I don't know if PNG is considered local, 12 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: but I don't know that I can do it because 13 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: they knocked us out of the playoffs my last high 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: school fotball game and I still carry a grudge. So 15 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: good luck PNG, but I say it, I say it grudgingly. No, 16 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,319 Speaker 1: I'm kidding.

I believe. We've also 21 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: got Deepe City, who's gonna go behind enemy sidelines with 22 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 1: Joshua Brisco who knows the Chiefs inside and out. We 23 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: got Houston Methodist minutes. We're gonna hear Nick Casserio's scouting 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: report on the Chiefs, which is always fantastic stuff, while 25 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: Drew Dorty's final word with Chris Moore in addition to 26 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 1: the Jenga, and then Mark and I are going to 27 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: do a little quarterback Roulette prediction style. You'll find out 28 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: thirty two NFL teams who is set on their quarterback 29 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: going into twenty twenty three. That is gonna be some 30 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: fun stuff, my keys and also my predictions. Man. We 31 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: got all of that tonight right here in Texas All Access. 32 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: But we kick off every Friday show with the head 33 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: coach of your Houston Texas Lovey Smith, who dropped into 34 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: studio today, talk about this one with Mark Mark coach 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: before we get into the nitty gritty of football. It's homecoming. 36 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: So a lot of former Texans players, Texans legends as 37 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: we call them, are in the building, and what about 38 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: the effect they might have, if any, on the current 39 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: players participating in the game. I think, Mark, you know, 40 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: just a typical game. If you have family, It's all right, 41 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm at practice, you know, I'm playing. I'm doing my best. 42 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: It's a difference now when you have a family member 43 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: watching you, you want to really show him your best, 44 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: do your best. And when former players come back, as 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: they're like family members coming back, they haven't seen us 46 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: in a while, and we just want to show them, 47 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, our best effort as much as anything. So 48 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: that means an awful lot that pressure to do your 49 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: best in front of someone that's we're in the same uniform. 50 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: You're playing a super Bowl contender in the Chiefs. You 51 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: played one last week in the Cowboys, came oh so close. 52 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: Team played well for the most part. So what can 53 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: you take from that game even bring into this week, 54 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: the intensity and all of it as you come home. Well, 55 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: I think last week we're saying, you know where I 56 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: messes its coaches to the players, guys, we can do this. 57 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: They're a great team, all right, but we can do this. 58 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: We think we can match up well against him, and 59 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: we think we have a chance, we really have a 60 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: chance to win. I think seeing that that's what happened, 61 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: so I think they're you know, players may even believe 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: it even more. I think they believed it last week. 63 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: They definitely believe it last week. But I think there's 64 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: a sense of, hey, we can do this, and hopefully 65 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: we'll get a little bit we as coaches do a 66 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: little bit better job, and of course players make a 67 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: couple more plays coach. This probably applies to every team 68 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: you try to defend against, but with the Chiefs, how 69 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: much of it is trying to figure out what they 70 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: might try to do to you and counteract that the 71 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: game of chess. As you go into an offense like this, 72 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: I think it's like that against them, and everyone yes, 73 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: against an offense like that, But I've said that every 74 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: week of the season. You have a game plan too, Mark, 75 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: going into the game, this is what we do in 76 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: these situations. But then you get into it, now, this 77 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: is what we think they're going to do. Now, this 78 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: is what they're doing, and we have to be able 79 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: to address. That's why halftime adjustments really do matter, because 80 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: now you have a pretty good idea on exactly what 81 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: they are trying to do to you, and the same 82 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: thing with us. You know, we have a couple of 83 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: things that you know, could give a defense their defense 84 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: trouble that they have to adjust and see exactly what 85 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. You don't have Pierce, but everybody's got 86 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: to pull together. So how much does that sort of 87 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: inspire them, for lack of a better way of putting it, 88 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: that hey, they're gonna put out extra effort to try 89 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: to compensate, if you will. I think the running backs 90 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: we have, they've seen what we're expecting from the running 91 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: back position, and Damon pier Is said an example of 92 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: what we want in a tailback. But they've been around 93 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: the entire time. And Damon when he first got here, 94 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: he wanted an opportunity. He knew he could play ball. 95 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: I think our players we have here, you know, the 96 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: thread afford it we're going to address this week. Feel 97 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: in the same way, what a great opportunity. We're gonna 98 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: be committed to the run and they're gonna get opportunities 99 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: to do something. Coach, thanks a lot for joining us, 100 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: Best of luck, Thank you Mark. We'll get Mark back 101 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: in here to talk about our quarterback who let situation 102 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: a little later in the show, as in next segment, 103 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: how about that. But we've got to talk about this 104 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: injury report, the status report. I don't think I've ever 105 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: seen one quite quite like this that I can remember, 106 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: and I've been doing this. This is a year nine 107 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: that I've been doing Friday status report checks because this 108 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: one is gruesome. So let's start with the wide receivers. 109 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: Receivers one and two as you would look at them, 110 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: I guess statistically, Brandon Cooks, Nico Collins both out. Nico 111 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: deal with that foot, Brandon with the calf. Something tells 112 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: me that we may not see I don't know. Maybe 113 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: we see either one of them. I don't know throughout 114 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: the rest year. Maybe I shouldn't make any predictions on that, 115 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: but I'm feeling we won't see one of those guys 116 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: for the rest the year. But hopefully one of them 117 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: could get back deal with that foot issue. But both 118 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 1: of them are out. So top two receivers out, defensive 119 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: back Stephen Nelson foot, they're extinctly hamstring both out. So 120 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: starting wide receivers, starting cornerbacks out, that's four of twenty 121 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: two were keeping. We're doing a math here. Starting running 122 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: back Damian Pierce out ankle. How much has Damian meant 123 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: to this offense? So now you're talking two starting wide receivers, 124 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: starting running back, two starting corners out out out out 125 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: out out yikes, starting left guard Kennyan Green ankle out 126 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: and Taylor Stallworth, who was a I don't say backup. 127 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: He was probably the rotation against Dallas. Played played very 128 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: very well. I would think of the game or two 129 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: if Taylor continued that level of play, that dude would 130 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: be starting. He's out one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 131 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: seven players oh ut six starters and Taylor Stalworth. Oh boy, 132 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: Justin McCrae, who missed last week, who is the backup 133 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: left guard? He was a limited participant on Friday. He 134 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: is listed as questionable. So seven players are out. So 135 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: I don't think the Texans have to even put an 136 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: active inactive. I think everybody's just out. So like there's 137 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: your active inactive list. Nico Collins, Stephen Nelson, Damian Pierce, 138 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: Taylor Stalworth, Derek Stingley, Brandon Cooks, Kenyan Greene, all those 139 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: guys out. Now you are probably gonna have to make 140 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: some adjustments. Don't know if Justin McCray is going to play. 141 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: He was a DNP went Day, he was a d 142 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: NP Thursday, and then he was a limited participant on 143 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: Friday that hamstring. So if he's able to go, more 144 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: than likely he goes into left guard. If not, you 145 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: go to Jimmy Morrissey at left guard to start in 146 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: between Larry Tunsill and Paul Quisenberry. Scott Quisenberry, Gosa give 147 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: my Quisinbury's messed up, Scott Quisenberry. I've had all three 148 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: of them here, so that I think is one solution receiver. 149 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: We saw that already. We saw last week would be 150 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: Chris Moore, would be Philip Dorset. Chris Moore, Philip Dorset. 151 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: Then you're gonna have Mari Rodgers and Jalen camp Was. 152 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: I believe he was the fourth receiver last week, but 153 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: he got injured and so he was put on the 154 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: reserve injured practice squad list earlier this week. So there'll 155 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: be another receiver that jumps into the mix to go 156 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: along with more Doorset and Maria Rodgers. So who who's 157 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: that's gonna be, I don't know. Then you got the 158 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: running back situation where you've got Dare and you've got Rex, 159 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: so you've got to have a third back, So does 160 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: somebody get the call up from this Jared Oaks, who 161 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: came back to the practice squads week this week, does 162 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: he get the call up? Does somebody become the third 163 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: running back. It's a lot of decisions to be made 164 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: at this particular point. Defensively, I think we know Traymond 165 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: Smith will go in at one corner, and we know 166 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: Dez King, who has been playing for Derek Stingley, will 167 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: be at the other corner. I'm guessing they start then 168 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: that you have to reconfigure maybe your kick and punter 169 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: returns because of Treymond. So you've got a lot of 170 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: things that you gotta work out now. The good news 171 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: is Kurt Heinis's back, Larremy Tounson was back from illness, 172 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: Roy Lopez and Troy Harrison, they're all listen as being 173 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: ready to go on the chief side. I don't want 174 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: to say this is good news, but Chris Jones did 175 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: not participate on Friday because of an illness. He's listen 176 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: as questionable. Canarius Tony has been dealing with a hamstring 177 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: for a while. He's a limited participant all week. He's 178 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: listen as questionable. Those two are arguably the most dynamic players, 179 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: but Chiefs have on either side of the ball. So 180 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: we'll see if those two. If those two are out eventually, 181 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: there's just questionable. Again, it helps let just say that way, 182 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 1: it helps seven players out that is that's not good. 183 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: So the Texans are gonna have to really reach back 184 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: for their fastball. Figure out how the offensive line comes together. 185 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: Jimmy's gonna if Jimmy's got to be at guard. You know, 186 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: you got Austin deculous and Charlie heck available, but I 187 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: don't think either one of them could play guard. It 188 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: might mean that Titus has to slide over to guard 189 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: and then you move Charlie heck in. We'll see how 190 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: the Texans will decide to do that. But my goodness, 191 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna make for a really interesting afternoon to see 192 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: how the pieces all come together. Now we get back 193 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: Mark van muer is gonna join me and we do 194 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: a thirty two team look at the quarterback situation going 195 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: into twenty twenty three. Actually it's thirty one teams because 196 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: we didn't talk too much about the Texans, and Mark explains, 197 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: but is that team's quarterback on the roster for twenty 198 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: twenty three. Right now, we'll talk about that next right 199 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: here in Texas All Access. Welcome back to Friday issue 200 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: of Texas All Access. I am John Harris Football outside 201 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: of our reporter for your Houston Texas and Marfa Vandermer 202 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: stays with me to kickoff this segment. All right, Mark, 203 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about this and it hit me last 204 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: night as I was watching the Seahawks in the forty 205 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: nine ers. Oh yeah, are you ready for a little 206 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: bit of quarterback roulette? Quarterback roulette? Oh? You know, I 207 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: love this, I know, I know. That's why. That's why 208 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: I would ropp this up. Okay, let's rifle through the 209 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: NFL and figure out what teams are set with their 210 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: quarterbacks going into twenty twenty three, and what teams are 211 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: absolutely gonna find a quarterback in twenty twenty three, and 212 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: which ones are kind of on the which way you'd 213 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: go with that? Okay? Ready? All right? Buffalo Bills good? Good? Good, 214 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins good? I think so? Yeah, I think so too. 215 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: Now a narrative I think here. You know, I know 216 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: we're not going to deep dive into everybody's situation, into 217 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: everybody's business, but the narrative could change on him if 218 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: this does not conclude well, I agree, this could be like, look, 219 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: it's very different, but match Shop. At the end of 220 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: twenty twelve it was subtle that it wasn't going as 221 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: well as it did previously, right, and then in twenty 222 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: thirteen it really didn't go well. This could be a 223 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: mini version of that where it was going really well 224 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: early and then it could go horribly because they play 225 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,839 Speaker 1: in Buffalo Saturday night and then we went over the 226 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: schedule last night. It's not entirely friendly to them and 227 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: schedule schmedgel. You get to play well no matter who 228 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: you're facing. How did Dak Prescott look last week? I 229 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: know he had a good final drive, but other than that, 230 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: which was a big exception, I suppose because he did 231 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: pull out the game for them. But I would say 232 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: they're okay, Johnny, I'm gonna assume they're okay, go ahead, Patriots. 233 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: That's interesting, Mac Jones. I think, see this is another 234 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: one where narratives can change in the final four games. 235 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: What if they win three out of four here, they 236 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: go to the playoffs. Maybe they win a game and 237 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: upset somebody, Maybe they don't. Maybe they feel like They're okay, 238 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 1: because what are they gonna do, look other than the 239 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: Brady rumor going back there, which you can't rely on 240 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: that if you're though, and if he does go back there, 241 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna keep mac Jones for sure. So I'm gonna say, 242 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 1: because Brady's a wild card that we can't even figure 243 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: into the equation, I'm gonna say Patriots are okay. They 244 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: stick with mac Jones, but they do not stick with 245 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: that offensive staff. They can't know they're gonna do something, 246 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: and they can you know, you know who could end 247 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: up back there. You never know. Yeah, yeah, let's get 248 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: through this one. Nick gets dicey. Okay, the New York Jill. 249 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: This is so dicey. This is Zach Wilson will start 250 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: this weekend against Detroit Lions. Yes, and it's delicious drama. 251 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: It really. The NFL is so there's a soap opera 252 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: going on, and you know, Zach Wilson, all the off 253 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: field stuff and Rob Sala and we're keeping receipts and 254 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: you know, Mike playing well for them. Then all of 255 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: a sudden, we gotta go back to Zach Wilson. Oh 256 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: my gosh, how is this going to go? It could 257 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: go well for them. Look, he's capable of some good things, 258 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: and I think it could go well. But as far 259 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: as the future goes with the Jets, so this offseason, 260 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: I think that somebody on that roster is going to 261 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: remain the quarterback. Oh interest it's White or it's Wilson. 262 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: They're not gonna make a move here, Okay, all right, 263 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: I mean they might make a move, but it's one 264 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: of those guys here. I don't think they're gonna acquire 265 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: somebody new who's gonna be a starter for you here 266 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: the four down to stretch for the Jets. Okay, and 267 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson apparently Lions this weekend. That's tough at home 268 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: Thursday night home against the Jaguars. That's gotten tough. Tough 269 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: Sunday January first at Seattle, yikes, and then the closer 270 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: at Miami. But White could be back, right, he could 271 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: be back. Yeah, he could be back. If things go 272 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: badly for Zach Wilson this weekend, White could be back 273 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: for that Thursday game. I think the Jets can miss 274 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: the playoffs and still feel good about Mike White or 275 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson. I don't disagree with that. It's possible. Zach 276 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: Wilson plays pretty well, it's possible, and they still miss 277 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs. All of that's in play. So I think 278 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: it's one of those two guys next year for the Jets, 279 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: they're not going to get somebody new in there. Okay, 280 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: chiefs good, I think. So I think the Chargers Herbo. Yeah, Raiders, 281 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: you know what. I think, when all said and done, 282 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: they're going to keep him somehow he remains and they 283 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: determine it. And I like Derek. You know this, I 284 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: always root for Derek. I root for the Raiders to 285 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: lose and Derek to do well. I think Derek stays 286 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: in Vegas. All right, let's get more complicated, do it 287 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. That's super complicated. I think there's a 288 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: new coach and they keep Russell, but they have another 289 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: option on the roster. They draft somebody maybe third round 290 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: or something. Well, do they have any picks left? They 291 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: draft Buddy somewhere, they acquire some other option, a plan 292 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: B at quarterback. But somebody has to come in and 293 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: try to save Russell Wilson. That's a good run. I 294 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: actually think that's the way it's gonna go. I think 295 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: a new coach, new offensive scheme, come in, they dictate 296 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: to Russell, not let Russell dictate. They dictate to Russell, 297 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: and Russell can like it or not. What are there 298 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: other options? Great, they can't draft somebody Johnny right right, 299 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: So they have to go with the second, third round guy. 300 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's their best overall option, to 301 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: go with a second or third overall Russell. Well, what 302 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: if one of the guys we're talking like, what if 303 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: mac Jones suddenly becomes available, you bring him to Denver 304 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: to try to beat out Russell Wilson. If he can 305 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: he can, If he can he can, I don't know. 306 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: I'm just selling here obviously. I just think I think 307 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: that's the best option. Though. That what you started with, 308 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: and that is new coach, new offensive scheme. Leave Russell 309 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: one more year. It just takes the contract burn and 310 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: you hope, okay, this year was just all right, it 311 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: was Hackey. That was the issue. We're gonna sticking with 312 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: Russell one more year, get him a new scheme, and 313 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: then everything go it better. And then when it doesn't 314 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: after twenty twenty three, then you cut bait, coach says, 315 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: and that's gonna be the tricky thing. If they fire 316 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: hack it. What's gonna be the first question that George 317 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: Peyton and the Walton family ask, can you fix Russell Wilson? Sure, 318 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: we've been through that before because what was Gary Kubiak asked? 319 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: Can you fix David Coin? Right? Exactly so, But I 320 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: think that's that's where we're going with that. Okay, Oh boy, 321 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: let's handle the easy ones. In the a FC North 322 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: Bengals done. Brown's fine. Uh maybe, but they're invested. Put it. 323 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: They're invested. They bought a lot of bitcoin. They're hoping 324 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: it goes up. Yes, yes, they have a lot of bitcoin. 325 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens, Well, I think he's gone. I think he's 326 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: gone because he's not going to get the offer he 327 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: wants and they could franchise him. I think somehow he's gone. 328 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 1: Now I could change my mind on this, and look, 329 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna hold me accountable, are they? I think how 330 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: he goes somewhere? And the question then is where where 331 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: does he go? Okay, I'll give you one. I bet 332 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: we're thinking of the same team right now. I'll give 333 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: you one. The minds in the NFC East, minds in 334 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 1: the NFC South, Oh, Yeah. So mine is the NFC 335 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: East and it's the New York Football Giants. Oh you 336 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: think that that? Well, that would be interesting. That would 337 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: be interesting if anybody could make Hay with with Lamar's 338 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,479 Speaker 1: and Kafka could make Hay with him, and they're watching 339 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts slice up that division. Yeah, And Jalen's doing 340 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: it both ways, and I think when Lamar is healthy, 341 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: he could do it both ways too. Maybe not as 342 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: surgical as Jalen has been, but he's much more dynamic. 343 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: Are you with me that he's not there? I'm leaning 344 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 1: that way. Yeah, I'm leaning that way. And they couldn't 345 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 1: get it done in the summer. They're not gonna get 346 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: it done this soft season in all likelihood because Lamar's 347 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: hurt again, and this is two years in a row 348 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: where he's hurt, and again the narrative on them is 349 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: not yet they still have the edge in that division 350 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: over the Bengals. Now, a lot's gonna change in the 351 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 1: final four weeks, and I think they're gonna lose that edge, 352 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: but they're still gunning for a postseason appearance, if not 353 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: a whole lot, more like a division title. And I'm 354 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: definitely leading that way that he's not with the RAB 355 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: I'm not totally one hundred percent in. But man, if 356 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: I'm the Giants, I'm losing Barkley, well more than likely 357 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 1: losing Barkley. If they lose Barkley, they can't. I don't 358 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: think they can bring back Barkley and Lamar because the 359 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: money is going to be insane now they probably Barkley 360 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: is not going to get a ton of money because 361 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: I can't stay healthy. I don't think the performance level 362 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: is not it. Look, it's great when he's totally one 363 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: hundred percent, but then you get drop off and he 364 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: becomes the focal point. They need a good quarterback there. Yeah, right, okay, 365 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: but maybe Barkley comes back if man, can you imagine 366 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: Lamar and Sequan together? Good night? Steelers like I pick it? 367 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: So that's probably Okyeah. They're fine. All right, Let's finish 368 00:19:54,600 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 1: up the FC here the Tennessee tight Tens. I look 369 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: the Tannehill number. We went over it last night. It's complicated. 370 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: It's complicated. I think that. Look, hold on, let's handle 371 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: the easy one. Jaguars they're fine, okay, all right, got 372 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: Jaggars are the way? Go back to Titans. Sorry, are 373 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: we gonna do us? I will leave us out of 374 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: my children out of this conversation. I think we know 375 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: where it leans. I'm talking about your kids, not my kids. Right. 376 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: As far as the Titans go, all right, the Colts, yes, 377 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: obviously they a quarterback. Yes, that's and the Titans, I'm 378 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 1: thinking it's time. It's time they're gonna look at it 379 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: and say we got to do something. But Johnny, he's 380 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: not playing that badly. He's not the reason for this. No, 381 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: you're exactly right, not so maybe not the reason for this. Yeah, 382 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: that defense when you watched who was playing for that 383 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 1: defense the other day, you kind of got it because 384 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: Bayer was playing and Simmons is playing. But they worthout 385 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: Zach Cunningham and David longt linebacker. I'm not saying he's perfect, 386 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: but look, we've been through this. Look around, look around, 387 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: Like they say in Hamilton, there's not a lot out 388 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: there for you, right, So what are you going to 389 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: do about it? Well, this number is eighteen million for 390 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, I might bite the bullet and just 391 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: go with it. Yeah, you'll just go with it one 392 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: more year and figure you know what would actually behoove 393 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: the Titans I can't believe I'm about to say this. 394 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: It would actually behoove the Titans to lose the last 395 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: few games, get bumped out of the playoff spot, and 396 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: end up in the top ten of this draft. Yeah, 397 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: they're not gonna do that. I know they're not going 398 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: to do that. That is so we're not going to 399 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: do that. But that would put them in position to 400 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: go get or make a decision on a quarterback of 401 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: Will Levis, Anthony Richardson, etc. Or put them close enough 402 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: that they could then go from pick twelve thirteen up 403 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: to five if somebody happened to fall. They're in a 404 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: bad spot. They are still favored by a launch shot 405 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: or by by far to win this division absolutely and 406 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: host a playoff game. But are they going to be 407 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: able to win the playoff game? I think Rabel can 408 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: be sneaky here and win a playoff game against just 409 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: about anybody. I know, I can lose to just about anybody, 410 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: and he can win it with Ryan Tannehill as this 411 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 1: quarter Yeah he can't. They're they're gonna stick with Tannehill 412 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: because you think about the guys who might be available. 413 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: Jimmy ge to Tennessee. No, it's not gonna work. It's 414 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: not gonna work that way. Besides, is Jimmy Garoppolo is 415 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: better than Ryan Tannehill? Yeah, I think we all agree. 416 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 1: But has he had a lot better than Ryan Tannehill? 417 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. And Jimmy needs the running game. Jimmy's 418 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: not going to carry the team by himself. No, you know, 419 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: very few people on planet Earth can do that. But 420 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: if he's got a healthy Derrick Henry, yeah, that would 421 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: be good for them. I think Jimmy ceilings about the same, 422 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: make the same mistakes from Tannehill made. I think Tannehill 423 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: and Garoppolo are the same. They're the same box of chocolates, 424 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 1: same thing. Yeah, but I think jim know what you're 425 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: gonna get, but in the same exact way. I didn't 426 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: want to word this this way when you went with 427 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: the chocolate analogy and the eating and everything. But but 428 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: I think Jimmy's a higher quality of chocolate. Yeah, maybe 429 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: in that box. All Right's get to the NFC here, Okay, 430 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: Eagles good, Yeah, they're fine, Cowboys good fine. We know 431 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: the Giants are gonna be looking for one because Daniel 432 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: Jones is they didn't They're not gonna re up with 433 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: him there. He's gonna be a backup somewhere. You know what. 434 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: He's the kind of guy will go to Denver and 435 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: compete with Russell Wilson and try to win that job. 436 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 1: Let's get to well, it's not really complicated. Washington manager 437 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: to play him much better football. Yeah, this is what 438 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke. We're not ready to say because they just 439 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: they traded for Carson Wentz. It wasn't a ton, but 440 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: they traded for him. They're not gonna trade for somebody again. 441 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: They have to hope that Heineke plays well down the 442 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: stretch and they draft a guy somewhere and he compets 443 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: with them. But if Heineke comes out ahead in a 444 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: postseason situation, they win a game with him, my gosh, 445 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,239 Speaker 1: because they're not gonna win that division, but they can 446 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: make the playoffs. They're not gonna win on the road 447 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: with Heineke. I love Heineke, but they're not gonna win them. Okay, 448 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: give me, let me give you a scenario. I don't 449 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: think they could go. Making the playoffs might be enough 450 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: to give Heineken the job going into next year, but 451 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: it's got to have competition. Wait. Wait, wait, I'll give 452 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: you a scenario. I'll give you a scenario. Because team 453 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: number five is going to be the runner up in 454 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: the East, right, that team will go to Tampa Bay 455 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: more than likely. Oh, the third team more than likely 456 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: will be the Minnesota Vikings. You think Heineke can't go 457 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: to Minnesota and beat the Vikings in the first round 458 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: of the playoffs. I think he sure. I sure think 459 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: he can't. Because playoff cousins is like nighttime cousins. Yes, 460 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: unless you're in New Orleans with Kyle Rudolph. Okay, So 461 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: we're a waiting to see on the Commanders. Yeah, I'm 462 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: waiting to see them. Okay, alright, I find them, find them. 463 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: I stick with Heineke. I stick with Heineke, and I 464 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: ride that horse until she bucks me. Sure I do that? 465 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you? Because guess what, twenty twenty four quarterback 466 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: class is pretty darn good. Okay, uh NFC West. Now 467 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: it gets interesting, very all four teams forty nine ers, 468 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 1: what do they do well in twenty twenty three? It's 469 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: one of those two guys, that's all. They have them 470 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: in the house, right, they don't have to. It's either 471 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: Trey Lance or Brock Purdy, right, they got the guys 472 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 1: in the building and they'll just have to work it out. 473 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: There's no way there's an acquisition. They invested way too 474 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: much in Lance. They're gonna let Garoppolo walk, of course, 475 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: and they're gonna figure it out between Purdy and Trey Lance. 476 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: And again narratives changed because Perdie won again on Thursday night. 477 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: So what do you do from there? Purdy down the stretch? 478 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: Does he look great? Does he falter? Who knows? You 479 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: did invest a lot in Lance. You've really never seen 480 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: him play in a consistent basis, so you really don't know. 481 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: But I know this Purdie looks pretty good. Yeah, I 482 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: mean he there was a play last night where he 483 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: fake to the left, fake to the right of the 484 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: middle to Kittle for a touchdown, and I thought, you know, 485 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: it's it looks easy like the good ones make it 486 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: look easy. But you got to have your head on 487 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: a swivel because you know it was wasn't happening there 488 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: pass rush. So they were somehow able to keep his 489 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: body protected and lean while he made those fancy moves 490 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 1: and threw to Kittle over the middle, and they had 491 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: the Seahawks defender's head spinning on that one. You know 492 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: he's play yours truly. I got it. How about this? 493 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: I got it from Auburn nineteen ninety four, who ran 494 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: at Auburn ran that play against Florida and they would 495 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: fake a screen to the left. All the lineman would 496 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: go out to the left, the other half would go 497 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: out to the right, and the tight end would just wait, wait, wait. 498 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: I used to call it tight end delay, and the 499 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: tight end would just wait, wait, wait until last second. 500 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 1: All the floor gators are right. He was waiting. He'd wait, 501 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: but he would pump. He wouldn't. I don't know if 502 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: he'd pumped, but he pumped one side. He pumped one side, 503 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: look at the other, and then bang the tight mark. 504 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: They ran it three times and he was open every time, 505 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: and one time in the fourth quarter went for a touchdown. 506 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm using that play. So I'm coaching 507 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: junior high football and I'm like, I'm putting this thing in. 508 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: And of course junior high football isn't that long. So 509 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: I'd gone to see the Auburn Florida game and I'm like, 510 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: I love that play. I'm gonna run this, I said, guys, here, 511 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: I want to run this, but I want to run 512 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: it with a tight end. I want to run it 513 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: with one of my receivers. So we were always like 514 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: two tight ends a win because that's what we did 515 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: in high school. My offense evolved from that, and so 516 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 1: we did. We ran it. We ran it seven times 517 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: that last game of the year, one of them went 518 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: for a touchdown and finally, but the seventh time they 519 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 1: caught on it was incomplete, but it was just they 520 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: all my lineman just took off like it was a screen. 521 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: And I just told Brad, Brad Dutter. I was like, Brad, 522 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: you just wait, you wait, you wait, and turn around 523 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: and guess who threw him those seven times. Blake Jones. 524 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: Blake Jones, fake it, fake it and dump it. And 525 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: it was why I mean, mark the Sea's part, and 526 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened last night. I just love the 527 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: fact that that play is almost thirty years after I 528 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: first saw it and everybody's talking about him, like, dude, 529 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: I saw Terry Bowden run that play almost thirty years 530 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: ago in a different form, But now it's repackaged and 531 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: it's sold to a newer generation and they're like, that's awesome. Well, yeah, yeah, 532 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: thirty years ago is awesome too. I gotta play for 533 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 1: you out of the Emery and Henry. Are you ready 534 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: for this? Okay? And this will work on the radio, folks. 535 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 1: Everyone knows the Emory and Henry is when the linemen 536 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: are out, the tackles are out, so it looks weird. 537 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: Then they usually come into the middle. But keep them 538 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: out there because we saw a play run but Pierce 539 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: went right up the middle. I'm thinking, just you gotta 540 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: go to the one side or the other. So here's 541 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: what you do. You play fake to the back because 542 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: Pierce isn't playing, and then you whip around and you 543 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: throw to the other side a receiver slance and that'll 544 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: be so open. It'll be open. It'll be the Red 545 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: Sea in that gigantic gap. It'll probably go for like 546 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: seven yards, but it'll be nice. It'll be a good 547 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: seven yards. John yards are good. Okay, let's continue with 548 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: the NC West because we know it's Purty or Lance 549 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers. The Seahawks they stick in 550 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: with Gino. Yes, okay, Cardinals. Seahawks might bring in another option, 551 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: but it'll be Daniel Jones or somebody like I think 552 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: Gino's done enough, even though the last few games not 553 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: gone well, He's done enough. Kyler, Murray and the Cardinals 554 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: all right, So he's hurt and he's not going to 555 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: be ready for opening Day. You would think he might be, 556 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,959 Speaker 1: but he might not be. Is cult under contract. They 557 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: got to decide whoever the new coach is gonna because 558 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's not Cliff, but it might be who knows. Hey, 559 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: what if they get hot here, They're not gonna get hot. 560 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: They're not gonna get hot. Let's assume if Cliff is 561 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: not there, Let's just go like this. If Cliff is 562 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: not there, Steve comes already on a leave of absence. 563 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're gonna do at the general 564 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: manager's spot. Cliff isn't there. It depends on who the 565 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: new coach wants it to be. While Kyler is getting back. 566 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,719 Speaker 1: Because the new coach has to commit to Kyler they 567 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: did as an organization. The new coach has to say, 568 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: that's my guy. Of course, it's your guy. You just 569 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: committed a big contract to him, So you got to 570 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: figure out how to make that work and get a 571 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: stop gap. You have to find the next Huntley from Baltimore, 572 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: that kind of guy who can hold it down in 573 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: whatever kind of offense. Who want to run while Murray's 574 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: on the mend cooy one more year in his contract. Okay, well, 575 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: maybe they stick with him. Maybe they don't, though, maybe 576 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: they want somebody's a lot more like Kyler Murray. I 577 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: don't know whoever the coach is gonna be, that's gonna 578 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: be his that change everything, you know. Another question is 579 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: if Cliff isn't there, what happens to Cliff? Where does 580 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: he go oc in the NFL? He's not gonna get 581 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: another head coaching job in this league right now, so 582 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: he could cleanse himself as an offensive coordinator somewhere and 583 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: get another shot later. Tell you where he might go 584 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: college La Rams he mcvery close. Yeah, and they're losing 585 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: Liam Khane. Yeah. Cohen's going back to Kentucky and so 586 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: he'll always find a home there. Yeah, he got a 587 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: home with the Shanahan Tree. Can be a different can 588 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: be a difference I don't know, But maybe he doesn't 589 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: need to be a difference maker. Maybe he can just 590 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: kind of ride the McVeigh coat tails. And maybe McVeigh 591 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: wants it, wants to hear a different Maybe he wants 592 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: Cliff to give him a different side of life. Yeah, 593 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. I just I just 594 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: bring it up because he just strikes He strikes me 595 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: as an l a kind of cool kind of guy. 596 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: It was just kind of Cliff. But yeah, either way, 597 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: Rams sticking with Stafford. I would imagine if he's healthy. Okay, Well, 598 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,479 Speaker 1: this is also interesting because Baker Mayfield happens to reside 599 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: there at the moment. So what do you do with Baker? 600 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: I think a lot of it has to do with 601 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: how you do down the stretch with Baker, Johnny, what 602 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: if they win? What if they go two and two 603 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: in the last four with Baker? That means he went 604 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 1: through it looks good in the four. Man, Wow, they 605 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: have a decision. Do they have a decision to make? 606 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. Can they trade Stafford? Stafford's hurt? Is 607 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: he gonna be hurt again? They have to decide is 608 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: Baker going to be a backup? Is that really the 609 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: way you want to operate? You know, they did it 610 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: on a short term basis, But that was a magical 611 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: night of NFL football watching Baker doing that, And I'm 612 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: here to watch. You know, we're just talking about the 613 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: drama of this league and everything. I'm here to see 614 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,959 Speaker 1: what happens, you know. I'm glad they're Saturday football this weekend. 615 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: This is oh yeah, awesome NFL games. It's yea, So Rams, 616 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they got the guy in the building. Yeah, 617 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: there's not a new quarterback coming in, but if there's 618 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: somebody going out, here's what else could happen. Stafford comes 619 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: back healthy. We want to go back to Stafford. Baker's 620 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: a young man though in this league, yea, and Baker 621 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: is all of a sudden tradeable. They can get them 622 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: fin picks back, some of them. He can't get a 623 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: one for Baker, but maybe he can get a three 624 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: or a two or something. I don't know, New York 625 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: Football Giants. I keep telling you, Baker, this is the 626 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: best thing that ever happened to him going to the Rams. Now, 627 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: if he can just continue this for last four games, wow, Okay, 628 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: NC North Vikings, good Lions. They're fine. I think they're five. 629 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: Goff is playing at a high level the Bears. I'm 630 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: telling you, Goff is playing so well right now that 631 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: McVeigh is looking saying you know, yeah exactly. I mean, 632 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: they want a super Bowl, so they're never going to 633 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: regret that. But mcveay's gotta be thinking I wasn't getting 634 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: that at the end. Adam J God, I give up 635 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: on him too early. Maybe he's thinking that that might 636 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: make him keep Baker Mayfield, Um bears good. Yeah, they're 637 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: gonna ride that wave. But hackers, they've all right, here's 638 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: here's the question. What year is love He's like in 639 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: his tenth year. He's his third year right now, all right, 640 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: so he's got one more year and then the fifth. 641 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: Oh so they got it, he's Oh so they got 642 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: to make a decision on year five for him? Right Well, 643 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this, they have he's gonna ask for 644 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: a trade if Roger stays. So either way, they have 645 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: their twenty twenty three starter in the building. They're not 646 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: getting a new quarterback in there. All right. There you go. 647 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: NFC South, who do any of these teams stay with 648 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: their quarterbacks? Because we don't know about the Buccaneer. We 649 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: have no Brady and Buccaneers Panthers, they're not I don't 650 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: think they're gonna stick with Sam Donald and PJ. Walker 651 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: going forward. Now, the Falcons Desmond Ritter and then Marcus 652 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: Mariotta had a knee injury and stopped playing or whatever 653 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: an Arcas has done there, and the Saints with Andy Dalton, 654 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: like all four of those could be looking for a quarterback. Well, 655 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: Jamis is still there technically yeah, or theoretically I should 656 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: say yes, but then they won't go to him. Hurt mrs. 657 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: Go on to that division, somebody in that division. Look, 658 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,959 Speaker 1: you have two teams minimum in that division going for Watson, right, 659 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: you know we're at I just said it. You know 660 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 1: where he would be interesting is Atlanta? Lamar in Atlanta, 661 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: it would be yes, that would be epic stuff. That 662 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: really would be just as far as the whole value 663 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: of it all. Yeah, I don't like to fit in 664 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: New Orleans for some reason. Panthers. I just don't think 665 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: you could think Carolina. Does New Orleans stick with Dennis Allen? 666 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: That's another question. You know, he hasn't had a good 667 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: quarterback situation to start out his second stint as a 668 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: head coach. But but has he been resisted to go 669 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: to Winston or has Winston not been healthy? Does he 670 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: want to go to Winston? Has he just been saddled 671 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: with that, Does Sean Payton go back? If Peyton goes back, 672 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: there's another quarterback back there, I would imagine, Yeah, yeah, 673 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 1: But you're right. I think that division has the potential 674 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: to have new quarterbacks in every spot. Okay, So so 675 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: we discussed that are starters right now that won't be 676 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: uh next year, or I shouldn't say that are on 677 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: shaky ground. I want you to find the one that 678 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: you would put with Sean Payton going back to the 679 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,320 Speaker 1: Saints and make them the Saints. Okay, Diamond and the 680 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: rough Sean Um Russell Wilson. I just don't think they 681 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: could do anything contractually, Um Lamar, Yes, Tannehill, Matt Ryan, 682 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: I don't Heinekey Daniel Jones. Maybe it's possible that Peyton 683 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: sees something in Daniel Jones, and you know, I could 684 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: give him a tweak here and a tweak there. The 685 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 1: loser of Lance v. Purdy out in San Francisco. Oh, 686 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: now that gets interesting. One of those two guys with 687 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: Sean Payton New Orleans could get really fine. Right. Let 688 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: me put it this way. If if Lance is the 689 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: guy pretty staying all right, Pretty's gonna be the backup. 690 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere. They're not gonna mess with that. 691 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: They would be crazy to trade Purdy at this point 692 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: because if Platy wins a championship, he's Tom Brady if yeah, 693 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 1: you keep him forever, exactly right. But let's say he doesn't. 694 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: But he looks pretty good, right right, But we want 695 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 1: to go back to Lance because we think he's more talented. 696 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 1: You're not gonna let go Purty at that point either, 697 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: because Lance is gonna get hurt of Payton takes the 698 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: job in New Orleans. He calls up and says, I'll 699 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: give you a two this year to two next year. 700 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: They're not doing it. I don't see them do it 701 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 1: no way. You do not let Purty walk out of 702 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: your building. And I know that a lot can change 703 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: in the next four weeks. I'm going to be I'm 704 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 1: with you on that because you just don't know what 705 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 1: you're getting right, Trade Lance after the in you just 706 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: you just don't. Hayton's just gonna have to pick from 707 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: another pile. It's not gonna be the Purty Lance. Look now, 708 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: Jordan love with Sean Payton in New Orleans. If he 709 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: if he loves him, Yeah, he could make a deal 710 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,320 Speaker 1: for him. If Rogers stays Green Bay, Yeah, and that 711 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: could be fun. That could be his guy. That could be. 712 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: But I have my doubts about Jordan Love. I mean 713 00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: I think we all do, because we haven't seen him 714 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: on a system basis. And here's the problem is, once 715 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 1: he finally starts, he's gonna be his fourth year and 716 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 1: hasn't started but like two or three times in his career, 717 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 1: and you still don't know what you have. It's funny 718 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 1: because I always look for ways to make it work, 719 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: and everyone always points out how long Rogers sat behind 720 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: far I get that, but at the same liar, Well, 721 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: it isn't outlier, but it's also, you know, evidence that 722 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: it could work, and I get pointing that out. But 723 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: in all likelihood it doesn't work. Yeah, it definitely doesn't work. 724 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: What does work? You and I? That was good, Mark, 725 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: absolutely great time, Thank you very much, Thank you, Johnny. 726 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 1: What did the keys to win? Or the chiefs? Glad yass? 727 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: Those are next right here in Texas all access. In 728 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: the words of the ever famous Matthew McConaughey, alright, alright, alright, 729 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: let's go. Well, I don't know if he puts it, 730 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: let's go in there, but I'm saying it, let's go. 731 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,360 Speaker 1: And who am I? Well, I'm John Harris Football on 732 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: a side reported, your host for Texas All Access. On 733 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: this Friday evening, it's time for my keys to the game. 734 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: Each every Friday I do this. It was so much 735 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: going on. We gotta buzz through the keys man. We 736 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: gotta go, We gotta go, go, go to get through 737 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: the end of this first hour. So let's do it. 738 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: Talking about stopping the Chiefs offense, they have one hundred 739 00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: fifteen yards on the ground per game, that's eighteenth in 740 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,879 Speaker 1: the NFL. Passing yards not unexpectedly, three hundred and nine 741 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 1: yards per game that's first in the league, but also 742 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: first in total offense four and twenty four yards per game. 743 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: They have also turned the ball over nineteen times now 744 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 1: they've only taken the ball away. It's fourteen the minus 745 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: five tournament markets. So they will give it away. I e. 746 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: Last week against the Broncos. The only reason they gave 747 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: us close because Patrick Mahomes kept throwing interceptions, three of 748 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: them to be exact. So let's stop this team now. 749 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: The first key is what I call Chinese fingerlock. And 750 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: if you know what a Chinese fingerlock is you know, 751 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: you have to sort of think opposite. It seems odd, right, 752 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: you put your fingers in the end and then when 753 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: you pull, thinking well, that's what you do, right, you 754 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: pull to get your fingers out the titans. So you 755 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 1: have to think opposite. You have to push in and 756 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: twist your fingers come uneasily well stopping Patrick Mahomes, this 757 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: might sound odd, sort of like a Chinese fingerlock. You 758 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 1: think opposite. Patrick Mahomes loves to get inside edge rusher 759 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: who has rushed up field and then get out to 760 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: the right, in particular because his right hand and so 761 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: he likes to dart up and then out. In fact, 762 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 1: sometimes he looks for that escape plane. My thought is 763 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: let him do it, however, plan for it, Trap him 764 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: into it, invite him to do it. Have your defensive 765 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 1: ants keep rushing high side, just keep going beyond the 766 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: right tackle there Andrew Wiley, just keep going high and 767 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: then he'll keep darting in and out. Well, play your 768 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: defense in a little bit of a trap. Invite him 769 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 1: in as soon as he drops, and you got that 770 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: rush come up field. Send a linebacker right now to 771 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: be right where he's gonna be you know where he's 772 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 1: gonna go. Trap him, just like a Chinese fingerlock. You 773 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: would think, wait, that's what he wants to do. But 774 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: use it to your advantage. That's what Chinese fingerlock does it. 775 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: Use it to his advantage because people are like, no, 776 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: you gotta pull out, you gotta pull it out. You 777 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,919 Speaker 1: gotta no, no, no, you gotta think opposite. You gotta 778 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 1: push in, twist and go. So you gotta think opposite, 779 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: think opposite of what he can do. He loves to 780 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: get out. Would invite him to do it, but then 781 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,959 Speaker 1: trap him in it. Keep him on outside of the field. 782 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 1: Don't let him, you know, use the whole field now, 783 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: he's only using a half field when he gets out there. 784 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: Trap him, Send a linebacker, spy him. Whatever he does. 785 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 1: Whenever he starts to go out through the right, go 786 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 1: send somebody after him, and then use the sideline as 787 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: your friend. Okay, Travis Kelson, good gosh. In five wins 788 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: over the Texans, he has averaged some point six receptions 789 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: for one hundred three yards and a touchdown. In two 790 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs losses to the Texans, four and a half receptions, 791 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 1: forty yrs, no touchdowns. It's that simple. Whatever you have 792 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: to do to take away eighty seven. And this is 793 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 1: what worries me, and the Texans could not take away 794 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz last week. I think they're gonna struggle with 795 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. That worries me. But just keep it in check. 796 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: You keep it in check. Got a chance, and where 797 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: can they win? The Texans have proven that they can 798 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: rush the quarterback. There's no doubt. Those guys have got 799 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: to get to Mahomes quickly and they got to force 800 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: him into areas. Now maybe he likes, but then they've 801 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,479 Speaker 1: got to finish those finished the deal when he gets 802 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: out there. Chiefs defense sixty the NFL against the rush 803 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: one hundred six yards per game. They're improved. It gets 804 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: the past two hundred and thirty six yards per game. 805 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: They're twenty second total offense or eighteenth in the league. 806 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: They've only generated fourteen turnovers, making him minus five tournament margin. 807 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: Chris Jones I mentioned is a massive key. He is 808 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: ill miss practice today? Does he miss the trip, Does 809 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 1: he miss the game? Oh boy, if he's not in 810 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,439 Speaker 1: this game, it's already tough enough going against the Chiefs front. 811 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: But Jones when he goes inside, and that's where I 812 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: would expect him be is gonna be a nightmare. So 813 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: if Chris Jones wants to sit this one out, that's fine. 814 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 1: He's questionable going into this game. If he plays, he's 815 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 1: gonna go against the guards up front, no doubt, no doubt. 816 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: He won't rush from the outside at one time. They'll 817 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: rush him the inside and he'll get those one on 818 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:20,399 Speaker 1: ones in the guard. Nick Bolton received high praise from 819 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: Nickissario this week. I mean high praise and deservedly so. 820 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: That guy is a house of fire. And last week 821 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: Laton vander esh wasn't blocked at all. He had fourteen tackles, boltons, 822 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 1: not blocked at all. He'll go get twenty and the 823 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,359 Speaker 1: secondary from the Chiefs. They're all rookies. Is you heard 824 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: Nick say earlier? They're all rookies. They drafted four guys 825 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 1: last year, four and secondary. Three of them are making 826 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: big plays, but you gotta tack them, go get them all. Right, 827 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 1: Let's go behind enemy sidelines next, and a little Drew's 828 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 1: dozen with Chris Moore right here in Texas Access.

He covers the Chiefs in Kansas City for 849 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 1: Sports Radio eight ten. He's also the host of the 850 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: post game show and does the midday show there as well. 851 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 1: I've chat with Joshua many times over the years as 852 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 1: these two teams have faced each other. Joshua, how's it 853 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: going today? It's going great. I was really glad to 854 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 1: hear from you this week, because, yeah, this has sort 855 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: of become a little tradition. I don't know if the 856 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 1: Chiefs and Texans are necessarily rivals. They share a team 857 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: name I suppose from Kansas City's past, but always going 858 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: to talk to you to look forward to one of 859 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: these games, absolutely, all right, So Chiefs are ten and three. 860 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: If they win here on Sunday, they lock up the 861 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 1: AFC West. Is it just a foregone conclusion that the 862 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: Chiefs make the playoffs this year? Or is there a 863 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,839 Speaker 1: little bit of excitement when the Chiefs do eventually win 864 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,359 Speaker 1: the division about how much those other teams have really 865 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: invested in the off season and yet the Chiefs have 866 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: just come out firing pretty much on in every statistical 867 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: category on offense. Yeah, I mean, it's a good question 868 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 1: because it is so multifaceinting. Whenever it feels like they're 869 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: winning their fiftieth consecutive AFC West, it can get easy. 870 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: It takes out, for granted, because it is sort of 871 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: the default here, but that wasn't supposed to be the 872 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 1: case this season where the Chiefs really did retool, the 873 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 1: rest of the AFC West really loaded up, and the 874 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: Chiefs are in all likelihood you're going to clinch this 875 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 1: thing before Christmas. Nonetheless, so it has been a very 876 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: unique season following all of the hectic stuff that happened 877 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 1: this offseason in the AFC West. All Right, so they 878 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 1: lose Tyreek Hill, but yet that hasn't slowed Patrick Mahomes 879 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 1: down one bit. He's already thrown thirty three touchdowns, He's 880 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: eclipsed four thousand passing yards. How does his performance this 881 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 1: season compared to the other seasons that you've covered Mahomes? 882 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: In some ways, it's the most impressive year for him, 883 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 1: specifically because of all the retooling, the weapon rechanging and 884 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill no longer being here. And in other ways 885 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 1: it's been kind of a frustrating one. Like in this 886 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: game against the Broncos last week, he made three mistakes 887 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: on three interceptions that are pretty uncharacteristic for him. It's 888 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 1: not like he's been some kind of turnover machine that 889 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:55,320 Speaker 1: Broncos game is certainly the outlier, but his ability to 890 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: take this offense, and with a huge new cast of 891 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 1: pass catchers, like you've said, they're just chugging along being 892 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: as productive, if not even more productive than ever. So 893 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: it's been a little bit disjointed at times, especially as 894 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 1: those pass catchers have dealt with some injuries this year. 895 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: But Mahomes by and large, unsurprisingly has been excellent. I'm 896 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 1: glad you brought up that Broncos game because I was 897 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:20,319 Speaker 1: wondering how much of a concern is that game heading 898 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: into this Texans game, because the Chiefs they had a 899 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: twenty seven nothing lead in the second quarter. But you're right, 900 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: then Mahomes throws the three interceptions and the defense basically 901 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: leaves the door open for the Broncos, who had never 902 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 1: scored twenty eight points this season and that was their 903 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: season high. So what is the team talking about this 904 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: week as they're sort of coming off that win, which 905 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 1: kind of weirdly felt like a loss. Yeah, it was 906 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: so strange, right, the Chiefs won that game twenty seven 907 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,760 Speaker 1: to nothing, and then the game continued to be played. 908 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: It's kind of an here, you know, you saw Travis 909 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 1: Kelsey like on the bench with his arms out, just 910 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: a big smile on his face. After the Chiefs scored 911 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,840 Speaker 1: a defensive touchdown to be up almost thirty in the 912 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: first half, and then, as you said, the Mahomes mistakes, 913 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: the defense really couldn't stop the bleeding, and so you 914 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 1: end up with one of those games that, yeah, I 915 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: don't know if moral victories are really a thing, but 916 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 1: moral losses shouldn't be. Obviously, they did enough to control 917 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,280 Speaker 1: that game, right, It was never really really really in danger, 918 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: but the Broncos offense by the end was legitimately testing 919 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: this defense. So it was one of those sort of 920 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: sour games that you think, all right, maybe we don't 921 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,360 Speaker 1: need to take too much away from this, but it 922 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: absolutely is in my mind coming into this game because 923 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: I'm really intrigued to see if the Chiefs try to 924 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: make the Texans get right game for putting a team 925 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 1: away early on, or is it going to be another 926 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: time where you see some later mistakes and could those 927 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 1: end up even coming back around to impact the Chiefs 928 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,399 Speaker 1: in the playoffs this year as well. The Chiefs run 929 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,280 Speaker 1: game is super intriguing to me. I mean, it's obviously 930 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 1: always taken a backseat to the passing attack. But this 931 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,839 Speaker 1: year they've really had to shuffle the running backs quite 932 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 1: a bit. How do they like what they've seen so 933 00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 1: far from that duo of Isaiah Pacheco and McKinnon, And 934 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 1: then you've got Melvin Gordon on the practice squad, So yeah, 935 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: is there a chance that he plays this year or what? 936 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 1: You know, what are the plans do you think for 937 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: this run game moving forward? It might legitimately be the 938 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 1: most interesting or at least the most exciting group on 939 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: this Chief's team because obviously they draft Clyde Edwards Hilaire 940 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: with that first round pick, the last pick of the 941 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: first round back in twenty twenty. He's had some injury issues, 942 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 1: but also just his performances left a little bit of 943 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: meat on the bone, you could say. So then he 944 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 1: gets injured again this year, and then Isaiah Pacheco, the 945 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: seventh round draft pick out of Rutgers. He ends up 946 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 1: just a totally different gear that I haven't seen a 947 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 1: running back can a Chiefs uniform for a long time, 948 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: at least going back to Kareem Hunt. Pacheco just moves 949 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: with an intensity and an explosiveness. You'll see it on 950 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 1: Sunday where he is violent but also quick. He has 951 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: the energy not just with the ball in his hands, 952 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 1: but no kidding, watched for this during the game, running 953 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: from the sideline back to the huddle. He moves that 954 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: route more quickly and more aggressive than any player I've 955 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: maybe ever seen the NFL level. And then Jared McKinnon 956 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 1: they just trust wholeheartedly and with good reason. He's sure handed, 957 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 1: he's an excellent pass catcher, but really, more than anything else, 958 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: he's an excellent pass protector, which really gets you on 959 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 1: the field a lot in an Andy Reid offense. You 960 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 1: mentioned Melvin Gordon. He's on the practice squad a relatively 961 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 1: late addition, just a couple of weeks ago. Could definitely 962 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: see him maybe back in time for their second game 963 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,800 Speaker 1: against the Broncos, little revenge game there, I could see it. 964 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 1: And then Ronald Jones was like a pretty big signing 965 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 1: this offseason, and he was inactive all year long until 966 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 1: Clyde got hurt. And now he's gotten just a tiny 967 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,839 Speaker 1: bit of work there. But really it's about the two 968 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 1: headed monster. Pacheco has so much juice to his game 969 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,920 Speaker 1: and McKinnon is so well trusted as the veteran, specifically 970 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: on obvious passing downs that I really think they've got 971 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: their one two punch, and it's not with the first 972 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: round pick. It's not with the big names. It's a 973 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: seventh round pick and a veteran journeyman, and McKinnon and 974 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: Pacheco really are that duo for this team now. So 975 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: the Texans played the Cowboys last week. Last week, all 976 00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,480 Speaker 1: over the news was Odell Beckham Junior. Is he gonna 977 00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 1: signed with a Boys? Are not? Now? It seems like 978 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,360 Speaker 1: he's not going to play until the postseason. And I 979 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 1: got to ask, with the Chiefs losing Tyreek Hill, are 980 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: they in at all in this obij sweepstakes? Do you 981 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,719 Speaker 1: think there have been reports that they've been kind of 982 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 1: keeping tabs on each other, the Chiefs and Beckham, and 983 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,280 Speaker 1: I think they would be wise to do that both parties. 984 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 1: I also, at this point have a very close to 985 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 1: zero percent interest or really I guess belief that that 986 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 1: match is going to happen, and then if it does 987 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: happen that there would be divided this season. If he 988 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 1: wants to continue that two or this offseason for next year, 989 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,360 Speaker 1: I would be one hundred percent interested in that. But 990 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: the reports about his knee and a very understandable recovery 991 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 1: timeline makes me think that he wouldn't be able to 992 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: get here quick enough to really become comfortable in this 993 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 1: offense for a postseason run and really ultimately, I gotta 994 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 1: keep in mind that McCole Hardman has been on IR 995 00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:52,800 Speaker 1: for the last handful of weeks and Kadarius Tony the 996 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 1: recent edition from right before the trade deadline. He's not 997 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 1: missing time with his hamstrings. Those two guys, I think 998 00:50:58,239 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 1: you're going to be the two that give the Chiefs 999 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:02,799 Speaker 1: another gear whenever they return. Well, a guy that we're 1000 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,759 Speaker 1: very familiar with here in Houston, Justin Reid. We've been 1001 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 1: chatting about him a little bit because he's been in 1002 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,440 Speaker 1: the news and he wasn't quite like this when he 1003 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,479 Speaker 1: was in Houston. Bet he's gotten himself into some Twitter 1004 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:17,280 Speaker 1: scuffles recently, so a little bit of trash talking against 1005 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 1: the Bengals. How has he been viewed in the locker 1006 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,240 Speaker 1: room there and and what are your thoughts on Justin 1007 00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 1: Reid and what's been going on with him so far 1008 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 1: these have the past few weeks. Yeah, it's funny, isn't it? 1009 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 1: Like I expected that's pretty much the reputation that he 1010 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 1: came to Kansas City with was like not a you know, 1011 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: a big smack talker or anything. This Bengals game, this 1012 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: Bengals game had a lot of a lot of energy 1013 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 1: to it, even though obviously Reid was in Houston and 1014 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 1: not with the Chiefs last year. But did the chief 1015 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 1: season the AFC Championship game last year, and they clearly 1016 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 1: had that game circle Justin Reid said as much. But 1017 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 1: then he gets into the matchup stuff and calling guys numbers, 1018 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: and then he's tweeting, and then Jamar Chase is tweeting, 1019 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 1: and then there's something about tuna in a can, and 1020 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 1: it was very weird because Justin Reid's not that guy, 1021 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: and the Chiefs never have that guy. So Justin Reid now, 1022 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: I believe, has had two conversations with Andy Reid about 1023 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: some of the some of the Twitter interactions, because even 1024 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 1: after the game, he tweeted something along the lines of 1025 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: I was right, he was still right, Yeah, yes, cry 1026 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 1: about it, I believe was the sign off on that one, 1027 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: which I didn't think put Justin Reid in a very 1028 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 1: flattering light for a guy who up until literally the 1029 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: Beingles Game unanimously believed and understood to be one of 1030 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,320 Speaker 1: the best talkers at the podium, to be one of 1031 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: the best interviews you can get at a cerebral guy 1032 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: on the defense. Who Steve Spagnolo's really been relying on, 1033 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,880 Speaker 1: I mean, really good stuff from Justin Reid, and then 1034 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: what felt like a really out of character week or so, 1035 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 1: and then after what I believe would have been the 1036 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: second conversation with Andy Reid, he declines to comment anymore 1037 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: on all of that, and I think he's probably gonna 1038 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: be a little bit more buttoned up the rest of 1039 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: the season. It's been very fascinating to watch because You're right, 1040 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know what metamorphosis happened to 1041 00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: Justin read in Kansas City, but it's been a lot 1042 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: of fun to watch from afar on Twitter. But I'm 1043 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: sure that the Chiefs and Andy Reid have got that 1044 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 1: all buttoned up now heading into this final month of 1045 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 1: the season. Joshua appreciate the time as always, Joshua Briscoe, 1046 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,400 Speaker 1: he covers the Chiefs up in Kansas City for Sports 1047 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: Radio eight ten.

Drew has been doing fantastic non 1053 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 1: football question asking of the Houston Texans. Well, this year 1054 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,400 Speaker 1: he decided to throw in a game of Jenga and 1055 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 1: that has gotten exciting. The players are destroying Drew. Now. 1056 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's going to continue here with 1057 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 1: Chris Moore, but knowing how competitive Chris Moore is, I 1058 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 1: got a feeling that Drew's in for a lot of 1059 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 1: trouble playing Jenga, but he's never in trouble when he 1060 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 1: gives us a little Drews dozen with one of the 1061 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 1: great Texans and this one Chris Moore, Drew Hope you 1062 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 1: Wi grew up in Florida, played his college ball brilliantly 1063 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: at Cincinnati, and he's been in the league for quite 1064 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: some time. Had the game of his life at Dallas 1065 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 1: and I say he was in That was a touchdown 1066 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,879 Speaker 1: and we're talking about Chris Moore wide receiver.

Wait, so you haven't lost, unlike the 1073 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 1: Washington Generals against the Harlem Globetrotter.

Chris Moore, who is 1077 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 1: your favorite NFL player growing up? For me, that was 1078 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 1: Larry fitz Joe because the way he u he called 1079 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 1: the Baca everything and so that's always like watching him play. Prolific, Yes, prolific. 1080 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: I think he only has one or two drops in 1081 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: the NAT his career. Really, yeah, holy cow, crazy number 1082 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 1: like that. That is why wild Who has the cleanest 1083 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: locker on the team, the cleanest locker on it? Yeah? 1084 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 1: Is yours locker is pretty clean? But I want I don't. 1085 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,280 Speaker 1: I want to say it's to clean it clean? Okay? 1086 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,279 Speaker 1: With for Rex Burkehead before Rex is a going because 1087 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: he's that he got that personality where he's very regimented him. 1088 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 1: It's probably between him and Jeff Jeff dra School or 1089 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 1: Rex Brook at two very organizing. Which teammate has the 1090 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:28,359 Speaker 1: most inaccurate Madden rating? Most inaccurate Madden rating? I feel 1091 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,800 Speaker 1: like me. I was just talking to mad about this. 1092 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 1: They have my speed at like an eighty eight or 1093 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 1: eighty nine. I'm like, man, I can't be that slow. Yeah, 1094 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 1: you're faster than that. That's terrible. Miles. Gary is faster 1095 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,279 Speaker 1: than me. On there, there's no way I know he's fast, 1096 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 1: But come on, man, he's not being you in a race. No, 1097 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 1: you ran you ran track grown up right. Yes, we 1098 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 1: were hundred two hundred anchor for the four by one 1099 00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,319 Speaker 1: jump in events hurdles. Ye, all that you did the hurdles. Yes, 1100 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:56,120 Speaker 1: you got to be brave to be a hurdler. It 1101 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what the distances. If you're doing that, you're brave. Hey, 1102 00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,359 Speaker 1: Which teammate could play on the other side of the ball. 1103 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: I think das King could. He got a very good 1104 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,279 Speaker 1: field awareness and he's able to cut. That's why he 1105 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 1: still good at palm returner, and so I think he 1106 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: could play back. Maybe even a little slot receiver. That's 1107 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: a good one that he's not been brought up before. 1108 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: But it makes all the sense of the world. He's 1109 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:16,879 Speaker 1: just a good football player all around. Yeah, he's a ball. 1110 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: What is your first memory as a kid? Grew up 1111 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 1: in right outside of Tampa or in Tampa, Yes, but 1112 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 1: when I was very, very young. I was actually born 1113 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: in Orlando, Okay, moved to Tampa and I was younger, 1114 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 1: so I guess it would probably it had to be 1115 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 1: when I was playing in a flag football league there 1116 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:34,840 Speaker 1: in Orlando. Quarterback. He was a little older, and he 1117 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: had like a real strong arm, threw the ball to me, 1118 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:39,799 Speaker 1: knocking me out, really in the head, and knocked me out. 1119 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 1: I'll never forget that. As my mom was screaming and 1120 00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:45,879 Speaker 1: running because she had a little camera, the camera started 1121 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,239 Speaker 1: springing towards and he saw. I'll never forget that. You're 1122 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: ultimately okay though, right, Yeah, I was fine. He's just 1123 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 1: pretty scary moment. It really funny. Yeah, what would your 1124 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 1: superpower be? To teleport? So just be anyway? I want 1125 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:00,160 Speaker 1: to be in Fiji, I want to be. Yes, where 1126 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 1: would you teleport too? Right now if you didn't have 1127 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: a game to play right now? Probably to Cincinnati, get 1128 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 1: some Skyline Chili.

I would say, I really 1144 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 1: don't watch those movies like that. I don't know people. 1145 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,520 Speaker 1: I don't like superhero movies to be honest. No, what 1146 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 1: type of movies you like? I really don't watch movies. 1147 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: So my wife controls the TV. So are you guys 1148 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: watching at home, watching housewives and stuff like that. I 1149 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 1: played a video again, that's what I do. Blow deck 1150 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 1: y'all watch below Decks. Ever, I have seen that show 1151 00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: That's Crazy. That's yeah, that's a good show. But pull Yeah, 1152 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 1: I will say, probably got Marvel because I like Spider Man. 1153 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: One spider Man, He's he's Marvel, right, I want to 1154 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 1: get it wrong? I think so, yes, yes he is. Yes. 1155 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:21,400 Speaker 1: I don't know comics that well either, but yes he is. Okay, Marvel? 1156 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: Where you Disney or Nickelodeon, kid, let's go back? I 1157 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 1: was outside most time, but between the two, I'd definitely 1158 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 1: watch Nickelodeon. Moore. Who has the best hair on the team? 1159 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: Best hair? Yep? Roy for sure? Roy Lopez. Okay, okay, 1160 00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 1: it's that a little shine to it, you know what 1161 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I say I'd give it to Roy definitely 1162 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 1: the best hair all time. Favorite retired NFL player that 1163 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 1: almost follows along the same lines as it's Larry Fitzgerald 1164 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 1: or Randy Moss. Both of them those are good ones. 1165 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, they kind of followed that same categories. Who 1166 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 1: on the team? First of all, do you have sisters? No? Oh? Okay, 1167 00:58:58,240 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 1: let's this is good then, Okay, but if you had 1168 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 1: your brothers, yeah, two older, two younger brothers, you're the 1169 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: big brother. Yes, Let's say you had a sister who 1170 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 1: on the team on the Texans, would you not let 1171 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 1: date your sister? Hey, that's messed up. I think we 1172 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 1: got a bunch of pretty good guys in the locker room, 1173 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 1: so clearly that's a tough one to it. Would definitely 1174 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 1: be a defensive player. Okay, I just don't. I guess 1175 00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 1: it just said. We're just talking about Harriston last week, 1176 00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: you know, like a moment ago last week, Daria Gumbawali 1177 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 1: said Harriston's a really nice guy, but I've seen him 1178 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 1: on the field and he's really aggressive, and I just 1179 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: don't want anybody aggressive like that or my sister. That's 1180 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 1: a good point, but not the choice. Good you dude. 1181 00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about like it is a defensive playoff defensive 1182 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,480 Speaker 1: anybody on defense. I can just say the whole defense. 1183 00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 1: Favorite nickname. I guess people on the team think I 1184 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 1: changed personalities on game day, so they called me see murder. 1185 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 1: See Murder. Yes, that's fine, my favorite one. Because you're 1186 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: all business. Whatever it takes to get the job done exactly. 1187 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: I can see that. I mean, the way you attack 1188 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 1: the ball. I can totally see that block and don't 1189 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: matter running special teams. So CM is one, but that's 1190 01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 1: that's taking it to another level. I like it. Respect 1191 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 1: that it means you care. What is the best piece 1192 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 1: of advice you've ever been given, Chris Moore? Probably to 1193 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 1: be patient everything you're doing. It's easy to get caught 1194 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 1: up in moments and want to rush things to have 1195 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 1: it your way, and just to be patient. I feel 1196 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 1: like low key and my NFL career, that's been how 1197 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:28,720 Speaker 1: I live. It's been a long time since I had 1198 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,240 Speaker 1: a day like I did this past Sunday. Yeah, yeah, patience. 1199 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 1: It's a hell of a day too. They're a great day. 1200 01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: It's worth the way for she gave you that patience advice. 1201 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:39,280 Speaker 1: It's good advice, true. I think it was my mom 1202 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 1: because I was definitely a kid who really wanted things 1203 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 1: now in my way, And you gotta learn how to 1204 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: sit back and relax. This gotta be who's your favorite 1205 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: teammate to sitting next to on the plane? Okay, yeah, 1206 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 1: who's your favorite? So kind of got to sign seats, 1207 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 1: but I sit near Troy and me and him always 1208 01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 1: talking because we both watch anime, So me and him 1209 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 1: always talking about shows. He's really into it, so he 1210 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 1: gives me all the good shows to watch anime. Troy, 1211 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:05,440 Speaker 1: why do you tell us these things? Come on? He 1212 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,040 Speaker 1: didn't even funds his thing. That's his thing. And then 1213 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:11,480 Speaker 1: DP sends next to me. He's always everybody here's a character. 1214 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 1: So he's always a great guy to sit nice too. 1215 01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 1: I bet that is a fun, fun ride. Okay, favorite 1216 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 1: potato chip flavor, the sweet chili, Dorito's favorite cheat meal. 1217 01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's easy for me. What's that any cheeseburger? Okay, 1218 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 1: what's on your perfect cheeseburger? That should be a question 1219 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: on here right here, we got three patties, bacon, grilled onions, pickles, mayonnaise, 1220 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: catch up mustard, mannase, catchup mustard. Okay, what's your guilty 1221 01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 1: pleasure song? Yeah, like you're in the shower, you're in 1222 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:43,280 Speaker 1: a car, there's nobody else around. You start singing, but 1223 01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: if there were somebody around, you kind of get quietly 1224 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 1: change the channel. It's probably like the Trolls soundtrack, because 1225 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 1: that's my daughter right now. That's the movie she's watching 1226 01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 1: and sadly, I know all the songs because how many 1227 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: times she watched it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When I pops 1228 01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: on my head, I definitely I want to sing that 1229 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:02,360 Speaker 1: in the locker room or playing in a lot. Yeah. 1230 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,360 Speaker 1: We both have little kids. Bro yep, they run the house. 1231 01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 1: That's right, all right, Chris. It's always fun playing with friend. 1232 01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: Great to see if there is nothing like a Jenga 1233 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 1: board being toppled. Well, the only other thing I can 1234 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 1: match up to that is if I go undefeated with 1235 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 1: my picks. They are next straight up against the spread, 1236 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 1: for fun, for fun for NFL games this weekend. Stay 1237 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 1: with me right here. I'll text until access. Well, you know, 1238 01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 1: it's Friday night, and that means the games are coming 1239 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 1: up on Saturday and Sunday this week in the NFL, 1240 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:43,560 Speaker 1: and that makes it fun for me. John Harris, Football 1241 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 1: ANALYSTSIO Report, your host for this evening to talk about 1242 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,920 Speaker 1: all the games that are going on. I like to 1243 01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: do my predictions straight up and against the spread. It's 1244 01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 1: always fun to talk about these games in that way. 1245 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:03,200 Speaker 1: Ready music, let's rock now Thursday night. I would have 1246 01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:04,840 Speaker 1: gotten this one because I think the forty nine is 1247 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,240 Speaker 1: the best team in the NFL right now. Twenty one thirteen, 1248 01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:11,440 Speaker 1: brock Purty got it done against the Seahawks. They scored 1249 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 1: early and often, got a twenty one to three lead 1250 01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 1: early into third court, took the foot off the gas 1251 01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: a little bit and let's Seattle back in it. But 1252 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:21,959 Speaker 1: they finished at twenty one thirteen up at Seattle party 1253 01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 1: two hundred seventeen yards, two touchdowns. McCaffrey ran for over 1254 01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 1: a hundy at a touchdown, Kittle at two touchdowns, and 1255 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:29,680 Speaker 1: ninety three yards receiving forty nine is wed to ten 1256 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,920 Speaker 1: and four. So that sets up our games on Saturday. 1257 01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:40,400 Speaker 1: First one, Colts Vikings in Minnesota, early game on a Saturday. 1258 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:46,240 Speaker 1: I think typically i'd lean home team, this one, definitely 1259 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 1: leaning home team. The Vikings last week were a mess 1260 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,880 Speaker 1: up in Detroit, a mess. I think they bounced back. 1261 01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:55,800 Speaker 1: They got a three. They're three and a half point favorite. 1262 01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: I think they win and cover that over the Colts. 1263 01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,160 Speaker 1: The Colts are maybe named bigger mess right now, and 1264 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens with the Colts going forward. I 1265 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 1: think a lot of decisions have to be made for 1266 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: every team in AFC South, but definitely the Colts because 1267 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 1: well they've got a head coaching job opening right now, 1268 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 1: if you think, unless Jim Mersey decides that Jeff Saturday 1269 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,760 Speaker 1: is guy, which I don't see happening, but all right, 1270 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 1: rock on. But either way, Vikings go win that They're 1271 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 1: gonna get to eleven and three and they're gonna cover 1272 01:04:20,560 --> 01:04:22,200 Speaker 1: that three and a half points spread. Ravens are going 1273 01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 1: to the Browns. Browns are fair by three at home, 1274 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 1: and I have a hard time both going against my 1275 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:31,280 Speaker 1: heart in my head and they both say Ravens. So 1276 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,200 Speaker 1: we need the Ravens to come up with an upset, 1277 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 1: but it will not be easy at all. Mark Jackson hurt, 1278 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley hurt. This is not great for the Ravens 1279 01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 1: to go get this win. But I know the Ravens 1280 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 1: want to welcome to Shaun Watson into the fold in 1281 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: this particular football game, so I can't go against my 1282 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 1: heart in my head. So I'm going Ravens. I'll be 1283 01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 1: right in front of TV. I know you guys will 1284 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,480 Speaker 1: you're ring for the Baltimore Ravens to beat the Browns. 1285 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,000 Speaker 1: Hopefully the Ravens get to ten and four and of course, 1286 01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 1: being underdog, they win, they cover, and then at night 1287 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:13,680 Speaker 1: could be an absolute deluges snow in Orchard Park, New York, 1288 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 1: Buffalo's favorite by seven against the Dolphins. Mike McDaniel has 1289 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 1: talked about the weather not being a factor. He's wearing 1290 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 1: caprit pants and shirts that say, we don't care, let 1291 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 1: it snow whatever. I think the Bills hammer the Dolphins. 1292 01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,080 Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins are cooked. I think they're well done. 1293 01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 1: I think the Bills take them to the wood shed 1294 01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:35,600 Speaker 1: and move one win closer to that over bet than 1295 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,080 Speaker 1: I notice some friends of mine have, so let's get 1296 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:41,320 Speaker 1: that this week Dolphins lose, fall the eight and six 1297 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,440 Speaker 1: Bills win and seven point favorite. I think the Bills 1298 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 1: win and cover that. This feels twenty four to six. 1299 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: Dolphins will have trouble in that snow, but the Bills, well, 1300 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 1: I don't say they mutters, but they understand how to 1301 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,040 Speaker 1: play that snow, as does Josh Allen. So I'm going 1302 01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 1: to Bills to win and hope everybody's safe in Buffalo. 1303 01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:00,680 Speaker 1: A Buddy Salath there. Hope he's gonna be safe, and 1304 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 1: they're all gonna be safe. They're an overtured park, but 1305 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:06,040 Speaker 1: it should be fun nighttime NFL Network game. Buffelo is 1306 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:07,880 Speaker 1: gonna win. And cover the seven. All right, Sunday games 1307 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:12,480 Speaker 1: starting at noon, the Eagles go to the Chicago Bears 1308 01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 1: Philadelphias a nine point favorite on the road the Bears. 1309 01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:22,440 Speaker 1: I feel like the Bears track for the rest of 1310 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 1: this year is already set. I feel like there might 1311 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 1: be a win here there, but they're gonna be a 1312 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 1: four or five win team. That's an under. That's good. 1313 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 1: I think the Eagles win this now they cover the nine. Yeah, 1314 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with covering to nine. So Eagles wins 1315 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 1: by ten and to think the Bears will get some 1316 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 1: early but in the end of Eagles will take care 1317 01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:44,240 Speaker 1: of business, will win this by ten to fourteen. Let's 1318 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 1: give the Eagles a win and a cover. The Falcons 1319 01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 1: are taken on the Saints. Desmond Ritter will start for 1320 01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 1: the first time. The Falcons and the Panthers are still 1321 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 1: in this thing behind the Buccaneers. The Bucks are six 1322 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 1: and seven. The Buccaneers is gonna play the Bengals. So 1323 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:04,760 Speaker 1: I win here by the Falcons over the Saints can 1324 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,000 Speaker 1: put them right really where they want to beat, which 1325 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:08,959 Speaker 1: is crazy to think about, but the Saints aren't gonna 1326 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:10,480 Speaker 1: let it happen. The Saints are gonna get this win 1327 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,200 Speaker 1: at home. Desert Ritter's gonna show some promise, but not 1328 01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 1: all the way there. New Orleans is gonna win this. 1329 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna win this by a touchdown twenty eight twenty one. 1330 01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,240 Speaker 1: That's a cover, Saints winning cover. Lions taken on the 1331 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 1: Jets and Zach Wilson. Lions already won and MetLife this year. 1332 01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna win again. They're favored by point 1333 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 1: and a half. I think they disrupt Zach Wilson. I 1334 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 1: think this is a bad day for him. Turns the 1335 01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 1: ball over. Lions win this thing and a cover that 1336 01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: one and a half in MetLife, winning twice in MetLife. Wow. 1337 01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 1: How about that? Steelers taken on the Panthers both teams 1338 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:44,040 Speaker 1: five and eight. Steelers not in the AFC North Raid, 1339 01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 1: Panthers are in the NFC South Raids. The Panthers are 1340 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:50,160 Speaker 1: favored by three. You know what, why not, Let's make 1341 01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 1: this thing sort of wild over in the NFC South. 1342 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 1: Let's give the Panthers a win and a cover and 1343 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 1: a Dave Tepper special. He was a minority owner and Steelers. 1344 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,320 Speaker 1: Now he's the full time owner of the Panthers. Panthers 1345 01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:04,120 Speaker 1: are gonna win this. It won't be pretty, it's gonna 1346 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 1: be like seventeen twelve, but they're gonna win in a 1347 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:10,439 Speaker 1: cover at home. Cowboys Jaguars is the sneakiest hot game 1348 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:14,080 Speaker 1: in the week. Nowon game in Jacksonville. Never know the 1349 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 1: weather is gonna be down there. Cowboys coming off a 1350 01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:21,599 Speaker 1: narrow victory last week against US Jaguars housed the Tennessee Titans. 1351 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,000 Speaker 1: Now they're going back to Duval County and they gotta 1352 01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 1: show that they've got it. They can't play great one 1353 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:29,400 Speaker 1: week bad the next great, one week bad the next. 1354 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:32,599 Speaker 1: They gotta take that step. I'm not sure they're gonna 1355 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 1: take it. I think Dallas wins this one thirty four, 1356 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 1: twenty seven. Trevor keeps it close early, but Cowboys pull 1357 01:08:37,840 --> 01:08:41,599 Speaker 1: away late. Dallas wins it covers Cardinals and Broncos. Denvers 1358 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 1: favor by point and a half. Why not? I mean, 1359 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't have any clue. Kyler Murray's hurt. 1360 01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 1: We go Denver to win and cover that. Why not? 1361 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 1: Patriots taken on the Raiders. Patriots are seven six after 1362 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 1: Monday night. Whenever the Cardinals. They gotta go back on 1363 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:54,640 Speaker 1: the road. To take on the Raiders. I think the 1364 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,360 Speaker 1: Raiders will get them. I think McDaniels we're gonna win 1365 01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 1: over the Boss, Bill Belichick. Las Vegas a one point favorite. 1366 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 1: Le's go, I's almos gonna pick them. Let's go Raiders 1367 01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 1: to win through to six and eight at home. Titans 1368 01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,240 Speaker 1: and Chargers both teams. They're seven and six and I'm 1369 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:13,479 Speaker 1: Tennessee's gotta go out to Los Angeles. Chargers are coming 1370 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,640 Speaker 1: off a win last week against the Miami Dolphins. I 1371 01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:19,120 Speaker 1: think they win at home, get to eight and six 1372 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:21,879 Speaker 1: and that puts the Titans in a lot of trouble 1373 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 1: at seven and seven and Charges the three point favorite. 1374 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 1: They'll cover. Bengals Buccaneers. Fun game. Bengals going to Tampa Bay. 1375 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:30,120 Speaker 1: Since Daddy's favorite by three and a half, I think 1376 01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:33,760 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers are gonna find something here. Finally, Bucks win 1377 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:37,000 Speaker 1: in an upset at home. I don't know how, but 1378 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 1: they're gonna do it and beat the Bengals. Commanders Giants 1379 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 1: they tied. They're both seven five. One's a big game 1380 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 1: on Sunday night, watching its favorite by five at home. 1381 01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:47,559 Speaker 1: I'm taking the Commanders to win and cover that five 1382 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 1: and Monday night Man Rams Packers Green Bay's favorite by seven. 1383 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 1: Give it the Packers, Packers by ten. Let's go with that. 1384 01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:59,240 Speaker 1: All right, those are your picks for this week. All right? 1385 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 1: Coming up, Nat, We've got Houston Methodist Minutes, We've got 1386 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: Nick Kissius scouting reported the Chiefs, and we got Drew 1387 01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 1: Dory's Final Word Wick Chris Moore.

I am your host, John Harris flop Pianos 1390 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,760 Speaker 1: sideline reporter for your Houston Texans So glad to be 1391 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 1: with you. We got a lot to do in this segment. 1392 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:22,839 Speaker 1: So let's kick it off with some Houston Methodist Minutes 1393 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:27,559 Speaker 1: with Mark VanderMeer and the great people over at Houston Methodist. 1394 01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 1: Mark take it away. It's Houston Methodist Minutes with doctor 1395 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,640 Speaker 1: Course Jafarnia. Doctor, how's it going today? Very good? Thank you. 1396 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 1: Let's talk about wrist injuries because these happen to a 1397 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:41,639 Speaker 1: lot of athletes, a lot of people in everyday life. 1398 01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 1: Is this maybe the most common bone injury we see 1399 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 1: among the pedestrians of the world. Doctor, Because people walk, 1400 01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 1: they fall, they break their fall. Is that how it works, 1401 01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 1: you tell me it sure is, especially in sports and 1402 01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:57,880 Speaker 1: in the elderly population when they fall and try to 1403 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 1: catch themselves with an outstretched hand. But certainly in sports 1404 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:04,160 Speaker 1: when people fall, their initial instinct is to protect their 1405 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:06,400 Speaker 1: head and the rest of their body and catch themselves 1406 01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:08,760 Speaker 1: with their arm. And that's where the wrist tracts come 1407 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,479 Speaker 1: into play, because that's that's the most common bone to 1408 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:14,760 Speaker 1: get affected in these injuries. So is a sprain a 1409 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:19,439 Speaker 1: possibility here as well? What are the other less severe injuries? Yeah, 1410 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:22,240 Speaker 1: so you can get sprains, you can get ligament injuries 1411 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:25,160 Speaker 1: and tears, or you can just get a frank fracture. 1412 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:27,840 Speaker 1: And sprains happen when you have the extremes of a 1413 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 1: flexed or extended wrist in motions basically. And then fractures, 1414 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:35,800 Speaker 1: of course, fall occur with falls and with the load 1415 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 1: on the wrist, and the ligament tears when the joints 1416 01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:41,840 Speaker 1: stretch so much that the ligaments have to give way 1417 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:46,400 Speaker 1: in an extreme situation. All right, what about elbow, because 1418 01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: I know you're an expert on this as well. For 1419 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:51,600 Speaker 1: the common folk, for lack of a better way of 1420 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 1: putting it, excuse me for putting it that way. But 1421 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 1: what is the most common way to injure someone's elbow 1422 01:11:56,680 --> 01:12:00,080 Speaker 1: that you see. It's it's again a fallen outstretched and 1423 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 1: but more so with the elbow locked and extended, and 1424 01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:07,759 Speaker 1: you can get fractures of the smaller bone in the elbow. 1425 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,679 Speaker 1: You can get the triceps pulling on the bigger bone 1426 01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 1: in the elbow and fracturing that one as well. And 1427 01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:15,320 Speaker 1: there's a lot of dislocations that happen around the elbow 1428 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:18,000 Speaker 1: as well. It's a very common injury in the elbows. 1429 01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,040 Speaker 1: You get dislocation, all right. So I know you're a 1430 01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:24,040 Speaker 1: hand expert in general here as well. I once injured 1431 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 1: a bone in my hand. I couldn't believe how many 1432 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:28,800 Speaker 1: people are experts at this where you have to do 1433 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:32,840 Speaker 1: hand therapy and all these different treatments. Tell me what 1434 01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:35,960 Speaker 1: goes into that, because I know it's probably a pretty 1435 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 1: complicated appendage, right, Yeah, So there are so many small 1436 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 1: bones in the hands and fingers. You know, each finger 1437 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 1: has four bones and the thumb has three. Then there's 1438 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:48,640 Speaker 1: eight bones in the wrist. So all together, there's a 1439 01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 1: lot of moving parts and a lot of ligaments holding 1440 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:56,000 Speaker 1: those bones together, and then tendons crossing over the joints 1441 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 1: and the ligaments, so all together, whenever you have these injuries, 1442 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 1: he's all left to move and glide properly and without 1443 01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:07,599 Speaker 1: getting too much scar tissue. And so is a delicate 1444 01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,080 Speaker 1: balance when you have injuries like you had, and that's 1445 01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:11,880 Speaker 1: why the therapists come into play and they get the 1446 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:16,160 Speaker 1: patients and the athletes moving earlier and more properly so 1447 01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:20,080 Speaker 1: that the scar tissue doesn't ensue. Doctor, great information. Thank 1448 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,960 Speaker 1: you very much for joining us. Sure thing doctor of course, 1449 01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 1: Jafarnia from Houston Methodist. It's the official healthcare provider of 1450 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 1: the Houston, Texans, Houston Methodist leading medicine. Great stuff there, Mark, 1451 01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 1: appreciate that. Now. One of the things that I have 1452 01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:38,120 Speaker 1: done every single week since we have had Nicssaria weekly 1453 01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:40,640 Speaker 1: in studio the last couple of years. We get to 1454 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:43,599 Speaker 1: the point where we've talked about the previous week's game 1455 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 1: and then it's okay, let's turn to page to the 1456 01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,320 Speaker 1: next team. Nick, give us the scouting report. And this 1457 01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:53,040 Speaker 1: is always I even say this in the interview when 1458 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:56,640 Speaker 1: I asked a question here of Nick, I want to 1459 01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,200 Speaker 1: know if I've missed something when I'm going back and 1460 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:01,080 Speaker 1: I'm looking at So there's a name that he says, 1461 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: or there's somebody that he mentions, and I'm like, oh, 1462 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 1: wait a second, I need to make sure I mentioned 1463 01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:06,640 Speaker 1: that guy, I know your foe, or I need to 1464 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:09,759 Speaker 1: go watch and make sure that I'm capturing all the information. 1465 01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 1: Nick does a great job of breaking it down. So 1466 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: we've got a little two parter here with Nick. It's 1467 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 1: all one big thing. Because I asked him the question, 1468 01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:18,280 Speaker 1: give us the scott An report in the Chiefs. He 1469 01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 1: gives us that, But then I asked him how the 1470 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:24,559 Speaker 1: team has changed. The Chiefs have changed with no Tyreek 1471 01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:27,879 Speaker 1: tick a Listen. I mean, look, everybody talks about Patrick 1472 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,680 Speaker 1: and Kelsey, and rightfully, so I'd say the one thing 1473 01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 1: about Kelsey, he's actually gotten better as a player. I know, 1474 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 1: not that you know. Travis is a really good player, 1475 01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:39,160 Speaker 1: but I think he's kind of evolved as a player. 1476 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,760 Speaker 1: He's difficult to match up as there's in the league, 1477 01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:44,439 Speaker 1: so in a way, they displaces him the way they 1478 01:14:44,520 --> 01:14:48,639 Speaker 1: use him. He's just such a very instinctive, savvy player 1479 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:52,000 Speaker 1: with really good hands, and there's a trust factor that 1480 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:54,640 Speaker 1: built has been built up between him and Mahomes. So 1481 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,360 Speaker 1: everybody talks about those two players, and rightfully so, they're 1482 01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:59,559 Speaker 1: probably two of the best players at their respective positions 1483 01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,559 Speaker 1: in the league. I'd say this to touch briefly on Patrick. 1484 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,720 Speaker 1: The way he kind of manipulates the maneuvers within the 1485 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:08,960 Speaker 1: pocket is probably kind of what separates him. In addition 1486 01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 1: to just his overall awareness and instinctiveness. He has a 1487 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,080 Speaker 1: way to kind of move up and out and slide 1488 01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:17,080 Speaker 1: and he's looking to throw when he runs, which not 1489 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,560 Speaker 1: all quarter quarterbacks have doing that. So in addition to 1490 01:15:19,600 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 1: all his physical skills and attributes were which arn ammends, 1491 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 1: his ability to kind of understand and his instinctiveness and 1492 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:28,519 Speaker 1: ability to play is kind of very unique. But they've 1493 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:30,559 Speaker 1: kind of reshaped the offensive line a little bit when 1494 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 1: you actually look at it, so kind of right to left. 1495 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:37,160 Speaker 1: So whiley, you know, who's kind of been a swing guy, 1496 01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:40,559 Speaker 1: now he's playing right tackle. You know, they drafted Trey Smith, 1497 01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 1: who you know, was a twenty twenty one draft and 1498 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 1: he had a medical condition. There was some not sure 1499 01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 1: if he could play, and he basically has been a 1500 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,640 Speaker 1: starter day one. They drafted Humphrey last year in the 1501 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 1: second round, which is a player that we actually like, 1502 01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: we thought we might have a chance there at the 1503 01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,720 Speaker 1: bottom of a round, and then they actually ended up 1504 01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:01,280 Speaker 1: drafting him in Bolton, you know, So it's a way 1505 01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:04,840 Speaker 1: the cookie crumbles sometimes, and they signed Tuny you know who. 1506 01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 1: You know, we have experience I've experienced with their in 1507 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:10,080 Speaker 1: New England and they traded for Orlando, so kind of 1508 01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:12,479 Speaker 1: have reshaped over the last year or to the offensive line, 1509 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 1: and they've really gotten really good production from Pacheco. I mean, 1510 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 1: here's a guy seventh round draft pick, not Hoigh, he 1511 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,599 Speaker 1: thought of have Edwards a Leier. Edwards Leier has kind 1512 01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:24,400 Speaker 1: of been hurt or what have you. So Pacheco goes 1513 01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: in there and he's been kind of one of their 1514 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 1: better offensive players here the last top of many weeks. 1515 01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:29,880 Speaker 1: So between him and McKinnon, they kind of have a 1516 01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 1: good one two punch there. Kelsey, you know, and and 1517 01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:35,639 Speaker 1: the receivers. They've kind of rotated a number of players 1518 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 1: through there. You're starting to see Sky more play more, 1519 01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 1: more opportunities. Juju's playing more inside and formation. It's not 1520 01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:44,640 Speaker 1: valid as scantling, so it's maybe not necessarily about one 1521 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 1: particular player. It's a combination of all their skill players, 1522 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:49,720 Speaker 1: but puts a lot of stress on the defense. So 1523 01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: they've done a great great job of kind of using 1524 01:16:52,400 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: everybody um and you know they're hard to defend obviously 1525 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 1: and defensively, you know with Spags and miss Spags is 1526 01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 1: long history with coach read going back to Philadelphia, U. 1527 01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:04,240 Speaker 1: Spagg has been a really good defensive coordinate this league 1528 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:05,960 Speaker 1: for a long time. I mean he you know, unfortunately 1529 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 1: was with the Giants a couple of those years when 1530 01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:09,800 Speaker 1: you know, we played him in the Super Bowl. But 1531 01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:11,880 Speaker 1: Spaggs has a very i would say it's a stink 1532 01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 1: style of how he wants to play, very aggressive, UM, 1533 01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:18,040 Speaker 1: pressure minded coach. They play more press coverage than any 1534 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 1: team in the league, so they kind of play to 1535 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,120 Speaker 1: how they play and they have a certain i would 1536 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 1: say profile of what they look for in the secondary. 1537 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 1: And they're playing essentially like four three or four rookies 1538 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 1: at corner. So McDuffie's playing a lot. M Watson's played 1539 01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 1: to playing Williams, a Faithfel State kid who they took 1540 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:37,760 Speaker 1: in the fourth round. So they're playing Snead is an 1541 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,680 Speaker 1: interesting guy, you know, was a safety slash corner at 1542 01:17:40,720 --> 01:17:43,280 Speaker 1: law Tech kind of started safety, then they moved in 1543 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: a corner. But they're big, long and fast, I mean 1544 01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 1: all of except for McDuffie. He's six foot and above 1545 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 1: one hundred ninety five two hundred pounds and are all fast, 1546 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 1: all right, And they're good line of scrimmagem you know, 1547 01:17:55,520 --> 01:17:57,679 Speaker 1: Justin's done a good job for them here as well. 1548 01:17:57,760 --> 01:17:59,439 Speaker 1: And the thorn Hill has kind of been i'd say 1549 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:03,200 Speaker 1: a steady presence or force, so they're secondary. They kind 1550 01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:05,639 Speaker 1: of reshaped the whole corner position. A lot of younger players, 1551 01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:07,240 Speaker 1: added a couple of veterans here and there, and then 1552 01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 1: an affront. I mean, really it starts with Bolton and 1553 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 1: I would say Chris Jones. I mean those two players. 1554 01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:14,200 Speaker 1: Bolton is as good of a linebackers in the league. 1555 01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:16,200 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody really talks about him that much, 1556 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:19,440 Speaker 1: but he's very instinctive, he's very aware. He's a great communicator, 1557 01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:22,200 Speaker 1: leasure team and tackles. I mean he's basically played since 1558 01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:24,360 Speaker 1: day one. And then Jones is a matchup problem wherever 1559 01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:26,160 Speaker 1: you put him, whether he's inside, where he's outside, and 1560 01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, defensive end, he can rush from the perimeter, 1561 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 1: he can rush inside, which not a lot of guys 1562 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 1: can do that. You know, they've gotten good production from 1563 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,639 Speaker 1: karloftas here you know as well, and then Frank Clark. 1564 01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 1: So again, when you look at their team, it's you think, well, 1565 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 1: it's a veteran, kind of experienced team. It is, but 1566 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:46,200 Speaker 1: they're playing as many rookies probably as we are and 1567 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 1: throughout the course of the season. So it's kind of 1568 01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:49,880 Speaker 1: interesting when you look at their team nick along those lines, 1569 01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:51,960 Speaker 1: but Checo, where's ten? And you watch him on film 1570 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:53,799 Speaker 1: and you're like, well, he looks like Tyreek, but obviously 1571 01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:57,839 Speaker 1: Tyreek is not there. How's the offense in what you've studied? 1572 01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:02,240 Speaker 1: How's the offense for Kansas City evolved without Tyreek? With 1573 01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:05,040 Speaker 1: I should say, just Kelsey? Would you mention those guys? 1574 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:07,639 Speaker 1: They're different, They're not Tyreek though. How's the offense sort 1575 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 1: of involved without him? Yeah? I think there's been a 1576 01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:13,680 Speaker 1: maybe bigger distribution of targets, I mean target Kelsey is 1577 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 1: the most targeted player offensively, so it's kind of Kelsey 1578 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:19,640 Speaker 1: to Juju, and then they've kind of reallocated some of 1579 01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:21,479 Speaker 1: the other throws. Valid Scantling kind of has the things 1580 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 1: that he does well, I mean one guy. They've actually 1581 01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 1: gotten decent production out of which is kind of different. 1582 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:27,800 Speaker 1: But like Chris Moore kind him in his backup roll 1583 01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 1: as Watson, you know, a kid from Penn that it 1584 01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:33,280 Speaker 1: was down to Tampa Bay. So they just vary. They 1585 01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:35,479 Speaker 1: have a very number of ways that they can actually 1586 01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 1: attack a defense. They're primarily an eleven personnel teams, so 1587 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,200 Speaker 1: formations are pretty much opened up formations, but they do 1588 01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 1: a good job using motion and kind of putting people 1589 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 1: in spots. And then Patrick is so in tune with 1590 01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:50,479 Speaker 1: what's going on mentally he can anticipate. But there's certainly 1591 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:53,639 Speaker 1: a trust factor, you know, with between him and Kelsey, 1592 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,560 Speaker 1: not that he doesn't trust the other players, but in 1593 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:58,400 Speaker 1: critical situations, I mean, Kelsey's the go to guy, and 1594 01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:00,800 Speaker 1: even when you think you have him doubled, he still 1595 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:02,760 Speaker 1: makes the play. So they just put a lot of 1596 01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:04,439 Speaker 1: stress and a lot of tacks on a defense. So 1597 01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:06,160 Speaker 1: you're just gonna have to make sure that you mean, 1598 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 1: you can't look, you can't defend everybody. You just have 1599 01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 1: to be disciplined, understand maybe some of the concepts they 1600 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,519 Speaker 1: might repeat there in the course of the game, and 1601 01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:15,960 Speaker 1: just try to see if you can disrupt the quarterback 1602 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:17,360 Speaker 1: the best you can. But he does a good job, 1603 01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:20,519 Speaker 1: like I said, kind of maneuvering around and at times 1604 01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:22,160 Speaker 1: it's really hard, you know, hard to get to him. 1605 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:24,360 Speaker 1: Great stuff there from Nick And one of the guys 1606 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:26,040 Speaker 1: that he actually mentions are one of the names that 1607 01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 1: he mentioned was a Texan. That's Chris Moore. Well, how 1608 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:34,920 Speaker 1: about Drew Doherty's final word this evening with the receiver 1609 01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 1: who said a career mark last week with ten receptions, 1610 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:42,360 Speaker 1: a career marking yards one hundred and twenty four yards, 1611 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 1: Andy down upon at the one and you attack on 1612 01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:47,559 Speaker 1: special teams. Christ Moore does a little bit of everything, 1613 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:52,200 Speaker 1: and he talked about this one Withdrew. Drew's final word, Chris, 1614 01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:54,559 Speaker 1: good to be with you. Coming off a game against 1615 01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:57,720 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Career best in catches, ten, career best 1616 01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,360 Speaker 1: in yard you cracked the hundred yard mark. I say, 1617 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:02,479 Speaker 1: you got in for that touchdown. But what was it 1618 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 1: like getting that opportunity and really season the moment, taking 1619 01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: the most of it. Yeah, like you say, when you 1620 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:08,840 Speaker 1: get the opportunity on the field, you just got to 1621 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:10,160 Speaker 1: make the most of it. And at the end of day, 1622 01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:11,680 Speaker 1: whenever I'm out there, I'm really just trying to help 1623 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:13,599 Speaker 1: this team. Win. I try to give him my all, 1624 01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:15,120 Speaker 1: so at any time they call my number, I was 1625 01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:16,800 Speaker 1: just trying to make a play. And it's clear you've 1626 01:21:16,840 --> 01:21:18,880 Speaker 1: never lacked for confidence since since you got here, and 1627 01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:20,559 Speaker 1: certainly if you made it as the NFL. But does 1628 01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:22,360 Speaker 1: that even help boost it a little bit after what 1629 01:21:22,439 --> 01:21:24,080 Speaker 1: you're able to do? Oh for sure. It just in 1630 01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 1: your head, it's solidifies like what you it race is 1631 01:21:27,240 --> 01:21:29,560 Speaker 1: really the doubts. If you ever doubt it yourself, that 1632 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:31,720 Speaker 1: just solidifies, like, man, you belong here, that you can 1633 01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:33,160 Speaker 1: make these plays and you can go out there and 1634 01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 1: really play at a high level. Okay, late in the season, 1635 01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 1: you're back at home playing against a really good Chiefs team. 1636 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 1: Take the Chiefs out of the equation, though, what do 1637 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 1: the Texans need to do to get a victory and 1638 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,200 Speaker 1: get back in the win called? Yeah, at the end 1639 01:21:43,240 --> 01:21:44,680 Speaker 1: of the game, we just really got to finish. We 1640 01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:47,760 Speaker 1: got to execute. I mean, we had opportunities so many 1641 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 1: times since year at the end of the game to 1642 01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:51,240 Speaker 1: win the game, and we just didn't execute and finish 1643 01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:53,840 Speaker 1: the game. So that's all we gotta do. Get some 1644 01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:55,679 Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter. You know, it was interesting 1645 01:21:55,720 --> 01:21:57,679 Speaker 1: and talking to you after the game, you were asked 1646 01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 1: about the two quarterback system. It's very unique. May or 1647 01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 1: may not see it against the Chiefs, but you all 1648 01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:06,680 Speaker 1: were able to not really get slowed down at all, 1649 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:09,200 Speaker 1: and you talked about, Hey, execution was pretty much flawless. 1650 01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:11,720 Speaker 1: Is that just a matter of practicing it and having 1651 01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:14,000 Speaker 1: a good game plan. Yeah, it was a great game 1652 01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:15,840 Speaker 1: plan going into the game, and then when we were 1653 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 1: doing our walk through, is there even during practice throughout 1654 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: the week, I feel like everybody was locked in and 1655 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 1: detailed on what those assignments for those plays where. Especially 1656 01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 1: when you had two different quarterbacks, There's a lot of 1657 01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 1: different things going on, and the old line got to 1658 01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:28,479 Speaker 1: do different cadences and stuff, and it's it's just a 1659 01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:30,320 Speaker 1: whole different thing for everybody. So for us to go 1660 01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:32,240 Speaker 1: out there and execute like we did was pretty impressive. 1661 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,599 Speaker 1: And it wasn't like you were only catching big balls 1662 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:38,080 Speaker 1: from Davis Mills or big ones from Jeff Driscoll. You 1663 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,880 Speaker 1: were catching from both guys and that wasn't just you, right, Yeah, 1664 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,680 Speaker 1: I mean all the receivers caught some great passes from 1665 01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:46,599 Speaker 1: both quarterbacks. They both delivered as great opportunities to make plays, 1666 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,439 Speaker 1: and I feel like that always just goes back from 1667 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 1: training camp. Those reps you get in there. You never 1668 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 1: realize how important those are until you get into that 1669 01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:55,640 Speaker 1: moment like we've had preseason. I played with Jeff, I 1670 01:22:55,720 --> 01:22:57,640 Speaker 1: played with Davis, I played all of them, so that 1671 01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:00,439 Speaker 1: those reps really mattered. Yeah, pays dividends a few months 1672 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:02,759 Speaker 1: after the fact. Hey tell me about this chief secondary. 1673 01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:06,160 Speaker 1: What's the most impressive aspect of that backgroup? There? Their 1674 01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 1: unit together, they play well. All of all the the 1675 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:12,000 Speaker 1: dbs and the safeties are connected, so it's not easy 1676 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 1: just to plays out there and trick them or anything. 1677 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 1: They really solid in smart group. If you played for 1678 01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 1: other NFL teams, you're going to see a guy who 1679 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,000 Speaker 1: played here last year. You overlapped with them in justin reed, 1680 01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 1: you'll be going against them. I'm sure you went away 1681 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:25,000 Speaker 1: against them in practice plenty of times. What's it like 1682 01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 1: when you see an old teammate like that, especially a 1683 01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:28,760 Speaker 1: guy like him. Yeah, I mean it's just n one. 1684 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:30,559 Speaker 1: It's nice to see a teammate like that, but too, 1685 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:32,719 Speaker 1: you kind of know a little bit about them, especially 1686 01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:34,519 Speaker 1: when they're on the opposite side of the ball. You've 1687 01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:37,120 Speaker 1: seen them in practice, You've seen how they get ready 1688 01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:38,640 Speaker 1: for a game. So I feel like you know a 1689 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:40,200 Speaker 1: little bit more. But they also know a little bit 1690 01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 1: more about Choo. So it's gonna be fun to match 1691 01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:44,479 Speaker 1: up against him, all right, Other than a victory? What 1692 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:46,800 Speaker 1: are you asking Santa for Christmas? What am I asking 1693 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:50,000 Speaker 1: Santa for Christmas? Shoot? I don't know. I don't really 1694 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 1: ask the much. You got everything you want? Yeah, the 1695 01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 1: victory really would be it. That's all you can ask for. 1696 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 1: How about your little ones? What are they asking Santa for? Shoot? 1697 01:23:57,800 --> 01:23:59,840 Speaker 1: It was really my wife asked getting stuff for her. 1698 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:01,760 Speaker 1: She's not to the age where she can really ask 1699 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,160 Speaker 1: for stuff yet, So it's my wife asking for stuff 1700 01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:06,599 Speaker 1: for her. I got you, I got She's she's playing 1701 01:24:06,680 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 1: the game. I appreciate it. Well. I hope you play 1702 01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:10,800 Speaker 1: a great game against the Chief's. Best of luck and 1703 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,439 Speaker 1: we'll talk to again real soon. Appreciate it. Chris Moore has, 1704 01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:18,559 Speaker 1: over the last two years, risen my ranks of favorite 1705 01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:20,560 Speaker 1: Texans player. I mean, of all time. I mean he 1706 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:24,679 Speaker 1: has been absolutely phenomenal. I love the guy. He plays 1707 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:28,120 Speaker 1: with such passion, he plays with such hard he can 1708 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:30,280 Speaker 1: do it on special teams. He doesn't offense, I mean 1709 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:32,200 Speaker 1: Chris Moore does a little bit of everything. He is 1710 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:34,599 Speaker 1: so great to have around her. Hopefully another ten catches 1711 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:37,760 Speaker 1: are coming his way on Sunday, because there's no Nico 1712 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 1: College That, no Brandy Cooks's, no Damian Pierce.
