1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: Hello, he's got it. Rattlest touchdown, two stands and the 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: Texans go in front. Game day is every day. We 3 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: had a lot of energy and we brought a lot 4 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: of spark for this organization. You come five nights a week, 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: they hits keep on coming. The Texans say they have 6 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: it and they go no, it's Texans All exits, welcome 7 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: into Texans All Access on a Tuesday, just wrapped up 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: an hour with Darren Phills rejoining me once again, Mark Bannamer, 9 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: Drew Doherty, I'm DPCU you and you know what, guys, 10 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: if I had to do a radio show in a 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,239 Speaker 1: tropical storm, I couldn't pick two better co hosts to 12 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: do it with on this very rainy Tuesday. But you 13 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: know what, I think I think things are going to 14 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: start looking up this week, especially once this tropical storm passes, 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: because really this is just just so bleak and raining. 16 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: I mean it just I feel like it's got to 17 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: get better, and you know what it has to because 18 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: it's it's only week three, right, It's got to get better. 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,559 Speaker 1: I mean, look, this is you know, it's funny because 20 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: when you have to dig through the slow Start archives, 21 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, just to see other times the team has 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: started slow and done well because of it. And look, 23 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: this is the thing in the NFL. I mean, lots 24 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: of teams start over two and have really good seasons. 25 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: You just don't want to be in that position if 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: you can help it. But here they are, and you 27 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: don't want to be owing three. You were owing three 28 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: three two years ago and one nine in a row. 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: But I mean, how often is that kind of thing 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: going to happen? But we all knew this that it 31 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: was going to be really tough in the early going. 32 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,199 Speaker 1: Here we all do. The schedule got a little better 33 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: for lack of a better way of putting it, as 34 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: the season went along. But it doesn't mean it's easy 35 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: and you can lose to anybody. I mean, heck, Jacksonville 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: last year you were a two point conversion attempt away 37 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: from losing to them at Hall and you lost to Caroline, 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: you lost to Denver, so anything can happen. They also 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: beat really good teams last year, so a long way 40 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: to go. You just have to find a way to 41 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: bounce out of it, and hopefully it starts Sunday. Yeah, 42 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: And on top of that, there's supposed to be a 43 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: massive cold front coming through in like seven eight days 44 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 1: and we might get temperatures in the fifties. So that's 45 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: something weatherwise to look forward to. Well, you know what, 46 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: that does make me feel a little bit happier, Drew Doory. 47 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: I was trying to see if after this storm we 48 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: would we would get lower temperatures, and I think it's 49 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: still going to be ninety, which is not really what 50 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: you want after a tropical storm. But anyway, let's get 51 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: into some hot reads and we do have some maybe 52 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: you know some. We're just going to discuss this matchup 53 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: with the Steelers coming up, and go around the league 54 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: and to breakdown the Ravens matchup a little bit more 55 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: because there were some positives that came out of that game. 56 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: There were, I promise you. But first let's get into 57 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: some hot reads. Hot reads presented by Geico. Go to 58 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Geico dot com and in fifteen minutes, you could say 59 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: fifteen percent or more on car insurance. Well, the Texans 60 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: find themselves owen two and headed to Pittsburgh on Sunday 61 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: to face another tough defense and another talented quarterback. Bill 62 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: O'Brian said everything needs to get better, in particular turnovers 63 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 1: and penalties, and guys, when you look at the penalties 64 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: in Week two, they weren't so bad, four for twenty 65 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: two yards. But it's the turnover differential that might get 66 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: a little bit alarming if it continues at this rate, 67 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: because I know we talked about it with Anthony Weaver. 68 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: After Week one, Texans defense didn't force any turnovers. Well 69 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: for a second straight week, no takeaways from this defense. Meanwhile, 70 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: they've turned the ball over three times, so we're at 71 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: minus three right now through the first two weeks of 72 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: the season. That's got a change moving forward, because it 73 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: doesn't really matter how many yards you're putting up on 74 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: the ground if you can't protect the ball. All right, 75 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: You guys always joke about it. Mark has the fetish 76 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: for talking about the greatest preseason games in the preseason 77 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: moments in Texas history. My fetish, I guess, if there 78 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: is one is talking about turnover differential is Texans are 79 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: tied for next to last in the NFL in that category. 80 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: They're not doing well. They've got to flip it around, 81 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: and they haven't been. They haven't been really good in 82 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: this category since about a third of the way through 83 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: last year. I mean, they somehow managed to win ten 84 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: games last year despite being underwater right near the middle 85 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: of turnover differential. So it's kind of it's kind of 86 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: an outlying thing. It doesn't usually happen. So they've got 87 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get back to what 88 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: they were doing in two thousand and eight when they 89 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: were second in the league in it and flip this 90 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: thing around because it's just not working and they're in 91 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: a bad, bad spot. Now. It's still still early, so 92 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: it's kind of skewed, but they're not in the right 93 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: situation there as far as that goes well. And the 94 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: record in the O'Brien era is ridiculously good. When they 95 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: don't turn it over. I think they've only lost once 96 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: or maybe never. I got to look that up. So 97 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: and now I'm being interrupted by Now I'm interrupted by 98 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: my kid. But that's you know, broadcasting from the home studio, 99 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: the hun Day Texans radio studio at home. So I look, 100 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: you gotta find a way to get takeaways. This is 101 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: clear more hortuntly if you're gonna turn it over, there's 102 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: never a good time to do it. But in your 103 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: own end is just devastating. The turnover on downs early 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 1: against the Ravens. Obviously, the fumble that was returned for 105 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: a touchdown is it's a double dose of devastating because 106 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: you have no chance to make a stop after you 107 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: produced the turnover. So look and the Watson pick they 108 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 1: overcame that you in the game on Sunday. But and 109 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: all that being sad, guys, when in the second half 110 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: they're driving after giving up that eight plus minute drive 111 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: to begin the third quarter, and they fall behind the 112 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: way they did. If they hunch it in on the 113 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 1: ensuing drive, they're down six. They're down six, and I'm 114 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: not saying to win the game from that point, but man, 115 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: it's a very different situation. But they got the field goal, 116 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: they were down ten, and you know what happened from there. 117 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: It's turnovers kill. We all know it, Drew. You're absolutely right. 118 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: They were dead even in the turnover margin in twenty 119 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: nineteen with a ten and six record, and could have 120 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: been eleven and five if they had decided to play 121 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: the regulars in the last game. But you know, it 122 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: was a good decision not to. So you know, I 123 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: think that it'll come around, but it better starts suit 124 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: otherwise you're gonna be looking at more losses possibly. Yeah, 125 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: I'm just really looking forward to Drew's emails as the 126 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: season goes on, as we start getting into the positive 127 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: turnover differential, because it seems like once this defense starts 128 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: getting the takeaways they do. I know they always say 129 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: they come in bunches, but it really it really does 130 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: seem to work that way. And maybe they're situationally they're 131 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: just not around the ball. They're not in those spots 132 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: to get those takeaways, and once that starts coming, that 133 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: will also come. But I mean, I think they really 134 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: need to start turning that around this Sunday because it's 135 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: it's trending in a bad direction when they lose that 136 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: turnover turnover differential every week. A couple of injuries to 137 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: note in Sunday's game against the Ravens. They're gonna be 138 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: ones that we're gonna watch this week. Obviously, Well Fuller 139 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: was Billa Brown was asked about will Fuller and Colin Gillaspia, 140 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: who left the game and was evaluated for concussion. The 141 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: cun GLASPIEA that is will Fuller um no catches in 142 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: the game, but he Billibrand was asked about it. He says, 143 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: we'll see when the guys returned to practice this week, 144 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: so something to watch from Wednesday on. And also Duke Johnson, 145 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: he was inactive for this week two game. Um does 146 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 1: he get back on the field this week? The Texans 147 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: activated c J. Prosise, but he didn't get any carries. So, uh, 148 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: these are all players to watch. And of course with 149 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: all the injuries that happened in week two, Um, the 150 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: Texans are are not immune as well. But you know, 151 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: you're glad at least that these are all guys that 152 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, seem to be day to day and could 153 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: come back at any given point. It's nothing so serious 154 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: like like some of the games that I was watching 155 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: on Sunday. I mean I felt like guys were just 156 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: leaving left, right and center. Um, important, big, big starter, 157 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: big games in so many games. Yeah, there was a 158 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: it was an outbreak of calamities for a lot of 159 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: teams around the league on Sunday, like you're talking about 160 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: and the Texans knock on wood, it's it's been up, 161 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: you know, and two is no fun. But you're still 162 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: healthy and you still got all your big guns in order. 163 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: And it looks like the guys who are injured, like 164 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: you mentioned, just on the way back. So yeah, there's 165 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: small little silver linings in these dark clouds that have 166 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: been swirling around the Texans the first two weeks of 167 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: the season. Well, I remember in the offseason when they 168 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: picked up Cob and Cooks, a lot of people from 169 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 1: the outside we're saying, well, maybe they trade Kenny Stills 170 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: or something like that. I was thinking, please, don't do 171 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: anything like that, because Will Fuller does have injury issues. 172 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: And here we go again, and I'm just praying he 173 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: can get back on the field very soon here, because 174 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: he was great in Game one. The production was there, 175 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: and I thought it was kind of a quiet over 176 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: one hundred yards with eight catches, but you know, relatively, 177 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm thinking that we've seen him way more explosive than that. 178 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: Even those numbers were good though, and then Cooks and 179 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: Cob they combined for ten catches and over one hundred 180 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: and fifty yards. That was great. But you for Deshaun 181 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: in that you want to get all these guys on 182 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: the field together at the same time. And look, this 183 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: is what we've talked about for a few years. You know, 184 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: Fuller and Hopkins and Stills last year and you know, 185 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: just Fuller and Hopkins together at any point, and when 186 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: you did have those guys together and they were both healthy, 187 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: it was just magnificent what you were able to produce. 188 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: So to me, this is obviously one of concern will 189 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: Fuller's injury. Let's see him back. But if he doesn't 190 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,599 Speaker 1: come back, at least you got Stills, Randall Cobb, you 191 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: got Cooks and the fact that Cooks and Cobs started 192 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: to really come around in week two. They're playing together. 193 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: Now you know, they're getting more time together. This offense, 194 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: these pass catchers, you have to have that rhythm developed 195 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson and maybe you can start to see 196 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: some real dividends here because you know, I was talking 197 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: with Randy mckelboy and I said, it's kind of like 198 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: the baseball term of when you talk about timely hitting. Right, 199 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: we're getting the hits, but we're just not stringing them together. 200 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: They're getting plays, but they're just not stringing them together 201 00:09:58,520 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: enough to get into the end zone enough. You get 202 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: twenty points in one game sixteen to the next. This 203 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: offense has got to do better than that, especially against 204 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: these teams. These are not games you're going to grind 205 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: out and win twenty to seventeen. Not against the Ravens 206 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: and the Chiefs. You got to go into the high twenties, 207 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: low thirties minimum and dance with them and make it happen. 208 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: Get across the finish line with more than they do. 209 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: Obviously that didn't happen, but they'll get more opportunities here. 210 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: And here's another big one on Sunday with the Steelers. Yeah, 211 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: you mentioned Brandon Cooks. I mean, he started showing flashes 212 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: of what we had seen in training camp, and only 213 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: in week two. I think that's really encouraging. He averaged 214 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: what nineteen yards that catch, that one long thirty eight 215 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: yard pom. You just sort of hope that they can 216 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: build on it. And I know Bill O'Brien talked about 217 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: the explosive plays and there need to be more explosive 218 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 1: plays because that's what this offense is capable of. So 219 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: I would expect to see more of those moving forward. 220 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: I know that, you know, especially Pool Fuller's back on 221 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: the field. Even if he's not, someone else is gonna 222 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: have to step up in his place. But that's definitely 223 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: something they've discussed this week. Coming out of that Ravens 224 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: lost that there aren't they would like to take more 225 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: shots downfield, and I think that's the exciting part of 226 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: this offense is watching them take a shot deep and 227 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: you know, sort of put the nail on the coffin early. 228 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: Just get a long drive and get a quick drive 229 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: like that going especially early and out of the gates, 230 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: and not be playing from behind like they've been playing 231 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: for the last two weeks. So they really just need 232 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: to flip it, flip it around and fast. You know, 233 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: it's always interesting. I know you guys share this thought too. 234 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: It's always interesting to see what kind of our counterparts 235 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: are thinking about their own teams. So two weeks in, 236 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 1: the Steelers are two and oh, and there's a lot 237 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: of positivity there because you're, hey, you're two and in 238 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: the NFL. But it's interesting because a guy who's been 239 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: around a long time, Mark Madden, he's worked up there 240 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: in radio on the newspaper for a long time. He 241 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: basically said the Steelers have a two and o preseason 242 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: record because of the poor quality of teams that they've played. 243 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: He's saying that the Texans are the first test because 244 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: they've gone through the ringer in facing the defending champs 245 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: and facing a fourteen win team over a year ago. 246 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 1: So it's really kind of interesting to see that dynamic. Now. 247 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: I think, no matter what, that's a good Steelers defense. 248 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: But I do think you're you're stepping down a tier 249 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: in terms of quality of opponent, and that should help, 250 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: and that should mean something doesn't guarantee a win, doesn't 251 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: doesn't do any of that. But it's fascinating to hear 252 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: a take like that, an opinion like that, knowing all 253 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,599 Speaker 1: the troubles and Texans have gone through so far, and 254 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: maybe it's a little bit of a nice bit of perspective. Yeah, 255 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: I like that column that you forwarded me and Johnny, 256 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: and I think that it is good perspective on the 257 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: way the Steelers and their media see the world, you know. 258 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: I mean, when you're in that city and you've won 259 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: six Super Bowls, you definitely have a different kind of 260 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: look at things. And I think Mike Tomlin's a hell 261 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: of a coach. I mean, I know that they don't 262 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs every year, and when you look 263 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: at the AFC North, you know, the Ravens haven't won 264 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: a playoff game since twenty fourteen, and you know, everybody's 265 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 1: throwing a part for them. But they'll be the first 266 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 1: to tell you they got to do it in the postseason. 267 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: The Steelers will tell you they got to get to 268 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: the postseason and they got to do damage once they're there. 269 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: But they've got the tools to do it, man. I mean, 270 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: I look at Claypool, who they got from Notre Dame. 271 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: You know, he had that eighty four yard touchdown reception, Juju, 272 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: all the other weapons they have. They've transitioned pretty well 273 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: out of that Levian Bell Antonio Brown era to have 274 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: you know, Connor, who had a good game against Denver. 275 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: But I think the point was made well to you know, 276 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: your point about the level of competition that they played. 277 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: You know, the Texans had played Denver and the Giants. 278 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: You know, maybe they could grind out wins in the 279 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: first couple of weeks, but that didn't happen. But the 280 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: point was, Hey, the Steelers might be really good and 281 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 1: it really helped them that they played these teams and 282 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 1: what you know, they didn't play well for their standards, 283 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: but they won and learned. And boy, that's the best 284 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: way to learn to win and learn, right. I mean, 285 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: the Texans have done that the last few years as well, 286 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: and many games where you don't play your best necessarily, 287 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: but you win and you learn something about your team. 288 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 1: Now we've learned and lost in the first couple of 289 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: weeks to the top contenders in the AFC, and it hurt. 290 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: And luckily, you know, it's weeks one and two. You 291 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: rip off the band aid, you play these really difficult 292 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: opponents and hopefully you can move on and do much 293 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: better from here. All right, Well, Darren Fells discussed it 294 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: with us in the first hour, But no fans in 295 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: the home opener at NRG Stadium on Sunday. The Texans 296 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: are actually working to get fans into the stadium as 297 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: early as their next home game. They are hoping to 298 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: get fifteen thousand fans for their October fourth game against 299 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. Now, this is all pending clearance from 300 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: city county officials and of course following the NFL league protocols. 301 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: But guys, if that was the last empty stadium game 302 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: I ever see, you know what, I'm not going to 303 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: complain because that was just really bizarre. And I know 304 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: you guys have probably been asked about it as well. 305 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: We were all watching, the three of us. We're watching 306 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: from three different locations in the STADIU as well, Like 307 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: we were very socially distant. But I mean, was that 308 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: just not the craziest atmosphere for a game that you 309 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: ever And we were prepared for it. We were prepared 310 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: for an empty state and yet it still was surreal. 311 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: But you're still not prepared for that, you know, it's 312 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: just so weird. Weird was the word we heard Bill 313 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: O'Brien say a week ago coming into this. Weird was 314 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: the word we heard JJ Watt used after the game. 315 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 1: I was up on the five hundred level right before 316 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: the half, getting ready to do the halftime hit or 317 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: game day Central, and Chester Pitts and I have the 318 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: cans on and we're talking, and you know, the Texans 319 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: are on offense, are about to move. They're in their 320 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: own end of the field, and it just sort of 321 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: like happens, and we do our thing, and a minute 322 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: or two later, I turned around and there's seven points 323 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: on the scoreboard for the Ravens. Now had that happened 324 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: with fans, I mean, the collective grown would have shook us. 325 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: I mean we would have known. I would have turned 326 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: around immediately, which you just didn't know what was going on. 327 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: It's so disorienting going through something like that and seeing 328 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: something like that. And yeah, I'm with you, because you know, 329 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: if the Texans do let fifteen thousand something like that, 330 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: fans in, you're gonna hear it. They're gonna do a 331 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: good job of yelling and being loud, like Mark you 332 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: said they were in Kansas City a few weeks ago. 333 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: Because it's those most fervent fans, the loudest ones. They 334 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: will make some noise. It's not going to be sixty 335 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: thousand like you're used to that sort of level, but 336 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: it will be much much more aggressive sound wise for 337 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: these guys. And I can't wait to have them back 338 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: whenever that is, and however many people it is, it'll 339 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: just be good to have warm bodies, loud voices back 340 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: of the building. I had the same feeling you did 341 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: when LJ. Fort returned the fumble for a touchdown. I 342 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: almost thought they blew it dead because it was so quiet. 343 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: It was quiet, and I'm saying, you know, he's across 344 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: twenty the fifteen. Should I stop calling this play? I mean, 345 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: are we done here? Like I thought? Maybe QT was 346 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: ruled and incompletion or something, you know, and the heat 347 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: of live action. Clearly it wasn't. You saw the replay, 348 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: but I thought that in a split second because it 349 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: was so quiet, and there were times that I just, 350 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: like Andre was talking, I just lifted my headset off 351 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: my ears because what I'm hearing my ears is often 352 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: very different from the building anyway, and I was just thinking, 353 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: it's so dead in here. Now. They had noise on 354 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: the field on the field speakers. This is something I 355 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: just learned yesterday, that they have speakers on the field 356 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: that just direct noise onto the field. So they heard it. 357 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: The players heard it, but I think they still didn't 358 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: hear a tone, and so you know, you could use 359 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: a lot more. It wasn't loud, because after that I 360 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: went and I just stood by myself on the middle 361 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: of the five hundred level. I was like, what's that. 362 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: It was like a very very faint vovo zella. So 363 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: I remember from the cut back in twenty and ten 364 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: in South Africa they had those those long warns that 365 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: they blow. That's what it sounded like. But it was 366 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: just very very faint and that so I'm up five levels. 367 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: There's no way that that was loud to the players 368 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 1: either in fells. He mentioned that reference at you know, 369 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: in the last hour it was just a weird, weird 370 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: sound because he said Texans had a louder practice experience 371 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 1: as far as sound because they were getting you know, 372 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: a different sound system sent in. And you know, I 373 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: just I just when JJ Want got his first sack 374 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty season and did his salute and 375 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: it was cardboard cutouts in the end zone, I just 376 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: thought this place would be going nuts right now, and 377 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: then he had the second sack. You just think back 378 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: to the Buffalo game when JJ, I mean different circumstances, 379 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: but anytime JJ makes a big play, it just sort 380 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: of re energizes the crowd. The players feed off of it. 381 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like, you know, you really missed 382 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 1: that in a game atmosphere. But hopefully the next the 383 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: next game, even if it is fifteen thousand fans, I mean, 384 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: it's it will sound louder than nothing. Because that was 385 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: really really it was like it was like a library 386 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: in there, and you were not allowed to cheer in 387 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 1: the press box, so it was it was like it 388 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: sounds like in the press box, That's exactly how it 389 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: sounded out in the in the bowl. All right, Well, 390 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: speaking of JJ Watt, he is quietly looking like himself again. 391 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: Even though the team's owe in two what, He's passed 392 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: three players on the NFL's all time sack list. He 393 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,479 Speaker 1: is now a number at thirty six. He's got ninety 394 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: eight career sacks. What had a pair of sacks on 395 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. According to O'Brien, he nearly had a third 396 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: two in that Raven's loss. So What finished with two 397 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: solo tackles, the two sacks, two tackles for lass, one 398 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: pass defense, and three quarterback hits. So if there is 399 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: a silver lining out of all of this, it's that 400 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: JJ is looking like JJ again. And we forget that 401 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: even though he came back for the postseason, he wasn't 402 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: quite one hundred percent. He had to sort of work 403 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: his way back after the playoff games to rehab that 404 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: peck injury a little bit more. Yeah, and it's a 405 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: I guess this is another one of those dumb fetishes 406 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: I have, Like we used to do this with Andre 407 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: Johnson when he kept going up the list as far 408 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: as like who he's passing like it's a murderers row. 409 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: JJ's into now he passed Dexter Manley. He passed Mario Williams. 410 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: You forget Mario did have a lot of sacks in 411 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: his career. You know, up next, if he hits two more, 412 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 1: he ties Andre Tippett. I mean he um pass Warren Sapp. Yeah, 413 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: he passed Warren sapphim. That's a Hall of Famer now 414 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: at Jackson State University assistant coach with Dion Sanders as 415 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: the head coach. It's it's really impressive where he's going 416 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: and where he's headed, because if he has kind of 417 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 1: a JJ Watt like season and gets double digit sacks, 418 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna be in like the top twenty twenty five 419 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 1: by the time the season ends, and he's really in 420 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: striking distance of some some all time greats. First of all, 421 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: I remember Andre Tippett because I watched him as a 422 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: fan at Foxborough when when I was there in the eighties. 423 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: Awesome player. I think he was like a black belt 424 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: and cart too, so I gotta look that up. But yeah, 425 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: when you look at the guys who are on the 426 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,239 Speaker 1: top of that list, he's gonna have to play for 427 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: a while to get up there. Now, I still think 428 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: that he's you know, he could basically punch his car 429 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame right now, because this three 430 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: time Defensive Player of the Year does that for him. 431 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know how much longer he wants to go, 432 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: but man, he's still got it. He still got it. 433 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: They were crushing that pocket and it's tough to do 434 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: that against that team, against that quarterback. And that's what 435 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: gives me hope about this Sunday. That Rothlisberger is hard 436 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: to bring down. He's not gonna escape like Lamar Jackson. 437 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: He's just gonna stand there like a redwood tree, like 438 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to topple him somehow and just hang 439 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: on him and just get him down. So you better 440 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: bring some friends with you. But I liked what I 441 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: saw from the past rush on Sunday, and let's hope 442 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: that can continue. And I think Charles Amnahu we talked 443 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: about him so much in training camp and what he's 444 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: looked like out there, and I feel like him out 445 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: there with JJ. And then you get you get PJ 446 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 1: Hall into the mix, who arrived in training camp. You 447 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: know that d line is starting to come together a 448 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: little bit more. And however Anthony Weaver is playing JJ's 449 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: he's able to take advantage of his opportunities out there, 450 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: and sometimes JJ would be out there. I remember in 451 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: years past the first few weeks of the season he'd 452 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: be out there and he would be just his mere 453 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: presence caused offensive coordinators sort of work guys around him, 454 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: but his numbers didn't quite reflected in the stat sheet. 455 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: So it seems like this year, whatever Anthony Weaver's doing, 456 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: or however teams are playing against JJ, he's still able 457 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: to get to the quarterback. I hope that continues as 458 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: the season goes on for JJ. I love it when 459 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: JJ has a great season because I think the Texans 460 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: defense can't be good without you know, if if JJ 461 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: is good, the Texans defense can't help but be good 462 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: as well, you would think, especially if the offense is clicking. 463 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: I wonder too, how much more we're going to see 464 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: a Jacob Martin because he's really been limited in his snaps, 465 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: but when he's in there, you can tell. I mean, 466 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: he gets to the quarterback. Almost had act this week, 467 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: sort of forced. I think he forced Lamar Jackson into 468 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: that sack by a Menaho. So he looks like he's 469 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: been earning more play and time and will get more 470 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: play and time just by virtue of how he's performing 471 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: when he's out there. It's gonna be something that bears watching. 472 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: All right, well, I think the big storyline this week 473 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 1: obviously is going to be the brotherly family reunion between 474 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: the three Watts. But did you all know that's actually 475 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: not the first time that three brothers have played in 476 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: the same NFL game. I will tell you when the 477 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: last time that happened was, and it was not that 478 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: long ago. You might be surprised we got that. Plus 479 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: we preview the Pittsburgh Steelers and some big news around 480 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 1: the league. We talked about all those injuries, were there, 481 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 1: some familiar faces showing up in new places. That's all 482 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: coming up around the NFL. Texans All Access continues, don't 483 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: go anywhere.

JJ Watts speaks to 575 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 1: the media, and I just feel like when JJ speaks, 576 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: it's going to be all questions about TJ, about Derek, 577 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: about their mom and dad, about playing his brothers, a 578 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: little reminiscing down, you know, his childhood, which I always like, 579 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: I appreciate when JJ talks about his brothers because it's 580 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: always very, very funny. But before the break, guys, I 581 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: mentioned this is not the first time that three brothers 582 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: have played in the same game. You guys have want 583 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: to adventure any guesses the gronkowskis three three brothers. Three 584 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: I went with I went with the show Bills. But 585 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: there's a cousin and two brothers or two cousins and 586 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: a brother or something like that. I don't know. Well, 587 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: I was interviewing my counterpart at the Steelers today, Missy Matthews, 588 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: and she just sort of dropped this in and I 589 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: like it caught me by surprise that the Steelers actually 590 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: had a game like this last year with three brothers. 591 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: So last December when they played the Buffalo Bills, the 592 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: Bills and the Steelers had a trio of brothers, Tremaine Edmunds, 593 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: Terrell Edmunds, and Trey Edmunds. The Tremaine was a linebacker 594 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: who played for the Bills, Terrell was a safety, and 595 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: Trey as a running back for the Steelers. So the Steelers, Yeah, 596 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: and they all went to Virginia Tech. I'm pulling up 597 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: the story right now. This is a great story. Wow, 598 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: So in back to back years the Steelers have had 599 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: played games with three brothers in it. What are the odds? 600 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: And before that, you know, when's the last time this 601 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: has happened? Three brothers in the same game, Not since 602 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: nineteen twenty seven luth estimates and Joe Cobb and Bill Rooney. 603 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: I remember it, No, I don't. What was that game? Oh, 604 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: Joe Cobb really scooped down off sidelines. Yeah, you could 605 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: do your old timey reporter now Drew with the little 606 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: hat and the little notebook in the pen. The brothers 607 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: brother's aspect is so fascinat you got the watch you 608 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: just mentioned the Edmonds A. J. Moore His scwin brother CJ. 609 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: Plays for the lines. We were talking with Bells, his 610 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: big brother Daniel. They overlapped for about a year or 611 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: two in the NFL, each of had. You know, they 612 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: they've had long NFL careers. It's and I'm leaving some out, 613 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: like Tim Kelly's the offensive coordinator for the Texans. He 614 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: never played NFL football, but his brother Dennis is an 615 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: offensive lineman for the Titans right now. And I'm missing 616 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of Justin and Eric read Eric. That was 617 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: a lot that So whenever it seems like whenever brothers 618 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: are playing each other, that just sort of floats to 619 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: the surface as the natural storyline because both brothers get 620 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: asked about it, and you know, with Justin obviously he 621 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: was only his second year in the league. He gets 622 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: to play Eric, who's a veteran in the league. And 623 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: you know Eric has switched teams. You don't know when 624 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: they may play again. It's not like, you know, he's 625 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: under a long term contract. In fact, I think he's 626 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: a free agent right now. But he was with Carolina. 627 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: The Texans happened to be playing Carolina, and it was 628 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: just it was such a special moment for them. They 629 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: talked about it all week, and even at the game, 630 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: you could just you know Eric, who is so serious 631 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: all the time, in Justin who's just so smiling. You 632 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: see Eric kissing Justin on the cheek afterwards because it's 633 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: his little brother, and it was just it was just 634 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: really heartwarming to see. I can't wait to see AJ 635 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: and CJ more when the Lions face each other on 636 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving Day. And I think this the Watt trio we 637 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: saw last year Derek and JJ in the same game 638 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: when we were playing the Chargers out West. But TJ 639 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: and JJ have never played in the same game because 640 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: the last time the Steelers were at NRG Stadium, JJ 641 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: was It was a twenty seventeen It was the year 642 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: of the calamitous injuries for the Texans, right, and then 643 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: you know he came. TJ was on the sideline actually 644 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: last year for that Buffalo game. He was actually standing 645 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: not too far from me. He was doing an interview 646 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: with Michelle Taboya and they were talking about him getting 647 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: to watch jjst. I love all the trash talking on 648 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: social media. I love the tweets back and forth. You know, 649 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: it's so typical brother because JJ and TJ will stick 650 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: up for each other, Derek too, but then they'll bash 651 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: each other at the same time. You know, it's just 652 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: perfect brotherly razzing when appropriate and sticking up for the 653 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: other guy or promoting the other guy went appropriate. And 654 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: I absolutely love that. I mean, I just think it's 655 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: very healthy. It's a great example for other people. There 656 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: are billions of brothers all over the plays, all over 657 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: the planet who do the same kind of thing, except 658 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: they're not professional football players necessarily, other than the Edmunds 659 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: and other brothers we've mentioned. But to have three guys 660 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: like that and in the same game, it's so much fun. 661 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: I mean, TJ's excellent. I'm happy for Derek, you know, 662 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: because you know, Derek's one of these full back special teams, 663 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: but he's found a way to stay there and makes 664 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: in the league for the Chargers first and now for 665 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 1: the Steelers. Um. You know, so I'm the same team 666 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: every week. That's kind of funny. So it'll be fun. 667 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: That's the photo op. Next week we got to talk 668 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,720 Speaker 1: about the photo op. We gotta get with Dom Gapers, 669 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: Gary Kubiak, and Bill O'Brien. Do you think Bill O'Brien 670 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: is gonna pose like we gotta get that done. This 671 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: is next week's episode of All Access where we lobby. No, 672 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: he'll do it. I think he'll do it. True. Before 673 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: the game, Gary and Dom come over and you know, 674 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: Zach is there, Like, come on, guys, get together. You're 675 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 1: all three coaches and franchise history. They'll do it. Bill 676 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: will give a smile and then it'll be war. It'll 677 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: be odd. I feel like Mark, really, if you were 678 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: not if you were allowed on the field with the coaches, 679 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: why you would very much want to be a part 680 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: of I'd be so in that picture. Okay, well, photo 681 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: shop yourself maybe later, because I feel like this is 682 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: something that's of high, high importance to you. Because we've 683 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: heard about this picture several weeks in a row. Now 684 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: where them. Oh they're all gonna be wearing masks and stuff. 685 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna spread out. If you need spread out pulling down. Thanks, 686 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: then I can photoshop the whole thing, you know, because 687 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: it's funny. I have a photo of Jonathan Joseph and 688 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Glen at a practice when you know Glen's an 689 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: assistant coach with the Saints and saw on Monday of football. 690 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: But I have a photo of them, and then I 691 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,439 Speaker 1: was like, I gotta get in here. Somebody else hold 692 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 1: the phone to take this picture. So I got in 693 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: there with Jonathan and Aaron. Um, you know, because you 694 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: have two legends of Texans cornerback history right there. So 695 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: I want this photo badly. Gotta get it done somehow. 696 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,240 Speaker 1: One last thing on T J. Watt. Okay, the Texans 697 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: were they were basically in quarterback jail when Watt was drafted. 698 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: It was twenty seventeen. That's a year they moved up 699 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: to take to Shaun Watson. If they hadn't have needed 700 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 1: a quarterback in that draft, there's no way, no way 701 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: what would have gotten past the Texans. They definitely would 702 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: have taken him, really absolutely, I know because a year 703 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: before I heard from a few different prominent decision makers 704 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: in the organization how much they loved t J. Watt. 705 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: And it was before he had really had a breakout 706 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: season he had. He had been solid at Wisconsin before 707 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: that last year he was there, but they were in 708 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: love with him just basically what they saw measurables physically 709 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: and everything. And then he broke out. But the Steelers 710 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: were picking after the Texans that year in the draft. 711 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 1: T J. Watt wasn't the lasted two on my guarantee, 712 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter because you got the quarterback that 713 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: you wanted and and we're all very very happy with that. 714 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: All right, One more thing on t J Watt. His 715 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 1: numbers and Sundays win against Denver two and a half sacks, 716 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: two and a half TfL's four quarterback hits last year. 717 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,919 Speaker 1: Before JJ got injured in Week eight, they were neck 718 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: and neck in their sack or their TfL and well, 719 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,760 Speaker 1: I think JJ was quite ahead of the TfL numbers, 720 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: but otherwise they were pretty neck and neck with the 721 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 1: rest of their stats. So it'll be interesting to see 722 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: as the season goes on. Because JJ JJ select to 723 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 1: throw that he was a three time defensive AP Defensive 724 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: Player of the Year, so t's catching up to do. 725 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: And also JJ is much older than TJ. TJ's you know, 726 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 1: he's got some years to accomplish some of these goals. 727 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: I don't know this story, but I don't know why 728 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 1: Derek doesn't go by DJ. He's Derek John Watt. So 729 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 1: you have t J, JJ and DJ. But I guess 730 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: he I don't know, he wants his own at Denity here. 731 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. Did you not see the subway commercial 732 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: where Connie mixed up the subs between TJ and JJ 733 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: and she said, well, that's why we named you Derek. Oh, okay, 734 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: that's it J Watt. I mean, it's DJ Watt, so 735 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 1: that would be so cool. Come on, I don't know. 736 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just guessing that's that's why she's that punchline. 737 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: But she's like, she's a great actress. I love seeing 738 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 1: the commercials with the three of them. They do a 739 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 1: nice job. I mean, I don't think I wonder if 740 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,319 Speaker 1: it's not really much acting when she's yelling at them 741 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: in the vackseat fighting subs. Maybe like I feel like, well, 742 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: that's that's great acting, because that's exactly how I am, 743 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: but then I think, well, she's probably she's a previous 744 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: experience down that road may many times. Yeah, she knows 745 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: how that works. It's like the Peyton Manning Eli Manning 746 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: Sports Center commercial where they're touring with Archie Manning and 747 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: like they're kicking each other behind the tour and that 748 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: like he's looking back like snuck it off. The two 749 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: brothers are going at it, which is really more like 750 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: Peyton and Cooper right the way they're well, because Eli's 751 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: much younger, so it's like they didn't really have that 752 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: kind of relationship as much. But anyway, they still shot 753 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: plenty of commercials like that. Peyton and Eli were it. 754 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I saw them talking at the Pro Bowl 755 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: ones and they were just like discussing dinner and I 756 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: just I walked by it. I just thought, this is 757 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: so bizarre, you know, it's just so it was so real, 758 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: just real people. But of course they are, you know, 759 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: is that your Peyton or is that your eLife Peyton? 760 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 1: I was saying. I had a chance to interview TJ 761 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 1: at the Pro Bowl this year, and it was his 762 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: mannerisms were so much like JJ. Just the way he 763 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: talked and a few people even commented on the video, 764 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: They're like, if my eyes were closed, I would think 765 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: that was JJ talking. Just sounds so similar, brothers, brothers. 766 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: All right, when we'll come back, Let's go around the 767 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: league because some big news. Some quarterbacks of the Texans 768 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: up based in the past are taking up residence in 769 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: new cities, which is quite interesting. That's coming up in 770 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,760 Speaker 1: one final segment of Texans All Access don't go anywhere. 771 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: Texans All Access continues in able boks. How did Verizon 772 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: built the fastest five G in the world.

Got Drew A, got Mark, and 866 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna go round the NFL because I know we 867 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: were talking about this earlier. The just I like how 868 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: Drew phrase it. The calamity of the calamity of injuries 869 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:58,359 Speaker 1: in Week two out just astounding how many big name 870 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: players dropped in Week two and it just really alters 871 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 1: the course of so many teams. I think here we 872 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: had I don't know why, in Houston we had the 873 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 1: Chicago and Chicago Bears and the New York Giants. Just 874 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 1: in watching that game, I only saw the first half 875 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: and I saw Sequin Barkley, ye have to get he 876 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 1: was limping off the field. And then David Montgomery for 877 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 1: the Bears got injured like a few series later. I 878 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 1: think he came back into the game, but that was 879 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: just in one game. And then just hearing throughout the 880 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 1: day of all these big name players, Jimmy Garoppolo, Joey 881 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 1: Bosa just getting hurt on top of everything else, and 882 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: then you look at Denver. Yeah, I mean it's just 883 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 1: a crazy, crazy year. Drew Locke being app for a 884 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: while hurts them. Jeff Driscoll played okay against the Steelers. 885 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,720 Speaker 1: I mean they're on the road and they got reverse 886 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,879 Speaker 1: body clock and all that other stuff, and they still 887 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 1: hung in there against Pittsburgh. And Driscoll did throw one 888 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: pick in that game. I mean, I thought, yeah, when 889 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: those injuries were going down earlier in the day, I thought, 890 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, please don't let anything bad happen. You know, 891 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 1: for the Texans situation. You look around the division and 892 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 1: you know there's health at the most important spots for 893 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: all the teams. But it's just, you know, it's too bad. 894 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: One of those things. I mean, Andrea was saying, Andre 895 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 1: ware I was telling me he thought there'd be maybe 896 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: a little more injuries this year because of the lack 897 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: of the preseason and you know, no offseason program. But 898 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: who knows. I mean, I think that's sometimes you just 899 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: never know. It's a freaky thing. You know. Why do 900 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: some guys get hurt more than others. They put in 901 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,319 Speaker 1: the same amount of time, the same amount of work. 902 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: Maybe some guys have bad luck. It's sports, you know, 903 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: it just happens. So you know, you have to hope 904 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 1: that your team stays healthy. It'd be great if everybody 905 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: would just stay healthy, just go best against the best. 906 00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: You know. I know that I've kind of had a 907 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,439 Speaker 1: little fun with things over time, with people not people 908 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: getting hurt out their misfortune. But you know, I don't 909 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: I don't mind from a football perspective if the game 910 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 1: is less entertaining, if some star player or the opponent 911 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 1: is not available. You know, I feel for him, but like, 912 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: all right, you know this is just the week after exactly, 913 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,800 Speaker 1: take an extra week off. When twenty seventeen you suffered 914 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 1: through a season like that, you know, or twenty thirteen, 915 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: You're like, you know, we've had our We've had our 916 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:14,360 Speaker 1: share of bad things happening here. It's remarkable because the 917 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 1: last time the Texans beat the Steelers, it was twenty eleven. 918 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: It was week four. Well, that's that's a pretty with 919 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 1: everything we've just been talking about the last few minutes. 920 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 1: Think about it. He hadn't really seen Arian Foster that year. 921 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 1: He comes back in that game because bent Taated started 922 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: out the year with a couple hundred yard games. Arian 923 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 1: comes back. They give him them all thirty times. He 924 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: has one hundred and fifty some yards, scores the kind 925 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,839 Speaker 1: of game winner on that forty two yard or game 926 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,359 Speaker 1: sealer on that forty two yarder. But in that game 927 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 1: you'll lose Andre Johnson for a little bit with a 928 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,360 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. It looks like he got shot in the 929 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,839 Speaker 1: leg the way he went down, and Mario Williams had 930 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: two sacks in that game. Like a week or two later, 931 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: Mario was done for the year. You know, he had 932 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: the pectoral injury. So you know, that was a season 933 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 1: in twenty eleven coming off of the walk up. You 934 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: didn't have OTAs. Now, you did have a preseason, and 935 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 1: you did you did have training camp, but I mean 936 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:11,479 Speaker 1: free agency was like a day or two late July 937 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 1: boom and then they're out there. So it's kind of 938 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: interesting time that all together with what we've been talking about. 939 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: You're freaking me out a little bit. Okay, I never 940 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 1: thought of that twenty eleven no offseason program and all 941 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 1: the injuries the Texans suffered that year. The next man 942 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 1: up season, Mario out Week five. Oh my gosh. The 943 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: quarterback the quarterback situation at the end of the year, 944 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 1: with every quarterback who had ever played in the NFL 945 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 1: in one room hurt for the Houston Texans. I'm exaggerating, 946 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: but I don't want to see anything like that this year. 947 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: And I remember Andre Johnson he went down like that twice. 948 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: He went down like that against Pittsburgh and I think 949 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 1: Atlanta was maybe the other one. Yeah, the Falcons game, 950 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: because he didn't play against the Bengals in the division 951 00:48:55,120 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 1: clincher in Cincinnati in December. So you don't want to 952 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 1: see anything like that. I think the funny thing about 953 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 1: that year, and you know the next year will be 954 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: the tenth anniversary of that season, is they didn't start 955 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: out that great. That win over the Steelers was a 956 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: huge win. It was seventeen ten slug fest Roethlisberger. It 957 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: was great game, but low scoring game, but a great game. 958 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: But they were three and three. You know, it's like, 959 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,720 Speaker 1: when is this going to happen? Is this really gonna happen? 960 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: And then they won seven in a row and it 961 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 1: really changed history, of course, so I'll take a seven 962 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: game winning streak right now, thank you very much. Yeah, 963 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 1: they won that game that moved him to three and one, 964 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: but then they lost the next two and after that 965 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 1: is when they really took off. So yeah, it's it was. 966 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,239 Speaker 1: It was a memorable season for a lot of ways, 967 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 1: but that part of it doesn't get brought up too much. Yeah, 968 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 1: they've lost to the Raiders and that's probably where Mario 969 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 1: got hurt and the Ravens on the road, and that 970 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: was a game Antonio Smith picked up. I think he 971 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: picked up a couple of on sports from my conducts. Well, 972 00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 1: the Ninja on Occasia would pick up and I'm sportsman 973 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 1: conduct penalty. It just happened. But we love them. Well, 974 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,399 Speaker 1: you know the Pittsburgh game that always gets talked about 975 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: with some of the older the veteran a little older, 976 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: the Texans Ambassadors, the early early Steelers game up at Hinesfield, 977 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 1: those super low scoring game that was the only time 978 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,800 Speaker 1: the Texans ever won up there. Yeah, I love scoring. 979 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 1: It was just low off sorry, low yardage, so so 980 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: bizarre in that game. But if you talk to Seth 981 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 1: Payne or any of those that is there, one of 982 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 1: their all time favorite games at the defense, the game 983 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: on their back and one it all right. So I'm 984 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: going to write about that for the Daily Brew. This 985 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 1: so I call it. I got it, I got it, 986 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: I can have it. I was not here working, okay, 987 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: so watching it, but I was gonna say, okay, injury wise. 988 00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: You mentioned Drew Locke, So did you see who the 989 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: Broncos are looking to sign as one of their backup quarterbacks, 990 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: Blake bore Toles. Well, good for Blake. You know, it's 991 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: funny because sometime during camp I read a story about 992 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and that Blake Bortles was not on a team. 993 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, he's on the Rams last year as a backup. 994 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 1: I was thinking, Bortles doesn't have a job. That's strange 995 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: to me. I understand not having a starting job, but 996 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,440 Speaker 1: I thought Bortles should have a job backup. I think 997 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:25,200 Speaker 1: in the backup he's played enough games where he can 998 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 1: get in the room and work with the quarterbacks and 999 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:29,759 Speaker 1: have to come in and a pinch. At least he's 1000 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 1: seen NFL game action before. I mean, doesn't that make 1001 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: y'all feel old saying that? What? Just that? Like, we're 1002 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 1: talking about Blake Bortles being sort of long in the 1003 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 1: tooth now and has experienced Jack up fourteen. That's a 1004 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 1: long time ago now. I really it's funny you mentioned 1005 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: that room because I was watching Derek Carr play on 1006 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 1: then Have Football, and I'm thinking, you know, good for 1007 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,720 Speaker 1: Derek that he's still the starting quarterback for the Raiders 1008 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: and that they're off to a good start, because you know, 1009 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 1: it was a little iffy feeling. Is he really going 1010 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,399 Speaker 1: to be the guy for John Gruden last year? Right? 1011 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 1: And then this year, you know, Marcus Mariota, is he 1012 00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,360 Speaker 1: gonna do to Derek Carr what Ryan Tannehill did to 1013 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: Mariota and all that, and Derek's hanging in there and 1014 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 1: then some But he's a twenty fourteen guy. You know, 1015 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: we we all remember that combine. Back in the simpler 1016 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,439 Speaker 1: days of the combine, we could really like I could 1017 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: walk and talk with Teddy Bridgewater and get an interview. 1018 00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 1: I could sit Derek Carr down at our table to say, Derek, 1019 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 1: can you have to sit down? It was like, you know, 1020 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 1: I mean, and that it was already way beyond, you know, 1021 00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 1: the days the McClain talks about. We were in a 1022 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 1: hotel and we did grab guys in the lobby and 1023 00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 1: there was no media there, you know, So obviously it's 1024 00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: completely different. Now if you get near a player it's 1025 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,560 Speaker 1: you know, national security violation. So it was a different time. 1026 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 1: That twenty fourteen pre draft was special because you know, 1027 00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 1: you had Manzell, right, Yeah, Johnny that one with the Tech, 1028 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: with the Texans having the number one pick in that draft. 1029 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 1: I think that was a lot of fun to cover, 1030 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 1: just from our perspective because there were so many different characters. 1031 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 1: It was Johnny Manziel, he had his pro day, Clowney, 1032 00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: Blake Bortles. I mean, there were just so many names 1033 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: that were out there, and um, Zach Mettenberger was coming 1034 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: out that year, ob J there it was like they 1035 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 1: were all love Zach Mettenberger. Zach Mettenberger. Do you not repent? Yes? 1036 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 1: I love see that. I'm that guy. Give me Zachburger 1037 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 1: across that sideline, across that field. Everything well. Also, three 1038 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: NFL head coaches were fine for not wearing their masks 1039 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: on the slidelines, one hundred thousand dollars each. And the 1040 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 1: only reason why I bring this up is because I 1041 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 1: want to know, Mark, do you if you had to 1042 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,439 Speaker 1: wear a mask when you called the game, how would 1043 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: you do that? Because I understand why coaches have to 1044 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: pull the masks down to talk about Mike, but I 1045 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: think these were like flagrant, Like the mask off, everyone 1046 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:03,239 Speaker 1: got down. Everybody's got that amish beard look when they 1047 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: pulled the mask down below the chin. It's like that, 1048 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: like no mustache but a beard. Look. So I think 1049 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,839 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. Let the coaches not wear a mask. This 1050 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 1: is so stupid because the NBA, you know, they don't 1051 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,319 Speaker 1: require it. You know, D'Antoni was wearing one because he 1052 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 1: just said I want to set an example or whatever. 1053 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 1: But you know, you could argue that they need it 1054 00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 1: more than the NFL guys because they're outside for the 1055 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 1: most part, or in much more of an open air 1056 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 1: kind of environment. The NBA is not all right, good stuff, 1057 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 1: All right, guys, thank you so much.
