Transcript

00:00Okay, let's look ahead here, start to shift gears and look ahead to the Tennessee Titans.

00:05D'Amico Ryans, let's take a look at your opponent.

00:07What are your initial thoughts on the Tennessee Titans this week?

00:10Yeah, another division opponent.

00:12We know how important these division games are.

00:15Man, so we know they're going to bring their best, and we got to bring our best.

00:18Like, can we build off of what just happened, right, off the win?

00:21We just had such great momentum, such great energy in our building.

00:25Can we go out, clean up the things we need to clean up?

00:28Because there are still wins.

00:31Can we do that, and can we just remain level-headed?

00:35Like, not allow the pass win to, hey, allow guys to walk around with a big head like we've arrived.

00:41Like, no, can we get back to work, and can we do the things that we need to do to go to Tennessee and get a win?

00:47Important game for us.

00:48We got to go get it.

00:49Can't have a letdown, man.

00:51No letdown, no look ahead.

00:52The one thing that I want to do at some point this week is just go back and watch that Cardinals game.

00:58And that's the one victory the Titans have this year, 22-21 over the Cardinals.

01:02Do you remember that game?

01:03No, I don't.

01:04What was the big thing that turned out?

01:05That was, dude, that was the game.

01:07The Cardinals had no business losing that game.

01:09There was a bunch of crazy stuff that happened.

01:12That was the game where the kid with the long last name, Reggie, he'll text me,

01:17because Reggie's sort of our, he's kind of our Tony Reale to the PTI guys here.

01:22Is it a Nigerian name?

01:23No, it's not.

01:24It's not.

01:24No, but Reggie will remember, because he's got a memory for stuff.

01:28The kid had the long touchdown and dropped the ball right at the goal line.

01:31That would have made it, like, 28-6.

01:34Yeah.

01:34And the game would have been over.

01:35And instead, it stayed at 21-6.

01:39And the Titans came all the way back and won 22-21.

01:42The Titans had a touchdown on a play where Cam Ward threw an interception.

01:48It was like, remember, there was an interception.

01:49Yeah.

01:50Guy fumbles it.

01:51And the interceptor fumbles it.

01:52And the Titans scoop it up and get a touchdown.

01:54Like, just weird stuff happened in that game.

01:56And then two weeks later, Callahan's fired anyways, you know?

01:59The offense for the Titans in that game.

02:01Dude, go back.

02:02Despite all the weirdness.

02:03Go back and watch it.

02:04The second half is highly entertaining.

02:06Yeah.

02:07They were, I mean, like the Cardinals are the better team.

02:12But, obviously, it was a close game.

02:14Yeah.

02:15But, just remember, they beat the Cardinals, all right?

02:17It was the weirdest game of the year.

02:19I just remember looking at Callahan, and they showed his locker room address to the team.

02:25And the two things I noticed, one, like, okay, this feels like a guy.

02:29This guy is the energy level of a guy who's going to get fired if the team stinks.

02:34He's not going to charisma his way through this bad bit of football.

02:37Like, you know, guys like Rex Ryan and guys like that.

02:39Like, all right.

02:40You know, Rex can probably sell me on the fact that this thing will get turned around at some point.

02:45The second thing I noticed was just in the speech itself, Seth, where he's like,

02:48if we just keep doing these things, guys, we're going to be just fine.

02:51And I'm like, nothing that happened in the second half of that game is sustainable or replicable.

02:56None of it.

02:56You got lucky, bro.

02:57And I know you're supposed to say this to your team.

02:59And I know they probably worked hard for you during the week.

03:02But you're sunk.

03:03I felt like you're done, and he was two weeks later.

03:07Like, that was – yeah.

03:08Go back and watch it.

03:09I'm curious your thoughts on – oh, here we go.

03:12A Jillian text.

03:13Demarcato is the last name of the running back who fumbled the ball.

03:16Demarcato.

03:17And that was the one where Gannon came over and hit him on the arm afterwards

03:20and got fined $100,000.

03:21Remember that?

03:21Oh, yeah.

03:22That's right.

03:23Yeah.

03:24Yeah.

03:25Gannon, you bully.

03:26You've disrespected Demarcato a couple times now this season

03:29because when that first happened, you had called him a rookie when he wasn't.

03:33Oh, that's right.

03:33He was a third-year guy.

03:34Yeah, he was a third-year guy.

03:35Look at you.

03:36What a jerk.

03:37Gannon walked over, and he's like, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew.

03:42Yeah.

03:42He smacked him.

03:43Pew, pew on your arm.

03:45Um, uh, as we, uh, look ahead to the Titans, Mike McCoy is their interim head coach.

03:53Uh, he's, I would say most notably, he's been the, he's, he, was he the coach of the

03:58Chargers at one time, the head coach?

04:00I know he was a coordinator for Tebow back in the day.

04:02That's what I remember.

04:03Yeah, because he was, uh, he was one of the, the, the whiz, whiz kid, the time of whiz

04:07kid, probably like in his forties, uh, offensive coordinators that got a chance.

04:11Yeah.

04:11Yep.

04:11But, um, here's Mike McCoy in his media availability, talking about the Texans win over the Jags

04:16this week.

04:17Well, it's a well-coached football team.

04:19I think in all three phases, we've got to go out there and play our best and play complementary

04:23football.

04:23But it says a lot about the football team, the way they played in the fourth quarter yesterday

04:27and how they came back and won that game.

04:29And it's just, that's why you just keep playing.

04:31You, you, you know, you can tell your team these things, but it's a great example of why

04:35you just keep playing and take it one play at a time, live for the next play and anything

04:39can happen.

04:40But it just says so much about them, uh, about how they came back and won the game.

04:44And it's just, they started feeding off each other and that's complementary football at

04:48its finest.

04:48Yeah.

04:48Thanks, Mike.

04:49Appreciate the kind words about the Houston Texans.

04:51It's true.

04:52I wonder if, uh, with the Titans, it just, it seems like they're at that point right now

04:57where they're obviously just trying to keep things from going completely South, including

05:00the fact that Condre Diggs, the safety asked for his release and was granted it.

05:05And I don't know exactly what went on there.

05:08I don't think I hadn't seen any reports that he's having a miserable season or anything.

05:13He's not playing as much as a, as, as he typically might.

05:17Um, but he played in every game and he just said, I want out of here.

05:20And they said, okay, good.

05:21See you later.

05:21Tyler Lockett did that too earlier in the season with them and, and then went and signed

05:26with the Raiders, which is really weird.

05:27Like, that's like going, you know what?

05:30I'm canceling the colonoscopy instead.

05:33Then there was that report that Amy Adams Strunk refused to do business with the Patriots.

05:37She didn't, she didn't want to help out Mike Vrabel at all.

05:40Yeah.

05:41Like, okay.

05:42That sounds like a great situation.

05:43You've got the owner telling the GM, listen, I know you'd like to try, you know, makes,

05:47make some moves for the future and everything, but you're not allowed to do business with

05:51Mike Vrabel because my feelings are hurt with a team.

05:53That would be one of the biggest buyers of the trade deadline, the new Patriots, right?

05:57I mean, they've got to feel like they're in go for it mode right now.

06:00Talk about not being able to set aside your ego.

06:02Yeah.

06:03Okay.

06:03It's a lost season for the Titans.

06:04At the very least, you can maybe try to grab some future value, but no, because you don't

06:10want Mike Vrabel to look any better than he already does.

06:13No, we will deny you.

06:14And I'm sure Vrabel's like, oh no.

06:16Oh, Amy, how will I ever overcome this, this devastating blow with all those incredible

06:21players you have down there?

06:23Kind of respect the pettiness.

06:24I feel like if we ever went to a three person show, we could slide her in here and not miss

06:27a beat as petty as that is, you know?

06:29It feels like, no, you know what though?

06:31Jerry Jones would get over his own personal pettiness and do what's best for the, even

06:35though Jerry Jones doesn't know.

06:37And he would be a better third host of this show too.

06:38He doesn't know how to do what's best for the team, but he at least is always, he's

06:42trying to do what he thinks is best for the team, which is all, which the problem is his

06:47version is what makes the team the most money.

06:49Yep.

06:49But he is setting aside, you know, any kind of personal animosity in that, in that endeavor.

06:54Yep.
