Okay, you ripped up victory out of the jaws of defeat man Okay, this is on you Okay, you guys go out there and you do everything that we ask you to do you play with effort you play with finish Okay, and you play with violence. I appreciate every one of you day. Congratulations to you when we win It's cuz you guys went out there and one That's called Mary football, baby. That's how you finish out a game right there So proud of everybody here. Let's get back in tomorrow. Get ready for Houston. Let's go family on three one two three From the bet mgm studio, we welcome you to the mike vapor show i'm mike keith It's a short week as we come back from monday night football So sitting in for the head coach tonight is titan's radios head coach dave mcginnis coach mac Have you recovered from last night? No Have not and don't want to for just a little while and i gave myself a little more than 48 hours for that one Fabulous fabulous feeling that game was like nothing we have ever seen Really like nothing vnfl has ever seen no team has been down 14 in the final three minutes and then won In regulation it was incredibly odd It was a 13 13 game with just over six minutes to go The titans are going to get the ball back a fumbled punt allows The miami dolphins to score a touchdown in two plays in just seven yards and then a fumbled pitch It allows miami to score two plays 12 yards and suddenly 4 34 remains in the game The titans are behind 27 to 13 after playing so hard for so long They've given away the chance to win this game. I just told you had recovered. You just I just relived it again That you know what a marvelous breakdown on it and and the titans did everything they wanted to do early on in that ball game I mean they they drug them through the mud They pulled them into the phone booth and they were trading punches with them and then they let them out They let them out And then they regrouped and brought it back in all right. So the titans get the ball With 4 34 remaining trailing by 14 points. Let's take a look at the mic variable six pack Presented by seat geek Here's a big play on second and 15 With 308 remaining the titans find a way to come back as will levis goes to taijai spirits See it coach. Well, this is very well set up. It's it's a screen very well set up But what happens was you're getting you're getting a lot of pressure But the timing of this has to be just about right He layers the ball over the top of everybody and then taijai spirits is electric with the ball in his hand Just get the ball to him. Let him get out in the open field So the titans get to the 34 yard line two plays later. They have second and two at the 26 Nick west brookakine who had two catches for 28 yards has a catch for 23 And again, this is a very well conceived layered route and the thing that's going on here with this throw Is as the throw look look at the look at the space. He's got two underneath one over the top He layers it right on top of it with great touch. I mean, we'll levis We're watching him grow before our eyes. This is a touch pass that was a big big throw Okay, so what you've seen you've seen two good completions at both times The receivers get out of bounds so the titans aren't using much clock 246 remaining when they have first and goal at the three And how about levis to the living legend? This to me is This is a little bit of an off look pass. This is a look away pass January hopkins knows exactly how to manipulate you get zone coverage What watch the quarterback he manipulates the pocket, but his eyes are downfield and then de hop If you play zone defense against de hop, he's going to be open You said he's seen everything. He knows what to do. Well, we saw something there We've not seen before and that was the two point play A two point play was very well conceived. It was play action and again You know when as a defense when your back your heels are on the goal line And you're playing somebody that's got a run pass combination for a two point play It's really hard to cover that that thing was so wide open It was so wide open. It was scary because you're always afraid you'll pull the string on it They didn't the titans choose to go for two down 27 to 19 because analytics say That you have a better chance to convert that one and to win the game And so they played the math. They get it to 27 to 21 And then miami is unable to move the ball when they get it back And here go the titans down by six Let us to chig akakwa. Yeah, and chig does a really nice job here taking one step They said look at the blocks out in front of him and chig takes this one step And then he doesn't hesitate he takes off But the blocks out in front of him by the lineman and the and the receivers is really really good Mike, but chig steps back and then immediately goes vertical The titans will end up scoring in just 51 seconds And it's going to be derrick henry And derrick henry didn't have a big night But the veteran knows how to find the end zone at the big moment Yeah, as soon as they hand it off to the king here and you see everybody collapsed down inside He sticks his right foot in the ground a great cut You're not going to deny him the end zone when this type of thing happens This is great vision. He made one cut. They were stacked up inside touchdown for the king Derrick henry has rushed for two touchdowns in each of the last three games The extra point by nick folk is good after this henry touchdown 28 to 27 A minute 49 to go and i said to coach mack in the radio booth. Yes, you did Did they score too fast? How many of you at home who were still watching? Thought to yourself, did they score too fast now? You wouldn't say last night because you didn't want to jinx anybody How afraid were you that the titans had scored too fast? Never been afraid In a football game But you had a point because you've got an explosive offense out there But the way the titans have been putting a dome over what was happening with their passing game I sure wasn't afraid and I was a little concerned but not overly I'm the same way because I liked where the defense was at this point They had been getting after toa tongue of i loa all night long Here's how they end it herald landry with a tremendous pass rush He finishes with three sacks and he finishes the job Well, first of all, look at the coverage downfield. It's very very good. And then then it's a game They collapse the cylinder to a stumbles because he has no where to throw it And then herald landry cleans him up and I just about jumped out of the booth on this Titans had five sacks overall arden key had a sack Jaleel johnson had a sack and a forced fumble and herald landry with three sacks And that now gives him eight and a half on the year He trails denico autry by just a half sack Very possible the titans are going to end up with two guys with double digit sacks this year in A guy like landry who's coming back from acl surgery and a guy like denico autry who blocked a kick again last night And just doesn't seem to get any older miraculous and he's he's just he's just a gamer This guy's a true professional in every sense of the word I'm so happy that he came here and i'm also so happy that he's an integral part of what we're doing So much talk about will live us today and the way he played first 300-yard passing game ever for a rookie on Monday night football epic comeback win But he has help Particularly in the person of deandre hopkins when we come back The variable strainer will be where coach dave mcginnis will show us Why deandre hopkins is so special and why will live us has so much confidence in him stay tuned for more of the mike verbal show The mike verbal show presented by seat geek from right here in the bet mgm studio Coach mike verbal likes dave mcginnis so much. He lets him host his show when he's not able to be here He also lets him use the variable strainer There we go. Okay. So what we're looking at here late first half Game tied at seven and you're looking at will live us to deandre hopkins show us how this is going to work I can't wait to do this. Okay. I really can't all right first of all We're going to go here with the free hand right here is our focus right now to begin look at That's howard up here on top of deandre hopkins de hop now is in a press situation and by press situation I'm talking about see it's how close that the corner is the corner is in a press. He's not no bail He's not going to move. He's in a press situation. So what's going to happen here Will levis is looking out there and say I got de hop in press That's where i'm going now as mike starts this thing. I want to ask him to stop it at a certain point Because he's good at this stop it mike Right now howard is in perfect perfect phase in phase means he's right up against the hip of the receiver He couldn't be in better phase. He's they're running right along right along the line He's doing a great job of staying with him. But this doesn't matter when you get de hop You get de hop in this type of situation I always like to circle again like to circle you got you got de hop in that situation Ball's going to him because even if he's covered throw it to him because the guy Is going to make a play on the ball. Let's go mike watch this it gets it gets down the field Look at where it stop it Back it up just a little bit back it up, please Stop now keep going stop it Don't take your hand off there. Well, we've got to show the other look before we go to break Okay, let's show from the end zone so people can really see how amazing this catch is now boss me around like you like to I love to okay go Now stop in a minute. You're still stopping again, please Here's what I want to see. Here's what I want to see back this back this back it up I want to see right here number 32 the 32. That's taijai spears of the taijai spears right here This pass protection is good, but watch taijai spears He's not only good with a ball in his hand. This guy is a complete football player Watch him chip the edge to build to build a little more time for this throw He's going to give van ginkle the business. Let's follow it all the way through before we have to go to break good go go go One handed catch one handed catch de hop perfect understands Nuance receiver. This is a hall of fame receiver when he's one on one throw it to him That's what happens mike when they throw it to hop seven for 124 last night. Great job by de andre hopkins and the titans as they win I've been asking the questions when we come back A kid will ask coach mack a question. That's next on the mike veraible show presented by seat geek From here in the bet mgm studio. Good job coach. Thanks mike geith Seat geek sponsors the mike veraible show from right here in the bet mgm studio We're glad to have you with us and time now For kids ask coach mack I think this is alaka, isn't it? Let's see. I am so excited. Hello coach mack. My name is alaka And i'm eight years old. My question is when you're watching a tape, how do you know if it's man-to-man defense? Or zone defense. That's a good question. How do you know when you watch a tape? If it's man-to-man defense or zone defense. Oh alaka. What a great great You've clearly been watching football with members of your family that understand football. What a great great question Here's the best way. Look at the safeties If there's a single safety in the middle of the field most of the time those corners are going to be in man-to-man If it's a split safety with safeties like this lined up deep Then it's going to be a zone defense So the first thing that you look at from a first glimpse from 30 000 feet is look and see where the safety is If he's in the middle of the field, it's normally going to be man-to-man if they're split It's zone. How long did it take you to learn all of that? Probably longer than it's going to take alaka to learn it because I'm not as smart as she is and I know I've met her She's but I mean learning all the coverages all the blitzes everything that went into calling defense How long did it take you to learn? I'm still learning. You really every year. Absolutely every year I talk to coaches every year to keep up with what's going on. You never quit learning about this game It's a simple game, but it's very detailed. So the truth is I never quit learning about it Even though you've been doing this you've been around the game for over 50 years dating back to your time as a player Something is always new Something always comes up as a way that you know, it's a ying and yang between an offense and a defense The offense will come up with something defense will come up with something to counteract it I love learning all that stuff in the offseason. I just learned something very interesting when we come back Time for the epic western spotlight That's next as you're on the mike variable show presented by seat geek from the bet mgm studio Stay with us for more Frank why check is one of the 10 most important people in the first 25 years of the tennessee titans And not just for the reasons that you may think Before the team had ever played a snap in this state in 1997 Frank became the organization's number one go-to guy in the nashville community He spoke in banquets appeared at ticketing events and did every single media appearance possible It was too much to ask of one player But frank why check did it and he did it all Frank's efforts to give a face and a personality to the tennessee oilers were unmatched And vitally important That off the field work laid the foundation for the amazing response to frank's spectacular on field play 60 plus catches and 600 plus yards receiving in five straight seasons three pro bowls clutch play after clutch play And of course That throw on the music city miracle Pitches it back to a wide check he throws it across the field the dice and he's got something Frank's remarkable athleticism allowed him to run right leap into the air And accurately throw a pass to his left over 30 yards Just crazy That backwards pass made him forever famous in nfl lower and frank liked that It would give him the chance to remind you that he had a perfect 158.3 career passer rating Frank played with a chip on his shoulder After being cut by washington in 1995 He feared being cut every season that fear always fueled him So did his philadelphia roots don't get better than this Perfect day on our family and friends It should put it all together in the wind today. It's all counts, baby And you heard those roots when he moved to a career in radio Because you never had to ask frank why check for his opinion ever If something bothered frank, he was happy to tell you about it And his takes were of the shoot first Ask questions later variety That's why his morning show on 104.5 the zone in nashville was so much fun to listen to This was franky This was also the guide that you got for 12 years on titans radio As his late broadcast partner mark howard used to say If I said what franky said i'd be fired But because it's franky No one cares And mark was right because frank was so much fun Frank why check's very best quality can only be described as a very special sweetness He loved very deeply his daughters His family and a close circle of friends that came from many places in his life But that sweetness also came out when he would encounter To borrow images from the gospel of matthew the least The last and the lost Frank why check gave of himself fully in these moments And created lasting memories for people who needed them the most If you had the pleasure to witness one you were blessed to see frank why checks sweetness When we lost frank this past weekend Our first thoughts went to his family Especially the ones that we came to know best his daughters and his brother teddy And in this heartbreaking moment We hope that they will remember how many people loved frank why check For whatever role that he played in their lives Even if they didn't know him personally Think about the hundreds of thousands of people that loved him I hope that frank why check knew that too I'm certain that he knows that now The Mike Frable show presented by seat geek continues from the vet mg of studio tem now for our Nissan keys to success Dave mcganis key number one Hey build on the momentum from Monday night's big victory. Well, that absolutely is what you have to do with a very young football team And they were put in a situation where they had to overcome not only the opponent They had to overcome themselves and they did that you can build on that as a head coach Those are things that resonate resonate very very deeply and you've got to build on that Mike The titans took a lot of the things that they did well in the lost indianapolis and built on them in that game as well Well, that that's it. It's extremely important to do. I mean, it's a learning experience The national football league is a weekly learning experience But when you are able to take the things that you've worked on and the things that you emphasize during the week And then make those come to life in a football game of that magnitude That's a huge growth for your team Key number two eliminate unforced errors Yes, oh, yes I mean you you have to eliminate unforced errors because the titans really the situation they put themselves in at the end of the game They put themselves in those that situation So you've got to be able you've got to be able to take those out take It's hard enough playing the opponent and it's it doubles it when you're playing yourself And you're playing your own errors So you've got to take those out of the game and those are things that you as a player Individually can control in the end the titans won the ball game in miami because they played complementary football Every unit contributed need that again against houston on sunday. Well, complementary football I think gets misconstrued sometimes and people think you know that that you have to you know Do exactly what your offense is doing as a defense or do exactly what you're spending it's you've got to help one another You got to help one another and at times you're going to have to pick one another up That's what complementary football is. We saw that throughout this game Each unit picked each other up. Good job coach. Thank you my nice fill in for the head coach tonight Look forward to having you with us on sunday titans and the texans nissan stadium kickoff set for 1202 We're on the air on titans radio with this guy right here at 11 a.m. Central on 1045 the zone at our great titans radio stations Thanks for watching.
