00:00 He's not really a rookie quarterback anymore, right?
00:05 A rookie, first four of September, October, getting, he's not going to be nervous entering
00:08 into this game.
00:09 I'm just looking for the culture, getting, I think, a little bit of disrespect, not to
00:12 say that the Texans aren't deserving of winning this football game and possibly even the division.
00:17 I'm just going to give this slight nod to the home team in this game, but by far, over
00:20 these games, we take a look at teams that need it and don't need it.
00:22 This game is really tough for me this week.
00:24 Quickly on the coach of the year thing, and again, like, I actually think it should be
00:28 Shane Stuykton in a runaway.
00:30 Now, part of it, I am, I had expectations for the Texans coming into the year.
00:36 The Texans have obviously beaten the preseason expectations set on them, but when you talk
00:42 about what is defined Houston season, it is Stroud and the offense.
00:46 They need to find a way to make sure Bobby Sloak does not go anywhere, their offensive
00:49 coordinator.
00:50 I'm not saying Rheins has not done a good job.
00:52 I get it, he is in control.
00:54 Their defense is not very good, and that is supposed to be his area of expertise.
00:58 I'm not saying he is working with, you know, pro bowler, and I get it, but the Colts are
01:05 an offense first football team who have played with a backup quarterback all season long.
01:09 Again, no matter what you guys think of Gardner Minshew, Shane Stuykton has had Gardner Minshew
01:13 for his entire season.
01:15 They have, I think, the best team total hit rate in all of football this year, and they're
01:21 right here for the playoffs.
01:22 The thing is, Stuykton is not going to win it if they don't make the playoffs, nor is
01:26 Ryan.
01:27 So, that team is going to have to be a decider.
01:29 Look, the Stefanski case is totally, they've had four quarterbacks, and Flacco has been
01:35 brilliant.
01:36 So, Stefanski is going to be getting credit for that, is I think totally fine.
01:40 They're an 11-win football team, the chance for 12.
01:43 I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
01:45 As far as, you know, one of my favorite props in this game, you mentioned Jonathan Taylor.
01:50 Devon Singletary checks in with a prop of 63-1/2.
01:53 Ramadre and Zeke Elliott in that game in Germany had 33 carries for 142 combined yards.
02:00 They hit the bye week, and they've never fixed their rush defense here in Indianapolis.
02:05 Rashad White went 15 for 100.
02:07 King Henry and Taj Spears combined for 37 carries for $1.77.
02:12 Mixon went for 79.
02:13 We saw the Steelers combo backs go for 73.
02:17 Algier and Bijon went for 141 on the ground combined in that game.
02:23 Both had runs for over 30 yards in that matchup.
02:26 I think that's one of the things that I like here is the Texans don't have to be predictable.
02:32 There will be plenty of Stroud, but I think Devon Singletary is in line for a really good
02:36 game tonight.
02:37 Yeah, 67-1/2, you can maybe get him up to 80, 90, depending upon how that offensive
02:42 line plays.
02:43 A couple of props that I like, because he stepped up last week.
02:46 It's been the go-to for CJ Stroud.
