside.

1769
01:19:57,080 --> 01:19:58,200
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go Robert Woods.

1770
01:19:58,320 --> 01:19:58,720
Speaker 7: I like that.

1771
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,599
Speaker 15: I'm gonna add on to that because I still think

1772
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,920
Speaker 15: you're gonna see one hundred yard game from him or

1773
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,439
Speaker 15: too maybe, And I know the time is bleeding now,

1774
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,479
Speaker 15: but I've been saying that since they they sort of

1775
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:12,519
Speaker 15: started getting rolling in Week four. He's gonna get his

1776
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:15,360
Speaker 15: and I that's a good choice because there will be

1777
01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:19,360
Speaker 15: attention on Nico Collins. There will be attention on Noel Brown,

1778
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 15: even though he had a tough not tough, but he

1779
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 15: just you know, he had a quieter day on Sunday.

1780
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:27,360
Speaker 15: I do think that's a good choice. Here's my Stream

1781
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 15: of the Crop award winner to be the cream of

1782
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:35,920
Speaker 15: the crop. It's Blake Cashman, former New York Jet and

1783
01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:39,280
Speaker 15: I bet thankful, but I bet he's thankful. Hey, they

1784
01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 15: gave me a shot in the league. I got some

1785
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:45,600
Speaker 15: chances there. But hey, guys, you traded me away for

1786
01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:48,519
Speaker 15: a late round pick. I'm not playing like a late

1787
01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:53,280
Speaker 15: round pick. I'm getting significant snaps. I'm starting sometimes, I'm

1788
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,840
Speaker 15: I'm having to play a few different positions at linebacker,

1789
01:20:55,840 --> 01:20:58,639
Speaker 15: but I'm a difference maker. I've been the AFC Defensive

1790
01:20:58,640 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 15: Player of the Week.

1791
01:20:59,720 --> 01:20:59,920
Speaker 1: Yep.

1792
01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:03,320
Speaker 15: I think he gets a chance to feast this weekend

1793
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:07,080
Speaker 15: on an offense. That's man, all that's going on?

1794
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:08,719
Speaker 13: Weird.

1795
01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:11,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, gimme Blake Cashman.

1796
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:11,519
Speaker 1: All right, good.

1797
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:15,400
Speaker 15: I think you've chosen him on either on this show

1798
01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:17,280
Speaker 15: or ONCK Texans Extra Points, which you will be a

1799
01:21:17,280 --> 01:21:19,840

Speaker 7: The crop Award winner.

1804
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:30,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, good one. You know, I almost want Jalen Petrie.

1805
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:31,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1806
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:34,240
Speaker 15: I think he's gonna you know, we've heard what's going on,

1807
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,400
Speaker 15: but I think he's you know, I think he's gonna

1808
01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:37,840
Speaker 15: be fine.

1809
01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:40,160
Speaker 7: He had I think he played better Sunday, don't.

1810
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 15: Oh yeah, I thought he played well Sunday. It's nice

1811
01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,400
Speaker 15: having Jimmy wardback. It's nice having the two corners. It's

1812
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 15: nice having the starting secondary that you thought was gonna

1813
01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 15: be the one in twenty twenty three, yep, finally get

1814
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:51,200
Speaker 15: to play together in week thirteen for the.

1815
01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:52,040
Speaker 1: And it made a difference.

1816
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,759
Speaker 2: It made a massive difference having all those guys back together,

1817
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:57,719
Speaker 2: because at that point, somebody goes down where you're bringing

1818
01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:01,000
Speaker 2: in somebody that's had some experience, has been in the fires.

1819
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,439
Speaker 1: You know, Jimmy goes out, DC's got to come in.

1820
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,960
Speaker 2: Now the Texans at Adrian Amos to the back end,

1821
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:11,400
Speaker 2: just you know, a veteran, savvy, a guy's been around,

1822
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,439
Speaker 2: so uh, interesting things going on in the secondary. But

1823
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 2: the fact that you had the four guys that you

1824
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:19,519
Speaker 2: wanted to start the year with healthy and ready to go, and.

1825
01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,519
Speaker 1: They all made and they all made they all made

1826
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 1: place they did. They all made place.

1827
01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,599
Speaker 15: That was a fun Sunday and it was capped off

1828
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:31,040
Speaker 15: between Jimmy Ward's interception and you and I walking down

1829

Speaker 15: lot of fun. I did some wrestling, me and g Nokel,

1833

Speaker 15: and I kind of played up the crowd got them.

01:23:44,640 --> 01:23:45,720
Speaker 15: been with him a while.

01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:47,320
Speaker 7: And interesting times.

1856
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 15: They're interesting times here and these two teams are gonna clash.

1857
01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:54,559
Speaker 15: This defense is the thing that stands out to Texans

1858
01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:58,000
Speaker 15: fans and everybody the most as far as the biggest

1859
01:23:58,240 --> 01:23:59,559
Speaker 15: threat facing CJ.

1860
01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:00,559
Speaker 7: Stroud Company.

1861
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:03,599
Speaker 15: These guys are rock solid at just about every level

1862
01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:06,160
Speaker 15: of the defense. What's been most impressive to you, Caroline

1863
01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:07,680
Speaker 15: with what they've been able to do this year, some

1864
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:09,719
Speaker 15: of the struggles and challenges they've faced.

1865
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:13,679
Speaker 17: Yeah, I think this defense is truly one of a kind.

1866
01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:16,720
Speaker 17: And I know early this season in training camp they

1867
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,679
Speaker 17: wanted to they were talking about being that number one defense,

1868
01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:22,920
Speaker 17: and they have really latched onto that goal and kind

1869
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,280
Speaker 17: of taken off with it. Every position, like you've said,

1870
01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:28,360
Speaker 17: has a stud or multiple studs at it. So like

1871
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,240
Speaker 17: you have the defensive back groups with Michael Carter the

1872
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:34,960
Speaker 17: second who I don't think gets enough of a like

1873
01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,759
Speaker 17: shine because he's also partnered with Dj Reed and Sauce Gardner,

1874
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,799
Speaker 17: who are two incredible cornerbacks and who shut down almost

1875
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:44,160
Speaker 17: every wide receiver they go against every week. But then

1876
01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,800
Speaker 17: you have two linebackers who could go to the Pro

1877
01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:48,160
Speaker 17: Bowl this year in CJ.

1878
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:49,639
Speaker 18: Moseley and Quincy Williams.

1879
01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:52,599
Speaker 17: Quincy Williams is having like his best year that I've

1880
01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:55,559
Speaker 17: ever seen him play football in. And then of course

1881
01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,320
Speaker 17: the defensive line is just out of control and they

1882
01:24:58,320 --> 01:25:01,439
Speaker 17: have so many good play that just rotate through that

1883
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:05,240
Speaker 17: defensive line, and one being Bryce Huff who is having

1884
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:07,720
Speaker 17: a bit of a breakout year with the amount of

1885
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:11,479
Speaker 17: pressures that he gets, and Jermaine Johnson, who is a

1886
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 17: rookie last year and has been having an incredible sophomore season.

1887
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 17: So I just think that this group really is kind

1888
01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:23,120
Speaker 17: of getting better each week and fixing a lot of

1889
01:25:23,160 --> 01:25:26,800
Speaker 17: the maybe weaker points of their game. So like last week,

1890
01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:29,559
Speaker 17: for example, against the Falcons, they had been letting up

1891
01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:32,639
Speaker 17: one hundred and forty rush yards per game, right they

1892
01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:35,559
Speaker 17: only let the Falcons rush for ninety So it's those

1893
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,519
Speaker 17: kinds of incremental steps that they're taking each week that

1894
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,320
Speaker 17: I think it makes them a really special group and

1895
01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:43,559
Speaker 17: really hard to play against, especially on the road for

1896
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 17: the Texans.

1897
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 15: Caroline Hendershot of the New York Jets covers the team

1898
01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 15: up there, just ticked off a list of names who

1899
01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:52,599
Speaker 15: have been super impressive. It's a real luxury to have,

1900
01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:54,960
Speaker 15: you know. One of those names is Sauce Garger. He

1901
01:25:55,040 --> 01:25:57,400
Speaker 15: has looked every bit the part of a top five

1902
01:25:57,439 --> 01:25:58,880
Speaker 15: picks since he arrived there here or.

1903
01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:00,960
Speaker 7: So ago has any Yeah, he has.

1904
01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:05,400
Speaker 17: Like I think last year, everyone didn't maybe expect him

1905
01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 17: to come out in his rookie season and have the

1906
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:10,760
Speaker 17: kind of dominant performance that he did and get put

1907
01:26:10,800 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 17: against some of these NFL veterans that he went against

1908
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:17,439
Speaker 17: and shut them down as well. And he has just

1909
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:21,280
Speaker 17: been a very consistent force back there, and I think

1910
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:24,760
Speaker 17: that really helps the d line because they know that

1911
01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:27,720
Speaker 17: they don't maybe have to get to the quarterback and

1912
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,200
Speaker 17: their first move. Maybe they can get to the quarterback

1913
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 17: and their second or their third move because Sauce is

1914
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:36,439
Speaker 17: not letting the quarterback throw the ball as quickly as

1915
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:39,759
Speaker 17: they would probably like to. So he is really really dominant.

1916
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,080
Speaker 17: And DJ Reid too, Like I know that Sauce is

1917
01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:45,880
Speaker 17: the flashy name, but DJ Reid has been out of

1918
01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,120
Speaker 17: this world as well, and he played at a Pro

1919
01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 17: Bowl level last year and I think is playing again

1920
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:51,639
Speaker 17: at a Pro Bowl level this year.

1921
01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:54,800
Speaker 18: So two really really good quarterbacks.

1922
01:26:54,680 --> 01:26:57,120
Speaker 15: Of those personalities that you deal with there and get

1923
01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 15: to interact with on the defensive side of the ball.

1924
01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,439
Speaker 15: Who's been the surprising to you.

1925
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:06,160
Speaker 17: That's a really good question because I feel like it's

1926
01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,560
Speaker 17: funny because I feel like a lot of the defense

1927
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:13,400
Speaker 17: is like really loud and kind of just in your

1928
01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:15,800
Speaker 17: face and like they know we're gonna come at you

1929
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,800
Speaker 17: with all we got and whatnot. But Sauce is kind

1930
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:20,920
Speaker 17: of and I'm he flips a switch when he's on

1931
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:23,639
Speaker 17: the field, I'm sure, But Sauce is definitely like very

1932
01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:27,160
Speaker 17: just kind of like reserved, and he's very similar to

1933
01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,240
Speaker 17: Garrett Wilson in the sense that they just seem very

1934
01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:33,240
Speaker 17: mature beyond their years, Like you would never guess that

1935
01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:35,120
Speaker 17: they are as young as they are, and they just

1936
01:27:35,240 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 17: kind of have this wisdom about themselves and they carry

1937
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,200
Speaker 17: themselves in a way where you're like, oh, I like

1938
01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:43,599
Speaker 17: would have never guessed that you're only in your second year.

1939
01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,719
Speaker 17: You seem so much older and like you've been through

1940
01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:49,640
Speaker 17: so much more. And Sauce has spoken about this, and

1941
01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:51,840
Speaker 17: he said a lot of that is because of kind

1942
01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:54,120
Speaker 17: of the tutelage that he's gotten from DJ Reid.

1943
01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:56,679
Speaker 15: It's gonna be fun to see who those guys matches

1944
01:27:56,800 --> 01:28:02,000
Speaker 15: up with. Nico Collins is Robert and yep, Noah Brown

1945
01:28:02,160 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 15: Tech Texas gonna be without Tank Dell. Unfortunately he was.

1946
01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,320
Speaker 15: He was ripping things up here in Houston as a rookie.

1947
01:28:08,439 --> 01:28:12,000
Speaker 15: Seven touchdowns already. That's a franchise record for catches by

1948
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:14,960
Speaker 15: a rookie touchdown wise in a season. Yeah, tell me

1949
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:18,639
Speaker 15: about Robert Sala and the job he's done, because one

1950
01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:21,720
Speaker 15: of the storylines entering this one is the Demico Ryans

1951
01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,559
Speaker 15: and Sala connection. We of course, old people like me

1952
01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:27,960
Speaker 15: remember when Sala was a really low level assistant here

1953
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:30,000
Speaker 15: with the Houston Texans, you know, when he was getting

1954
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,320
Speaker 15: his start in the NFL and Gary Kubiak was the

1955
01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:34,760
Speaker 15: head coach at the time. Sala was kind of a

1956
01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:37,679
Speaker 15: holdover from the previous regime and Kubiak was just super

1957
01:28:37,720 --> 01:28:41,360
Speaker 15: impressed with Sala, always being around the building, always having

1958
01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 15: a good idea or two for such.

1959
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:44,799
Speaker 7: A young guy. But what have you seen from Sala

1960
01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:45,639
Speaker 7: and you.

1961
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,240
Speaker 15: Know the dynamic that we're gonna hear storyline wise with

1962
01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:49,759
Speaker 15: Demiko Ryans coming up this week.

1963
01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:54,120
Speaker 17: Yeah, I think Sala is just a coach that obviously

1964
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:57,639
Speaker 17: his defensive background is so deep and you can see

1965
01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:00,599
Speaker 17: that in the Jets defense in today's like and how

1966
01:29:00,640 --> 01:29:03,280
Speaker 17: they play and all of the preparation that goes into it.

1967
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:06,719
Speaker 18: But I think something that maybe just like.

1968
01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:10,599
Speaker 17: Gets grazed over with Robert Sala is just how detail

1969
01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:11,519
Speaker 17: oriented he is.

1970
01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:14,200
Speaker 18: He truly is like always in the building.

1971
01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,479
Speaker 17: There's never a time that he's not here, and he

1972
01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:19,800
Speaker 17: is making sure each player is really on their piece

1973
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:22,960
Speaker 17: and q's and he always says like football is a

1974
01:29:22,960 --> 01:29:25,400
Speaker 17: game of inches and it comes down to those little moments,

1975
01:29:25,439 --> 01:29:29,520
Speaker 17: and he gets really on the guys about small penalties

1976
01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 17: that we can fix because there's been a lot of

1977
01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:34,800
Speaker 17: penalties this year and the difference in penalties. Sometimes he's like,

1978
01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,360
Speaker 17: I like the aggression that they play with, So there's

1979
01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:39,519
Speaker 17: certain penalties where I'm okay with that, But there's other

1980
01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:41,960
Speaker 17: penalties where like, we can't have those kinds of things happen.

1981
01:29:42,240 --> 01:29:44,760
Speaker 17: And he gets really on those players and you can

1982
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 17: see them fix these things week in and week out

1983
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:51,679
Speaker 17: and definitely like make concerted efforts to fix these weaker

1984
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,920
Speaker 17: spots within whether it's the defense, the offense, whatever, special teams.

1985
01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:58,840
Speaker 17: But I think as a coach, it obviously always comes

1986
01:29:58,880 --> 01:30:01,040
Speaker 17: down to those details, and he is a big stickler

1987
01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:01,719
Speaker 17: on those details.

1988
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:04,840
Speaker 15: Caroline Hendershot of the New York Jets covers the team

1989
01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:06,559
Speaker 15: up there. It's fun to hear some of those stories

1990
01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:09,240
Speaker 15: you just mentioned, because you said every inch we hear

1991
01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:11,960
Speaker 15: Demiko Ryans quite often say, you know, fight for that

1992
01:30:12,040 --> 01:30:14,920
Speaker 15: last blade of grass and it's come to the four

1993
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 15: for the Texans and a few wins this season, and

1994
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:21,120
Speaker 15: quarterback wise, what's the story that you you think and

1995
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:23,800
Speaker 15: know is going to happen and what are the Texans

1996
01:30:24,040 --> 01:30:26,120
Speaker 15: going to prepare for? Because he was asked about it,

1997
01:30:26,160 --> 01:30:28,960
Speaker 15: Demiko Ryan's about, you know, the uncertainty with the Jets

1998
01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:31,479
Speaker 15: quarterback position. He said, hey, we got to focus on ourselves.

1999
01:30:31,479 --> 01:30:34,600
Speaker 15: We got a lot to fix defensively mistake wise, But

2000
01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:35,720
Speaker 15: what can you tell us from your end?

2001
01:30:35,720 --> 01:30:40,080
Speaker 17: About the quarterback coming into today when we're recording it.

2002
01:30:40,439 --> 01:30:43,160
Speaker 17: Robert Solow yesterday said that he's not there yet in

2003
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:47,120
Speaker 17: terms of naming a starting quarterback. So obviously last week

2004
01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:49,960
Speaker 17: Tim Boyle started and then Trevor Simeon came in and

2005
01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:52,360
Speaker 17: Tim Boyle was actually cut today, so.

2006
01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:53,759
Speaker 18: Tim Boyle is no longer on the roster.

2007
01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:58,040
Speaker 17: So right now it is looking like it's either going

2008
01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:00,880
Speaker 17: to be probably Trevor Simeon or is Zach Wilson one

2009
01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:03,200
Speaker 17: of those two because those two have obviously been on

2010
01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:06,519
Speaker 17: the roster and playing and practicing with the team for

2011
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:07,360
Speaker 17: the longest.

2012
01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:10,799
Speaker 18: As of right now, who between the two of them, not.

2013
01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:12,840
Speaker 17: Sure who it will be, but we did hear that

2014
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:16,759
Speaker 17: Salah said that Zack Wilson went into Robert Sala's office

2015
01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:19,400
Speaker 17: and kind of made a case for himself of why

2016
01:31:19,479 --> 01:31:21,640
Speaker 17: he wants to start, why he thinks he should be

2017
01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:24,639
Speaker 17: starting and playing for this team. So it will come

2018
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 17: down to Robert Sala and what he thinks is the

2019
01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:29,880
Speaker 17: best after watching the tape from Sunday and kind of

2020
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:32,919
Speaker 17: making that overall decision. But that is all the information

2021
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:35,080
Speaker 17: that they have right now, whether they'll name a starter

2022
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,400
Speaker 17: tomorrow or whether it will be later in the week.

2023
01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 17: We're not sure, So it's kind of a wait and

2024
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:42,360
Speaker 17: see game, which I don't know if that is an

2025
01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:46,280
Speaker 17: advantage for the Jets. Maybe having the Texans keep them

2026
01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:49,000
Speaker 17: on their toes, but we'll just have to wait and see.

2027
01:31:49,360 --> 01:31:53,400
Speaker 15: Yeah, and weapons wise, whoever's throwing the ball, who is

2028
01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:56,599
Speaker 15: kind of on the rise in your estimation as far

2029
01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:58,080
Speaker 15: as look out for this guy. He's been playing a

2030
01:31:58,080 --> 01:31:59,760
Speaker 15: little bit better, He's getting more targets, so on and

2031
01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:01,960
Speaker 15: so forth. Could be a receiver, could be a running back,

2032
01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:02,680
Speaker 15: could be a tight end.

2033
01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:07,000
Speaker 17: This is a really good question because I think everyone

2034
01:32:07,120 --> 01:32:10,400
Speaker 17: obviously knows the big names like Garrett Wilson and Bruce Hall, right,

2035
01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:13,880
Speaker 17: those two stars at wide receiver and running back. But

2036
01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:18,720
Speaker 17: I think someone that is growing each week is Xavier Gibson. Now,

2037
01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,759
Speaker 17: he was the wide receiver who actually returned the punt

2038
01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:24,320
Speaker 17: against the overtime win against the Bills in Week one

2039
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:26,200
Speaker 17: back way back in September.

2040
01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:30,040
Speaker 15: I believe, right, yeah, yes he was. Yes, he was

2041
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:34,000
Speaker 15: a Jack's hand signal, so we do exactly.

2042
01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:38,400
Speaker 17: So I think that he has been getting more and

2043
01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:40,559
Speaker 17: more targets each week, and he has.

2044
01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:42,639
Speaker 18: Been making something of them. Each week.

2045
01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:46,200
Speaker 17: So I think he's definitely someone that the Texans fans

2046
01:32:46,240 --> 01:32:49,200
Speaker 17: should be kind of on the lookout for. He's definitely rising.

2047
01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:52,719
Speaker 17: I talked to him after last week's game against the Falcons,

2048
01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:53,759
Speaker 17: and he was like, there's.

2049
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:55,840
Speaker 18: Still so much that I have to work on, but

2050
01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:56,439
Speaker 18: I do.

2051
01:32:56,320 --> 01:32:58,400
Speaker 17: Think that I'm kind of catching up with the speed

2052
01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:00,479
Speaker 17: of the game and playing a little bit faster and

2053
01:33:00,520 --> 01:33:04,040
Speaker 17: picking up on those like small tendencies that rookies tend

2054
01:33:04,120 --> 01:33:06,760
Speaker 17: to not have right at the jump. And so I'm

2055
01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:09,360
Speaker 17: excited to see kind of his career continue to go

2056
01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:10,400
Speaker 17: and grow.

2057
01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:13,559
Speaker 15: You know, this Jets team is an interesting one because

2058
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:16,639
Speaker 15: it was totally written off when Aaron Rodgers went down,

2059
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:18,840
Speaker 15: and then you know, they were hanging around and doing

2060
01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:21,559
Speaker 15: some things going through a stretch that's tough right now,

2061
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:25,599
Speaker 15: but clearly they're not a group that makes it easy

2062
01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:27,719
Speaker 15: on you and has given up. Where do you see

2063
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:31,240
Speaker 15: and what do you think resiliency? What sort of reservoir

2064
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:34,719
Speaker 15: of resiliency is there with this this squad in your estimation?

2065
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:37,960
Speaker 17: Yeah, I've talked to a lot of them obviously after

2066
01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:41,080
Speaker 17: these past couple games where they've been on a little

2067
01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:43,080
Speaker 17: bit of a losing stretch. But I think that what

2068
01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:46,759
Speaker 17: stands out to me the most is just the same

2069
01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:50,160
Speaker 17: standard that they hold themselves to, Like no matter what's

2070
01:33:50,200 --> 01:33:52,680
Speaker 17: going on around them, no matter what is happening, no

2071
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:56,720
Speaker 17: matter if they're winning or losing, they continuously hold themselves

2072
01:33:56,760 --> 01:33:59,439
Speaker 17: to this standard. And I think that you know, Aaron

2073
01:33:59,479 --> 01:34:02,160
Speaker 17: Rodgers earlier today on the Pat McFee show, and he said,

2074
01:34:02,160 --> 01:34:05,400
Speaker 17: it's gonna show a lot about what kind of professionals

2075
01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:08,519
Speaker 17: these guys are and how they finish the next like

2076
01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:12,519
Speaker 17: so on games, because it just really comes down to

2077
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:15,200
Speaker 17: maybe things aren't working out exactly as you expected them,

2078
01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:18,519
Speaker 17: but like, what are you doing to kind of put

2079
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:20,840
Speaker 17: your all in and change this? And I know a

2080
01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:24,599
Speaker 17: lot of the guys are having that mindset, So I

2081
01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:27,120
Speaker 17: look forward to kind of seeing them battle this and

2082
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:28,880
Speaker 17: try and bounce back from this streak.

2083
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,759
Speaker 2: I'm all for keeping the streak going, the Texans winning

2084
01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:34,519
Speaker 2: streak that is, and the Jets losing streak. But we'll

2085
01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:38,800
Speaker 2: see what happens on Sunday against the Jets. Appreciate you

2086

2089
01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:52,640
Speaker 2: Bruce Feldman popping in with a little cameo from the

2090
01:34:52,680 --> 01:34:55,240
Speaker 2: sound he gave me. Appreciate you guys all for listening
