1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: You're listening to the best of the Fan Morning show 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,199 Speaker 1: on ninety three five and one oh seven five the fan. 3 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,319 Speaker 2: Siakam drives it, pulls up twenty feet away, tie ball game, 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 2: five seconds to play. Here comes along three. It's an airball, 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 2: rebounded by Siakam, and we go to overtime. We're down 6 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 2: to seventeen seconds left in the overtime as math and 7 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 2: drives slips inside of Gilchis Alexander and scores from the 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: dotted half circle. Both game tied with nine seconds to go, 9 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: shot clock off. Oklahoma said he missed a chance to 10 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 2: tie at the end of regulation. Here comes Gilgas. Alexander 11 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: rolls it off the rim, tipped out to the wing. 12 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 2: Homdrin can't get the shot off before time expires. Three 13 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 2: forty two left in the overtime. He got into the lane, 14 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: this time his left hand betrayed him. Rebound. Topping gets 15 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,959 Speaker 2: three on one to the other end, top of to Siakam, 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: back to Toppin, who caught it. 17 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: And bucking right in front. 18 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: Here's Topping into the fore court, attacking immediately down the 19 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: left side. He lays it in with the left hand. 20 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: He has scored twenty. The Pacers within four and now 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 2: on the inbound what do we have the thunder called 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: the timeout. They just about turned. 23 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 3: It over and back forth. 24 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: But the ruling on the floor is that Oklahoma City 25 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 2: called the time out. That was e turn over. The 26 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 2: only question is one of the time out was called first? 27 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: Well, were you giving an explanation for your no timeout 28 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: or the one that went Obe. 29 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 4: Caught the steel both of those plays at any point 30 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 4: the game. 31 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 5: I'm not talking about the refs. 32 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 2: If I talk about the refs, I'll get fined an 33 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: exorbitant amount of money. 34 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 3: Only think missing was no disrespect to rats. Good Friday 35 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 3: morning to you. We are closing out the week right here. 36 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 3: It'll be us three once again, Kevin Bowen, James Boyd 37 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: and Mark Dyked And James asked you a few weeks 38 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 3: ago when the last time you hooped was you might 39 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 3: need to board the plane for some point guard minutes 40 00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: coming up on this road trip. 41 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, this is getting real, bleak man. I know I 42 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 6: made the joke about Russell Westbrook weeks ago and I'm 43 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 6: not even bringing that up again. But just the lack 44 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 6: of bodies they have at that position when it comes 45 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 6: to Andrew Nimhar going down last night with a left 46 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 6: shoulder injury. Rick Carlisle didn't have an update after the 47 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 6: game so that he'll get evaluated more today, but said 48 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 6: something along the lines of this could be a big 49 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 6: test for us, a big challenge for us in the 50 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 6: absence of Aaron I'm sorry, not Aarony Smith, but Andrew Nimhart. 51 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 6: So tough go. 52 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is an understatement. So we'll recap everything, get 53 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 3: you set for of course, Week eight in the NFL. 54 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: I don't think a whole lot of Friday injury debates 55 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 3: for the Colts, but we'll chat about that and look 56 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: ahead to the four to twenty five matchup between Colts 57 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 3: and Titans coming up on Sunday. But let's go back 58 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: to last night, and certainly, you know, there's a lot 59 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 3: that I thought to myself, boy, different years, same old Pacers, 60 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 3: just gutty, gritty as hell, taking every punch, punching back 61 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: time and time again. And reminded to myself of as 62 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: much as we bitch and moan about the fan dual 63 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: Ballely TV subscription, they should give us heart medication to 64 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 3: go with it. When you're having to watch this Pacers team. 65 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 3: Matherin Siakam incredible. I actually think Taylor Peter's got a 66 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 3: little game to him. I don't know if the box 67 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: score showed that last night, but damn man, I as 68 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 3: much as like I want to celebrate some of that stuff, James, 69 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 3: I just can't get over where they're at from a 70 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 3: health standpoint and point guard I mean, the biggest news 71 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: item of the night is Andrew Nemhard and whatever injury 72 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 3: state he's in. I mean, you are beyond scrambling mode. 73 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 3: I don't even know what the rules allow you to do, Like, 74 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 3: can you bring campaign back today? 75 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 6: Honestly, I feel like Tony used to be a better 76 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 6: person asked that question because he's all over that, you know, 77 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 6: when it comes to contract situations and different rules and stipulations, 78 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 6: and the NBA I think is more complicated than the 79 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 6: NFL in that regard. But yes, Kevin, I think you 80 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 6: have to kind of revisit all of the options. 81 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. So again, Andrew Nemhard left. I guess he really 82 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 3: never left the game per se with an obvious injury. 83 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: It looked like he did get hurt at one point 84 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: in the first half. Guardian Jay Gills with Alexander and 85 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 3: then he stayed in through the entire first half and 86 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: then was ruled out at the start of the third quarter. 87 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 3: And you had Ben Sheppard giving point guard minutes then. 88 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 3: And you know, one thing that was as much as 89 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 3: the grit in the guttiness James was so Pacers like 90 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 3: from previous years. The one thing that was not was 91 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 3: the beautiful offensive flow that we're used to. I mean, 92 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,239 Speaker 3: for those who watched the game last night, the Pacers scored, 93 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: but they scored because Benedict Matherin and Pascal Siakam are 94 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 3: beyond gifted as one on one players. They only had 95 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: nineteen assist in regulation. For those that maybe that number 96 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: doesn't resonate, that would have been their second fewest in 97 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 3: any game last season. So they were a one on 98 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 3: one basketball team for the most part. The flow with 99 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 3: the lack of point guards certainly is going to be 100 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 3: a question until they get healthy and TJ mcconnald's not 101 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 3: going to be back for at least a couple of weeks, 102 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 3: and obviously we'll await the status on Andrew Emhard. 103 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, and I mean we even talk about it there 104 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 6: in the first few minutes. But also SGA, Shay Gilz 105 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 6: Alexander dropped fifty five with twenty six free throws, a 106 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 6: career high in both categories for him. I know when 107 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 6: he walked off the floor last night, he got booed mercilessly, 108 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 6: because if you're a Thunder fan, you love what he's doing. 109 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 6: If you're a Pacers fan, you're like, really, I got 110 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 6: to deal with this again after just seeing it in 111 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 6: the finals four months ago. And it's a weird brand 112 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 6: of basketball. It is special. I have to admit that 113 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 6: he time he dropped fifty five, Yes, but man, that 114 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 6: was such a weird game. So when Rick Carlisle wentz, 115 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 6: I will not go there because I will lose money, 116 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 6: I was like, I understand because they're not just the 117 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 6: SGA stuff, but just some of the calls. Obviously, the 118 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 6: timeout slash Obi stole it moment was a big one 119 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 6: because when that happened, Oh boy, Kevin, I was thinking, oh, 120 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 6: here come these papers, ag Hey, can I make a 121 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 6: PSA announce I don't want to grandstand too often. Here 122 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 6: on one to save them by the fan. But to 123 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 6: the fans who were leaving early without small children, I'm like, 124 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 6: what are we doing trying to beat the traffic or something. 125 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 5: I get it. 126 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 6: If you have to work the next day, responsibilities whatnot? 127 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 6: Opening night? You got to you gotta stay committed to that. 128 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 6: You gotta stay till the end. You had people. I 129 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 6: saw people who got it by their seats after I 130 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 6: want to say, towards the end of the first in 131 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 6: regulation and we're getting ready to leave, pacers making interesting 132 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 6: at the ends, Pascal Si document's a jumper. All of 133 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 6: a sudden, people start waving back down to their seats. 134 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 6: Stick with this team. Have you learned nothing? 135 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think Opening Night that's a big no no. 136 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 3: Come on now, buzzer should go off if you're trying 137 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 3: to walk out. 138 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 6: I was different here. Let's live up to a reputation. 139 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 3: Of the arena. 140 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 7: It did look like almost like a preseason game attendance 141 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 7: wise near the end of like what happened. 142 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 6: I know a lot of people left early, but man, 143 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 6: it was loud. You can tell just how much it 144 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 6: meant to that crowd. And I would say, in particular, 145 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 6: Bendic Matherin, he was going at lou Door. They grew 146 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 6: up together. He was talking to talk walking the walk. 147 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 6: Oh boy, I'll tell you what. He might drive you 148 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 6: crazy in some moments. But that dude is talented. 149 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't know how you can say 150 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 3: enough good things about him and Siakam for what they did. 151 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: I hate to even bring this up because I thought 152 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 3: the end of the game sequences. Both Siakam and him 153 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 3: made very tough Shotsam at the end of regulation there 154 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: over Chet and then mathering at the end of overtime 155 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 3: to really force it into a second overtime. The one 156 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 3: possession I would like to have back was Pacers down 157 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 3: one about twenty seconds to go in regulation. Siakam gets 158 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 3: Chet holmegrin on him the first time. Oh yes, preach, 159 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: and I thought he settled immediately for the three. Yes, 160 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 3: there was still like six seven left. And I don't 161 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: say six to seven as that joke that all the 162 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 3: young kids do, but there was a little bit of 163 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 3: time you got. 164 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 5: All my kids. 165 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm gonna stop doing that, please, I can't take 166 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 7: it anymore. 167 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 3: And you walk past an eleven year old right now 168 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: and not see that going on that it means nothing. 169 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 7: It means nothing, and it's not funny. 170 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 6: The jokes are getting stupider, and that's why my one 171 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 6: time I'll sound really old on the airwaves but yeah, 172 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 6: I'm getting to that point. 173 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, we all probably should get off our lawn here 174 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 3: if we want to get to the next generation. But 175 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: that one possession, I thought, oh, you're settling against Chet, 176 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 3: like just see if he can stay on his feet. 177 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: And obviously the second possession you got him on skates 178 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 3: and boom, you were able to get him on the 179 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: ground and hit the sixteen eighteen foot pull up there. 180 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 3: That's maybe the one. You know, if Siakam's able to 181 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 3: work a little bit more and again test Chet, then 182 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: you're up one with whatever twelve seconds to go. And 183 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 3: you know, I thought Jenny Busik did a great job 184 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 3: and throwing those doubles at Shay when the game was 185 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 3: on the line there. So again it's probably a small gripe, 186 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 3: but for the most part, you just it's a hat 187 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 3: tip once again to the incredible effort. It is absurd 188 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 3: how injured they are at point guard. Shout out to 189 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: Jack Doyle for giving us Jameson Brewer yesterday. I don't 190 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 3: know if Jamison Brewer still has his shoes that he 191 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 3: gave to Jack Doyle, or maybe Jack Doyle can give 192 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 3: him back to Jameson Brewer because the Pacers need point 193 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: guard help, and they need a starting center that doesn't fail. 194 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 3: Because Isaiah Jackson fouls more than I eat doritos in 195 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 3: the weekend four thousand, eight minutes. 196 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, that was That was rough man. That's his mom Oh, 197 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 6: I mean, like, okay, but here's a stat for you. 198 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,479 Speaker 6: That was crazy because I actually. 199 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 3: This guy had nine thousand, like thirty five minutes in 200 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 3: the preseason. 201 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 6: So I went through this because I had to work 202 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 6: this game for the athletic and Isaiah Jackson, Tony Bradley, 203 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 6: and Jay Huff combined for more thousand points last night, 204 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 6: eight fouls, seven points. Well, among your three centers that 205 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 6: you played. 206 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 3: And James, I think I said to you yesterday, give 207 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 3: me don't hack centers and rebound. Those are my two 208 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: before I even got to I think I asked for 209 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 3: Jay Huff to hit an open shot, which I believe 210 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 3: he did hit one three. But those are my first 211 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: two asks. Isaiah Jackson in eight minutes in rebound, Tony 212 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 3: Bradley ten minutes, zero rebounds. Yeah, like that's what they're 213 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: out there to do. 214 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 6: And so that no, I'm with you on that. That's 215 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 6: a bad looking but. 216 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,679 Speaker 3: The biggest story line unfortunate from last night is the 217 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 3: Andrew Nemhart injury and how long is he going to 218 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: be out and what does that do for a Pacer 219 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 3: team that I think has a brutal start to the schedule. 220 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 3: So again there's I'm not having fun. 221 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 6: Anymore, but Pacers basketball, this is not it, man. He 222 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 6: hates on the game one. I just hated to be 223 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 6: off the ledge. 224 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 3: Again. It's so much of the off the court. It's 225 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: so much of the injury situation at point guard at 226 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 3: least right now. So we'll continue to recap a whole 227 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 3: lot of that and get you set for a football Friday. 228 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: James Boyd through some trade targets at us up up 229 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 3: on the Athletic we will go over a few of those. 230 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: Try to get to that eighty Mitchell audio here in 231 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 3: a little bit and get your set for the final 232 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 3: practice of the week Colts in Titans here.

So 270 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 5: as the class president, I welcome everybody the graduation. I 271 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 5: then got up and gave like a six or seven 272 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 5: minute speech and then actually then got my diploma, so 273 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 5: I got my steps in that day. 274 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 3: He is Greg Gragshaw.

And Greg Gragstraw, you don't actually do you 278 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: have a far drive tonight? I know you're playing a 279 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 3: school that's very close to your home, but I don't 280 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 3: know if the game's at Shatard or more Asville. 281 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 5: They are the road teams, so I'm off to Moresville, 282 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 5: which isn't exactly a far drive either. So Shatada Morrisville 283 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 5: is our game of the week. And as I talked 284 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 5: about yesterday on which TV, you know, we are so 285 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 5: six A centric in terms of the teams we cover 286 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 5: in football and basketball. We can space it out, you 287 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 5: know a little bit more with having more dates to 288 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 5: work with. So this is kind of the one week 289 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 5: of the year that I get to see teams that 290 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 5: are four A, three A, et cetera. So we last 291 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: had Mooresville on TV. There was kind of a quirky 292 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 5: Week two where like all the Mick and Carmel was 293 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 5: on the road, So we did Moorsville and Danville one times. 294 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 5: First time in three years I've been to Mooresville. I 295 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 5: live a mile from Chatard High School, as do you 296 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 5: and we in the seven years we have been doing 297 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 5: television on my NDTV, this is the first time we've 298 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 5: got the Shatar Trojans on in football. 299 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 3: You might be hearing from some people there. I won't 300 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 3: drop any names on that because I could get in 301 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 3: trouble for that, but Chatard faithful might be reaching out 302 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 3: to you Rike for that. Do you have a mister 303 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 3: football favorite? No, boy, Maybe the Chatard people got to me. 304 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 5: It got to me immediately. There was like a three 305 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 5: second pause as the entire North Side Catholic community. Pat 306 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 5: Sullivan just snipped the ball line. He heard you say 307 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 5: cut and then no Stard and Bamore knock. 308 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 3: On your door after that comment right there. If you 309 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 3: miss all the Dary family, if you misheard Rake, do 310 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 3: we have a mister football favorite? 311 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 6: I got mine. 312 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 5: Mister has to be Miles McLaughlin has to be you know, 313 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 5: he is not going to be the highest level recruit 314 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 5: of this senior class. But again, given the the stratospheric 315 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 5: numbers he has put up, and given the fact that 316 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 5: likely he is going to pass what was thought to 317 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 5: be an unbreakable record from Charlie Spiegel, pretty sure his 318 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 5: name is already on the trophy. 319 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 6: That dude runs so much. I would honestly like to 320 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 6: know what his recovery is like as a high school athlete, Like, 321 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 6: is he getting to abstin salt, is he getting the ice, 322 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 6: you know, buckets around the ankles or something like that, 323 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 6: or is he just that tough? 324 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 5: Well, he runs a lot, I'm not sure why people 325 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 5: hit him, So it's just kind of doing like distant work, seemingly. 326 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 3: And they played all right, right Rake. 327 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 5: Correct, So as a three to a team they play 328 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 5: tonight and again give it the way the draw worked out. 329 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 5: You know, they have made at least the reason round 330 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 5: each of the last two years, and so I think 331 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 5: he is now in the vicinity of seven hundred yards 332 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 5: away from breaking that record. So in theory, he could 333 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 5: break it next week given the clip he has been on. 334 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 5: But you would assume that that if it doesn't happen 335 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 5: next week, likely of being Sexual Championship Week on November 336 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 5: the seventh. 337 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: He's on the call tonight Shatarda Moorsville. Again. For the 338 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: most part, it's just one A, two A, three A 339 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 3: and four A here as we get the sectional slate started. 340 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 3: He is the one, the only great rag star with 341 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 3: us here on the Payless Lickers hotline. Rake, when I 342 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: say to you, in a five months stretch, Lucas Oil 343 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 3: Stadium will play host to the Indiana Hoosiers and the 344 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: Big Ten Championship, the Indianapolis Colts and the AFC Championship, 345 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: and the Purdue boiler Makers in the National Championship for basketball. 346 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 5: You say what I say, it's possible. I say it's 347 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 5: absolutely possible. And amazingly, the thing that appears to be 348 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 5: the biggest lock of those three would be the Indiana 349 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 5: Hoosiers being in the Big Ten Championship game, which is 350 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 5: just stupefying. So I hope you guys. And when one 351 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 5: word gets used in a press conference, it tends to 352 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 5: be repeated like two or three times. So and Kevin, 353 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 5: you may have been the person that introduced cheater to 354 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 5: Shane Steiken's press conference on Wednesday, because that's what Indiana 355 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 5: sports are on right now. That may not feel that 356 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 5: way after last night and basically James was the backup 357 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 5: point guard for overtime number three for the Pacers last night, 358 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 5: but the fact that they made to the final game 359 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 5: of the NBA Finals Game seven. Indiana is number two 360 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 5: in the country, the Indianapolis Colts have the best record 361 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 5: in the National Football League, and Purdue is the consensus 362 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 5: number one team in the country for college hoops. That 363 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 5: that that's insane to be on that level of a 364 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 5: role and that's where we're at right now. 365 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 3: Like Chauncey Billups and the Hamptons sports. 366 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 5: Right ooh too soon. I don't know about that. That 367 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 5: too certain a little too Sion. 368 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys haven't liked any of my Billups jokes 369 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: in the last twenty four hours. 370 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 6: I mean that is that's the scariest wuss to be in. 371 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 5: Go ahead, go ahead and make the cutdown, Kevin, go 372 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 5: ahead and cut that out here by the way to 373 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 5: go rake. 374 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 6: When you look at I'll pivot a little bit to 375 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 6: the Colts here. When you look at what the Colts 376 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,479 Speaker 6: have been doing from a point differential standpoint, and then 377 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 6: you look at the Titans, who are on the opposite 378 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 6: end of the spectrum. What are you expecting Sundays? Is 379 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 6: this going to be another Colts dominant game or will 380 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 6: be see something weird because the NFL is weird. 381 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 5: That's what's been crazy about this cult schedule is that 382 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 5: you know they've been you don't even blow up the 383 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 5: teams that are the bad teams, and the Colts have 384 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 5: been so consistent. The Dolphins are garbage. Colts throttle them. 385 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 5: The Titans are garbage. The Colts spanked them. The Raiders stink, 386 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 5: the Colts embarrass them. And so the fact that we 387 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 5: have now seen this three times tells you that it's 388 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 5: not an anomaly that the Colts are going to be 389 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 5: ready to play. I think part of it, too, is 390 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 5: the Colts' style translates so well. You know, Daniel Jones 391 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 5: is not doing the flashy he's just doing everything so efficiently. 392 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 5: Jonathan Taylor just grinds out yards. That offensive line wears 393 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 5: you down. That skill set translates. And if you've also 394 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 5: got a pass rush that's been getting close to getting 395 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 5: home but not getting home, what normally helps that Playing 396 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 5: a rookie quarterback and playing a Tennessee team that is 397 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 5: not good in the first place, but now is a 398 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 5: beaten up football team. I think all those it's combined 399 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 5: for this to be I hope a bit of a 400 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 5: snoozer on Sunday afternoon. 401 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: Rak anything else on the slate besides tar Mooresville tonight 402 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 3: and of course Colts postgame show duties on Sunday. 403 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 5: A couple of college soccers tomorrow. But frankly, as I've 404 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 5: told people a lot this week, this is kind of 405 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 5: the last slow week for me because it gets crazy 406 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 5: next week and then once I get to November, you know, 407 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 5: I'll see my kids in December. I think at some 408 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 5: point in time, November and may have turned into my 409 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 5: two busiest months of the year. And my Google calendar 410 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 5: reflects that as of next weekend. 411 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: What is it just college bastball picking up in November 412 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 3: for you. 413 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 5: So it's a mixture of college basketball, high school basketball, 414 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 5: and then I slash we as an Is produced a 415 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 5: lot of conference championship stuff for Marrying, We produced a 416 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 5: lot of conference championship stuff for Horizon League. I tend 417 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 5: to be on the call of those things. And so 418 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 5: there's that monon Bell game that pops up on November 419 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 5: the fifteenth, there's a couple of high school state championships. 420 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 5: Can I break some news on the show this morning? 421 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 3: Sure? 422 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 5: Can we have a breaking new sounders that Kevin want 423 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 5: to make the cut sound again? 424 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 1: Breaking news from ninety three five and one oh seven 425 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: to five to the fan. 426 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 5: So I actually get to be on the television now 427 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 5: it's streaming, but I will be on the television call 428 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 5: of the Butler Wright State game on Friday afternoon, November 429 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 5: the twenty eighth for ESPN plus. 430 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 3: Hey, congrats brother some cool Friday.

Those are two guys you're looking at to 453 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 6: take the next leap or step in a year where 454 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 6: they're gonna get more opportunities with Al Halliburton in the lineup, 455 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 6: and I like what I saw from both of them. 456 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 3: Honestly, Yeah, they both shot making wise, both were huge late. 457 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 3: I know the stats won't indicate it, but I would 458 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 3: like to see more Taylor Peter. I just I have 459 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 3: a little intrigued there. 460 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 6: I think he's got to be more decisive, which I 461 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 6: say that about severalokis, But I thought early on he 462 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 6: was a little hesitant, a little timid, and I thought 463 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 6: as the game went on, in credit to him, because 464 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 6: first game, right light whatever, it seemed like he got 465 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 6: more comfortable as the minutes went by. Because I thought 466 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 6: One of the best sequences of the game, besides when 467 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 6: we got to the overtimes, of course, was that Steely 468 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 6: got he pokes the ball away third quarter, I believe, 469 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 6: pokes the ball away, Obie Topping runs it down, Taylor 470 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 6: Peter relocate to the corner catching shoot three ball. Crowd 471 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 6: goes crazy. That to me felt like a Pacers play 472 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 6: by a guy who was, you know, trying to get 473 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 6: to a level where he can play their brand of basketball. 474 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 3: And that man started two games last year at Liberty, 475 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 3: like he was a bench player for Liberty, I know, 476 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: and now you're asking him to play an opening night 477 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 3: of an NBA game against the defending champs, Like I I, yes, 478 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 3: you know, more decisive. Certainly, I understand a little bit 479 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: of the hesitancy that he had, but he's much more 480 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 3: than just some stand still three point shooter, which I 481 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 3: kind of pegged him, you crazy. 482 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 6: I thought he was a little indecisive about shooting the ball, right, 483 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 6: And I'm like, yeah, I get it, but I would 484 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 6: imagine and I get yeah, it's tough, but I would 485 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 6: imagine Rick Carlile and Jenny Boutsk and you know, Lloyd 486 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 6: Pierce will like, hey, brother, we get all the other 487 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 6: stuff you can do. Shoot that dying. 488 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 3: Sure easier said than done, I think when Yeah, I 489 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 3: don't think he's got the reputation of not necessarily a 490 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 3: Ben Mathering type somebody along those lines. All right, let's 491 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 3: get you set here for Week eight in the NF 492 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 3: Mark Dakin wish weave again. 493 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 7: Let's the most exciting wherever we want to start their 494 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 7: most exciting of the eight. 495 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 6: Week eight slate not a very good slate, by the way. 496 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 3: I don't think it's a good slate at all. Mark. 497 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 3: I'll show some favoritism towards you. If Lamar Jackson's playing, 498 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 3: I'll go to your game. I'll go Ravens Bears. Are 499 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 3: the Bears somewhat interesting with four in a row? Are 500 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 3: the Ravens dead? Officially? Is Lamar Jackson going to play? 501 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 3: I'm struggling for entertainment value in the Week eight I'm 502 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 3: not gonna lie, but I'll go here. 503 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson's been limited all week. In practice, the Bears 504 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 7: have are the only team in the NFL They've scored 505 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 7: at least twenty one points in every game this season, 506 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 7: and the Ravens are one in five with their backs 507 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 7: against the Wall. So if Lamar doesn't play, oh boy, 508 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 7: oh boy, would it be Snoopotley over Cooper. 509 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 6: I believe, So I'm gonna go Giants Eagles because I 510 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 6: believe in the Giants beat the Eagles can this year. 511 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 3: They're already playing again. 512 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 6: Yes, so I need that Cam Skataboo, Jackson Dart. They're 513 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 6: both ridiculous individuals, but they're playing pretty good football. And 514 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 6: they spoiled the party last time against Saikwon, so can 515 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 6: you do it again? 516 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 7: Not only are they are they playing again, they're playing 517 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 7: for the second time in three weeks. 518 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 6: That is kind of crazy. 519 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was one of our Thursday night upsets. Chargers 520 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 3: all over the Vikings if you missed it last night. 521 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 7: The most exciting again, only two games this Sunday feature 522 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,479 Speaker 7: both teams with winning records, so it is a rough slate. 523 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 7: But looking forward to the most is Cowboys Broncos. You 524 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 7: want to talk about two teams that swing wildly in 525 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 7: different directions game to games, sometimes quarter to quarter. It's 526 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 7: these two teams. Bo Nicks and the Broncos looked dead 527 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 7: last week against the Giants until that insane fourth quarter, 528 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 7: and the Cowboys are doing Cowboys things where they're just inconsistent. 529 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 7: But I'm intrigued by Cowboys Broncos in Denver, and that's 530 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 7: one of the other four o'clock games. 531 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 3: Huh, outside of Colts and Titans. Okay, hardest game to pick, 532 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Houston hosting San Francisco the Texans 533 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 3: on a short week, traveling back from Seattle. They are 534 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 3: a two and a half point favorite. At some point. 535 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 3: All these forty nine er injuries have to catch up 536 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 3: to them, you would think. But then again, I'm like, 537 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 3: do I trust the Texans on a short week getting 538 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 3: points or having to cover two and a half. I 539 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 3: can go back and forth on that all day long. 540 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 3: So that, for me is one of the harder games 541 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,479 Speaker 3: to pick. Forty nine Ers five and two, Texans two 542 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 3: and four, Houston favored by two and a half. 543 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 6: I think Packers Steelers. I'm surprised we didn't choose one 544 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 6: of these as far as our most intriguing game. I 545 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 6: think that one is a hard one. Two and a 546 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 6: half point favorites for the Packers. Anytime the line is 547 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 6: that close, I'm just like, ugh, I don't know. They're 548 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 6: on the road as well, so that's something to consider. 549 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 6: So I think that's the one that gives me the most, like. 550 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 3: March went a meteor to hit the stadium. 551 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 7: To my heart, it's the hardest game for me because 552 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 7: I have to root for I think Aaron Rodgers to 553 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 7: beat the Packers, which is gross to think about. 554 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 6: That's why it's hard for me. 555 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 7: My hardest actually though, is Bears Ravens because the Bears 556 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 7: are six and a half point underdogs on the road 557 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 7: to the one in five Ravens Baltimore seasons on its 558 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 7: last legs. Lamar has been limited all week, like we 559 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 7: just said, so that spread is kind of insane when 560 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 7: you're looking at it. 561 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 6: That line has to be with Lamar in the line. 562 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 7: Yes, So that's why, honestly, if you are thinking Lamar Jackson, 563 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 7: who's been limited all week, is not going to play, 564 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 7: I would jump all over that six and a half 565 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 7: because if they get word that he's not playing, that 566 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 7: line is going to shrink drastically. So if you can 567 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 7: hop on Bears six and a half, I would take that. 568 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 7: But if he does play, I just don't know what 569 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 7: we're gonna get because Lamar is still is the one 570 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 7: hundred percent probably not, and the Ravens need to get 571 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 7: a win because otherwise they fall the one in six 572 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 7: and you really can only play with like one more 573 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 7: loss the rest of the season to have any shot 574 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 7: of making the playoffs and turning their season around. So 575 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 7: that's why it's hard for me. I would like to 576 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 7: trust the Bears, but I also know that the Ravens 577 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 7: have their backs against the wall, So I honestly don't 578 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 7: know which way to go with that game. But if 579 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 7: you can get Bears at six and a half to 580 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 7: go ahead and get it. 581 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 3: All these lines scare me. And like the one big 582 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 3: block window is full of touchdown favorites, full of them. 583 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 3: So if you feel any good feeling about the underdog, 584 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 3: you know, definitely ride that. I I gosh, I don't 585 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 3: even know if I feel confident in saying it. I 586 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 3: think the easiest game I'm gonna take the Steelers at 587 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,159 Speaker 3: home getting points. I think that's a bounce back for 588 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,199 Speaker 3: them after the Thursday night game on the road. The 589 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 3: Packers have kind of flirted with that four to one 590 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 3: on one start, So I'm again I'm struggling with confidence 591 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 3: about really anything maybe in my life, but definitely here 592 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 3: with these Week eight picks, So I will go Steelers 593 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 3: getting points at home two and a half. 594 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 7: I will co sign on that because that was mine 595 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 7: as well, Because you don't think Aaron Rodgers wants to 596 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 7: stick it to the Packers on national television. 597 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point. That makes me feel a 598 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 3: little better. Yeah, and he actually kind of looks decent again. Yeah, 599 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 3: DK Metcalf. 600 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 7: Has helped, But yeah, I would I would think that 601 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 7: that Steelers defense also has been given an agenda by 602 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers, like get Jordan Love, get him a lot. 603 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 7: This is my easiest game, right, Yes, Bengals, Jets, you 604 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 7: trust the Bengals? 605 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 6: Are you trusting the Jets? I very much trust the 606 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 6: Jets to do what the Jets do, stay and get up. 607 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: And also that's one of those touchdown ones, right is 608 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 3: right around seven, So you are trusting the Bengals to 609 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 3: cover I guess six and a half? 610 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 6: Official, Yes I am, because I know Joe Flacco is 611 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 6: going to throw that dying to a lot of different 612 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 6: a lot of different receivers. And I think you. 613 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 3: Think Woody Johnson's comments inspired Justin Field. 614 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 6: Oh my goodness, could you imagine being Justin Fields. I 615 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 6: would have told him, Woody Johnson, you're paying me thirty 616 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 6: million dollars guaranteed. Brother, I'm gonna go out there and 617 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 6: throw the ball in the dirt next time you see me, 618 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 6: and the check better be there on Tuesday. 619 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 7: But you talk, all the junkie wine on my bank 620 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 7: account is looking healthy. 621 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, And shout out to Justin Fields. I 622 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 6: get it. You're a Christian. You believe in God. He's like, oh, 623 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 6: you know, my faith come from the Lord. 624 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 7: Boy. 625 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 6: My faith would be reinvigorated in Jesus Christ as soon 626 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 6: as I saw my contract and my money. Nothing makes 627 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 6: me feel more inclined to, you know, believe in God. 628 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 6: And when I get paid, smite all these haters. 629 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 3: Just to remind everybody after that sermon. It is the 630 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 3: largest bye week in the NFL, So fantasy football lineup 631 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 3: probably would have been set last night. And I hope 632 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 3: you didn't play Justin Herbert or you know that vital 633 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 3: guy either, but six teams on a bye so you 634 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 3: could be scrambled a little bit with your fantasy lineups 635 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 3: coming up this weekend. We close out the week every 636 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 3: week during football season with the Voice of the Colts, 637 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 3: Matt Taylor.

How are we doing today? 654 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 3: We are swell. It's probably more of an MLB play 655 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 3: by play question than most, but hell, you've had to 656 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 3: work your way through a couple fourth quarters like this 657 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 3: this season. Do you have blowout content? 658 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 5: Yeah? You do? 659 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 8: I mean you you approach it differently. You turn it 660 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 8: more into a big picture talk show, you know, like 661 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 8: what does this win mean or what is you know, 662 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 8: you frame it into the context of how well are 663 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 8: we playing? Is this transferable? 664 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 5: What does the. 665 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 8: Immediate future of the season look like? You know, you 666 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 8: preview next week's games, so you know, you're you're not 667 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 8: as intensely breaking down every single movement of a play. 668 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 8: You're not, you know, breaking down the upcoming down and distance. 669 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 8: You know, you're talking to your analysts more like a 670 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 8: talk show, kind of like what you guys do, while 671 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 8: also staying within the framework of the game. Absolutely, but 672 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 8: it's kind of like, you know, it's kind of like 673 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 8: the fourth quarter of that last preseason game, you know 674 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 8: what I mean. You turn it into a talk show, 675 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 8: You make a conversation, you talk about, you know, how 676 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 8: how well guys are playing, and how transferable things are 677 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 8: for the regular season. So yeah, absolutely, there's there's a 678 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 8: difference between you know, how you handle play by play 679 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 8: in the fourth quarter in the final four minutes when 680 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 8: it's a one score game versus if it's a fourth 681 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 8: quarter blowout. There's no question about it. The dynamic certainly changes. 682 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 3: If I've ever asked you this, But do you have 683 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 3: any and I guess take the NFL, take the Super 684 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 3: Bowl out of it. I don't know, maybe even take 685 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 3: the NDY five hundred out of it. Do you have 686 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 3: a bucket at sporting event that you would love to call? 687 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 8: You know, I don't per se. I mean, I'm very 688 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 8: very happy, and I enjoy what I do. 689 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 5: I really do. 690 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 8: I mean, I think the NFL is just you know, 691 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 8: obviously it's it's it's the eight hundred pound gorilla, and 692 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 8: it's it's the biggest thing going. So I'm incredibly blessed 693 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 8: to be, you know, where I'm at and doing what 694 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 8: I'm doing.

I think 801 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 8: it's time to kind of recalibrate after a six to 802 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 8: one start. Just how special of a season this could 803 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:49,760 Speaker 8: be here for the Colts. 804 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 5: All right? 805 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 8: Since nineteen ninety six and one teams make the playoffs 806 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 8: eighty eight percent of the time, seven and one teams 807 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 8: make the postseason ninety six point five percent of the time. 808 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 8: All right, so let's keep this train rolling on Sunday 809 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,760 Speaker 8: because the analytics say, hey, you're seven to one, it's 810 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 8: pretty close to a darn shirt thing. You're gonna make 811 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 8: the postseason. We'll see if the Colts can. 812 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 5: Get it done. All right, let's talk red zone. 813 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 8: For the Colts, they've jumped all the way up to 814 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 8: eighth in the NFL so far in the red zone, 815 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 8: thanks in part the scoring touchdowns on fourteen of their 816 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 8: last fifteen red zone trips. Remember when people were griping 817 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 8: about the red zone like that was the that was 818 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 8: the one thing in the first three game. 819 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 6: That was Kevin Bowen. 820 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, hand raise over here. 821 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,959 Speaker 8: Yeah, like that was the one thing. People are like, Okay, 822 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 8: this is a good offense or scoring a lot of points, 823 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 8: but man, they'd be so much better inside the red zone. 824 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 8: And case in point, right in the first three games 825 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 8: of the season, they were seven for sixteen in weeks 826 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 8: one through three. That was forty three percent, which ranked 827 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 8: twenty six in the NFL. In just a month's time, 828 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:58,839 Speaker 8: they went from twenty six to eight. And they're even 829 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 8: better in goal to go situations. 830 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 5: All right. 831 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 8: Dating back to last year, the Colts have scored a 832 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 8: touchdown on each of their last twenty six. 833 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 5: Goal to go drives. 834 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 8: Again, they are twenty six for their last twenty six 835 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 8: goal to go drive scoring touchdowns. That's the second longest 836 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 8: streak this century. The record is twenty nine straight by 837 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 8: the twenty twenty two Arizona Cardinals. All Right, and I 838 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 8: love this guy because he's coming off the bench, being 839 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 8: brought up off the practice squad and he's delivering. 840 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 5: All right. 841 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,439 Speaker 8: He's been off the practice squad three straight weeks. Now 842 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 8: he's on the active roster. He's the primary running back 843 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 8: behind Jonathan Taylor. I'm talking about at Mir Abdullah in 844 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 8: year number eleven. Last week, an eighty one yard kickoff 845 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 8: return has set up the Colts first touchdown in the 846 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 8: second half. He's the NFL's active leader in kickoff returns 847 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 8: and kickoff return yardage. 848 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 5: But he's a lot more than just a football player. 849 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 5: I don't know if you guys saw. 850 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 8: This, but he's a football he's a movie buff. He 851 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,240 Speaker 8: loves the art form of cinema. In fact, he's appeared 852 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 8: in a lot of movies. He's appeared in a movie 853 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 8: called Hell on the Border in twenty nineteen. 854 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 5: He's appeared in a movie. 855 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 8: Called Monstrous in twenty twenty two, another flick called Hide 856 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 8: and Bleed in twenty twenty one. He's also appeared in 857 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 8: the film called Break the Cycle, and that's got some 858 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 8: high profile stuff in it. Man, some actors in that movie. 859 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 8: You've got guys like Juba Gooding Junior and Vivica A. 860 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 5: Fox. 861 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 8: He's also produced a short film called Joshua Tree. So 862 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 8: he's a really good conversation inside that cult locker room. 863 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 8: And he's a well rounded guy. He's got a lot 864 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 8: of culture, got a lot of cinema, and he loves 865 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 8: the arts as well. So a Mira boo, a sip 866 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 8: of the cat man, You're an interesting cat, all right. 867 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 8: Last one is the Tennessee Titans have fallen on tough times. 868 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 8: They started one in six in back to back seasons, 869 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 8: first time they've started one and six or worse in 870 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 8: consecutive years for the first time since nineteen two to 871 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 8: nineteen eighty four. And obviously they weren't the Tennessee Titans 872 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 8: back then. That's the Houston Oilers. 873 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 5: But it wasn't that long. 874 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 8: Ago where the Titans were like the team to beat. 875 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 5: They used to get the Colts. 876 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 8: They kind of fit. 877 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:13,760 Speaker 5: They were the top. 878 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 8: Seed in the AFC in twenty and twenty one, but 879 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:20,839 Speaker 8: since then fellas there combined seventeen and forty one. They've 880 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,439 Speaker 8: got the fewest wins in the NFL in that fan 881 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 8: and Tennessee is one of two teams this year, along 882 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 8: with the surprisingly inefficient Philadelphia Eagles, who are still five 883 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 8: and two, but the Titans at Eagles won of two 884 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 8: teams this year to be out gained in every single 885 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 8: game this year, and dating back to last year, the 886 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 8: Titans have allowed more touchdowns than they have scored in 887 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 8: thirteen straight games. So they got a rookie quarterback, they 888 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 8: fired their head coach, and obviously a lot of people 889 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 8: are picking the Colts to win this game on Sunday, 890 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 8: but you still got to go out and play and 891 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 8: we'll see how it goes. 892 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 5: This weekend. The four twenty five. 893 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 6: Were that a mara of doll stuff. 894 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 3: I had no idea that was fascinating. I'm looking up here. 895 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 3: He's the youngest of nine kids, and he was signed 896 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: with the fifty three man roster over the weekend, so 897 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 3: when they when they put Tavarious Ward on injured reserve, 898 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 3: they brought him up. So he'll be up there, I 899 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 3: guess for the foreseeable future. That red zone stat in 900 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 3: the goal to Go Matt, I mean, that thing is 901 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 3: just insane. How efficient they've been, and the fact that 902 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 3: they stop their own red zone streak themselves by kicking 903 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 3: the field goal at the end of the first half 904 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 3: is just kind of funny. If the saying was so 905 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 3: mad about that, Yeah, oh yeah, yeah I could, Yes, Shane, 906 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 3: I could definitely tell not too pleased, because you know, 907 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 3: when you think about it, And I asked Shane this 908 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 3: earlier in the week, like, what's the most impressive thing 909 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 3: about your offense right now? Because there's so many numbers. Yeah, 910 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 3: you know, he just wanted the generic points, which you know, 911 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 3: I was kind of like, really, but you know, he 912 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 3: is right on that. To me, it's probably the red 913 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 3: zone of the goal to Go Matt, because you just 914 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 3: see it every week where teams move it. I mean, 915 00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 3: the Colts have been out gained. I mean you might 916 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 3: have the number. They've probably been out gained in each 917 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 3: of the last two games, or at least if you 918 00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 3: can buy the last two, they probably have been. And 919 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 3: yet here they are, you know, fourteen points better than 920 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 3: the Chargers because they finish off drives and the Chargers didn't. 921 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 5: Yeah. 922 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 8: No, I mean to your point, I mean, it would 923 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 8: be fifteen out of fifteen, but they just they just 924 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 8: ran out of time. And there's no reason to think 925 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 8: that at the end of that second quarter that if 926 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 8: they had more time that they you know, they absolutely 927 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 8: would have scored based on you know, just how well 928 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 8: this offense is rolling and how much they're executing inside 929 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 8: the twenty yard line. And again it sounds cliche, but 930 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 8: you think players and not plays inside the twenty yard line, 931 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 8: and you scheme up your best guys Michael Pittman Junior 932 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 8: and you know, Tyler Warren and then Josh Doallens in 933 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 8: the slot when he's healthy because he can just find 934 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 8: those those small little windows and zone defense inside the 935 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 8: red zone. But I think the biggest thing, too, is 936 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 8: that they're running the ball well inside the red zone. 937 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 8: And you have to run the ball well inside the 938 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 8: red zone to set you up in favorable down in distance, 939 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 8: you know, near the goal line, or if it's like 940 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 8: you know, third and three at the at the ten 941 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 8: or something, you need a first down at the seven, 942 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 8: you still. 943 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 5: Have to be able to run the ball in tight quarters. 944 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 8: And I think the Colts are doing that. Give Jonathan 945 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 8: Taylor a lot of credit, get this offensive line a 946 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 8: lot of credit. But it's been it's it's been so 947 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 8: fascinating because I said it at the end of that 948 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 8: second quarter, you know when the Colts executed that two 949 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 8: minute drive to perfection, and again the only reason why 950 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 8: they didn't get a touchdown is because they just ran 951 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 8: out of time. But how about when Michael Pittman Junior 952 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 8: gets a first down and gets tackled, and he immediately 953 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 8: instead of just giving the ball to the ref he 954 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 8: runs over to the center and he hands the ball 955 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 8: to Tanner Bordolini to get it spotted as quick as 956 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 8: possible to save the Colts some time to get on 957 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 8: the ball to spike it with three seconds. Bring on 958 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 8: the field goal team, get a walk off field goal 959 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 8: there before halftime. I mean I just said it on air. 960 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 8: I mean, the Colts are just so well coached, They 961 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 8: are so well drilled and schooled in this stuff, and 962 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 8: it started back in training camp and you know, I 963 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 8: told you guys then I love the fact that the 964 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 8: Colts spent a ton of time doing more team periods 965 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 8: and more simulated periods like you know, two minute drills 966 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,799 Speaker 8: or you know, red zone or third down instead of 967 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 8: you know, I think there's a lot of merit to 968 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,399 Speaker 8: seven on seven and individual periods. But you get better 969 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 8: at playing football by playing football and putting yourself into 970 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 8: football situations. And that's what training camp was all about. 971 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 8: And I think Shane Steiken deserves a ton of credit 972 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 8: for how this team prepares, how they practice, the level 973 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,399 Speaker 8: of professionalism they have throughout the course of the week, 974 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 8: and you just see it show up in little bitty 975 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 8: windows that are just you know, for someone like me 976 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 8: like that's a football purist, when they execute a dot 977 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 8: high on the level, it gives you so much joy 978 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 8: because you know, quite frankly, we've been we've been subjected 979 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 8: to a lot of up and down football the last 980 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:53,439 Speaker 8: couple of years. 981 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I said it quite often. I think the Colts 982 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 3: are almost weekly the smarter football team, and that can 983 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 3: go along long way.
