-- -- the Texans coming up on Sunday of course you can hear the game here on WGR. Our pregame coverage begins at 7 AM kickoff at one we'll find out more about the Texans by bringing in Andre -- Heisman Trophy winner now Texans radio analyst. Let down in Houston and joining us right now under its power and -- good morning how are you start. And they're great guys -- -- on this more. While we're doing well -- were doing well and I -- you know we're we're gonna talk about the Texans why there's six and one but you're probably not going to be surprised to know that our first question. We'll deal with Mario Williams. And I don't look at -- as you watched the Texans. But Mario has not had a good start to his -- career and there was a risk procedure had done last week he was talking about how he was injured he hasn't been very productive people are questioning his work ethic is passion does he not play hard every play. What did you think of Mario Williams the total picture when he was in Houston. Well. Mario had flashes or when he was here in Houston he had flat. That he was going to be. A fantastic player great player. -- numbers here at one point you know they were really off the chart and then you would have. A lot of them moments that you're going through in buffalo where you know there's always an injury here or there. And you wonder we actually just disappear in games are and that you -- water. What was what the future we're going to hold and you've got a new bit Nazis and bought it in the -- in the direction Texans were going to go there were. Put a lot in the -- agency review we had. -- familiar. Questions when he was here that you're going to the ball. -- funny now when you'd describe that to me. When I hear what you say about flashes and fantastic player and you look at his numbers nine sacks on the average a year and then you talk about he would disappear in games to me that would go and you are nobody your your your professional athlete. To me that would go -- The passion or the work ethic I guess more probably the work ethic is if you have that talent but it's not there all the time my guess is that means it's work ethic. Well yes. Are the type of player is that you know when that would make gains. The bigger the game that's what -- that's what he's gonna show up when you went east criticize. And challenge by even Bob McNair one point. That's when he's gonna show and then when that stuff out of -- also a little bit. -- may disappear for awhile and that's that's what you happened Mario. Obviously you guys the taxes down there having a phenomenal season and one of the reasons why they're probably not talking much about Mario Williams JJ watt. What I don't know what makes this guy the special player that he is right now. I think everything about it did make special forget about. On the field is -- solid solid human being who loves the game and plays with passion. And that's all the art is motor's always. Get to normal weight from the field that you still. The exact same way you do about it when he's on the field he can't help but gravitate toward. -- he talked about all the physical trait that he adds it's 65 to 95. The vertical jump that quick. That he in a sport is he just shouldn't be able to do this thing said he does with that body yet. Speed and you're out. Stop it mr. double team and -- double teams we can't get to the pastor I -- averages. A yeah. Pass deflection pretty much every game this season and -- some multiple games where apple bunch. Is just phenomenal and the guy is something that. That are having that are on the game along our I've never seen before. I think what's amazing to me Andrei is you know he's so good so I'm guessing teams are doubling him tripling and so -- and he's still. Finding a way to get sacks and make place. You know when he got on it to me you'll get the double -- by the guards tackle and you have a backcourt right in the try to chip him as well. And somehow -- it still makes supply. The plate goes away from all the way across to the other side the formation yet did you make the play from behind. Course sometimes -- for a simple -- down there on the field. He loves the game. L that he loves you can -- just the way he plays in and not -- -- up every week. Underwear -- Texans radio analyst are you know also about quarterbacking title what you're seeing from that shop this season. Consistency I mean he's -- about it. Came back from an injury that you know a lot of people weren't expecting them to recover fully armed and he's played even better than he has -- higher. Careers taking care of the football this year. And spread the ball or like that's where defense is really frustrated when they played attacked and is who when he's getting the ball multiple receivers. -- drive you never know which what you're going to be yet and -- as full command of what. What they do offensively. And it shows. This season that he's at that our nation to come back to. For a number of years -- play makers around him and he knows all I gotta do is distribute the football take care of it and and they are gonna -- So it isn't just. Andre Johnson and -- and we know that Owen Daniels I should I should throw him in there as well they got they got more weapons than just both in the passing game. They really do army Andre on a quiet cease. And until last week break out -- not catch performance yet. Two weeks ago rather than it was -- -- week. These are relatively quiet there's a game again where at one can't start the week before that he had three catches. Does not Andre being forced it's the ball despite its way to. Everybody Kevin Walters. That the polling data that you mentioned are areas plots are out of the pact goes well it's been eight. Avery a lot actually backs -- -- kept the ball well a lot of the packed field. And not even change -- that pullback last IBM. Back whatever you wanna call it. He's getting his hands on the football -- so that it it's really hard -- -- a one got a soccer ball. Under a big picture now I mean they have the best record in the NCA no three in the Houston Chronicle online this week. You know talk about can they do enough to get home field advantage and get the top seed. How high are the expectations down there how many people are talking about -- horrible. Well they lost under. That if it Andre there -- well it was the last question. Oh yeah we lost a well these things happen. Andre ware joining us Houston Texans radio analyst again we'll talk more about the matchup as the week goes on but -- -- about Mario -- may -- Mario is in that place now. Where he's been challenged. He's been criticized he brought up the owner even call about one time Bob and we'll circle Mario is deathly and that -- -- been challenged -- criticized. So we'll see if this is a point where he stepped his game up answers the challenge and brings his game up to the point where it has an impact on the bills.
