00:00:05
Speaker 1: Snake guys on the clock. This Texans game is over. So join me on the field in the locker room in the tunnels wherever postgame along with my good pal John Harris, the radio sideline reporter, as we break down a little bit of what just happened with your Texans in today's game. And please take a moment to like subscribe and review this podcast. There's nothing else like it. Nobody else is on the field post game like this covering your Texans. Here we go, John Harris. That was another wild one in a different way. Defense only gives up sixteen points today, bananas.
00:00:41
Speaker 2: Huh, Yeah, I mean it was a it's just kind of a weird game. You know, they get ten right out of his shoot, you know, their first three drives, you know, they got ten and then they ended up getting only one scoring drive the rest of the way. I thought, defense, you know, played incredibly, did a really good job on Kyler for the you know.
00:00:56
Speaker 3: For the most part. You know, he had a couple of plays where.
00:00:59
Speaker 2: You know, he got out and he did his thing, you know, and even the touchdown in the you know, the touchdown in the in the third quarter, Yeah, third quarter, it was stopped you know, guy's just it's tough to tackle that guy, you know, and you'd have a hard time telling me that guy had an ACL tear. My goodness, But defense came up a big one, need too. I thought Stingley's interception was a big turning point in the second quarter, and the offense just gave it up too much. Just tough day for the offense, and now you got to regroup and get ready for a game next week for the AFC South lead against the Jaguars.
00:01:27
Speaker 1: It's odd to say that tough day for the offense because at one point there in the second quarter, it looked like this offense could not be stopped. And Tank Dell has that forty yard touchdown catch and I was standing down there, probably ten yards away from you, but we see Dell make about a zillion little moves and CJ bien just enough time, just enough time because he knows I think that Tank's gonna do that. You have a chance to do that, And Tank makes a hell of a catch there at the end.
00:01:51
Speaker 3: Yeah he did.
00:01:52
Speaker 2: I mean that was that play is just massive because I think as I was watching it and we were kind of talking about it upstairs, like I think he's going for a few here, just trying to get three points and CJ got a look he liked and you know, threw it beyond Marco Wilson ended up hitting it deep out a tank. But you know, there's at one point, I think of the first half of like three hundred and fifty yards offense, I'm like, they're gonna just crush this thing. And just the second half was You'll give credit to the Cardinals. Jonathan Gannon made some adjustments and what they were doing. They played a little bit harder, they got the right mix on the field at that point, and they were really good and they made plays on the ball. They made plays when they needed to, plays in the red zone. I mean, you know, look, if you get three turners in the red zone, you're gonna have a shot at.
00:02:29
Speaker 3: Winning any game. And that's what they were able to get today.
00:02:31
Speaker 2: And hopefully the offense can shake it off, Hopefully CJ can shake it off, and we can get back to work against Jacksonville and keep the turnovers at Bay. And he's listen, he's the rookie. He's been avoiding those interceptions all year with really great reads, great throws, and today just caught up to him, and that's gonna it's gonna happen. It's gonna happen to a rookie quarterback. You just hate that it happens, but it happens in the game that you win, and that's you can live with them.
00:02:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's clearly some things you got to clean up offensively on the ground. You have another one hundred yard day from Devin Singletary, but almost all of it comes in the first half. What you saw the first half. Goodness, gracious, it's gonna it certainly should pay dividends for this offense down the line in the weeks to come, right.
00:03:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would hope. So, you know, it was a good Cem Motor run. It just hit me that all five interceptions have come and wins for the Texans, which is weird. It's the strangest thing I think I've ever seen. He threw one against the Saints that went for a first down later through one last week, aast the Bengals, and then he threw three today, So all of them come and win, So haven't heard us, which is kind of interesting. So, but the run game really kind of kept everything at bay. It just really couldn't get it going the way you wanted to. But I got to take off coaches going in first presser. But yeah, it was just, you know, tough day all round. But they don't put ugly win or one pretty win. They just put w and that's what we came up with.
00:03:43
Speaker 1: And it's the third in a row. Thank you John Harris for the time. Texans had not won three in a row since twenty eighteen. On a roll play in the Jags next weekend. Let's go back into the locker room and talk with some more folks. Hey, Devin Singletary, tell me about the first half, in particular, you on the ground was working.
00:04:00
Speaker 3: What was going right for you?
00:04:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, big guys getting getting a lot of movement, you know what I'm saying. Uh, And we was just rolling. We had a lot of a lot of momentum. And we was rolling.
00:04:09
Speaker 1: On an individual front. Though, what were you doing?
00:04:11
Speaker 4: Well, Man, I ain't have to do much. I just I just really had to run, you know what I'm saying. The big guys up front was creating holes. The guys on the outside a getting clean box and uh, just just being me, you know what I'm saying, Just finding ways to make a play.
00:04:23
Speaker 1: You kind of relive and retell the touchdown. What happened on the run there?
00:04:27
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, uh, I think it was on I think it was George. He got off to the to the backer that put me on the safety right now. I don't know if that was a tight end or receiver, but somebody somebody else came and cracked the crack the safety and all I had to do is make a move and get to the end zone.
00:04:42
Speaker 1: When the offense is running the way it's running and I'm saying on the ground and in the air like it wasn't the second quarter there, it looked like you guys are unstoppable.
00:04:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, that's that's big.
00:04:51
Speaker 3: You know.
00:04:52
Speaker 4: You know, we talked about executing all week, and you know we was we was able to execute enough to get to win.
00:04:57
Speaker 1: You Yeah, how about on the other side of the ball, what you saw, defense only gives up sixteen points to day.
00:05:01
Speaker 5: That's big, that's big.
00:05:03
Speaker 4: You know, that just shows you know, we got what it takes, you know, and that's gonna be big for us down the line.
00:05:09
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, thanks for the time, yes, man, no problem, all right, We got right tackle George fan with us right after a victory. George, how sweet is today?
00:05:18
Speaker 3: Oh? Very sweet?
00:05:19
Speaker 1: Man?
00:05:20
Speaker 3: Like my assume I came in locker room. I said it right away, it's a it's an NFL victory, man like this, this is one of them. Grinmy victories right here, Man, like this is you can win one of them, like right now. You know it kind of shows you can do it later on this season. So I feel like defense, if you look at the last three three weeks, we had three game winning streak. It came down to the last last draft. Last two was offense, man, and defense came up eight for us this week. Man, So we're coming around as a fourteen right now. Man, I'm really happy and proud of our guys. Yeah.
00:05:51
Speaker 1: I want to touch on that in a moment, but you just brought up the defense. Yeah, sixteen points allowed on the day. That's a dangerous, very very good quarterback over there.
00:05:58
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, like I said, Man, these dudes making some plays. Well. College is coming back showing he's e laite quarterback again. We got guys that are making plays. Man. Stein had a hell of a day always on the line, man, those guys played really really well. Uh. Happy for our defense tip with for our team.
00:06:15
Speaker 1: Hey, winner lose, there's all this stuff you can improve upon, you guys. At one point the same quarter didn't look like the offense could be stopped. What was going on right then? And how do you keep that going for a full game?
00:06:25
Speaker 3: Yeah? Man, those dudes get paid too, man like that the offense, that defense coordinator get paid too, man, you know, so, so they gonna go out there and make some adjustment. I think they make some really good adjustments. I think we stopped ourselves a few times. This week's gonna be a really a really huge week for us to go back and watch the film and really fix those things, man, because you know team's gonna be looking at it and trying to find different ways to stop seven in this offense. Man. So, uh, this week were gonna were gonna dial in and go out there and uh go out there, fix the fix the mistakes we had this week and get ready for next week.
00:06:56
Speaker 1: Second week in a row. Motor gets motor Singletary gets one hundred yards like what are you guys doing up because he says, tell them, I mean, what are you guys doing up front?
00:07:03
Speaker 3: For man, we make it a certain effort. Man, like we we we we're taking a challenge right now to be the best offensive line in the NFL. Uh, we know we stand and we know where we want to go. There's some things we need to fix. There's a hundred yard hundred hundred plus yard again, rushing yard game again, but uh, it's still not to our standard. We got a standard in our room that we want to get to and we're gonna, we're gonna keep going to get to it.
00:07:24
Speaker 1: Is that the coolest part of all this. You guys win and it's not to your standard.
00:07:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I think it is. Man, I think I think we left a lot on the table. Uh, And I know that in that room, in the offensive line room, we're not happy with it, you know. So, so we're gonna we happy to get the win. We're not happy with our performance in that last in that last quarter, in the last half. So uh, we got the guys in the room to do it, and we're gonna we're gonna make sure we get it done.
00:07:46
Speaker 1: Not happy with it, but you're happy enough to go celebrate and have some fun.
00:07:48
Speaker 3: Tonight, right, Yeah, most definitely, most definitely most that.
00:07:50
Speaker 1: George Fake have a good time thanks so much for the time you Well, I'm doctor Christian Harris. Another game, another win. How sweet is today considering what you guys as a defense were able to do, especially late.
00:08:02
Speaker 6: No, I mean it's real, real big for the team's really trying to keep stacking. I know, we know we got to take this thing one. We got a time and go one and know every week at a time. So I mean, like I said, I mean it's just great for us to get this one right now.
00:08:12
Speaker 1: Dangerous quarterback, good quarterback. He only gets the end zone twice. She only allow thirteen points as a unit. How impressive is that? When you think back, I think about what y'all were able to do.
00:08:21
Speaker 5: I mean it's major for us and our confidence for sure.
00:08:23
Speaker 6: I think you know, also one major thing is us expecting us to do that, expecting us to perform, expecting us.
00:08:28
Speaker 5: To do the details, be on the details so we can have a outcome like that.
00:08:32
Speaker 6: And I think you know, mainly right now is just consistency and trying to continue to build on that.
00:08:36
Speaker 1: You're able to block a few passes I might have undercut, you might have had three or four, but you were batting down some balls today what's.
00:08:41
Speaker 3: Going on in that.
00:08:42
Speaker 6: I mean, you know you got a shorter quarterback, a low ball flight, So I mean, you know you're watching d Lineman. You know, coaches emphasizing with them throughout the week. You know, get your hand up, so you know, whenever I got my opportunity to come off the edge, I just try to take advantage.
00:08:53
Speaker 1: Tell me about what you guys did on the final drive as a defense.
00:08:57
Speaker 6: Just really, I mean, I'm not gonna lie. It is playing ball, like trusting it coach, whatever he was calling. I mean, I think you know that that tackle for loss we had on that last drive, I led the second and fifteen I think you know, like it was regular man covers that it was a great call for us, and they ran the screen and you know he was able to build momentum off for that and just sending pressure at him.
00:09:15
Speaker 5: And you know, I mean that's really it.
00:09:18
Speaker 1: Three wins in a row. What's next for you guys?
00:09:21
Speaker 6: Man, Keep going, keep stacking, trying to get another one. Just want to know every week, so you know, you call and you put in the time throughout the week, and then you know, you go try to execute on Sunday and regardless of the result. You you know you reset on Monday. So this is what we do.
00:09:32
Speaker 1: Big time game and a big time win.
00:09:34
