1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Just keep grinding, all right, We're getting better eating every day.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 2: Running rapt to the doll line, fighting his way in

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:08,239
Speaker 2: as the Texans wrapped the lead.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:09,119
Speaker 3: That's got to work.

5
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 2: Maybe takes the gift, has time, throws to the anzone.

6
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 4: Caught and it's a touckdown love the energy wrapped up

7
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 4: for a lost.

8
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 2: For the TfL.

9
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 4: It's side the tent Alright, let's do it.

10
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 5: Texans have the ball on the pit about the ball.

11
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 6: Now it's Texans all xcess.

12
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 7: What's up? Everybody?

13
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,559

00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 5: the Honday Texans Radio Studio. I'm your host, John Harris,

15
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 5: football analyst, sideline reporter for your Houston Texans. Glad to

16
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 5: be with you on a wonderful Monday, coming off a

17
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 5: day in which the Texans took a w from the

18
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 5: Saints twenty to thirteen. Texas now three and three on

19
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,480
Speaker 5: the season. Great spot to be going into the buy.

20
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 5: Will come out of the bye October twenty ninth and

21
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 5: take on the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte. The third trip

22
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 5: to Charlotte, just like it was the third trip to Atlanta.

23
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 7: Now we're not over for Charlotte because we beat him

24
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 7: in two thousand.

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 5: And seven, But I'd like to get on the board

26
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 5: for twenty twenty three getting a win. Taking on the

27
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 5: winless Panthers on that day and Bryce Young, who's taking

28
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 5: one pick ahead of CJ. Strouds would be a lot

29
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 5: of quarterback talk, I'm sure leading up to that one

30
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 5: in Charlotte.

31
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,559
Speaker 7: But we got plenty to do tonight, and we're gonna

32
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 7: take a breather because we need it.

33
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 5: We need to buye week and we're gonna have that,

34
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 5: but not before we catch up with our good friends,

35
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 5: including Andre where of course we had to start with

36
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 5: his thoughts on what he thinks the CJ.

37
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: Stroud DRADJ Stroud, the growth, the development, what are you seeing?

38
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 4: I just see a player that is playing beyond his years,

39
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 4: that was very well coached at Ohio State, who understands

40
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: where pressure is coming from, how to escape it. He's

41
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 4: a little bit quicker and we got a chance to

42
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 4: see a little bit of that yesterday, him escaping the

43
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 4: pocket on a couple of occasions and getting the ball

44
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 4: away and out of bounds and just subtle things like that,

45
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: because when you extend to play, you better extend it

46
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 4: in the right manner. Otherwise you're extending it to hurt

47
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 4: your football team. And so a lot of young quarterbacks

48
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 4: do they think that, you know, they.

49
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: Can make every play. He's just smart enough to realize.

50
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 4: Hey, let me get rid of the football, come back

51
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 4: on second on third down and do my damage there.

52
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 4: And seeing him operate, anticipate the throws he makes, changing.

53
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 3: Arm angles, all of it has been impressive. Dre.

54
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 5: We talked about this a little bit during the broadcast,

55
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 5: and I know you mentioned it. Blake Cashman and what

56
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 5: he's doing at linebacker for this team. I mean, it's

57
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 5: hard to even put it towards me. At fifteen tackles yesterday,

58
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 5: he was all over the place. Is a heat seeking missile.

59
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 5: I don't even want to think about this defense without

60
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 5: Blake Cashman, and I don't want to say he's a

61
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 5: surprise for a lot of people. And we saw it

62
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 5: in training camp, we talked about it. But to see

63
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 5: it come the fruition yesterday for him to play that way.

64
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 5: What are your thoughts about Blake and what he's bringing

65
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 5: to this defense.

66
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 4: I think he deserves a ton of credit. Uh, you know,

67
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 4: he's kind of one of those players that you know

68
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 4: really flies under the radar. But uh, he played yesterday,

69
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 4: and this is the best way I could describe it,

70
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: Like he was in the final preseason game trying to

71
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 4: make this team.

72
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 2: And if you get that.

73
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 3: Type of effort, if you if you get that type.

74
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 4: Of effort from everyone defensively, because it's contagious. You know,

75
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 4: when you see it today when they're all sitting around

76
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 4: watching the film and Demiko's talking about kat, look at

77
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 4: Cashman right here, flying around, making a play on the sideline,

78
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 4: defending the pass, uh, getting after the quarterback, all of it.

79
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 4: I mean, he had a complete football game yesterday, and

80
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 4: he played like he played lights out, like his hair

81
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 4: was on fire, like he was trying to make this team.

82
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: For the first time. And and you're you're talking about

83
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: a veteran.

84
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 4: Player that just us really really started to play well

85
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 4: or has been playing.

86
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 2: Well well, Dre When you look at the final stats here,

87
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: you look at Derek Carr, he throws for three hundred

88
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: and fifty three yards. They sack him, let him las,

89
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, because they got thirteen points on the afternoon.

90
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: And you look at two sacks, okay, two sacks, but

91
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 2: they got pressure on him, they collapse that pocket, forcing

92
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: some bad errant throws, some incompletions. And you always tell

93
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: us this, sacks are one thing, pressure is another, and

94
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 2: sometimes pressure is better.

95
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 4: Well, pressure last because it gets between the ears of

96
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 4: a quarterback, and if it's constant, then you might, you know,

97
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 4: you get to a point where can we block these guys?

98
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 3: You know how much am I going to get hit?

99
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 4: And if you're not willing to accept that and sit

100
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 4: in and deliver the football, then it could be a

101
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 4: long day. And the reason why I bring up that

102
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 4: point sitting in, there's no doubt, you know, there's no

103
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 4: questioning Derek's courage. It's that he was playing hurt with

104
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 4: his right shoulder a couple of times. They had to

105
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 4: help him up, so on and so forth. So when

106
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 4: you're getting that constant pressure that plays a tune between

107
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 4: your ears rather than just a sack, it's emotional for

108
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 4: the moment and then you move on from it. Yeah,

109
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 4: it helps with field position and things of that sort. It's,

110
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 4: you know, a momentum booster all that you can describe.

111
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 4: But that pressure is something that pressure leads to mistakes

112
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 4: and you start to force the ball, you start to

113
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 4: try to get it out maybe earlier, and then it

114
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 4: leads to a tipped ball or maybe an interception. Sack

115
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 4: is just what it is, So I would much rather

116
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 4: take the constant pressure that they were applying. Only two

117
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 4: sacks in the game yesterday, but the pressure was there

118
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 4: just about every snap when he dropped back Dre.

119
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 5: I don't think we talk about this on a Monday,

120
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,799
Speaker 5: but I just happened to see him in the hallway

121
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 5: and made me think that of all the different stars

122
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 5: that made plays yesterday. Year we talked about cash Man

123
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 5: and CJ and all the big names, I think one

124
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 5: that's gonna go unmentioned today that deserves mentioned, and I

125
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 5: know you've talked about it on the broadcast, is Cam

126
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 5: Johnston at punter and the punt especially he hit going

127
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 5: into the from left to right, going into the south zone,

128
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 5: because when he hit it, all three of us went

129
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 5: whoa at the same time, and it looked like this.

130
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 5: It looked like a throw you made in nineteen eighty

131
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 5: nine for your Heisman Trophy.

132
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: It's just in the air. It is beautiful parabla.

133
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 5: Cam has been such a weapon for this team, and

134
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 5: I think he was missed the first four weeks.

135
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: I know it's punning, I.

136
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 5: Get it, But just the fact that he can flip

137
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 5: the field the way he does, how valuable has that

138
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 5: been to this team?

139
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: He is Cam.

140
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: Johnson might be the best punter in the NFL with

141
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: his ability to just hit a punt like you just

142
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 4: described yesterday, his ability to down him inside the twenty,

143
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 4: his ability to put back spin on it from from

144
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: however long sixty five yards I think it was, and

145
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 4: it backed up. I'm a big fan of Cam Johnson,

146
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 4: and I get the man resigned tomorrow in my eyes,

147
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 4: because I don't think you're gonna go out and.

148
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 3: Find a better punter than Cam Johnson.

149
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 4: Thank thank goodness for the for the to heal and

150
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 4: we get him back because he was sorely missed. And

151
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 4: I think he played a big part in that game yesterday,

152
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 4: changing field positions, forcing the Saints to have to operate

153
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 4: from backed up. That is that's a weapon that you're right,

154
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 4: nobody's gonna talk about, but he certainly played a huge

155
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 4: role in yesterday's win.

156
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 2: Dre back to the offense here, and speaking of healing,

157
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 2: Tank Dell hope to have him back against Carolina a

158
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 2: week from Sunday, So he's got almost two weeks, but

159
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 2: he's got a practice next week. Obviously you want him

160
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: out there. What does he mean to this offense? Because

161
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: it was good that they had a chance to get

162
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: ready knowing that he probably would not play, so they

163
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: could plan for it. But to plan for him being

164
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: back in there, that means a lot based on some

165
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 2: of the plays we've seen them make with him in

166
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: the lineup. I mean against Atlanta that first half, he

167
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: has that big catch to get the field goal late

168
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 2: in the first half, and I thought they really missed

169
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 2: him in the second half last week on the road.

170
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 4: Thoughts on that, Yeah, you know, we talked about it

171
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 4: after the game yesterday in the postgame, getting players back

172
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 4: because of the bye week, and they'll certainly by the

173
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 4: time they play again in Carolina, tanks should be ready

174
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 4: to go. And I don't know how close he was

175
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 4: to being able to play yesterday. But what you miss

176
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,119
Speaker 4: is the explosiveness. You missed the big plays down the field.

177
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 4: You miss the wild plays that he adds to this offense.

178
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 4: And so credit to Noah Brown who stepped in yesterday

179
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 4: and made some big plays. He has been hurt since

180
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,839
Speaker 4: the season started finally getting him back, So now you'll

181
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 4: have the full complement of wide receivers that you thought

182
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 4: you would have when you started the season.

183
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 3: And so now you got all your weapons, you should.

184
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 4: Have a complete offensive line by the time the bye

185
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: week is over and we get ready to roll out

186
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 4: to Carolina. So the offense will kind of roll into shape,

187
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 4: get some players back, obviously on the defensive side as well,

188
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 4: and you get yourself prepared for the stretch run and

189
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 4: basically the same and half of the season, so to speak.

190
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 4: So it that's what the bye week does. It'll be

191
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 4: good to get tanked back. But we certainly missed his

192
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: explosiveness yesterday.

193
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 5: That's why I love doing this show because we talked

194
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 5: about punting before the question. I'm about to astray, but

195
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 5: the Texans ran for one hundred and twenty yards yesterday,

196
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 5: and I don't want to throw a party for it,

197
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 5: but I kind of want to throw a party for

198
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 5: it because how long had it been? Mark says, we

199
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 5: ran for one hundred yards in a game we did Pittsburgh. Yeah,

200
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 5: but got to one hundred and twenty yards yesterday. But

201
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 5: Devin Singletary got thirteen touches. Damian Pierce got thirteen touches. Drey,

202
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 5: what'd you think about the touch allocation between the two

203
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 5: running backs yesterday and the run game in particular.

204
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, we I think we talked a little bit about

205
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 4: it during the game. Both guys were productive both and

206
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 4: I think Danny Barrett did a heck of a job.

207
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 3: In terms of managing that position.

208
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 4: And what I mean by that is when motor got hot,

209
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 4: when Singletary got hot, he.

210
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 3: Left him in.

211
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 4: He let him roll because he knew, he felt that,

212
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 4: hey he's hot right now, let him get the bulk

213
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 4: of the carries. I honestly think it just worked out

214
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 4: where it was thirteen and thirteen. They didn't go in

215
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 4: and say, hey, motors got thirteen, we need to get

216
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 4: pierced up to thirteen.

217
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 3: It just worked out that way.

218
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 4: And they were just going on on gut and who

219
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 4: was hot at the right times, and I thought they

220
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 4: time that exactly just precisely right.

221
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 2: All right, Drey. Jacksonville takes care of business against the Colts.

222
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew gets the interception bug. What did you throw

223
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 2: three yesterday? In that one? And Lawrence has a shaky

224
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: knee right now. It's MRI Monday around the league. He's

225
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,079
Speaker 2: gonna get one today to determine how tough it is.

226
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: But thoughts on the division here, it's three picks for Minshew, right, Johnny.

227
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 2: So thoughts on the division here is the Jags are

228
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 2: four and two, but the Texans handled them on the road.

229
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 2: I know it's transitive and things change over time, but

230
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 2: the Jags have had three nice wins since that loss

231
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 2: for them, and the Titan lose to the Ravens in London.

232
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: Tannehill gets hurt, Malik Willis has to play, it doesn't

233
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 2: go well.

234
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: So what do you think here? This is a race

235
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: right now.

236
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of football left. Of course,

237
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: got to stay healthy, gotta make players, gotta win games.

238
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 2: But the AFC South feels like it's up for grabs.

239
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: This is a hotly contested affair.

240
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, after the Texans beat the Jags down in Jacksonville,

241
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 4: I thought.

242
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: You know, this is anybody's division.

243
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 4: It could be the Colts if they got hot at

244
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 4: the right time.

245
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 3: It could be the Jags if they got hot.

246
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 4: It could be the Titans if they got out, and

247
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 4: certainly the Texans in there as well. You throw them

248
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 4: into that equation. But it's anybody's division. There's no just

249
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 4: flat out dominant. There's no Kansas City Chiefs that live

250
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: in the division. There's no Philadelphia Eagles. Oh they lost yesterday.

251
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 4: They that lives in the division. And we joked about it.

252
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 4: But any given Sunday, somebody can get beat and that

253
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 4: was proven when the Texans go to Jacksonville and win there.

254
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 4: So now the second time around, you get them in

255
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 4: your building, that home.

256
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,359
Speaker 3: You got to feel pretty good about about.

257
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: That, about your chances if you just continue to take

258
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 4: care of business and stay in step with what the

259
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 4: Jags are doing. Uh, it's a that's a mixed up team.

260
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 4: I can't get a beat on them because they win

261
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 4: games that I thought they shouldn't win, and they lose

262
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 4: games I thought they should win. It's us who knows

263
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 4: what's going on in Jagsonville. They play after games across

264
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 4: the pond. It seems like anyway. Uh, they've been over.

265
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 3: There for weeks. It's just crazy and uh, I.

266
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: Don't know that that that's that's just tough. That's a

267
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 4: subject for a different, different show about all the travel

268
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 4: that you have to do and if they get to

269
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 4: stay there, how much of an advantage that is for them,

270
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 4: but uh, you know it's it's anybody's division.

271
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 3: It's right there and you get to buy. I'm thinking

272
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: of just the perfect time. All right.

273
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, ask both of you guys this.

274
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 2: Let's say the Jags announce we're gonna move to London.

275
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 2: We are going to move to London. Would you want

276
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 2: to see that with them in the division? You're still

277
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: going to play them once a year over there? Would

278
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 2: you take it? And I don't know how you handle

279
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: it because the Ravens went early last week and they're

280
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: saying if you go early now. The original thought was

281
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 2: go early, then it was go Thursday. Now it's back

282
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 2: to early. Because the Titans went late. They lost and

283
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if it was because of that, who knows.

284
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 2: But would you guys take that?

285
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: Dray? Would you take that? Right now?

286
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 2: You it's up to you, you know what. We don't

287
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: know if we're going to do it, but Andre where

288
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: you decide?

289
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 3: Nope? You guys, how do you? I mean, it's just

290
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 3: as you wanted it, there's my answer. Nope, You're not

291
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 3: going You've been on that flight before. How do you

292
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 3: feel for days after that?

293
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 4: I remember ramp it up and play, you know, two

294
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 4: or three days after a trip back from London.

295
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 8: No.

296
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 2: I remember I sat right next to Drey on the

297
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 2: way back and it was a constant fight for the

298
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 2: arm rest in the middle.

299
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: And you'd have to move of an East team over there,

300
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 1: you have.

301
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: To, Yeah, yeah, I mean I know.

302
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: Oh, it'll upset the apple cart. I get it.

303
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 5: Like you know, Now here's one for you. He's running

304
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 5: to the east, moved Miami to the South. Now I'm

305
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 5: in for that. That Dolphins in the NY South.

306
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 2: I mean, but we need to to move on and McDaniel,

307
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 2: we need that thing to die down.

308
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I have.

309
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 3: To thinking thinking about that one.

310
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 8: You're taking a lesser team.

311
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 3: Moving them out of the division, and yeah, one of

312
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 3: the hottest teams in the NFL into the division.

313
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 8: Yeah.

314
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: Drake Nico is second in the league in yards per

315
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: catch behind Tyreek Hill. How about that. I mean, this

316
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 2: is your guy. You've talked about him, how big he

317
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 2: is for this offense. And he came up big again yesterday.

318
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 2: And he also made a play sort of defense, if

319
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: you will, because he had a couple after you.

320
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he had what four catches for eighty yards yesterday?

321
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, then he.

322
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 3: And Robert had a great stat I didn't.

323
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 4: Get a chance to get it over the air, but

324
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: it was second in receiving our yards per catch. And

325
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 4: then something else was thrown in there as well. But

326
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 4: you know, you're talking about a guy. We're watching a

327
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 4: player grow up right before our eyes, and it was

328
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 4: just health issues and keeping him healthy.

329
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 3: Uh, so that he could reach his potential. And whatever they've.

330
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 4: Done in the off season program, whatever they're doing there

331
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 4: during the season, and the in terms of their lifting

332
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 4: program and all of it, because you have to keep

333
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 4: your body in shape. You just don't lift all off

334
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 4: season and just stop. You've got to maintain and whatever

335
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 4: they're doing in that program, the strength and conditioning program

336
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 4: needs to be be complimented and recognized because a guy

337
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,359
Speaker 4: like Nico Collins has certainly benefited from the from that program.

338
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 4: He's starting to show exactly what he can become at

339
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 4: six four two fifteen. The speed, catching, the ball, breaking, tackles,

340
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 4: all of it. He is rounding into this team's number

341
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 4: one receiver.

342
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

343
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 5: One of the things I was reading Tyler Dunn. Ty Dunn,

344
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 5: he used to write for Buffalo. He has launched his

345
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 5: website golongtd dot com. He does a lot of long

346
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 5: form stories and he was doing one on the quarterbacks,

347
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 5: the young quarterbacks, and so obviously we want to talk

348
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 5: about CJ.

349
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: Stroud.

350
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 5: He was talking to Robert Woods and one of the

351
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 5: things that he noted. I saw the little blurb and

352
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 5: it said all I remember seeing was now Woods wants

353
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 5: to stay in Houston, And I just I read that, Drey,

354
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 5: and I started thinking the power of positivity, the power

355
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 5: of Demico, the power of Stroud for veterans to say,

356
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 5: you know what, I want to be here. Yeah, I

357
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 5: signed a one year deal, but I want to keep going.

358
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 5: Sheldon Rankins, Dalton Schultz. You know these guys with one

359
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 5: year contracts. How important do you think it is, Dre?

360
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 5: That there has become these positive vibes that the team

361
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 5: is playing well. But you can look at some of

362
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 5: those vets that signed shorter deals and say, hey man,

363
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 5: we want you to stay here, and the players say, heycky,

364
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 5: I want to be here.

365
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can.

366
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 4: You can point to a lot of variables in that

367
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 4: that deal. But the one that's constant with players that

368
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 4: want to be a part of a certain organization is

369
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 4: if they have a quarterback that the players feel like

370
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 4: they can win with.

371
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 3: And that's what it boils down to.

372
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 4: If you've been a round, you're a veteran player, you

373
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 4: bounced around a little bit from here to there, and

374
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 4: and you know, he's obviously had a he had a

375
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 4: great run with the Rams. But when you find a

376
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 4: place where you feel like you can you can win

377
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 4: and the quarterback is entrenched and he's part of the

378
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 4: winning culture and the positivity that you described, that's where

379
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,640
Speaker 4: players want to be. Look at what what Aaron Rodgers

380
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 4: did for the Jets. Now four games in, he's he's

381
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 4: done with a with achilles injury. But uh, everybody wanted

382
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 4: to bolt to New York when Aaron Rodgers went there.

383
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 4: It's kind of the on a lesser scale, kind of

384
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 4: the same with CJ.

385
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,160
Speaker 3: Now with the way he's.

386
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 4: Playing, Robert has the ability up close and personal to

387
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 4: see it every single day and the development and the growth,

388
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 4: and so you want to be a part of that.

389
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 4: And he's getting the football on third downs a lot

390
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 4: of times, so that goes a long way in and

391
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 4: of itself. But if you feel like you've got a

392
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 4: chance to win and you've got the right guy at

393
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 4: that quarterback to win with, especially at receiver. That's where

394
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 4: guys want.

395
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 2: To be, all right. CBS Bowl Projection Tax Act Texas

396
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 2: Bowl December twenty seventh, Oklahoma State against Texas A and M.

397
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 2: Right here, Oh, I'll take that.

398
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 8: I take that one.

399
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 3: I think I had. I think I had that game

400
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 3: last year.

401
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 4: And if that's the game I've already had Oklahoma State.

402
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 3: I kind of know what Texas A and.

403
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 4: M is all about because I watch them. It seems

404
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: like every every Saturday, I'm peeking in on what the

405
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 4: Aggies are doing and at some point in time. So

406
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 4: that'd be a great matchup, a really really solid matchup

407
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 4: with you know Big twelve in the SEC, and you

408
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 4: get you know, some Big twelve rivalry there.

409
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 3: That got they faced each other.

410
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 4: And having been in the same conference a few years ago,

411
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 4: that that would be one heck of a matchup.

412
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 3: I'd sign up for that one right now.

413
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 4: I get college and Oklahoma State travels well, they're gonna

414
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 4: travel well and sell a bunch of A and M.

415
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 4: It's basically a home game for Texas A and M.

416
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 4: So that place would be packed, it would be wild.

417
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,959
Speaker 4: It would be one of the more attended Bowl games.

418
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 4: If those are the two teams that match up of

419
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 4: any that are out there.

420
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 2: I know it's hard, but and maybe this is a

421
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: rhetorical question, why is it so difficult to win in

422
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,919
Speaker 2: college station? I mean, you're there with Camelot As far

423
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: as facilities, I can.

424
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: Tell you because you get you get Disney, I played there.

425
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 4: Uh you actually, when we were told by Jack Party,

426
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 4: who played his college football at Texas A and M,

427
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 4: when we come out of the tunnel, when we come

428
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 4: out of this locker room, your eyes don't go up

429
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 4: until we come back in here because they go up

430
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 4: if they go up, and they're swaying back and forth

431
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 4: and all of that.

432
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 2: But it's an effect that haunts you. I'm talking about

433
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 2: why the Aggies can't win, though, Drake, because.

434
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 3: You're talking about the other side of the other side.

435
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: Yes, because that's beyond me.

436
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 4: I mean you you got to hire somebody to figure

437
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 4: that one out. Why does Texas underachieve every year and

438
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 4: they're not in the playoff tary? They are because they're

439
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 4: given that position every year. Every single year, Texas will

440
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 4: start the season in a position to contend to move

441
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 4: into a spot in the playoffs.

442
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 3: It's just given to them.

443
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 4: It's given the Notre Dad, It's given to Michigan because

444
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 4: of the you know the name of the school.

445
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 3: It's actually given.

446
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 4: They don't earn it, they just give it to them,

447
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 4: and they disappoint every year.

448
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 3: And you just wonder, why is that.

449
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 4: Why can't that program be like in Alabama or a Georgia.

450
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 4: It's there's no reason for it, none whatsoever.

451
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 3: But it's that way. And and having.

452
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 4: Played at A and M, there's no way they should

453
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 4: ever lose a home game with that kind of home

454
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 4: field advantage.

455
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: So let me ask you both.

456
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 5: You said Oklahoma State A and M in Taxak, Texas bool, right, Yeah,

457
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 5: if that finishes out that way, is Jimbo Fisher coaching

458
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 5: in that game for the Aggies? And moving forward this

459
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:25,479
Speaker 5: is for both of them.

460
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 4: They're gonna try to They're gonna try to get some

461
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 4: some bags together.

462
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 3: Uh.

463
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 4: You're gonna hear of a lot of a lot of

464
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 4: meetings going on if that's.

465
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 3: If that's.

466
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 4: If that's the case, I don't know that Jimbo's coaching

467
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 4: in that game. If if that's, I don't know if

468
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 4: it will all depend on how it's eight and four. Uh,

469
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 4: get you into to that game and uh and keep

470
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 4: his job. I don't know, because someone put a lot

471
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 4: of eight and fours together and they ran him out

472
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 4: of town quick.

473
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 2: I don't know. If I'm an administrator and I know

474
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 2: this is a group effort with the universities. If I

475
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 2: ever give a coach a ten year contract who hasn't

476
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 2: won a championship for me right a league or get

477
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 2: me into the playoff, get me to the championship.

478
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: Me, but then extended, you can't.

479
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 4: You can't get from under the contract fast enough or

480
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 4: easy enough if you need to. And if if the

481
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 4: guy is a model citizen that's not going to give

482
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 4: you cause to fire him, then you're stuck.

483
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 3: You're gonna pay every dime.

484
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes want.

485
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 4: Something drip into the contract that obviously gets you. You

486
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 4: know you can, you can figure a way out of it.

487
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 4: But uh, that's that's almost impossible.

488
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 5: There are plenty of baggies, if you know what I mean,

489
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 5: out there, there's baggs with bags out there.

490
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 3: They got they got bags with bags with bags.

491
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 4: They got three levels of bags that they that on

492
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 4: the A and M. I mean they they they got

493
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 4: in the sec pretty easily and and out of the

494
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 4: Big twelve, and then they've been able to get pretty

495
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 4: much whatever coach they've wanted over the last couple of hirings.

496
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 4: So the money's not a problem. If they want to

497
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 4: make a change, they can make one. Hey, quick thought,

498
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 4: is this anyway?

499
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 3: What year is this?

500
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 8: Jim? Oh?

501
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 3: Gosh, seven?

502
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 2: Well but you got extended. He's got a bunch left right.

503
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 3: Oh wow, that's on them.

504
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 2: I think it goes like twenty forty. I don't know,

505
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 2: quick you here, God, you.

506
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 4: Could get that contract maybe, but you would have to

507
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 4: in terms of getting an extension on the in addition

508
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 4: to the ten years, you gotta win a championship.

509
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 2: Quick thought, you would have footballpionship to get an extension.

510
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 2: Flag foot, Yes, I agree. I agree. Flag football is

511
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 2: an Olympics sport five on five the way it was

512
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 2: meant to be played. Stop with the seven on seven crap.

513
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 2: It's a five on five game. Play five on five

514
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 2: in all leagues anyway. Dre thoughts on flag football being

515
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 2: an Olympic sport.

516
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 3: I'm all right with that. I had Mariah was on

517
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 3: our crew. Don't ask me what her job was, but

518
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 3: she was.

519
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 4: A phenomenal, and I mean phenomenal flag football player. We'd

520
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 4: play catch on Fridays when I got into town and

521
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 4: things of that sort of all around the truck.

522
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 3: We'd get all the guys involved.

523
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 4: And I started watching some of the games that she

524
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 4: played in, and it gets competitive.

525
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 3: So I'm all about it. Let's sign me up for it.

526
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 4: I loved watching it, and and she was in a

527
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,400
Speaker 4: co ed league, and so it was the real deal.

528
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 4: They would travel all down to Mexico play nationally. I mean,

529
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 4: it was for real, for real, and so I wouldn't

530
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised if it's in this round of

531
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 4: the Olympics something up that she would be that her

532
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 4: and some maybe some of her teammates, certainly some of

533
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 4: the players that she's played on or against would be

534
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 4: would be in a part of the Olympics coming up.

535
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 2: It's for twenty eight, not twenty four. Anyway, Thanks so

00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,840

00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 7: Luckily for us, we get Indy every single Monday. Check

578
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 7: it out.

579
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 2: What did you see yesterday that you liked? There was

580
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: so much to like.

581
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 8: I like the w That's what I like the most,

582
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 8: getting the win.

583
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 6: Uh.

584
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 8: You brought up Blake Cashman had a chance to catch

585
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 8: up with him before the game. Just one of those,

586
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 8: and I'm sure John will feel the same way. When

587
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 8: you talk to him away from the field, you just

588
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 8: become a fan. And that's like a lot of these

589
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 8: Houston Texans. But I knew about Blake when he was

590
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 8: with the Jets, and he was a guy that if

591
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 8: it wasn't for the injuries, you might be talking about

592
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,879
Speaker 8: him as being one of the jets best linebacker, but

593
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 8: he was in a situation where he just got injured

594
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 8: at the wrong time. He was he was either undrafted

595
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 8: or a late round pick, but he got to play

596
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 8: early and he showed signs, but he was in the

597
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 8: training room too often, but went healthy. This is a

598
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 8: guy that can be a solid starter for any NFL team.

599
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, Indy, it's been amazing to watching one of the

600
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 5: last four weeks, he's been in man coverage of Calvin Ridley,

601
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 5: Kyle Pitts, George Pickens, and then yesterday he was on

602
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 5: Taysom Hill.

603
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: He had a great breakup down the field. Andy.

604
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 5: You know, you and I like to talk about what

605
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 5: happened on the interior, and I thought there were some

606
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 5: guys that stood out. But the Texans run for one

607
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 5: hundred and what twenty yards yesterday.

608
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: I feel like we should have a mini party.

609
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 5: What'd you see inside the physicality of the game yesterday

610
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 5: that helped the Texans get that win?

611
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 8: You know, they were just physical and you see when

612
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 8: you're watching the line of scrimmage, when you're watching the trenches,

613
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 8: when you see that offensive line get that push and

614
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 8: they push that defensive line even if it's just half

615
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,120
Speaker 8: a yard or yard back that really helps your run game.

616
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 8: And you saw the physicality of it. And look, it's

617
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 8: the elephant in the room, Devin Singletary getting more carries.

618
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 8: He had twelve carries fifty eight yards with the longer seventeens.

619
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 8: So what that tells me is that it wasn't a

620
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 8: situation where he was able to gain fifty eight yards

621
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 8: because he had one of those forty yard scampers. If

622
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 8: you take away his long, he's still averaging close to

623
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 8: four yards four yards of carry if you take away

624
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 8: that long. So I really like the mix between Devin Singletary,

625
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 8: Damian Pierce and just the push from the offensive line.

626
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go there for a moment. D Because Singletary

627
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 2: didn't carry the ball at all against Atlanta, carries it yesterday.

628
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 2: Pierce still had some really nice runs along the way.

629
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: The yard per carry average higher for Singletary, But what

630
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,239
Speaker 2: about those two backs, And as a coaching staff, they

631
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: have to say, hey, look, this is a team game

632
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 2: and we're going to divide it up. And as long

633
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 2: as Pierce gets his and he'll get his opportunities, everybody

634
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 2: should be okay with it.

635
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 8: Right when they first brought on Devin Singletary. I thought

636
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 8: it was such a good move, and this is what

637
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 8: I expected, Mark, I expected. Now, this was a dang

638
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 8: near or perfect split. Thirteen carries for Damien twelve for

639
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 8: Devin Singletary. But I was shocked last week when Devon

640
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 8: didn't have one carry. So this is what I expected.

641
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 8: This is a proven back in the NFL, Devin Singletary.

642
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 8: You know he can catch out of the backfield. He's

643
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 8: a shifty guy. He's had a success in the NFL.

644
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 8: This was the expectation, and I expect this is what

645
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 8: we're going to see for the remainder of the season.

646
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 8: During this Brint this break, excuse me, this off week,

647
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 8: I bet the offensive coordinator is going to be sitting

648
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 8: down and saying, Hey, how can we put Devin Singletary

649
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 8: in more packages? How can we have more plays for

650
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 8: Devin Singletary. You want to have two productive backs. You

651
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 8: want to have that Ezekiel Elliott Tony Pollard type of

652
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,479
Speaker 8: tandem in the back, and I think the text has

653
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 8: just had to learn how to utilize these two talented backs.

654
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 5: Indeed, I was writing last night and I got to

655
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 5: the portion of my article I was talking about CJ.

656
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 5: Stroud and I wrote I wrote the word rookie, and

657
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 5: know what, I had to stop for a second and think, whoa.

658
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's still a rookie.

659
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 5: He's six games in now that we go into the

660
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 5: buy it's not really first half of the season, the

661
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 5: second half of the season, but hey, he's more than

662
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 5: a rookie.

663
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: What have you seen from CJ Stroud? What's been good?

664
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 5: What's been things you want to see in the second

665
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 5: half that he can improve on. I know it's not

666
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 5: right half six one way, eleven the other, but you know,

667
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 5: and I went to Brown, so I get the math,

668
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 5: but first half, second half, what would you like to

669
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 5: see CJ do even better?

670
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: And one of the things that he's doing really well,

671
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: now you.

672
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 8: Know, it's the intangibles, John, Like, it's funny you bring

673
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 8: that up. I was thinking about this after the game.

674
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 8: I remember all the pre draft hype and who's the

675
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 8: most NFL ready quarterback and who should go number one?

676
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 8: And you know, it felt like, and maybe this is

677
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 8: the whole woe is Houston fan base mentality, but it

678
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 8: just felt like CJ was an afterthought with when they say, okay,

679
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 8: the category of most pro ready quarterback right now, or

680
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 8: the best quarterback who's going to have the most success

681
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 8: moving forward. His name was always up in there, but

682
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 8: what we're seeing, I mean, it's almost like by far

683
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 8: he was the most pro ready or he is the

684
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 8: most pro ready quarterback when you factor in Anthony Richardson.

685
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 8: And I know he was injured and you can't control

686
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 8: or predict injuries, but his style of play is going

687
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 8: to open him up for that more so than the others.

688
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 8: Bright's young. We see his struggles, but I really am

689
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,479
Speaker 8: impressed to answer your question with his mentality, with his

690
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 8: cerebral approach to the game, with the way the guy

691
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 8: bounces back from from bad plays. I mean, he threw

692
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 8: his first interception of the season last year. Excuse me,

693
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 8: he threw his first interception of the season this past game.

694
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 8: But he just bounced right back and credit Nico Collins.

695
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 8: I know I'm all over the place, but I want

696
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 8: to make sure I get this in. That may have

697
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 8: been the play of the game when he stripped. I

698
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 8: don't know if you had a chance to talk about it, yep,

699
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 8: But for Nico Collins to turn into a defensive back,

700
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 8: to turn into Peanut Tillman. I don't know if y'all

701
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 8: remember that name from the Chicago Bears and get that

702
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 8: ball back. I mean that that to me was the

703
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 8: play of the entire game. But just the way CJ.

704
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 8: Stroud was able to bounce back. He has that short memory.

705
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 8: He wasn't sitting there sulking to himself about that mistake,

706
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 8: and he just looks like a pro. And as far

707
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,239
Speaker 8: as far as what do I want to see him

708
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 8: improve on, I almost feel like it's not my place

709
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 8: to say, because I just want to see him continue

710
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 8: to get consistent, continue to grow as a leader. But

711
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 8: I'm not going to say I want to see him

712
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 8: improve on the deep ball. I want to see him

713
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 8: improve with accuracy because I just think just overall, as

714
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 8: long as he continues to get better in all of

715
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 8: those categories, we're talking about a guy that is going

716
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 8: to be what Deshaun Watson was supposed to be for

717
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 8: the Houston Texans.

718
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: I mean, this was a blood and guts game and

719
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 2: it's going so well for CJ. Stroud that he throws

720
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 2: a pick on second down and ends up the next

721
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 2: snap is a first down after his interception. Cool, that's

722
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: how good he is.

723
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: That's truly the magic you're talking about. Yes, that's magic.

724
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 2: I am so good. I'm gonna throw an interception and

725
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 2: get a first down out of this, watch this hold

726
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 2: mine whatever, yeah yeah, and then score. So it's going

727
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: that well for him. And it's not about the numbers

728
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 2: because guess what, Derek Carr comes out of the game

729
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 2: with a higher quarterback rating than CJ. Stroud. That shows

730
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 2: you what quarterback rating means. And I'm into the numbers

731
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: when they suit my argument. But man, it is a

732
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 2: tremendous start for him. Sheldon rankins, and I'm gonna get

733
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 2: this audio because it was on Inside the Game yesterday,

734
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 2: which is one of our shows on ABC thirteen. It's

735
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 2: Sunday night's at ten thirty five. I'll get the audio.

736
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 2: But when I saw it, it was I was passing out.

737
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 2: But he said, there is no rebuild. We're winning right now.

738
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 2: We're going I'm paraphrasing here, semi paraphrasing. We're going for

739
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 2: it right now. We're going for wins. It's not like

740
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 2: we have time. We're going to go out and win.

741
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 2: And that's the quest. That's what they're trying to do here.

742
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 2: The three and three look a lot of teams are

743
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 2: right in this mix right now. But Andy, what do

744
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,839
Speaker 2: you think of that these guys are so young, This

745
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,439
Speaker 2: is a long season, and the rebuild, if you want

746
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 2: to call it that or reload, whatever the re is,

747
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 2: is way ahead of schedule. It would appear, you.

748
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 8: Know, And I love that, and I love that Sheldon

749
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,439
Speaker 8: Rankins said that because keep in mind, well, when you say, hey,

750
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 8: this is a rebuild year, that's just a nice way

751
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 8: of saying, hey, this team sucks and hopefully they'll be

752
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 8: getting in a couple of years. But like you, if

753
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 8: you really break down, what doesn't mean to be part

754
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 8: of a rebuild year, it means, hey, this team just

755
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 8: isn't the team. So you got guys like Sheldon Rankers,

756
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 8: who excuse me, Sheldon Rankins, who has a lot of pride,

757
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 8: He's played a lot of ball in this league. Then

758
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 8: you got guys like Jerry Hughes. Yes, this is a

759
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 8: very young team with young stars when you start talking

760
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 8: about Nico Collins obviously, CJ. Stroud, Will Anderson, but you

761
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 8: also get a lot of accomplished guy on this football

762
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 8: team with Jimmy Ward, Jerry Hughes, Sheldon Rankins, who were

763
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 8: talking about those guys aren't waiting around for three or

764
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 8: four years because a lot of them won't be on

765
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 8: this roster, and so they're not trying to rebuild right now.

766
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 8: They're trying to win now. And I feel like that's

767
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 8: just not talk with Sheldon Rankins because even the young

768
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 8: guys are living up to what he's saying. Henry toldtoa

769
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 8: a fifth round pick who's a starter in this league.

770
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 8: Now he's playing like a season bet because he wants

771
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 8: to win now. When you're drafted that late, your goal

772
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 8: is to make the team. You know, they have a

773
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 8: lot of late round draft picks. Now they're not just

774
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 8: trying or satisfied with making the team. They're trying to

775
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 8: make plays and win this AFC South. So I love

776
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,959
Speaker 8: that Sheldon Rankins said it, But what I love more

777
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 8: we're seeing it on the field of their play.

778
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 5: Andy we talked about this a little bit, but getting

779
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 5: the win going into the bye versus taking an L

780
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 5: going into the bye, what is it? What does it

781
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 5: mean to these guys to get the win as you

782
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 5: go into.

783
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: An off week.

784
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:58,280
Speaker 3: That is huge.

785
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 8: I mean they're three and three, so not just going

786
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 8: into the buy with the win, but going in and

787
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 8: evening that record out, so you're going into the buy

788
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 8: without a losing record. If this team was one in

789
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 8: five but their first win was the Saints going into

790
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 8: the bye, we would still be talking about, oh man,

791
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 8: at least they got that win going into the buy.

792
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 8: But now they got the victory and they've even the

793
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 8: record out. We should be talking about as fans, we

794
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 8: should be talking about what they need to do to

795
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 8: win the AFC South, Like this isn't a rebuild years

796
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 8: saying that, oh, there's no way they're going to win

797
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 8: the AFC South. We just hope that they can compete. No,

798
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 8: when you look at what's going on in the AFC

799
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,240
Speaker 8: South and when you look at what this team is doing.

800
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 8: As a fan, and I'm a huge fan just a

801
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 8: football in general, but obviously what the Texas are doing,

802
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,720
Speaker 8: the expectations should be they should win the AFC South.

803
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 2: We'll talk about I'm doing it.

804
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 8: I'm not predicting, but I'm just saying that should be

805
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 8: the expectation.

806
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,320
Speaker 2: Well, it's ahead of you, right, you have the opportunities

807
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 2: here in front of you. There's no question about that.

808
00:36:57,840 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 2: And we'll ask you more about this next week. But

809
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 2: coming out of the buy. What is it important about

810
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,479
Speaker 2: what you do this week as a player and coming

811
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 2: out of the buy and getting the mojo back in

812
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 2: gear for your next game, which is Carolina two weeks

813
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 2: from yesterday on the road.

814
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 8: This bike came a little early, But I remember when

815
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 8: Andy Reeves would tell us leave, go away, don't even

816
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 8: take your playbook because he understands the mental grind as

817
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 8: well as the physical. That would be my you know,

818
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 8: that would be my advice to some of these players,

819
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 8: And I'm sure to Miko, being a former player for

820
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,320
Speaker 8: as long as he played, he's going to do some

821
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 8: resemblance of this, but just to let them just get away.

822
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 8: For those guys that.

823
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 3: Aren't from Texas, which is most of them.

824
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 8: Go home, don't even think about your playbook for a

825
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 8: few days, so you come back re energize. So that

826
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,759
Speaker 8: to me, that's the most important part. Excuse me, I

827
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 8: got a call. That's the most important part about the offset.

828
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,239
Speaker 8: The off week is just getting away mentally and physically.

829
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 2: So I'm sure go ahead and cough.

830
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 5: Yeah cough, I mean we'll bury a couple of inning centers.

831
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 5: Ask this question, mark Mark Andre and I always have

832
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 5: this text on Sunday at about I don't know, eleven

833
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 5: forty five when we should be starting the pregame ind

834
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 5: and we're like, man, I feel like I should be somewhere.

835
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 5: This is Is it weird when you have the buy

836
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 5: to be like, Okay, what do I do today? Or

837
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 5: as a player, where you just I'm so happy not

838
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 5: to be playing and my body getting beat up. I'm

839
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 5: just I'm resting and I'm fine with that. Or do

840
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 5: you get that feeling of I feel like I should

841
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 5: be somewhere today?

842
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: This is kind of odd.

843
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 8: That's a great question. And I could tell you play

844
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 8: you know, college football, because even though you're appreciative of

845
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 8: the time off and you know you're expecting it and

846
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 8: you plan it in your head because everything you do

847
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 8: is by a schedule, like to the hour. So there's

848
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 8: a part of you is like, oh wait, I don't

849
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 8: have to be in this meeting. What should I do?

850
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 8: Or I have to show up at the stadium? You know,

851
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 8: where should I go? Then you get a chance to

852
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 8: sit back and watch the games. That's the one thing

853
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 8: I really enjoyed during the bye week because you don't

854
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 8: have time to watch all the NFL games. So when

855
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 8: you get a chance to like to sit and watch

856
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 8: the games, watch your guys that you played college with

857
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 8: or you played against in college, your friends around the league.

858
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 8: That's when it really hits you, like, oh, I'm truly off.

859
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 8: When you get to sit back and enjoy the games

860
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 8: on Sunday.

Speaker 5: don't anticipate my daughter being there, but I got a

891
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 5: text from her last week and she goes, yes, where

892
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:40,040

Speaker 7: a picture.

895
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 5: She's sitting behind the plate at DIYer Stadium against the

896
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 5: Diamondbacks Game two. She saw the Diamondbacks beat the Dodgers.

897
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 5: It was awesome, it was awesome to see.

898
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 7: That, she said. It was fun.

899
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 5: Friend of hers, I guess uncle works for She's got

900
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 5: some great seats. So I don't expect it to be

901
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 5: at so Far, but I will be watching we'll be

902
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 5: listening because it's football, and it's Charters, and of course

903
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,439
Speaker 5: it's Cowboys, so we'll have all that going on.

904
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 7: Going on right now is John McClain. John knows Astros,

905
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 7: he knows Texans, he knows football. We know him, he

906
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 7: knows us.

907
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: Let's go three and three heading into the BAI.

908
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 2: If I had told you that in July, would you

909
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 2: think it could happen?

910
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: What happened?

911
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 2: Would you have taken it? Thoughts would have taken it.

912
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 9: But I would have never thought it could happen because

913
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 9: this team didn't win its third game to eighteenth week

914
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 9: of the season last year. And what impressed me yesterday

915
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 9: was the big plays they made on the last two drives,

916
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 9: and with Skill O'Neill and Blake Skill O'Neill, Skill Griffin

917
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 9: and Blake Cashman made that great stop on Alvin Kamara's

918
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 9: two yards short of the first down on fourth down,

919
00:41:55,800 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 9: and then Steven Nelson was able to intercept the last

920
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 9: pass at the two yard line, and of course it

921
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 9: helped that the saintsmiss two field goals, including that twenty

922
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 9: nine yard chips up then the fourth quarter. You know

923
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:12,800
Speaker 9: the way they play, they play a lot of seat

924
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 9: coverage to make a team keep them from hitting big plays.

925
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 9: Now they did with Steven Nelson got beat on the

926
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 9: fifty one yarder. But they want you to say, is

927
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,960
Speaker 9: Hanks trams to say, make them matriculate down the field

928
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 9: where it gives you a better chance to get turnovers.

929
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 9: But it was big plays. But the defense that they

930
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 9: didn't get the week before, you think how close they

931
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 9: are to being four and two. And when you look

932
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 9: at the schedule and you look at the division, the

933
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 9: only team that seems to be really good is Jacksonville.

934
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,239
Speaker 9: They hammered the Jaguars. When the Jaguars come here, that

935
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 9: looks like it's going to be a big game.

936
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 5: General, your thoughts on the running game situation with Devin

937
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,319
Speaker 5: Singletary not getting any carers or touches last week, but

938
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 5: then he has thirteen runs, one reception if my matthis correct, no,

939
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 5: twelve rushes, one catch, so he gets thirteen touches. Damian

940
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 5: Pierce has thirteen touches split fifty to fifty touch Wise,

941
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 5: your thoughts about Singletary and Schultz going fifty to fifty

942
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 5: with the touches.

943
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 9: Their running game inside the five is awful. Three negative

944
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,359
Speaker 9: carries for Damian Piers. It's not all over him. It's

945
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 9: the line as well. But coaches make mistakes too. Coaches

946
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 9: have to learn. Bobby Slowyck said this week, you know

947
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,720
Speaker 9: he should have gotten singletary of the ball last week,

948
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 9: and you wonder if they got it to him a

949
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 9: little bit, if it been enough to help them beat

950
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 9: the Falcons. But as this they made sure he got it.

951
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 9: He goes better. I watched Peers closely. Peers like he

952
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 9: had that physical run in which he got down I

953
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,760
Speaker 9: think to the one yard line. Fans went crazy. That's

954
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 9: not what this offense is about. In two three times

955
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 9: he didn't the hole like he was supposed to. But

956
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 9: he's The offense is work in progress for the lineman

957
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 9: and as well as the backs. But one hundred and

958
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 9: twenty yards, even though ninety seven of them came in

959
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:13,440
Speaker 9: the first half, was the second best output of the season.

960
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 9: And they should get better. And as the Lion gets

961
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,240
Speaker 9: healthier and they decide what they want to do up front.

962
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 9: Offensive line coach Chris strausser, when everybody's healthy, how do

963
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 9: you want the line to look when they come out

964
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 9: of the fie week And they should have Tank Dell

965
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,839
Speaker 9: back I don't know why Tavia or Thomas hasn't been

966
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 9: active considered he's full participation in practice. Should Giel Griffin

967
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 9: is playing well? How many more games does Derek Stingley

968
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,400
Speaker 9: Junior need to miss?

969
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 2: Why he's eligible? Did he go off?

970
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 1: Did he go on ir after week two or week

971
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: two because he played against.

972
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 2: So he's eligible to come back against Carolina.

973
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 9: So then the bye week would be good for him

974
00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 9: if he's healthy. So they're getting in better physical edition

975
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 9: is showing on the field, and the confidence that the

976
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 9: defensive players must have for stopping and winning that game

977
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 9: is through the roof. And Blake Cashman, rated number one

978
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 9: linebacker in the NFL by Pro Football Focus last week.

979
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 9: He should be better after fifteen tackles. I went back

980
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 9: and looked over his career, and he was on our

981
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 9: his whole first three years. Now he's gotten healthy here.

982
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 9: He ran a four or five to zero at the

983
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 9: combat and so he's making a kind of plays that

984
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 9: linebacker's making. Demiko's defense all right.

985
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 2: General, the Titans lost overseas to the Baltimore Ravens, a

986
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: gettable game, but they didn't get it and Tannehill gets hurt.

987
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 2: They have the buy they're going to elect to take

988
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,480
Speaker 2: the bye following the London trip, and they'll be back

989
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 2: when the Texans are back, as they will face the

990
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 2: Falcons at home. We don't have to talk about them,

991
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 2: but man, they looked like a different team yesterday. And

992
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 2: it's too bad that Texans weren't playing that version of

993
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 2: Desmond Ritter. But anyway, what do you make of Tennessee

994
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:03,479
Speaker 2: with Tannehill, with the ankle injury and whatever they're going

995
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 2: through Right now at two and four, it looks like.

996
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 9: They're going to struggle all season. They had to rebuild

997
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 9: their line. They they've had injuries just like Texans, but

998
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 9: they're not running the ball well and they don't throw

999
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 9: it well enough. Ryan Tannel is not like CJ's drout.

1000
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 9: He can't throw it without a running game, and he

1001
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 9: just struggles so much. He got hit a lot, he

1002
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 9: got hurt. They put Milick Willison in. He was not

1003
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,280
Speaker 9: very good, and so I think they're going to compete

1004
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 9: for last place and with somehow they can get that

1005
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 9: running game going. It worked in the second half better

1006
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 9: than the first. But right now Texans is the second

1007
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 9: best team in the division. And why couldn't Gardner Minshew

1008
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 9: play like that against the Texans the way he played yesterday,

1009
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 9: because he was awful and the Colts got stomped.

1010
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 5: Well, the Colts did get stopped, but that's going to

1011
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 5: happen to Duvaal County. I mean, we kind of we

1012
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 5: kind of know that. We've resigned ourselves to that. But Jenmer,

1013
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 5: what do you make of, Well, Hey, the Browns getting

1014
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 5: a win yesterday without Deshaun Watson, and what do you

1015
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 5: think is going on with Deshaun Watson.

1016
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 9: There's different reports. One of them Madam Schefter said he

1017
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 9: could play Sunday. Well, that means he could not play

1018
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 9: Mary Kay Cabot that covers that team for decades, she

1019
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 9: said he could be out for multiple weeks. You see there,

1020
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 9: we're talking about Miami's offense and the points in the

1021
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 9: yards and Cleveland's defense has giving up the fewest yards

1022
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 9: at this point since nineteen seventy one. Well I graduated

1023
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 9: from high school. It is historically good under Jim Schwartz,

1024
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 9: and for b. J. Walker to win that game, to

1025
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 9: beat forty nine ers mainly on defense, is just almost unbelievable.

1026
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 5: Had a great time with the general talking about everything

1027
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 5: going on with the Texans, of course, the Astros and

1028
00:47:55,880 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 5: talking with Indy kalun arpal Andre where appreciate you guys listening. Man,

1029
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 5: This is really cool, especially going into bye week to

1030
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 5: be three and three of this football team.

1031
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 7: That was a fun afternoon. I really wish that you

1032
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:08,479
Speaker 7: were there with.

1033
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 5: Us, and there were a lot of Saints fans with us,

1034
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 5: but hopefully there'll be more Texans fans, I'll tell you this,

1035
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 5: and Texas fans that were in the building yesterday were loud.

1036
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:19,240
Speaker 5: They got the mission, man, they absolutely got the mission.

1037
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 5: We got to work on Texans swarm, but that's okay.

1038
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 5: They'll pick it up and by the time they do,

1039
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 5: it's gonna be a really good football team and it's

1040
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,840
Speaker 5: gonna be really fun at NRG Stadium going forward. But

1041
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 5: we're not there for well this week for sure because

1042
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 5: bye week and then we go to Carolina, so it's

1043
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 5: not until November sixth, I believe we play Tampa Bay

1044
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,720
Speaker 5: Buccaneers at Baker Mayfield. So get yourself geared up ready

1045
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 5: to go for November sixth, well before that, but November

1046
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,359
Speaker 5: six for sure, to be in the presence of the

1047
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 5: Texans and give it all you got because that's what

1048
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 5: this Texans team is doing for y'all. So we thank John,
