00:00All right, let's turn to the people here.

00:02Let's hear from the Drive family because this was a hell of a game,

00:1030-6, 7-6 going into the fourth quarter, and then became fun.

00:16And it was fun.

00:17It was a fun scene after the game to see all the Texans fans that traveled

00:21and was there with Aziz and Will as they were on the set with SVP.

00:27But I want to come to you, and I want you to think about it with this thought.

00:30So, watching and coming away from that game, that game's over,

00:34are you more thinking, your thoughts more towards your defense and what they did

00:40or your thoughts more towards your quarterback and how he performed?

00:44Let's kick this thing off with you, Joe.

00:46Where are you at today?

00:48Well, I mean, yeah, I appreciate y'all for taking my call.

00:51You know, I'm watching that game last night, and, you know, I mean,

00:58CJ, I'm more aligned to say that right now, my Texans,

01:06I've been a fan since the inception of the team.

01:08I think we have one of the best defenses I've seen in a long time in football

01:14in general.

01:15And just coming away, looking at that game, I mean, CJ had some –

01:21it was kind of hard to watch, you know, for me and my brother-in-law.

01:25That's real.

01:26It was hard to watch.

01:27Yeah.

01:28It was hard to watch, Ron.

01:30And me and my brother-in-law, we're sitting there watching the game.

01:32And, I mean, to see a defense that you have and how you're controlling the game like that,

01:39I mean, I had confidence in them going into their game that they could contain Aaron Rodgers.

01:43I mean, he's on his last leg.

01:45He's probably out of here waiting for his retirement papers.

01:48But, in the same token, I mean, CJ's going to have to get it together, Ron.

01:53I mean, it's just as simple as that.

01:55And, Clint, I mean, it's just like – I mean, he can sling the ball, like Clint says,

02:00all the time with the best of them.

02:02But, man, when you come into a game like that, man, I mean, you've been there three years,

02:06going on your third year or whatever.

02:08Man, it's time for you to take that next step.

02:10And I'm looking at this generation of defense that we have.

02:13This might be one of the best opportunities that we have to make a run to a Super Bowl.

02:18And the mistakes he made was just dumbfounding to me last night watching the game.

02:25And I know you guys saw it as well.

02:27I mean, five – I mean, some of those fumbles, man, just fall down on the ground, man.

02:32Live to fight another day.

02:33And when you have a defense like that, and it's going to have to be some tough decisions

02:39you were talking about earlier.

02:40But, I mean, I love C.J., but he's going to have to get in his head, man.

02:44Hey, I got these guys behind me, man.

02:46You know, let me go get in here, man, and do something and make some plays happen for these guys.

02:52But, I mean, I'm still all in on C.J.

02:54I mean, I don't think there's a better option out there, you know.

02:57But I just think he has to get it together.

02:59But going forward, I mean, it's going to have to be some discussions, like you guys said.

03:05But, I mean, like I said, our defense –

03:07I got you.

03:07I hear you, Joe.

03:07I hear you.

03:08I hear you.

03:08Joe sound like Joe's still on –

03:10He's fired up.

03:12Yeah, Joe on C.J.

03:13No, I'm with you, Joe.

03:15I feel like Joe had the same thoughts that I had in my head, and I'm going to bring them to you.

03:20I'm sitting there watching this game, and I'm saying to myself, fellas, C.J.'s going to F this up.

03:26Oh, I think – I mean, anybody watching with any –

03:28Like, he's going to F this up.

03:30That 7-6, I thought, oh, God.

03:32Like, 7-6, that turnover down there, that is – that is one that's a kick in the nuts.

03:37Like, you walk on the field, like, defense – on the defense, you're like, damn, man, for real?

03:42Like, usually – but then – then I think Jalen Petrie just clotheslined somebody.

03:48I don't know who that was that I thought went down.

03:51I felt like it ripped my nuts off.

03:52No, man, it was like, man, C.J., he's going to F this up.

03:56Like, come on, dog.

03:57John, where are you at?

03:58Let's jump to you.

04:00Are your thoughts, your mind after that game more on your defense or your quarterback?

04:05Man, I'm worried about that quarterback.

04:06I mean, he – I had my words going in, but, man, he just looked nervous.

04:14And I don't know.

04:15I mean, the way he was throwing in the – I mean, I really went through the ball in the flat to Woody.

04:22He got nailed, and then he got Nico just wide open.

04:26He was just flustered.

04:28I don't know if it was too big for the moment.

04:31I know it was – Pittsburgh's a tough place to play.

04:34But I knew he was going to just mess it up.

04:36Two of my brothers are Steelers fans, so I had to hear from them until the third quarter,

04:41in the third quarter.

04:42But, I mean, I don't know.

04:44Did you think D'Amico thought about putting Mills in?

04:48Because you had to know he was flustered.

04:51Go ahead.

04:52Thanks, John.

04:52Yeah, no, I don't think – I think that is –

04:56no, I think there's a conversation that has to be had about how much money you're going to spend

04:59on C.J. Stroud in the future and when you decide to spend that money.

05:03But I don't think they've reached a point where they are even remotely close to considering

05:07replacing C.J. Stroud in-game moment.

05:11I mean, I think they'll go down with C.J. Stroud before they made that move.

05:16I just – I mean, you can tell by the way that they talk immediately following the game

05:20and the way that they talk today is, you know – I mean, D'Amico found a way when asked

05:26about Christian Kirk in a big game he had.

05:29You can't talk about Christian Kirk without talking about C.J. Stroud now.

05:32C.J. Stroud did this, this, and that.

05:34Which is – which I'm not saying is false.

05:37It's definitely true.

05:38But the effort is there for them to handle C.J. with kid gloves and for them to be really careful

05:45of what they say because they don't want him to go into – you know, to go into a bad spot.

05:51They're trying to – which is the right thing to do.

05:53You've got a game next week.

05:54You've got a monster game next week.

05:55And so they're trying to prop him up and handle him with kid gloves.

05:59That's very telling of the situation.

06:02All right, our girl Mel, Melissa, where are you at?

06:05Are you thinking about C.J. or are you thinking about this defense?

06:09Well, hey, boys.

06:11I'm back.

06:14I know you guys miss me.

06:15But I want to – I'm really concerned about our quarterback.

06:21And like Clint said, they handle him with so much care.

06:24You're like walking on eggshells around him about, you know, talking – you don't want

06:29to get him upset or rattled or anything because he already has a mentally weak – mental – he

06:35has a mental issue.

06:36I think he's weak.

06:37I think he's emotionally fragile.

06:39I think he gets rattled under pressure.

06:41He doesn't deserve $200 million, you know, as a quarterback.

06:46He doesn't have ice in his veins.

06:47He may deserve something like a Daniel Jones contract or a Sam Darnold contract, but nothing

06:53crazy because he's not worth it.

06:56The defense saved him last night.

06:58Melissa, you sound like you're out on C.J.

07:00You sound like you're out on C.J.

07:01I am because he really got my blood pressure going last night.

07:06And so it was like, you're going to lose this game for us.

07:10Get your head out your – I mean, sorry.

07:12You can say ass.

07:13You can say ass.

07:14Okay.

07:15And so, yeah, that's where I'm at with this.

07:18And I just feel like our defense, we got to invest all the money in Will Anderson and

07:22keep this defense together because that's what's really getting us to where we need to be.

07:27And I miss you guys.

07:28All right.

07:29We miss you too.

07:29That's Melissa, the third –

07:31Well, hey, boy.

07:32That was close.

07:32The third – yeah, that was close.

07:34First start, I thought it was Laura.

07:36I mean, we – I mean, you know, Laura's been around a while.

07:40She ain't doing no sexy traffic without a sponsor.

07:43I think we may be able to get Mel for a year without a sponsor.

07:47Do it, lady.

07:48That's the third lady of the drive right there.

07:52I think we can get Mel.

07:53Get her in there?

07:54I want to get a compete.

07:56Well, you know the game.

07:57You know the game.

07:57We all did it.

07:58Hell, I did radio for three years without making a dollar just to get in, man.

08:02Just to get –

08:03I want to have a compete.

08:04I want to have a Laura off between Laura and Mel.

08:07Well, Laura ain't trying to work.

08:08I mean, Laura ain't trying to work without a sponsor.

08:10She ain't trying to do that.

08:11So, I just think, Mel, that was close.

08:13I thought that was Tyler playing the drop.

08:15No, that's fair.

08:16The early – well, hell, yeah.

08:18She was on it.

08:19She was on it.

08:20All right, Marvin, where are you at?

08:21Your thoughts on this defense, your defense and the way they played,

08:24or your quarterback and the way he played?

08:26A little bit of both, guys.

08:27Hey, I'm down here, Matt O'Guard.

08:28I appreciate it.

08:29It was a good talk already.

08:30Hey, you know, it's like I said, and Clint, you said –

08:33we were saying it last night, happy feet, and, you know,

08:36just too big for the moment and do, but it's just – he's not that quick.

08:42He's not – you know, Roger got the ball out quick.

08:45Everybody worried about that.

08:46But, you know, it's just the fact that he just was struggling with just the moment.

08:52I felt like, you know, and I was like, man, we got the best defense of all time

08:56for those of us that go back to the, you know, Ham and Lambert and Donnie Shell

09:00and where we matched them with Brazil and Bingham and Stemmerk.

09:03I'm like, come on, man.

09:04We don't blow this thing.

09:07Come on.

09:07You know, we got to hang in here, you know,

09:09because you could do something that could cause them to get a score that turns.

09:14Here it is late.

09:14It's still close.

09:16I mean, to me, they had the best road.

09:20The road they've got to get to this reach.

09:23This is like the revenge tour that we can get to get some payback

09:26on some of these teams that have honored us for years, the Bills, the Steelers.

09:30Come on, man.

09:30Let's do it.

09:31But I don't know.

09:33Maybe they need to, you know, Tuve says five-hour energy works for him.

09:37Maybe you can feed him a can of amber-crombie tuna,

09:40and let's get him going with some local honey and get him that five-hour energy

09:45and a Red Bull to spit it out.

09:47And let's go, man, to get him going.

09:50I mean, he played last night like the interview is kind of slow, a little bit, methodical.

09:55And that's okay.

09:56We want to put attention to detail, guys, but dang, come on, man.

09:59You know what I'm saying?

10:01I appreciate you.

10:01I can hear you say, too, all day, Marvin.

10:03Call any damn time, Marvin.

10:05Let's hold it up.

10:06Finish this off Southside Isle.

10:08Are you thinking about the Texans' defense more?

10:11Are you thinking about the quarterback?

10:14Hey, shout out by Texas.

10:16Let me put this on the list.

10:17Damn it, Al.

10:20Damn it, man.

10:21I'm trying to finish on Al.

10:23You think Al's in the basement, or you think it's a cricket phone?

10:26I don't know.

10:26Hey, check, let me bring it back.

10:28I'm not condoning the damn thing.

10:31Damn it.

10:32Al was bringing a fire, too, man.

10:34We got to get – get that fixed.

10:35I'm changing – by the way, I'm putting in –

10:37I'm following the paperwork to change Southside Al's name.

10:40Why?

10:41That's O-line Al.

10:43Hey, I mean –

10:44Oh, have you met him?

10:45Oh, post-game show.

10:46Oh, I haven't met Al yet.

10:47I mean, he's been – that O-line playing the way it played last night?

10:50That's Southside Al.

10:50Hey, Southside Al been on it, Chief.

10:52Let's get out, because Al kicked it off with –

10:55Run.

10:55I don't condone.

10:56What the hell was he about to say?

10:57We love Al.

11:00We're out in your house, Al.

11:01When the O-line was bad, Al was like, I don't give a damn about nothing.

11:05This O-line got to tighten up.

11:06They got to figure out this O-line.

11:07They started coming around.

11:08He said, I'm telling y'all.

11:09Hey, Clint.

11:10I'm telling y'all.

11:10And now that they went out there and lights out,

11:13hey, there's nobody happier in the city of Houston about that run game

11:16than them O-linemen put up last night to Southside Al.

11:18Oh, Al.

11:19I mean, I don't know if he's going to sign off on it, man,

11:22but I think O-line Al has got a nice ring to it.
