Does the future look bright for the Houston Texans in 2024 · The Jake Wimberly Podcast

  Chris, I'm asking about the Houston Texans Jamiko Ryans and what they're doing.
• 0:04
  It looks like they are really I mean, the momentum that that organization has
• 0:09
  looks extremely strong. And you know behind obviously with CJ. Stroud and what
• 0:14
  he has turned into really quickly as their quarterback, that the future looks extremely
• 0:17
  bright for the Houston Texans. I agree. I think the first thing is
• 0:23
  seems like a much needed culture adjustment with Dimico, who's kind of going back
• 0:29
  home for them because he was one of theirs and he's just really clicked with
• 0:35
  the players and everything. And look at certainly they got talent led by the
• 0:39
  quarterback, as you've alluded to, but if you look at that roster,
• 0:44
  I mean, the quarterback was the difference last year. I mean you look
• 0:47
  at him and you say, man, how'd they get there? I Mean
• 0:49
  I watched the games and I'm like, man, the complete package was better
• 0:54
  than the individual parts. And so my thing is, Okay, they've gotten
• 0:58
  a little bit better and so talent wise in this offseason, and you're alluding
• 1:02
  to that, So how much better will they get? Well, you know,
• 1:03
  I think potentially, but we don't know. We don't know about injuries,
• 1:08
  and we don't know how things are going to change, how people are
• 1:11
  going to play CG. Straut differently. They're going to have a better feel
• 1:15
  for them, They're going to be gunning for them a little bit more.
• 1:19
  Now there's an expectation level two. I mean, they were as big of
• 1:23
  a jump from expectation to reality as anybody last year. Now the expectation is
• 1:30
  win the division next year again, and oh, by the way, maybe
• 1:34
  you know, go further in the playoffs. Well you know what that means,
• 1:37
  right, So if you go ahead and you win ten games and you
• 1:40
  make the playoffs and you lose for then that's okay. Well you're not meeting
• 1:42
  it. So expectations are higher. So they're going to be different. And
• 1:47
  I think the division is you know, you can you can have some success
• 1:51
  there. But Indianapolis maybe they make a jump if they get healthy at quarterback
• 1:56
  with Anthony Richardson. The Tennessee's got a little ways scope. Jacksonville had a
• 2:00
  little bit of a collapse. How will they respond? Uh? I think
• 2:02
  I think those three teams are really good and and you've got Tennessee that's probably
• 2:07
  bringing up the rear. Make sure to find him on exit Landry Football,
