| 0:00.0 | Sean and the Texans are a great football team. |
| 0:03.0 | They have a lot of great talent around him, and he makes a lot of big plays and big games. And so I kind of, I think I said something to him the last year at the end of the game, and that we're going to have these battles for a long time. And we're two opponents in the same division, I mean, same conference at the AFC, so I'm sure I'll play a lot of games against them. |
| 0:27.2 | Yeah, does it become a rivalry, though, until the Texans start actually winning some of the big games? The Texans did win last year during the regular season, but the loss in the postseason, |
| 0:32.9 | 24-0 lead, just obliterated by the Chiefs. But as we try to find the next Tom Brady and |
| 0:39.1 | Peyton Manning matchup, Chris, the possibility of Sean Watson and Patrick Mahomes. Really, between |
| 0:46.4 | that one and Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson, I think one of those two is going to become it. |
| 0:52.2 | Yeah, I do too. I think if you made me bet, you know, I like the way the Ravens team is set up right now for |
| 1:00.6 | Lamar Jackson. |
| 1:02.2 | But I think, you know, right now you, I think Deshaun Watson is a better quarterback |
| 1:06.1 | to Lamar Jackson. |
| 1:07.2 | And plus with the weapons they got around him a little bit there, like that to me is more the traditional Brady Manning matchup where it would be like, hey, I'm going to answer, you're going to answer, I'm going to answer. And also when we look back, we're like, this is amazing. It's 28 all. And Brady and Manning are on their game. And I think Watson and Mahomes can deliver that a little bit. That game was on TV last night, sitting there watching it again last night. Man, 21 nothing. Texans driving down. You're going, uh-oh, the chiefs are in deep crap. It's about to be fourth and one. They're going to go for it and probably score another touchdown. They end up not going for it, kick the field goal and the rest of history, as you know. But I think this has a chance to be that rivalry, Mike. |
| 1:45.3 | One of the key ingredients is the rest of history, as you know. But I think this has a chance to be that rivalry, Mike. |
| 1:49.6 | One of the key ingredients is the teams have to meet in the playoffs in a regular basis. |
| 1:52.2 | The Ravens are going to have a hard time dominating their division. |
| 1:55.0 | The Texans are going to have a hard time dominating their division. |
| 1:58.9 | But with seven playoff spots now in the conference, |
| 2:10.4 | you have a greater likelihood that the Texans or the Ravens or both get in every year and cross paths with the Chiefs, who by all appearances, will be there every year as long as Patrick Bahams is on the team and healthy. |
| 2:15.5 | And let's talk about the number one team in our PFT preseason power rankings. |
| 2:18.8 | We have previewed every team in the NFL through that template. |
| 2:22.5 | And oh, by the way, Thursday night, it will be Texans and Chiefs on NBC. |
| 2:26.4 | Pregame starts at 7 p.m. Eastern kickoff at 8.20 p.m. Eastern. |
| 2:34.5 | The Kansas City Chiefs, look, and every year, the defending Super Bowl champion, I always put them at number one. |
