1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: The Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh 2 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: seven five the. 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 2: Fame over Jonathan Taylor. There he goes again, fifty forty 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: down the bar sideline. 5 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 3: You gonna do it again? 6 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 4: Turn touchdown. 7 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 5: Wise, stern Conference championship has been to capture five Indiana. 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 6: Pation tablech pool, which the one hundred nine Indianapolis five hundred. 9 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: He's just a fan morning show with KB, JB and Jeff. 10 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 2: Honestly, the start there kind of looked like me trying 11 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 2: to walk into the studio here on this Friday morning, 12 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 2: I would say, and I don't want to speak for 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 2: all three of us, but boys, that was a little 14 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 2: bit more of a dusting and a little bit more 15 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: ice than I perhaps thought, especially sidewalk wise. I almost 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: bit it coming out of the house, and I certainly 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,959 Speaker 2: almost went butt ground right outside this building a few 18 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 2: minutes ago. 19 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 7: I was, actually, it's funny you say that, Kevin, because 20 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 7: I was literally thinking, like, should I text the guys 21 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 7: that I almost fell twice on my way in walking 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 7: from the parking lot into this building. 23 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 2: And I was not saying Mark whatever wouldn't have But 24 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: that is the voice of Caleb Zuber, and they're clearly 25 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: not thinking about its teammates there, Josh morning for me, 26 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 2: So did you almost bet it? You are certainly much 27 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: more of an athlete than I am. 28 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: I was just gonna say I'm an athlete. So I 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 3: was out there. 30 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 8: You know, we're walking into work today, but it certainly 31 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 8: had to walk like a penguin to make sure I 32 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 8: didn't fall over, put the hands out both sides, little 33 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 8: baby steps, and then make sure you know I'm not 34 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,199 Speaker 8: using my insurance for broken bones. 35 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,199 Speaker 2: It's a bit deceptive, I guess, is what I would 36 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: say to people out there dart like seeing me. I 37 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: just I didn't expect that. It's probably the best way 38 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: to put it. So I think from a two hour 39 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: delay standpoint, we don't really have much here on this 40 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: Friday morning so far, but definitely keep an eye out 41 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: for a little bit of ice action there roadways. Though 42 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: I thought we're fine from a morning commute, we have 43 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: a lot to get to here on this Friday. Certainly 44 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: the Colts News was abundant yesterday. We'll get to Anthony 45 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: Richardson and his first practice in over two months. Played 46 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 2: some audio from Anthony Richardson and Shane Steichen As we 47 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: are one step closer to Monday Night football, which obviously 48 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: has a ton at stake for the Colts, and with 49 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 2: last night one of the games of the year in 50 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: the NFL, there is even more at stake now for 51 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: the San Francisco forty nine Ers. The Pacers lose a 52 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: heartbreaker inside of gamebridge Field House last night. James, of 53 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: course it was Jalen Brunson. 54 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 8: Yeah, my dad, the Knicks fan, certainly reminded me last night. 55 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 8: But I thought Nimhar played out standon Deifis on that 56 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 8: play too. I mean, how Kyle else can you defend 57 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 8: that besides blocking it? 58 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, got Brunting otis right too, got him all. 59 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 8: Right, takes the three you still can test without fouling 60 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 8: and mix hello a shot and he got the last 61 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 8: laugh there because the play before, you know, the take foul. 62 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 8: I'm sure that Brunton probably didn't appreciate the physicality. But 63 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 8: tough loss for the Pacers, and it seems like that's 64 00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,839 Speaker 8: a lot of what we've been saying. 65 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: Are there such things as entertaining losses when it happens 66 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 2: against the Knicks? 67 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 8: Probably not, I don't know, but maybe just because I 68 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 8: mean a couple of days ago, you were getting blown 69 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 8: out by the Wizards, and I guess that didn't really 70 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 8: give you any motion at least. There's a little bit 71 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 8: of hate there with the Knicks. But yeah, I feel 72 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 8: like I'm splitting hairs here, trying to find some silver 73 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 8: line that just isn't there for a struggling Pacers team 74 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 8: that months ago was trying to win it all. 75 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: We'll hit on that obviously. It is a busy weekend 76 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 2: from a college landscape Indiana. We'll find out their opponent 77 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: late tonight. That is Oklahoma and Alabama playing from Norman. 78 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: The other three college football playoff games will be tomorrow 79 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: in Round one. Will have two NFL games coming up tomorrow, 80 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: one of them involving Mark Dyton's Bears. I maybe heard 81 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: that maybe a Mark from Munster might light up the 82 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: phone lines a little bit later today, so Caleb keep 83 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: an eye out for that. And of course, college basketball wise, 84 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: you'll have the Andy Classic four o'clock and six thirty 85 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: tomorrow over at Gamebridge Field House. Again, that is Butler 86 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 2: in Northwestern over on Peacock. If you can't make it, 87 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: Perdue in Auburn also over there on the Cock, coming 88 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: up at six thirty. How much Thursday night viewing. Did 89 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: you get James Boyd? I watched a lot of that game. 90 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 8: I want to say I've watched the whole thing, but 91 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 8: I definitely remember obviously what happened at the end and 92 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 8: the weird two point conversion that was a backwards pass. 93 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: Okay, can you explain this for people that haven't seen it, 94 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: because it's going to take a lot of nice painting 95 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 2: of picture from us year on the audio medium. 96 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 8: I wish I knew who picked up the loose boble. 97 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 8: Long story short, So the Seahawks score and they're down too, 98 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 8: so they go for two to try to tie the game. 99 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 8: At thirty, Sam Darnold throws a pass basically sideways into 100 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 8: what we call the flats, which basically is a short pass. 101 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 3: So you're running back. 102 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 8: Whoever is you know, out to the side of you, 103 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 8: throws the pass, it gets batted down, no one really reacts, 104 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 8: and then a Seahawks player kind of mindlessly picks up 105 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 8: the ball by he's in the end zone. 106 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: I mean, no one reacted. 107 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 8: And while we all think, okay, two point conversion failed, 108 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 8: they're still down two points and the Rams are getting 109 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 8: ready for the kickoff. The refs go, hey, hey, hey, 110 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 8: wait a second, we got to review that, because, as 111 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 8: it turns out, it was a backwards pass and therefore 112 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 8: a live ball when he got batted down, And so 113 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 8: the Seahawks player who mindlessly picked up the ball actually 114 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 8: saved his team two points on that conversion, So it 115 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 8: was a good two point try. They tie the game 116 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 8: at thirty, and they go on to win an overtime. 117 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,119 Speaker 2: A backwards pass that bounded forward is probably, I guess, 118 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: the best way to put it. And then again, seemingly 119 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 2: nobody on either team was had much urgency and getting 120 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: on it. Finally one of the Seahawks players does get 121 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 2: on it. They erased a thirty to fourteen deficit with 122 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: ninety goer Rashi Yahid As if Colts fans needed a 123 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: reminder of what he can do, barked it with a 124 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: huge punt return for a touchdown there, and then in overtime, 125 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: Pooka Nakua, just hope and pray that you are not 126 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 2: facing Poquinakua in your fantasy playoffs. He had two twenty 127 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 2: five last night and two touchdowns. Hell, pray that you're 128 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: not playing Matthew Stafford either. Four point fifty seven and 129 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 2: three touchdowns. Pooka scores to go ahead, Seattle gets the 130 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: ball they've drived down Jackson Smith and Jig but had 131 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: kind of a quiet night for him. He scores, Seattle 132 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: goes for two in the win and they get it. 133 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: And so that means that at the San Francisco forty 134 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: nine Ers win out their final three games, they are 135 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: the one seed in the NFC. So Monday Night Lucas 136 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 2: Old Stadium obviously a ton to play for for the Colts, 137 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 2: but also the forty nine ers have got a chance 138 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: now if they win their last three, they will be 139 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: the one seed out there in the NFCED. 140 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 8: I will say, maybe I can tease this for the 141 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 8: next segment. I feel like I might have got myself 142 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 8: into some beef nope with the NFL player. 143 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 2: Oh so oh okay, see carot to share where the 144 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: NFL player resides. 145 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 3: Or the Pacific Northwest? 146 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: Okay, right, wow, you might have You know, are they 147 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: dialing us up at four oh seven am to hear 148 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: your beef fersus? 149 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 8: No?

Caleb Zuber again thrown in for Mark. 160 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: I am Kevin Bowen. We'll have Greg Rakestraw at eight. 161 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: We'll have Matt Taylor at nine. Did Andrew Luck get 162 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: a call from the Colts? We'll play that audio for you. 163 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: At some point today, we'll continue our countdown from ten 164 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: to one the best Indiana sports stories of the year. 165 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: We'll get to number seven on our list, and again 166 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 2: we'll hit a lot on what happened yesterday over there 167 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: at West fifty sixth Street from Anthony Richardson Senior getting 168 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: back to practice and Shane Steiken vision limitations on number five. 169 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 2: He was out there practicing. Officially he was listed as limited. 170 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: If you want to get a little brief rundown on 171 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: the practice report to Forrest Buckner was full, So I 172 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: think a good sign in him trying to make his 173 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: return to the lineup. There still no Sauce Gardner, still 174 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 2: no Bernard Ryman. So those two guys, I think their 175 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: status very much up in the air. Alex Pearce was 176 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: limited with achilles that can make you sweat. I did 177 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: see Stephen Holder reported. I thought just precautionary for Alec Pearce, 178 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: but a couple of injuries certainly to notote there. Josh 179 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 2: Downs Jermaine Pratt both did not practice due to personal reasons. 180 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 2: So anytime you see that, best to their families and 181 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 2: hopefully everything is okay for them to get back in 182 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: the lineup. But anything briefly on the Richardson Steiken front 183 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: from yesterday, James, I. 184 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 8: Think the biggest thing when it comes to Richardson's vision 185 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 8: limitation is that no one can definitively say that he'll 186 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 8: get his pre injury vision back. And that's a little 187 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 8: scary now. From watching him in practice yesterday, I could 188 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 8: not tell that he had any vision impairment. He looked 189 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 8: like he normally would, and looked like pretty much any 190 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 8: other quarterback would in a practice setting, you know, and 191 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 8: we don't get to see much of it, but hearing 192 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 8: him and Shane talk about that and not getting a 193 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 8: definitive answer as to when it will get better, how 194 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 8: it will get better. That kind of scares me, and 195 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 8: I wonder if it scares him. 196 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 3: He was, you know, very kind of nonchalant about it. 197 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 8: But yeah, man, your vision has changed and you don't 198 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 8: know if you're going to get that full vision back. 199 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know any time you hear well, first off, 200 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 2: it's a vision injury, which is I think different than 201 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 2: just whatever your ankle sprain or something like that. Yeah, 202 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: and when changed second utter the phrase of he's going 203 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: to have to manage it. That really struck me. Of damn, 204 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: you know again, managing blurry vision. And at some point 205 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: I think there is a thought it could get better, 206 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: but I don't think from everything I've gathered, I don't 207 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 2: think that's happening before the calendar turns. 208 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 8: Right, And no one could say definitively that it will 209 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 8: get better. That's the one thing where like, yeah, you know, 210 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 8: you hoped in prey that it could get better, and 211 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 8: certainly I hope we'd look up in a few months 212 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 8: and that is the case. But trying to pin him 213 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 8: or Shane down on real answers when it comes to 214 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 8: that they were few and far between. When it comes 215 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 8: to just the timeline of will this happen? 216 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: A few people have reached out. Sounds like we might 217 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: have a app issue or two here on this Friday Morning. 218 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 2: Apologies on that front. We'll try to get things ironed out. 219 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 2: Of course, you can find us a little Terrestrial Radio 220 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 2: Action ninety three five one O seven the Fan on 221 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: YouTube one O seven five the Fan over there. And yes, 222 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: hopefully our app will get back and operating as smooth 223 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: as possible. And we greatly appreciate all the patients because 224 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 2: we've definitely had some struggles here early on in our 225 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 2: new studio. Good Friday morning too. You, like we said 226 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 2: to lead off the show, if you have not yet 227 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: been outside, I'd say, hmmm, Fernando Mendoza scrambling deceptively? Is 228 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 2: that how you would call the ice? Is that what 229 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 2: they say? Do They still call Alec Pierce deceptively fast? 230 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 8: So am I looking outside and see like a white athlete? 231 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 8: Because that's all we ever say. He's got moxie, he's 232 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 8: got spunk. 233 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 2: Garrison Matthews deceptively has smith to t J McConnell, exactly right. 234 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: That is very much on brand Charlie Becker is the 235 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: next Alec Pierce. Right, the EU white out there. Uh, 236 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: but definitely keep an eye out on that. I think 237 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 2: a little bit more ice, maybe more on your walk 238 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 2: to the car and then to work today than I 239 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: first thought in ninety three five one seven five. This 240 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: is the Fan Morning. 241 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: Show, the Morning Checkdown on Nutty Sweet five and one 242 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: oh seven five. 243 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 2: Fright, we got a ton to get to here on 244 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: this Morning Checkdown. Let's begin with the Colts News item 245 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: of the day yesterday, the return to practice for the 246 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: first time in about nine weeks. Anthony rich Richardson Senior 247 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: was a limited participant at practice. It sounds like though 248 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 2: he will have to manage some eye issues here throughout 249 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 2: at least the rest of the twenty twenty five season. 250 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 2: This was Shane Steiken yesterday on that announced. 251 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 9: As I mentioned, you know, last week, Anthony returned for 252 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 9: physical you know activity, but he still has some vision 253 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 9: limitations in his eye, and so we're going to get 254 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 9: him back on the practice field, get him thrown doing 255 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 9: some scout team rep So it's just something you know 256 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 9: that you know he's gonna have to manage, you know, 257 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 9: through the process. 258 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: James will get much more into this. On the other side, 259 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 2: anything Richardson related, anything injury report related that you find 260 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: very pertinent from yesterday. 261 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 8: Not necessarily, I think personally, I would like to walk 262 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 8: back my idea of, oh, if he practices this weekend 263 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 8: next week and you just play him. The limitations with 264 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,719 Speaker 8: the I, I think are a different conversation when we're 265 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 8: talking about a guy potentially coming back and trying to 266 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 8: help you get into the playoffs. 267 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 2: On the DNP front from practice, Bernard Reiman, I am 268 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 2: curious what exact starting offensive line could look like on Monday. 269 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: I don't think it's just a slam dunk. They'll run 270 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: the same five that ended the game out there against Seattle. 271 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: If assuming Ryman can't go, he's wearing some sort of 272 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: apparatus I guess, for lack of a better term, on 273 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 2: that injured right elbow. Sauce Gardner still yet to return 274 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: to practice. So remember he injured that calf on November thirtieth. 275 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: I kind of look at Sauce and say, it's either 276 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: today or he ain't playing until last Jacksonville next week. 277 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, which would makes sense because they didn't put him 278 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 8: on IR and so you're thinking Okay, let's not again 279 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 8: rush this and give him the time he needs, especially 280 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 8: done with the CAF. 281 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 2: Or the Forest. Buckner was a full participant again Monday 282 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 2: Night Football, Joe buck He will join the show coming 283 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 2: up at nine o'clock on Monday. Colts and forty nine 284 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: ers here in week sixteen last night inside a Gamebridge 285 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 2: Field House. For those that are already in the entertaining 286 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: lost category, Boy, you got the exact poster child of it. 287 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 2: The Pacers built sixteen point leads on two different occasions. 288 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: James's Rick Carlisle post game you mentioned, hey, late game 289 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 2: situations is kind of like scoring in the red zone 290 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 2: in the NFL, and the Colts, or I should say, 291 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 2: the Pacers had to settle for field goal after field 292 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 2: goal after field goal last night into game situations. The 293 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 2: Knicks had Jalen Brunson and the Pacers did not. 294 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 3: No, I thought Andrew. 295 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 8: Nimahar had a really good game last night, scored I 296 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 8: think thirty one points, and I thought played really good 297 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 8: defense on Brunton on that last possession where he ended 298 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 8: up hitting the dagger three. But Brunson was last year, 299 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 8: as I believe, clutch player of the Year in the League, 300 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 8: so it's a good reason for it. 301 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: A shout out to Quinton Jackson. They put him in 302 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: the starting lineup. I've just always liked the energy level 303 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: that he brings. He had a huge corner three there 304 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: late that pushed the lead to seven. I thought that 305 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: might have been enough, had a couple of big hustle 306 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 2: plays as well, so they put him in. You know 307 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: that that spot has changed a lot with Nie Smith 308 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: out and then Ben Sheppard out and Ethan Thompson's gotten 309 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 2: a little bit of run there. But yeah, I mean 310 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 2: Siakam and them hart outstanding. You know, Matheren scored it 311 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: decently well, but Pacers cannot get it done. Last night, 312 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: Jalen brunts and it's a game winning three with four 313 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 2: seconds to go. It looked like Sakam tripped over Nemharden. 314 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: Is that what you saw on the final play? 315 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 8: Yeah? 316 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 3: I think so. 317 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 8: Just unfortunate, But at the same time, it feels like 318 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 8: it's tough sledding trying to get Rick Carlidle win one thousand. 319 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: They've been on ninety nine for a while now nine 320 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: ninety nine for a while, and I do think I'm 321 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 2: the last possession again. Siakam trips. But the fact that 322 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: Jay Huff is inbounding it, to me is a trickle 323 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 2: down effect of Halliburton's injury. Like, in my opinion, a 324 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: healthy Halliburton, you have Nemhard inbounding that ball. Yeah, without him, 325 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 2: you need Nemhart as a potential option to score there. 326 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: Obviously Sacam was the first option. But Nemhard is setting 327 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: the screen for Siakam there, and you know, here you 328 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: have your backup center trying to throw the ball into ball, 329 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 2: you know not that you know, could he have seen 330 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: Siakam trip and you know whatever either I don't know 331 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 2: if that had a time out left, but maybe thrown 332 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 2: at somebody else. So again, Pacers lose off. Tack on 333 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: the Pelicans coming up on Saturday. All right, college football 334 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 2: playoff slates. Your favorite game of the weekend is what? 335 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 8: I think? 336 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: It has to be Alabama Oklahoma, right, Like. 337 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 8: Just Miami A and m doesn't do it for you, 338 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 8: not really, mainly because I'm adjacent to IU. So it's like, 339 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 8: all right, I want to see whoever they have to 340 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 8: play and how that team performs. So that's the one 341 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 8: that'll get most of my attention. But to be honest 342 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 8: with you, Kevin. I'm sure we're probably in the same 343 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 8: boat here. I'm watching all of them, that's for sure. Yeah, 344 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 8: so it's Alabama Oklahoma tonight. Those will be on our airwaves. 345 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 8: You can hear that again. 346 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: As James said, the winner will go to the Rose 347 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 2: Bowl to take on Indiana. Then tomorrow you will get 348 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: A and M, Miami Oldness, Tulane, and then JMU and Oregon. 349 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 2: Those are the four first round playoff games. Remember last 350 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: year we had all the home teams win rather convincingly 351 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: and then they all went on to win in round two. Here, 352 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 2: So that's your college football slate from a college basketball standpoint. 353 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 2: Over at Gamebridge Fieldhouse. Tomorrow it is the Indie Classic. 354 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: At four o'clock it will be Butler in Northwestern. Northwestern 355 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: off to an Okay Star at seven to four. They 356 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 2: actually have some Indiana flavor, A Tray Singleton and kJ 357 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 2: Windham playing for them off of the bench. Important for 358 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: Butler to handle business and get a neutral court win. 359 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 2: And then Purdue. They've got Auburn, certainly a different Auburn 360 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: team from last year. Auburn ran them out of the 361 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 2: building down there. I think it was in Birmingham last year. 362 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: So Purdue will try to close out their notable non 363 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: conference with another ranked win, another win away from home 364 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 2: in Indiana. Back in action, they've got Chicago State. And 365 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: if I could shout out to two of my former students, 366 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 2: they'll be on the call of this game tomorrow, Big 367 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: ten plus Ben Holler, the Big Old Reds fan Ben 368 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: and Zach Brownie New Hails from Carmel, Indiana. They're on 369 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 2: the call tomorrow one o'clock Chicago State down there in Bloomington. 370 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 2: Anything else on your front for you? 371 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 3: Not really. I feel like, again when. 372 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: We're talking night football, was pretty epic for those that 373 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 2: did not watch it. 374 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it was. That was the game of 375 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 8: the year. Maybe in prison of the moment, I have 376 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 8: to think of others. I don't get a chance to 377 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 8: watch all of the games because of the jobs that 378 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 8: we have, Kevin, but boy, I enjoyed not be having 379 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 8: to write that one. I'll tell you that I call 380 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 8: my dad afterwards because we always pick opposite teams. He 381 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 8: picked the Rams to win that when I picked the 382 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 8: Seahawks just to pick against him, and so I called him. 383 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 8: I said, dude, these are the hardest games to cover 384 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 8: as a reporter especially trying to write like live because 385 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 8: you don't know how it's going to end. And you know, 386 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 8: if the Rams win that game, they get that last stop. 387 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 3: Hell of a win. 388 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 2: You lose, oh boy, you know, hell of a loss? 389 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 3: And what does it mean? 390 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 8: So it's crazy that they're going to have most likely 391 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 8: an eleven win team in that division, be a wildcard, 392 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 8: have to go on the road to play. 393 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're looking at like whatever the Rams 394 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 2: at the Panthers in Round one, which I think the 395 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 2: Rams actually lost to the Panthers a few weeks back. 396 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: So thirty eight thirty seven in overtime last night, as 397 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 2: James said, the Seahawks go for two, they get it. 398 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 2: The Rams blow US sixteen point lead in the fourth quarter. 399 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 2: Rashicha Heat had a huge part return for a touchdown 400 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 2: and the Seahawks overcame. A four hundred and fifty seven 401 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 2: yard night for Matthew Stafford. Did he just lock up 402 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 2: the MVP? 403 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 3: I think so. 404 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 8: Now there's a conversation to be had about Josh Allen, 405 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 8: at least not in my book, but from others who 406 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 8: are saying, if he finishes strong and they win their division, 407 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 8: is he the back to back MVP, but boy, Matthew 408 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 8: Stafford played a pretty much flawless game. 409 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 3: He'd lose that game. It was their defense. 410 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 2: Puku Nakua, who has certainly been in the headlines this week. 411 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 2: Two hundred and twenty five yards and we still need 412 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 2: to get to James Boyd's Twitter beef with did have 413 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 2: this correct? A player that played in the game last night? 414 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,959 Speaker 3: No, but played for one of those franchises. 415 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 2: Oh, interesting, hot and juicy. Here on this, We're gonna 416 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 2: get Richard Sherman on the show. What's going on here? Hey? 417 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 8: Ding ding ding? Sure, Caleb Sherman went nuts. I promise 418 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 8: you haven't looked at your Twitter, Jane, No, you're fine. 419 00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 8: I got some beef with Sheran. 420 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 2: Ooh okay, that's it's quite the notable name there, the 421 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 2: little beef with. So we'll get to that. Anthony Richardson 422 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 2: details his injury and we'll get much more into that. 423 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: A lot of questions in relation to the vision limitations. 424 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: We'll explain everything we know. We'll do that coming up 425 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 2: on the other side, Kevin Bowe and James Wood, Caleb Zuber. 426 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 2: On a Friday, you. 427 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: Were listening to a fan morning show on Sports Radio 428 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one oh seven five the fan. 429 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 10: I was warming up and my routine ain't go the 430 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,199 Speaker 10: right way, uh something in fact in my face. It 431 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 10: broke my well, broke my face and messed up my 432 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 10: eye a little bit. By my good you had. 433 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 8: The band attached something and where that was attached broke 434 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 8: and came back to hit you. Yeah, when it first 435 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 8: came out, we were like, it was just a band. 436 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, And I wasn't just a band. I don't think 437 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 10: a band could fracture somebody face. 438 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 2: But Anthony Richardson's senior yesterday and the Colts locker room 439 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 2: a lot to get to on the vision limitations. They're 440 00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 2: officially listed as limited in his return to practice. We'll 441 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: hit on that here a lot. If you haven't been 442 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: outside here on this Friday morning, it is a much chillier, 443 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 2: and we're going with deceptively icy like the quarterback that 444 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 2: you don't think in scramble does scramble. That's how I 445 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 2: would describe a little bit of ice here on. I 446 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 2: don't think it impacted any of our morning commutes necessarily, 447 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 2: but just getting out of the car, be careful. The 448 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 2: penguin waddle is how James Boyd described his walk into 449 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 2: the building there. 450 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 8: Yes, I had to make sure first of all, just 451 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 8: to yank the door when my car was frozen. 452 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, block ice out there. I was a team scraper 453 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 2: here on this Friday morning. So it doesn't look like 454 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 2: it's impacting two hour delays or closings too too much. 455 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 2: I know there are a few around the area, so 456 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 2: maybe take a check on that if you haven't yet 457 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 2: here on this Friday morning. But that is what it 458 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 2: looks like from an outdoors standpoint vision limitations. That is 459 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: what changed stiching through out there. You hear Anthony Richardson 460 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 2: describe the injury, it's wherever you want to go. James, 461 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: what were your thoughts yesterday on how you have heard 462 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: the description for Anthony Richardson's return to practice. 463 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 8: I think that changed the math a little bit for 464 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 8: me because going into it, I'm thinking, Okay, if you 465 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 8: get cleared, that means your eye and everything related to 466 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 8: the fracture, all of it together is fine. Now from 467 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 8: what we understand, the fracture itself is healed and he's 468 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 8: been cleared, and ar told us that he can get 469 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 8: hit in the face and his face will be fine, 470 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 8: that's what he was told by the doctors. Now, I 471 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 8: wouldn't recommend it, but with the eye I think for me, 472 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 8: I'm looking at this like, oh, okay, that's a little 473 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 8: bit more of a conditioning question that I didn't anticipate, 474 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 8: you know, when we were having a debate of Okay, 475 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 8: if Phil Rivers doesn't look that good against the forty 476 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 8: nine ers, if you can't throw the ball on the field, 477 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 8: and Anthony at that point is practice for two weeks 478 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 8: going into the game against the Jaguars, then do you 479 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 8: play him? Do you have that conversation at least to 480 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 8: think about playing him right now for someone who has 481 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 8: limited vision. Now, I don't know to what degree only 482 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 8: Anthony can see through his eyes obviously, but if that 483 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 8: is a conversation, then I think you have to really consider. Okay, 484 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 8: am I putting the best guy out there for my team. 485 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 8: And to be honest, Kevin, it sounded like he and 486 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 8: Shane together in Unison, we're both being very, very cautious 487 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 8: about his progress and what his next couple of days 488 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 8: and weeks might look like. 489 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, Shane did say, for what it's worth, he will 490 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 2: definitely not be a part of the game on Monday. 491 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 2: There's no chance for Monday he will not be activated 492 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 2: right option, So that leaves two games left in the 493 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 2: regular season for him to potentially dress, potentially play, potentially 494 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 2: be the backup. Have everyone to define it again, everything 495 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: I've gathered is this, James. There is scarring on the 496 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: eye that has caused some blurred vision, some impaired vision. 497 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 2: It could heal, but that healing might not take place 498 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 2: until twenty twenty six, and it might not necessarily heal 499 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: on its own. That is an unknown in this process. 500 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: I think Shane Steichen indirectly said something to that effect 501 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: yesterday when he uttered the phrase He's going to have 502 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 2: to manage it. You know, you hear that sometimes with injuries. 503 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 2: Hearing it with an impaired vision injury to me is 504 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 2: a different animal. 505 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 506 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: Now, if you want to get technical with Anthony as 507 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 2: the right handed quarterback, this is the right eye. I've 508 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: certainly I've noticed two things just visibly with him. The 509 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 2: scar is quite evident from the orbital fracture. 510 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 511 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 8: He said he had to get about six to eight 512 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 8: inches of sticks just to close the cut. 513 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 2: Initially, and then they had to open that back up 514 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 2: for the surgery. And you if you look at both 515 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 2: eyes and you say, do you see a difference, you 516 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 2: definitely do. Like to me, the right eye is a 517 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 2: little bit more shut for lack of a better, yeah, 518 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 2: for sure anatomy term than the left eye. 519 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 8: Now I'd argue it's probably a little more pink too, 520 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 8: just looking at it. 521 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Now that is technically that would not be the 522 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: peripheral vision in his blindside eye, which I think is 523 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 2: maybe worth bringing up just you know, from a quarterbacking standpoint, 524 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: you know, how he would approach being a right handed 525 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 2: quarterback in the pocket, the left eye would be a 526 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: little bit more of a hey, what's going on from 527 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 2: a behind me standpoint? So is that a little beneficial 528 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 2: to him potentially on that? But again I think there 529 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: was just some unknown and clearly Anthony said it yesterday 530 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 2: he thought based off of the doctors told him at 531 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: some point he might not be clear to this season, right, 532 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 2: So this was not even a guarantee getting back to 533 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: practice here with three weeks to go in the regular season. 534 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 2: So now I think the biggest question becomes this, what 535 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 2: does he look like with the And again you can 536 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 2: insert you know whatever, all your accuracy jokes here but James, 537 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 2: you are not a contact whear correct? 538 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 3: I am actually, oh I'm in this morning. 539 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 2: Okay. So when you hoop, are you wearing them? 540 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 11: Yeah? 541 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 8: I usually wear my glasses into the show just because 542 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 8: I know it'll be like very long days and my 543 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 8: eyes will get dry if I wear them from I 544 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 8: don't know, six am to midnight. 545 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 2: So when you hoop, you do wear them. 546 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 11: Yep. 547 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 8: So so when JMB is getting those buckets, put on 548 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 8: them exactly right. I got the contact with the hand 549 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 8: is in his face. You hold the fall through a 550 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 8: little bit longer when I'm hacking him on defense, you know, 551 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 8: I kind. 552 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 2: Of look, could you play basketball without contacts? 553 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 3: I could not? 554 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 8: Yeah, No, I have pretty near sighted vision, so I 555 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 8: could get out there and move around and play, but 556 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 8: certainly not as effectively. 557 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 2: And that's I guess my question for Anthony? Could he throw? 558 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 2: I mean, we watched him throw footballs yesterday. You know 559 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 2: he threw it fine, he threw it great. You know, 560 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 2: he threw it the same old Anthony. The velocity was there, 561 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: all of that, you know, everything that you see like, 562 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 2: you know, the motion looks fine. But again it's okay, 563 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: are you at a whatever a sixty percent level versus 564 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 2: if you were able to throw in the contact, if 565 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 2: you did have a visor that could aid him, which 566 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 2: he said, there's none of that right now with him. 567 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: This is the same normal visor. You can't just throw 568 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 2: a contact in the eye. Would that provide clear vision? 569 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 2: And you know when you hear impaired vision. Yeah, you 570 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 2: certainly are gonna have questions, I think for anybody, and 571 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 2: maybe I need to do more research. Find me quarterbacks 572 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 2: that have dealt with this sort of injury, not just 573 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: the orbital fracture. Again, I think there are two separate 574 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 2: injuries here. The orbital fracture is a bone that is healed. 575 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: It caused so much trauma in the locker room. Pregame 576 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 2: that there were moments in that locker room where they 577 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: thought his vision could be gone. So much trauma there 578 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 2: that it impacted his vision right away. After the swellowing 579 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 2: has gone down, the vision has improved, but it still 580 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 2: is not at the level of whatever he was measuring 581 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 2: at pre injury. 582 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that is the scary part, I know. 583 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 8: Alex Levern in our YouTube chat brought up the fact 584 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 8: that Reggie millertually back in the day, had an orbital 585 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 8: fracture and missed the end of the regular season. I 586 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 8: want to say, this might have been ninety six that 587 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 8: this happened. I remember very well as a one year old, 588 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 8: but yeah, that with aobts of years ago, and it 589 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 8: took a while for Reggie's vision to fully come back. 590 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 8: So maybe that is the same thing that ar will 591 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 8: go through. But for Anthony's sake, Yeah, there's so many 592 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 8: questions about this because from what I understand, he is 593 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 8: a contact whearer. And I didn't ask him this yesterday. 594 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 8: I didn't think of this in the moment, but part 595 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 8: of me wanted to be, like, so, can you wear contacts? 596 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 8: Because those of us who do, I mean, they have 597 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 8: all these rules when you put anything in your eye, 598 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 8: ask to not irritate your eye or upset your eye 599 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 8: when it comes to you know the cleanliness of the 600 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,959 Speaker 8: contact and how long you wear them, don't sleep in them, 601 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 8: stuff like that. But if your eye as scarred or something, 602 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 8: then can you wear a contact? Is that okay? Is 603 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 8: that fine for you? And I know for myself even 604 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 8: if you have like a little bit of an eyelash 605 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 8: or anything in that it bothers your eyes so much. 606 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 8: And I would imagine that gets heightened if you are 607 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 8: dealing with and I that's already not one hundred percent. 608 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,959 Speaker 8: So I feel for them in that regard. And like 609 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 8: Shane said, it's something you don't have to manage. And 610 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 8: I just wonder if we look up come what is 611 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 8: it spring training camp or mini camp or whatever, a 612 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 8: veteran mini camp? Are we still asking you can you 613 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 8: see fully? Or by then are you saying something different? 614 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 6: Yeah? 615 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 2: And again I think that's a little bit of the unknown. 616 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 2: Is there is a hope and a thought of this 617 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 2: will heal further heel in twenty twenty six. I think 618 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 2: there also is a thought of he might need another 619 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 2: surgery to potentially correct this. And again, these are all 620 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: questions that I don't think will get clarity on the 621 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 2: next three weeks, you know, just living in the twenty 622 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 2: twenty five bubble. One thought that is there again not 623 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: for Monday night. Chain second has ruled him out for 624 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 2: Monday night. But could you involve him at all as 625 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 2: early as the Jacksonville game in some short yardage packages? 626 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 3: Well, that's a hypothetical, Kevin, I can't answer. 627 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 2: I did play the hypothetical card yesterday a couple times. 628 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 2: He usually doesn't go there. Yeah, some coaches love to 629 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 2: go there. Oh, that's a hypothetical. I'm not I'm not 630 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 2: answering that Shane went there a couple of times. But 631 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 2: I believe with a question that Greg Doyle had and 632 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 2: I had, do I want to be grouped in with 633 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: Greg Doyle? 634 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 8: Probably not on some days, I would say, I would say. 635 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,959 Speaker 7: In fairness to Greg, the question got beef this morning 636 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 7: with people what's going on out here? 637 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 8: No, I think it's beef. 638 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 3: I think the question actually was a legit question. 639 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 8: He asked Shane if his vision doesn't come back fully, 640 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 8: can he play quarterback in the NFL? I mean, yeah, 641 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 8: it's a hypothetical question, but it is a question that 642 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 8: everyone has well. 643 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: And I don't think anybody behind the scenes can answer 644 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: that right. That was not just Shane being coy like no, 645 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 2: you know, but also don't fault the question. I mean, 646 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 2: you know, no one wants to know, dude, can you 647 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 2: play quarterback in the NFL? You can't see fully? And 648 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 2: I think there are two things that can be true, 649 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 2: because you know, if you listened to Shane Steichen's audio 650 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 2: yesterday and you listen to Anthony Richardson's audio, Anthony probably 651 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 2: downplayed it more than Shane. I think, first off, some 652 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: of that is just football player downplaying injury. We hear 653 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 2: this almost endless every athlete, right and so you know 654 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 2: people have asked, hey, whatever, Shane is making more of this, 655 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 2: or you know clearly Anthony disagrees with the organization, or 656 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 2: Shane is just done with Anthony Richardson. I have kind 657 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 2: of isolated into two areas. One there are legit questions 658 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 2: about the vision, limitations about Anthony Richardson right now. That's 659 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 2: in one bucket. The other bucket is Shane Steichen and 660 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 2: the Colts skeptical about Anthony Richardson playing quarterback for their franchise. 661 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 2: I think that is also a true statement, Like I 662 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 2: don't think necessarily you know, one is not true and 663 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: one is true. I think both can be true. Clearly, 664 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: who do they choose coming out of training camp Daniel Jones? 665 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 2: So you know, to me, it's not I don't view 666 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 2: this as Shane is done with Anthony, and that's where 667 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: all of his answers lie. I mean, yeah, he might 668 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 2: have a lot of skepticism about putting Anthony out there, 669 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 2: but I also think there are legit questions about the 670 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: vision impairment with Anthony Richardson. That's also at play. 671 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 8: Here, absolutely, and that is what I couldn't factor in 672 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 8: before having this conversation a couple of days ago, because 673 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 8: this is a new element that none of us can 674 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 8: really quantify, and there's no specific timeline. Even asking Anthony 675 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 8: flat out do you think you're gonna play again this 676 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 8: year and he tells us, well, I'm taking a day 677 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 8: by day. I'm just grateful to be back out here. 678 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 8: That's not an answer I think that he would normally 679 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 8: give for someone who has had injury history in the past, 680 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 8: so very unfortunate, but also very fortunate to still have 681 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 8: an eye to be able to go out there and 682 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 8: practice in an incapacity. You could tell he was kind 683 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 8: of giddy a couple moments to practice yesterday. He was 684 00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 8: very excited, and it felt like things were really normal 685 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 8: for someone who has had the most unnormal year. It 686 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 8: seems like. And the one question I regret not asking him, Kevin, 687 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 8: and maybe I'll get to that at some point today 688 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 8: or next week or whenever. This part of him feel 689 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 8: like he missed an opportunity because of one of the 690 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 8: more bizarre injuries you'll ever see because by all accounts, 691 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 8: prior to the facial fracture, he was the Colt's backup. 692 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 8: And I can tell you all this isn't speculation at 693 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 8: all talking to people behind the scenes, whether it's team 694 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 8: related or you know, player related, whatever, everyone knew he 695 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 8: was the backup. 696 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 3: There was no debate about that. 697 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 8: And if Daniel Jones was going to go down, he 698 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 8: was going to get that opportunity. So for those who 699 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 8: keep saying, oh, I think they would have probably still 700 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 8: called Rivers, know they would not have. Let me just 701 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 8: tell you that one hundred percent this morning and clear 702 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 8: all that up. They would not have called a forty 703 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 8: four year old quarter back out of retirement if Anthony 704 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 8: had all along been the backup quarterback all the way 705 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 8: up until week fourteen when Daniel goes down. Now, that 706 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 8: conversation is different now because you're questioning the vision and 707 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 8: Rivers is already here and you know he looked okay 708 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 8: last again. Oh that is a factor now, But previously, no, 709 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 8: the conversation would have been how do we get Anthony 710 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 8: back up to speed? And what I was told was 711 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 8: it was kind of set up for him to be 712 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 8: the superhero to kind of come come up and come 713 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 8: in and save the day, and this unfortunate injury happened 714 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 8: and messed him up. 715 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeah again, I will reiterate what I've said now for 716 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 2: the last few weeks. I have a large amount of 717 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 2: skepticism about Anthony Richardson plane again here in twenty twenty 718 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 2: five for the Colts. After hearing everything yesterday, I am 719 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 2: curious though of even if you have whatever, hey, you know, 720 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 2: watch him in practice. I don't know some of those 721 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 2: downfield throws. It just looks like some of that vision 722 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 2: is impacting him. Could you still involve him in some 723 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 2: third and one and fourth and one situations? Because which 724 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 2: is Philip Rivers has brought this overall level of juice 725 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 2: to the football team. I do think there is a 726 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 2: real thing when you get into those situations and you 727 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,760 Speaker 2: throw a quarterback out there in Richardson and you convert 728 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 2: some of those I think that also in Jex's life 729 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 2: into your football team and can be a nice kind 730 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 2: of like wrinkle change of pace. Again, we can't be 731 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 2: there Monday from you know what changed second said yesterday, 732 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 2: but could that be an option for a week from 733 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 2: Sunday when Jacksonville inside of Lucas Soil Stadium. So much 734 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 2: more on this, Greig greg So I'm going to join 735 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 2: us here coming up at eight, Matt Taylor at nine. 736 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 2: Did the Colts call Andrew Luck? We'll get to that 737 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 2: audio here in a second. What are you doing on Twitter? 738 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 8: So let me just preference this about saying, in all seriousness, 739 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 8: this is probably a topic that isn't funny or a 740 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 8: joking matter. But at the same time, you know, I'll 741 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 8: stand up for myself and what I think is right. 742 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 8: So watching that game last night, crazy, it ends in 743 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 8: epic fashion. Seahawks those looking sorry Ramseyahawks. And that was 744 00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 8: basically for the division title. It felt like out there 745 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 8: in the Pacific Northwest where I was just. 746 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:12,479 Speaker 3: Where I was just that earlier this week. 747 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 8: But afterward, Sean McVay was asked a ton of questions 748 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 8: about Pooka Nakua. 749 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 3: Not the two hundred and. 750 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 8: Twelve yard performance or two and twenty five yard performance, 751 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 8: twelve catches and two touchdowns, but the Pooka Nakua away 752 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 8: from the field that continues to draw headlines for all 753 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 8: of the dumbest reasons. To put it, frankly, one of 754 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 8: them being calling out the reps, which that happens with 755 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 8: athletes in every league. And then the other one being 756 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 8: that he was he was streaming with a guy named 757 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 8: Aidan Ross, who is an interesting character to say the least, 758 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 8: and he wanted Pooka to do a celebration that has 759 00:36:55,719 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 8: some anti Semitic tropes in it. So after the game, 760 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 8: that is a massive story. First of all, Pooka put 761 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 8: out a statement, The NFL put out a statement saying, hey, 762 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 8: we denounced all. Hey, this is not where we want 763 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 8: to represent or our brand any of that. So after 764 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 8: the game, Sean gets asked about that. He gets asked 765 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 8: about Pooka going at the refs again and deleting the 766 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 8: tweet right after the game, I mean, within five minutes 767 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 8: after that game ended he tweeted. 768 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 2: About the refs. 769 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 8: So he's made all of these things about himself, not 770 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 8: his performance, but perhaps some selfish, egotistical things. So Shawn 771 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 8: gets to ask these questions, and afterwards, Richard Sherman says, why 772 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 8: are we asking this? This shouldn't be happening. This is 773 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 8: not you know, late it to the football. You can 774 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 8: wait till next week you do that. No, I disagreed. 775 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 8: I tweeted out, I said, man, Richard Sherman is out 776 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 8: of his mind thinking that this line of questioning is 777 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:46,919 Speaker 8: out of line. 778 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 3: No, it is not. This is a professional football league. 779 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 3: When your team or your. 780 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 8: League puts out a statement saying, hey, we don't hate 781 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 8: this group of people because it's something you did, that 782 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 8: is a topic that you have to address in the media. Now, 783 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 8: I'm not saying every question after the game should be 784 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 8: about that, but if it's asked about repeatedly, that is 785 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 8: pooking the Coula's fault. 786 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 2: So I tweeted that out and I'm fine with it. 787 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 8: I didn't tag him, but I guess Richard Sherman must 788 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 8: have searched his name, no boy, because yeah, he tweeted, uh, 789 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 8: you know me afterwards and he said it's it's first 790 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 8: of all, he's my full test said, I think people 791 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 8: for I said, man, Richard Shermer's out of his mind 792 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 8: thinking those questions were out of line, pooking the Koua 793 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 8: jumped on a live stream and was about to do 794 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 8: a TD celebration with anti Semitic tropes. 795 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 3: So sorry, that is the story. 796 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 8: First, you can't just ignore that like it's doing behavior 797 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 8: and he responded and said, it's not ignored, but it's 798 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,399 Speaker 8: at a football game. Ask football questions. You have all 799 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 8: we to ask about that, And I tweeted at six 800 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 8: twenty four am because I was sleep by the time 801 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 8: he responded. We can disagree. I think when the football 802 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,240 Speaker 8: league you work for puts out a statement condemning anti 803 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 8: Semitic and other hate because of you or something you 804 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,280 Speaker 8: did as a football player, then it is a football 805 00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 8: question to ask about it, and it's to be done 806 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 8: done immediately. That's my stance on it. Now we can, 807 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 8: you know, move on other things. But I do think 808 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 8: that is something where you can't just ignore that or 809 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 8: dismiss that, because if any player on the Cults did that, 810 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 8: we'd be asking the same thing well. 811 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 2: And also I would have to go back and double check, 812 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,720 Speaker 2: you know, timelines and everything. But the Pookah live stream 813 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 2: this occurred, I believe after Sean McVay had spoken for 814 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 2: the final time pre Seattle game. Right, so usually on 815 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 2: a Thursday week how it works is, you know, it's 816 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 2: very condensed. The Cults haven't played on Thursday night football 817 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: in a little while here. But I would assume Sean 818 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 2: McVay spoke Monday after their game, and then would have 819 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 2: spoken Tuesday, and then usually there's no media availability on Wednesday, 820 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 2: the day before the game. Of course, once the game's played. 821 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: Sean McVay then spoke after the game, so it correct 822 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 2: if I'm wrong. But like when Richard Sherman says, here, 823 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 2: you have all week to ask about that. Didn't the 824 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 2: Pooka livestream occur after Sean McVay last spoke, Like last 825 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 2: night was the first time Sean McVay had been available 826 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: since said livestream, right, yeah, So, and in a ten 827 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 2: minute press conference, I think you could probably do both things. 828 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 2: You can probably ask football related questions, and you also 829 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 2: can ask questions that have led to Hookah releasing a 830 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: statement to your point and the National Football League. 831 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 8: Also, if your employer has to play out a statement 832 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 8: because of something you did, we are going to ask 833 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 8: about it. 834 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the end of story. So I'm looking forward to. 835 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 2: Damy's boyd versus Richard Sherman.

That's my goal every time. 892 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,800 Speaker 7: By the way, Kevin, like, what song can I play 893 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 7: to get James up and moving around? 894 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,479 Speaker 2: I say, James average is a get out of seat dance. 895 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 2: I'd say what over under two and a half times 896 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 2: a week? 897 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you know, can't, can't, can't use this like 898 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 8: It's like Michael Breen. You know, I can't say the 899 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 8: double bang all the time when you make a three pointer, 900 00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 8: but every now and then you gotta get moving into. 901 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 2: An ego double bang for Brunson last night he did, and. 902 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 3: I think Brunston actually criticized him for it because he 903 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 3: said that didn't have a good enough game for him 904 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 3: to do that. 905 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,840 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, so Brunson. Let's shout with one of 906 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: our favorites head of the Payloss Liquers hotline right now 907 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 2: from ISC. He is Greg Rekestraw Rake. You are at 908 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 2: the Cults complex with us yesterday. From what you heard, 909 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 2: are you more optimistic or less optimistic about Anthony richardson 910 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 2: playing in a game this season? 911 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,760 Speaker 6: I don't get to feeling that the Cults are planning 912 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 6: on playing Anthony Richardson. Now that could change. And if 913 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 6: you get to week eighteen, because Craig ram wrong, Fellows, 914 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 6: there's not a scenario where the Cults get eliminated this week. Correct, 915 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 6: correct possibility would happened, that possibly happened at the end 916 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 6: of next week. If you get to week eighteen, there's 917 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 6: nothing to play for, then, by god, you should play 918 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 6: Anthony Richardson if he's physically able. You should play Riley 919 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 6: Leonard if he's physically able. But I think they're one 920 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 6: to get him some reps in practice. But it certainly 921 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 6: sounded like to me that this is going to be 922 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 6: Philip Rivers' job for the rest of the year, and 923 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 6: again with the asterisk of as long as you have 924 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 6: the potential to make the playoffs. 925 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 8: Rake, does that conversation change it all? If Philip Rivers, 926 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 8: who's yesterday said that he has no limitations pushing the 927 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 8: ball down the field, but tape don't lie, So if 928 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 8: we watch the Monday night game and he cannot push 929 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 8: the ball on the field, they lose again. Is that 930 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,760 Speaker 8: a conversation for gods of Anthony's health? Do you start 931 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 8: to think is Riley a better option personally? 932 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 11: Well? 933 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 6: I didn't think Riley was that bad of an option 934 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 6: in the first place, frankly because I didn't think he 935 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:40,120 Speaker 6: played that poorly when inserted into the game against Jacksonville 936 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 6: because of Daniel Jones's injuries. So I'm not sure Shane 937 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 6: would retract that position or walk that back. You know, 938 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 6: he was asked about, you know, conviction and another question, 939 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 6: and I think Shane is pretty convinced that Philip is 940 00:44:57,280 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 6: their best option going forward. It is all always subject 941 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 6: to change, maybe less so on a short week, so possible, certainly, 942 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 6: but I think Shane's pretty dug in on this one. 943 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 2: Rag Tomorrow, the Indie Class sick for the second straight year, 944 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 2: Butler and Purdue both in it. It'll be Butler and 945 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 2: Northwestern at four, It'll be Purdue and Auburn at six thirty. 946 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 2: I would love to see Joe hog set Mike Brown 947 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 2: call you up and say, Greg, Greg Shawl, we need 948 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 2: you to make the Indie Classic a bigger deal. We 949 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 2: need the Crossroads Classic to get back. We need the 950 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 2: state of Indiana incorporated. How best would you create this, 951 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 2: recreate it if you will, to get back to you know, 952 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 2: more than just two teams from the state of Indiana 953 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 2: playing inside a gamebridge Field House on a Saturday in December. 954 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,280 Speaker 6: I get the feeling that maybe with Darren Debris, Indiana 955 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,800 Speaker 6: might be a bit more likely to return to participate 956 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,800 Speaker 6: in this because again, I think you get the idea 957 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 6: that the schedule is it overly tough this year. No, 958 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 6: but you did have the Kentucky game, you do have 959 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 6: the Kansas State game. You do have some examples of 960 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 6: better non conference games that kind of get the feeling. 961 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 6: What's that Louisville right, correct, So you do kind of 962 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 6: have the feeling that a bit more app to potentially 963 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 6: play in this game. I'm not sure Notre Dame has 964 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 6: the same feeling. So if you want to go back 965 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,799 Speaker 6: to the Crossroads Classic, you got to have four dance 966 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,439 Speaker 6: partners and maybe you get two and a half or three. 967 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 6: At this point, I do think to some degree it 968 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 6: is still a big deal. I think having purduing Butler 969 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,479 Speaker 6: and bringing in the calimponents in which they have can 970 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 6: carry this. But I also think, and this is a 971 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 6: compliment to those to those schools, that you do see 972 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 6: more of a willingness for the Power Conference schools to 973 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 6: schedule each other in the limited non conference games in 974 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 6: which they have. I mean, you've got twenty game lead 975 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 6: schedules at this point, so we see you know, conference 976 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:06,280 Speaker 6: games in early to mid December, and so if Indiana 977 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 6: Notre Dame returned to it, great, But if not, I'm 978 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 6: okay with the four teams that we have playing tomorrow. 979 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 6: I'm cool with that. 980 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 2: He is listen to Matt Pain the other day and 981 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 2: he felt like with Michael Shrewsbury now in Notre Dame, 982 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 2: given the obvious Indianapolis ties there, that Notre Dame would 983 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:21,799 Speaker 2: be more willing to be back into it than they 984 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 2: were under Mike brad Bray always had, you know, connections 985 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 2: that want to play in the DC area and kind 986 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 2: of those older big East you know teams, if you will, 987 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 2: you think it was ever discussed maybe back in the 988 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,439 Speaker 2: Crossroads classic day of if you moved the four big 989 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 2: schools Butler, Purdue, Notre Dame, Indiana to the nightcap, was 990 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 2: it ever discussed, Hey, let's get whatever ball state Indiana 991 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 2: State at eleven am, and then let's get whatever IU, 992 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 2: p U I, and Evansville at one point thirty. Well, 993 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 2: do you think any of that was ever discussed? 994 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 11: No? 995 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 6: Just because if you're the Big Four. Why do you 996 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 6: want to share the stage? And the Big Four had 997 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 6: no problem selling out game bridge Fieldhouse. 998 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 12: Uh. 999 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 6: And so everything in division ie Kybogey Athletics these days 1000 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:10,240 Speaker 6: is done to try to separate the power conference schools 1001 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 6: from the none power conference schools. So no, it's a 1002 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 6: buffet and nobody wanted to share. 1003 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 2: Rake. 1004 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 8: I do want to pivot to the high school scene 1005 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 8: because I know you're probably I remember I was when 1006 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,439 Speaker 8: I went to Old Country broff Fay Kevin. I might 1007 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 8: have been five for about three extra years whatever the 1008 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 8: price was to get in cheaper. A were like, you're 1009 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 8: going to go in there and tell those folks that 1010 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 8: you're only five. 1011 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:37,840 Speaker 2: COVID might have started an Old Country. 1012 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:40,800 Speaker 8: It might have, but uh, Rake, as far as the 1013 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 8: high school scene goes, where are you tonight? And any 1014 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,280 Speaker 8: games we should be keeping our eyes on this weekend? 1015 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 6: All right? So Carmel North Central is my game tonight, 1016 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 6: and I've been impressed by both teams so far. I 1017 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 6: had him had Carmel last week and beating Noblesville had 1018 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 6: North Central two weeks ago. In terms of beating addicts 1019 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 6: Carbold to something just a little bit more expected, just 1020 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,479 Speaker 6: because they've they've struggled by their standards the last couple 1021 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,240 Speaker 6: of years, but the core of kids that are playing 1022 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 6: have kind of gone through those struggles h and they've 1023 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 6: got numerous players that have really three years of varsity 1024 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 6: experience at this point. Having Cash Daniels joined the group 1025 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 6: to fill that kind of point guard hole that they 1026 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 6: had after Alex Kudo got hurt and then graduated has 1027 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 6: made them a good team. And all three of their 1028 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 6: wins against good competitions Aionsville ELC in Noblesville so far 1029 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 6: north Central, I think is a pleasant surprise. You know, 1030 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 6: they graduated some key pieces, and then in this era 1031 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 6: of having a little more roster fluidity and player movement, 1032 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 6: even in the high school level, they had two or 1033 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:45,719 Speaker 6: three kid kids that could have returned that went elsewhere. 1034 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 6: So really they were turned three or four guys that 1035 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,479 Speaker 6: played and all very much were in supporting roles last year. 1036 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 6: But they've got a good deal of athleticism and they're 1037 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 6: not the biggest team, but man they're quick, and man 1038 00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 6: they're really good in terms of getting offensive rebounds. So 1039 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 6: looking forward to that one, and then tomorrow we've got 1040 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 6: a new event on our ISC calendar, and that is 1041 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,800 Speaker 6: the Breakaway Classic that takes place at the Courtebe Coliseum. 1042 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 6: It is a girls afternoon event Stard and Bloomington, South, 1043 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 6: Floyd Central and McCutcheon. Then it is a boys doubleheader 1044 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 6: as far as the evening is concerned. Of those games 1045 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 6: are on Mini TV twenty three Bishop Blewers and BBOF, 1046 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 6: followed by Avon and Harrison. So, uh, you know, you mentioned, 1047 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 6: you know, having a you know, an expanded Crossroads Classic. 1048 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 6: I've always thought the way that this would actually work 1049 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 6: that if the three Valley schools and the two Horizon 1050 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:43,520 Speaker 6: League schools and Ball State and USI wanted to get 1051 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 6: together to have an Indianapolis event, either doing it at 1052 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 6: the Courtepec Coliseum or now doing at the Fisher's Event 1053 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 6: Center was probably truly the way to go. And I 1054 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,800 Speaker 6: hope there's an appetite for something like that going forward. 1055 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,280 Speaker 6: So it's good to see that courtub a coliseum venue 1056 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 6: being used a bit more than it has been over 1057 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 6: the last year or two. 1058 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, would agree, it's a great venue. I know you 1059 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:08,919 Speaker 2: obviously have been a staple there for the Horizon League 1060 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 2: and I've been the last couple of years, and it's, uh, 1061 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 2: it's fun not only us doing the show from there, 1062 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:15,799 Speaker 2: but coming back and seeing games in there when the 1063 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 2: Horizon League rules around in early March.

The 1071 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 6: new stadium the Brickyard is nice, but doesn't have that 1072 00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 6: same history. I've seen the East Chicago Bears meme that 1073 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,319 Speaker 6: has gone on. All of my region friends have that. 1074 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 6: You know. I was on which TV yesterday morning and 1075 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 6: in case you'd know, Tara Hastings is a Whiting girl. 1076 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 6: She actually went to either Gavit or Clark, one of 1077 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 6: the two. But she and I were talking about this, like, 1078 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 6: you're going to put it in Northwest Indiana, wouldn't you 1079 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 6: put it like as close to the state line as 1080 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 6: you possibly could? So and if you've never been to Whiting, 1081 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 6: like literally it is football field train tracks late, so 1082 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 6: maybe somewhere in that vicinity is where you could put it. 1083 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:31,880 Speaker 6: So the region Bears.

Dad Gummant right there? 1171 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 2: Would you rather see thirty six year old, one hundred 1172 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,439 Speaker 2: and ninety pound Andrew Luck or forty four year old 1173 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 2: two hundred and I'm gonna say sixty pounds Philip, Come on, 1174 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 2: you think he's less than that. 1175 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,360 Speaker 3: Hal's two six, I was in two fifty. 1176 00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 14: Maybe, Kevin, I gotta say this too, be because you 1177 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,280 Speaker 14: tweeted Philip Rivers walking up to the press conference stand 1178 00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 14: when last week on his first day, and you were 1179 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 14: like one of the first ones to. 1180 00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 2: Tweet it out. 1181 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 7: And I swear I saw accounts I've never seen on 1182 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 7: my Twitter timeline, just a screenshot of Philip walking up 1183 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 7: and like, oh boy, he's a little hefty there, like 1184 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 7: you were the source of all of that in a way. 1185 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:25,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll hear body sham twenty five not my intention. 1186 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 2: But you know, on the scale of whatever Blake the scale, huh, 1187 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 2: on the scale of Blake groupie to Jared lorenz In, 1188 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 2: it's a little more Jared Lorenzen than it is Blake Groupie. 1189 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 8: Give me. 1190 00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 2: Should they have called Andrew Luck? 1191 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 8: No, they should not have called him. He is very 1192 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,840 Speaker 8: clear on his new endeavors. But if you're asking me 1193 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 8: if he would do it, who would. 1194 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 3: Rather see Andrew Luck? Absolutely, there's a. 1195 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 8: Different timeline where he is the guy still somewhere out 1196 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 8: there in the universe. 1197 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:56,480 Speaker 3: I'll ask God about it when I get. 1198 00:57:56,320 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 2: There, hopefully anything rivers related yesterday James about what more 1199 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 2: could be there in the offense on Monday night. 1200 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 8: I'm not buying the I can still push you down 1201 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,560 Speaker 8: the field until I see it. Bottom line, because even 1202 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 8: if your game plan was that rigid, we know Shane 1203 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 8: is a gunslinger. He likes to take those opportunities. So 1204 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 8: within the confines of that game plan, if Daniel Jones 1205 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 8: is out there, if Andy Richardson is out there, even 1206 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 8: if Riley Leonard is out there, I think to a degree, 1207 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 8: you're probably seeing a few more downfield throws I think 1208 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 8: against the Seahawks, even for as great as they are. 1209 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 8: And so does that translate it all to the forty 1210 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 8: nine ers because one point four yards per completion, nine 1211 00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 8: of your completions being behind line of scrimmage. 1212 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:51,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we. 1213 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 3: Got to see something different. 1214 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 8: It's the forty nine ers, man, I we can be 1215 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,919 Speaker 8: to believe that you really can turn back the clock 1216 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:56,360 Speaker 8: a little bit. 1217 00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,240 Speaker 2: Yeah you know again, I know it through these numbers 1218 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:01,480 Speaker 2: that you guys yesterday, But just a few more plays 1219 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 2: of north of fifteen yards, you know, it's virtually impossible 1220 00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 2: if you look at the Colts this season, to create 1221 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 2: touchdown drives, you have to have those plays. You have 1222 00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 2: to have plays of north of fifteen yards. Even if you 1223 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 2: look at Sunday the one touchdown drive you had to 1224 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 2: Tyler Warren, you had that seventeen yard game, and honestly, 1225 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 2: you look at a lot of the touchdown drives this 1226 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,800 Speaker 2: year for the Colts, you had multiple plays of over 1227 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 2: fifteen yards. So how do you go about drawing that up? 1228 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 12: Now? 1229 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 2: Again, the San Francisco defense, We'll probably get more into 1230 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:33,960 Speaker 2: this on Monday, because Monday's kind of the odd you know, 1231 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:36,440 Speaker 2: day of game preview show that we usually don't get 1232 00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 2: in the NFL calendar. But we will get that on Monday. 1233 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 2: The San Francisco defense, first off, Nick Bosa, Fred Warner 1234 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 2: done for the season. They are super nondescript. They are 1235 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 2: the worst sack team in the NFL. Guys, they have 1236 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 2: sixteen sacks on the season. Do you know how many 1237 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 2: sacks Miles Garrett has. I know it's more than that. 1238 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 3: Is it twenty? 1239 00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 2: For twenty one? Every team in the league has at 1240 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 2: least twenty two sacks and the forty nine ers have 1241 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,440 Speaker 2: sixteen so they do not get out after the quarterback 1242 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 2: at all. And last week Tennessee just gashed him on 1243 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 2: the ground. The Tennessee Titans averaged more than six yards 1244 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 2: per carry. So on paper, there is a opportunity here 1245 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,800 Speaker 2: that you should be able to do a little bit 1246 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 2: more offensively. The question for me can you do it? 1247 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 1: Like? 1248 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 2: Literally, can your quarterback do enough for you offensively to 1249 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 2: get there? And I am curious about the offensive line again, 1250 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 2: Bernard Ryman did not practice yesterday. He was going apparatus 1251 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 2: RoboCop looking thing on the right elbow. 1252 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 3: It did not look good. 1253 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 2: It did not look like a guy that was going 1254 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 2: to play on Monday. Now, you could just run the 1255 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,800 Speaker 2: same starting five out there that ended the game on 1256 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:55,800 Speaker 2: Sunday with Luke Tanuda at left tackle. But I am 1257 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 2: curious do they musical chair it up. 1258 01:00:57,960 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 3: A little bit? 1259 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 7: Is it hard to kind of assess how good the 1260 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 7: Colts offensive line is playing considering that this quick passing 1261 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 7: game where it's half a second gets here. 1262 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 2: Of all like, and I was trying to think of that. 1263 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 7: With Jalen Travis in a right tackle last week, it 1264 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:16,880 Speaker 7: was kind of hard to assess whether he was playing 1265 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 7: well or not, you know, especially in the run game too, 1266 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 7: they're stacking the box. 1267 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 2: You know, it's hard. I think that's hard to parse through, right, 1268 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 2: And that's where part of me, I think Caleb looks 1269 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,600 Speaker 2: at last week. I'm like, wait, when you just start 1270 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,520 Speaker 2: this game with the same storty five that ended last week? 1271 01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 2: Like then they play fine, but is there a thought 1272 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 2: with Tony Soprano Junior of if we're really gonna go 1273 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 2: best five? I think they look at a guy like 1274 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 2: Dalton Tucker, who started seven games at right guard last year, 1275 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 2: and I think there's a thought there of do you 1276 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 2: put Tucker in there? Then therefore that would kick Matganzalvas 1277 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,919 Speaker 2: out to right tackle, where he started eight games last year, 1278 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 2: and then Travis would swing over to left tackle. Now 1279 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 2: I can hear a lot of people right now saying 1280 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 2: what that is musical chairs like none other. Why would 1281 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 2: you change three positions when you only need to change 1282 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 2: one With Luke Tannuda going in there for Ryman, I'm 1283 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 2: probably more in that camp Jalen Travis saying there at 1284 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 2: right tackle, but I think it's a real possibility. So 1285 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 2: just some things to keep an eye on before Monday. 1286 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 2: We'll continue to get back into the Anthony Richardson conversation. 1287 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:20,720 Speaker 2: What exactly does impaired vision mean for the Colts quarterback 1288 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,080 Speaker 2: as he got back to practice yesterday. Let's go ahead 1289 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:25,160 Speaker 2: and hit a morning checkdown. 1290 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,840 Speaker 1: The morning checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh 1291 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,440 Speaker 1: seven five, James. 1292 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 2: Let's start over at Gamebridge field House. It looked to 1293 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 2: be one of the marquee wins of the season for 1294 01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 2: the Pacers. They built a pair of sixteen point leads, 1295 01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 2: but in the final five minutes of the game, it 1296 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 2: was ice cold for Rick Carlile's bunch. I believe it 1297 01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 2: was just one field goal in their final ten and 1298 01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:53,680 Speaker 2: it was Jalen Brunson hitting a three with four seconds 1299 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 2: to go with the Knicks down by two. The Pacers 1300 01:02:56,400 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 2: got one final possession and Pascal Siakam tripped over andrew 1301 01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:03,080 Speaker 2: Nemhar Jay Huff then threw it away and og An 1302 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 2: Andobi ran out the rest of full. Yeah. 1303 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 3: Tough ending to that one, and it was one of 1304 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:09,920 Speaker 3: those games. 1305 01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 8: Where you just wish, Okay, they had their closer, We 1306 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 8: wish we had ours because we know what's Tyre's Halliburton 1307 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 8: usually does in those moments. 1308 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,439 Speaker 2: Am I allowed to say entertaining loss. 1309 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 3: At this point. 1310 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 8: Yes, and there's probably a decent portion of Pacers fans 1311 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 8: that are like, all right, making cosmetic but let's keep 1312 01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 8: losing something. 1313 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 3: Get a top five pick. 1314 01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, quite humbling to say that when it's game twenty 1315 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 2: seven or whatever it is. Yeah, they season twenty one, 1316 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 2: but that might be the rowdy. Granted when the Knicks 1317 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 2: pop up, I don't know, maybe that changes a little bit. 1318 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, we have Hooser nineteen ninety seven in the chat. 1319 01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 8: Thank you Nicks, protect the pick. Put that on the shirt. 1320 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:45,680 Speaker 2: Probably, Yeah, I do think a lot of people out 1321 01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 2: there that would agree with that. Nemhart at thirty one, 1322 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 2: I mean you asked him to do so much on 1323 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 2: belt into the floor. Siakam twenty six Mather and sixteen. 1324 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 2: Good to see Quintin Jackson back in the starting lineup. 1325 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 2: I think he gives this team, you know, a nice 1326 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 2: additional ball handler next to them hard and made a 1327 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:03,920 Speaker 2: huge corner three there to stretch lead to seven of 1328 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 2: about five minutes to go, but the Pacers could not 1329 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,680 Speaker 2: hold on from there. They've got the Pelicans coming up 1330 01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 2: on Saturday. Our coverage will begin at six thirty and 1331 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:15,680 Speaker 2: then They'll go back to back Monday at Boston Tuesday 1332 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,919 Speaker 2: here with Milwaukee. That will be Miles Turner's second game 1333 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 2: back here in Indy. Last night, Thursday Night Football definitely 1334 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:25,240 Speaker 2: one of the games of the year in the NFL. 1335 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,720 Speaker 2: It was the Seahawks going for two in overtime, getting 1336 01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 2: the two point conversion thirty eight thirty seven winners. They 1337 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 2: erased a sixteen point deficit in the fourth quarter and 1338 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,800 Speaker 2: they overcame. Matthew Stafford four hundred and fifty seven yards 1339 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 2: and three touchdowns, Puka Nakua twelve catches for two hundred 1340 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 2: and twenty five yards and two touchdowns. If you're playing 1341 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:53,360 Speaker 2: them in your fantasy playoffs, congrats on a good season. 1342 01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 3: Pretty much all you can say, right, A little. 1343 01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:00,280 Speaker 2: Bit of indirect help for the forty nine ers for 1344 01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:03,560 Speaker 2: those that care about Monday Night. Now with that result, 1345 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 2: if the forty nine ers win out, they will be 1346 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,800 Speaker 2: the one seed. Would that be something in the NFC 1347 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 2: giving all their injuries, Boy, Kyle Shanahan Coach of the Year, 1348 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:14,800 Speaker 2: I think you'd be hard pressed to pick anybody else. 1349 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 3: Philip Rivers, you got a chance to do the funniest 1350 01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:17,320 Speaker 3: thing Monday Night. 1351 01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,120 Speaker 2: How about Cooper Cupp turning back the clock there in 1352 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 2: overtime with that catch on the sideline revenge game so good. 1353 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, he had a fumble there earlier in the game 1354 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 8: that was costly, so probably felt a. 1355 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 3: Little good to stick it to his old team. 1356 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 2: All Right, College basketball this weekend again, we talked about 1357 01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 2: it with Rake the Indie Classic four o'clock. It'll be 1358 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:38,520 Speaker 2: Butler or Northwestern. Important for the Bulldogs to continue to 1359 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 2: take care of business here in the non conference. Not 1360 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 2: that Northwestern is some definite Quad one win, but it 1361 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 2: would still help you in a neutral court victory. And 1362 01:05:45,720 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 2: Purdue in Auburn. We remember Auburn running Purdue out of 1363 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,440 Speaker 2: the building last year down in Birmingham. I'm not the 1364 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,400 Speaker 2: same Auburn team by any means, but still one final 1365 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:58,240 Speaker 2: notable test here for purduing the non conference before they 1366 01:05:58,280 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 2: get back into Big Ten. Play Indiana Chicago State tomorrow 1367 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 2: in Assembly Hall. Indiana State lost last night, you see 1368 01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:08,840 Speaker 2: triple overtime for the Sycamores. 1369 01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,920 Speaker 8: Yeah, and I was thinking about my guy, Owen Pulley. 1370 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:15,880 Speaker 8: His dad actually worked security for Cold's game. 1371 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 2: Great humans over on the West Side. 1372 01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, and I wonder if he had to call that 1373 01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 8: game because that kid works a lot and I'm sure 1374 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 8: he probably had a great experience as one of those 1375 01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 8: ones you probably never forget. 1376 01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 2: A couple other items. Indiana, we've talked about their ability 1377 01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 2: to retain from a football program standpoint, the financial commitment 1378 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,480 Speaker 2: that has been there. Another sign of it yesterday offensive 1379 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:41,120 Speaker 2: coordinator Mike Shanahan re signing three year deal with the Hoosiers. 1380 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 2: They did lose their co oc last year, Tino Cinceria 1381 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,479 Speaker 2: went out to UCLA that did not end well for him. 1382 01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 2: So it looks like Kurtzignett would be retaining both of 1383 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 2: his coordinators here as they are the number one team 1384 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Talk about things you don't typically see 1385 01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:56,520 Speaker 2: at all. Ohio State wins at all last year and 1386 01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 2: they lose their offensive coordinator. This year, they were losing 1387 01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:02,920 Speaker 2: their offensive coat. Organs lost both coordinators and yet Indiana 1388 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 2: going to retain them. So great work there from that 1389 01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 2: athletic department in that financial commitment towards their assistance and 1390 01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 2: certainly one of the tragic stories from yesterday rest in 1391 01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 2: peace to NASCAR driver Greg Biffle and his family. Just 1392 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 2: awful news yesterday of a plane crash in North Carolina 1393 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 2: that took the lives of Greg and his wife and 1394 01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 2: his two kids. I know Jake had Adam Alexander on 1395 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 2: the North Central grad who does a great job broadcasting NASCAR, 1396 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 2: and they shared some thoughts and memories. Beflo had raced 1397 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 2: and break out four hundred several times and several nice 1398 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:41,000 Speaker 2: finishes over there, and Bill Accounts had done a lot 1399 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 2: outside of racing from a philanthropic standpoint, So just awful 1400 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 2: news there. So rest in peace to Greg Biffel and 1401 01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 2: his family. It is a Friday, It is the Fan 1402 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 2: Morning Show. Thank you for closing out the week with 1403 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 2: US ninety three to five on a seven five the 1404 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:58,439 Speaker 2: Fan s. Richardson did mention that he had been thrown 1405 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 2: for about two weeks prior to yesterday's practice, but again 1406 01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:06,480 Speaker 2: that was the first time he had officially participated in practice. 1407 01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:10,480 Speaker 2: Shane Steichen mentioned some individual drills for him, you know, 1408 01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 2: perhaps a few scout team reps. Typically how that goes is, 1409 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 2: obviously Philip Rivers takes all the starting reps, and then 1410 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 2: Riley Leonard as the backup, would get the vast vast 1411 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:23,919 Speaker 2: majority of the Scout team reps facing the Colts starting 1412 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:27,000 Speaker 2: defense but it sounds like they'll incorporate Anthony a little 1413 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 2: bit into that. Again, he will not play on Monday night, 1414 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 2: so that leaves two games left for him to play. James, 1415 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:37,879 Speaker 2: I'll ask you the same question I asked Greg Gragstraw 1416 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 2: half hour ago. Based on everything you heard yesterday, has 1417 01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:47,480 Speaker 2: your opinion on Anthony Richardson playing this season increased or decreased? 1418 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:48,760 Speaker 3: Decreased? 1419 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 8: I was leaning towards the increased category before I knew 1420 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:59,719 Speaker 8: about the impaired vision. That to me is a factor 1421 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 8: that's a little bit different than conditioning. And can't he 1422 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:04,960 Speaker 8: go out there and get through a football game physically 1423 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 8: the eye and shout out to my pops. He always says, 1424 01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 8: there's no you know, weightlifting regimen for your eye. There 1425 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,120 Speaker 8: is no way to really strengthen that. You kind of 1426 01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 8: have to give it time, I think to a degree. 1427 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:21,000 Speaker 8: So is it in the best interests of him or 1428 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,040 Speaker 8: the team to put him out there if he can't 1429 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,519 Speaker 8: see to the level that he would hope to see 1430 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:30,120 Speaker 8: in the future. So that to me is a factor 1431 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:37,400 Speaker 8: that certainly muddies this a little bit more. And Anthony himself, 1432 01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 8: who is usually gung hole about playing football, was very 1433 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:43,720 Speaker 8: reserved about the possibility of playing again this year, and 1434 01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 8: by playing, I mean just being activated, being available on 1435 01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:49,240 Speaker 8: a Sunday or a Monday or whatever day a game is. 1436 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:51,880 Speaker 8: And he just said I'm taking things one day at 1437 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,080 Speaker 8: a time, which is never which has never been in 1438 01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:55,880 Speaker 8: the case with Anthony. I mean, this guy's been through 1439 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:57,639 Speaker 8: a lot of injuries. Every time he's come back, he's 1440 01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:59,840 Speaker 8: been like, I'm ready to go right now. This time 1441 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:00,679 Speaker 8: a little bit different. 1442 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, everything I've gathered on this front is Anthony has 1443 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:06,960 Speaker 2: suffered some retina damage. There is some scarring on the eye. 1444 01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:11,040 Speaker 2: I think there is a hope that that could improve, 1445 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:14,120 Speaker 2: but there is an unknown hope of if it will 1446 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,599 Speaker 2: actually improve, and it might not improve until the twenty 1447 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:20,560 Speaker 2: twenty six calendar. So Shane Seiken used the phrase yesterday 1448 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,519 Speaker 2: he will have to manage it. That to me is 1449 01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:27,479 Speaker 2: something that is very difficult to manage. You know, if 1450 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 2: you have an ankle issue, perhaps maybe you don't move 1451 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:33,519 Speaker 2: as much in the pocket or outside of the pocket. 1452 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 2: That's how you'd manage it. Managing an impaired vision, I 1453 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,800 Speaker 2: guess I could squint for sixty minutes of football, But 1454 01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:46,840 Speaker 2: you know that is obviously very difficult, and so we'll 1455 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,599 Speaker 2: see if you want to get technical. You know, it 1456 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 2: isn't the right eye, that's not necessarily the peripheral vision 1457 01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:53,439 Speaker 2: out of his blind side, you know, from a right 1458 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:56,599 Speaker 2: handed quarterback. But still I think that is part of 1459 01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,599 Speaker 2: this practice is can he play with this at all? 1460 01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:04,559 Speaker 2: And clearly you would have some concerns on that now. 1461 01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 2: If there are concerns that are more down the field 1462 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 2: related right now, you know, could you involve him in 1463 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 2: some short yardage packages? Again, not Monday night, but as 1464 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,840 Speaker 2: early as next week. That is a thought that I 1465 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,920 Speaker 2: would have because I do think that is one thing 1466 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,519 Speaker 2: we didn't see the Colts encounter too much in Seattle 1467 01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:25,799 Speaker 2: that I have a definite question about here moving forward. 1468 01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:27,200 Speaker 2: Is when you get in these third and ones and 1469 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:29,680 Speaker 2: fourth and ones, are you simply at the mercy of 1470 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:32,800 Speaker 2: the offensive line may moving the way for Jonathan Taylor? 1471 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,479 Speaker 2: Are you going back to Tyler warren sneaks? Are you 1472 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 2: sneaking in it with Philip Rivers? You know, what do 1473 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:42,040 Speaker 2: you do in those third and one, fourth and one situations? 1474 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 2: The Colts only encountered one on Sunday. They got stuff, 1475 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:46,960 Speaker 2: but it was a false start penalty. End, So it 1476 01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:51,719 Speaker 2: actually helped them out in that situation for sure. 1477 01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:55,960 Speaker 8: And I think even like I said earlier this week, Kevin, 1478 01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,720 Speaker 8: this conversation we're having about Philip probably sounds so much 1479 01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 8: different had they won the game, even with the same 1480 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:06,080 Speaker 8: stat line. But the loss I think makes it a 1481 01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 8: bigger conversation going forward about pushing the ball down the field, 1482 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,760 Speaker 8: how effective you can be, Can you still be the 1483 01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 8: are you more than the whily o vet? And can 1484 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 8: you kind of wind up and be a little bit 1485 01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:20,040 Speaker 8: better come Monday night against the forty nine ers. 1486 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,400 Speaker 2: Now, I believe Mark from Munster is going to call 1487 01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 2: in here in a few You maybe have heard Mark 1488 01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:30,759 Speaker 2: on these airways before, potentially behind the glass, potentially playing 1489 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 2: some animal sounds. We'll get to that in a little bit. Uh, Caleb, 1490 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 2: you said, John want to talk Anthony Richardson. That's right, 1491 01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,640 Speaker 2: Let's get to John here. John, Good Friday morning to you. 1492 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:40,519 Speaker 11: Hey, good morning guys. 1493 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 2: Love listening to you while I'm driving into work real quick. 1494 01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 6: Would you say that Anthony Richardson is this decade JaMarcus Russell. 1495 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 3: I would not. 1496 01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:56,680 Speaker 8: I think JaMarcus Russell didn't take football as serious as 1497 01:12:56,720 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 8: Anthony has. I get that Anthony has had some issue 1498 01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:02,559 Speaker 8: use to that effect and getting bench for perhaps not 1499 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 8: being asshole because he should have been last year. 1500 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 3: But no, I don't view it as that. 1501 01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 8: And honestly, it's kind of weird because JaMarcus was the great, 1502 01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:15,840 Speaker 8: great college player and then offer nothing in the NFL, 1503 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 8: whereas its kind of the inverse with Anthony, where he 1504 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:21,080 Speaker 8: wasn't a great college player and he was taken because 1505 01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:22,839 Speaker 8: of the upside for the NFL. 1506 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you could certainly label both as whatever 1507 01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,679 Speaker 2: right now you would the bust label would certainly apply. 1508 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 2: But if you're going that route then probably, Yeah. But 1509 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:33,920 Speaker 2: I think as you point out, I mean, JaMarcus Russell 1510 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 2: won didn't he win a Heisman? 1511 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:38,640 Speaker 3: If he didn't, he was certainly close to you. 1512 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:42,639 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson. The thought has always been this hope this 1513 01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:45,280 Speaker 2: you know, hey, if we can tap into this, we 1514 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 2: can get you know, he's got this just incredible athletic 1515 01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:53,000 Speaker 2: talent that we can get to. And you know, Russell, 1516 01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 2: I don't think it as much as just injury related 1517 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:58,120 Speaker 2: in the NFL, as we just you know, kind of 1518 01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:00,720 Speaker 2: bad play and Anthony could get end of the bait. 1519 01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 2: I mean, he definitely has had bad play. He's also 1520 01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:04,760 Speaker 2: had play that's been pretty good. It's probably been a 1521 01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:08,760 Speaker 2: little bit more injury centric, availability centric with him. So 1522 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 2: I mean, again, the end result largely the same. I 1523 01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 2: don't know if their career pass up until this point, though, 1524 01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:21,240 Speaker 2: I would say is the exact same, if that makes sense. 1525 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:25,599 Speaker 8: No, but I do get why that conversation has been 1526 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:28,840 Speaker 8: brought up because they both were so physically gifted, and 1527 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:31,640 Speaker 8: for Anthony he still is, so I understand that. 1528 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 2: But again, the back of Anthony's baseball card is not 1529 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 2: a lot of football success. It's not fourth overall pick success. No, Russell, 1530 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 2: I know, as you had that collegiate Yeah. 1531 01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:42,800 Speaker 8: No, I'm just saying I think people look at it 1532 01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:45,640 Speaker 8: kind of in that vacuum though, of here's two freakishly 1533 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 8: athletic guys who couldn't figure it out. 1534 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 2: In the NFL again, Colton report from yesterday and the 1535 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 2: good news front to Forest, Buckner did progress to a 1536 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:58,200 Speaker 2: full participant, so it looks like Buckner will be back 1537 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 2: for the first time in over a month. And then 1538 01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:04,640 Speaker 2: on the did not practice list included Bernard Ryman. It 1539 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:09,120 Speaker 2: included a Sauce Gardner, so obviously vital days today for 1540 01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:11,040 Speaker 2: either of them, particularly Gardener if he is going to 1541 01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 2: have a chance to play on Monday, and also Josh 1542 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,799 Speaker 2: Down's your main Pratt. Both were absent due to personal reasons. 1543 01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 2: So hopefully everything okay on those respective fronts and they 1544 01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:24,760 Speaker 2: can play in the game coming up here on Monday. 1545 01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:28,559 Speaker 2: Anything San Francisco wise, James, I will probably get more 1546 01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,599 Speaker 2: into it on Monday. But as you have looked into 1547 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,680 Speaker 2: them at all, you know, again, I think there are 1548 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:36,080 Speaker 2: some chinks in the armor at ten and four. They've 1549 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 2: been a great special teams unit this season, which sounds 1550 01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 2: maybe a hair fluky to me, like they haven't missed 1551 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 2: at a field goal and their opponents have missed nine. 1552 01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 2: Like to me, there's a little bit of luck involved, 1553 01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 2: and your opponent's missing nine field goals. Obviously they've done 1554 01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,800 Speaker 2: their part and making all of them. But anything stand 1555 01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:57,080 Speaker 2: out to you with brock Perty, George Kittle, Christian McCaffrey 1556 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:57,519 Speaker 2: and company. 1557 01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:02,280 Speaker 8: Well, I think Christian McCaffrey is obviously the centerpiece of 1558 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:05,479 Speaker 8: that offense, and I just wonder how the Colts will 1559 01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:09,439 Speaker 8: try to contain him in space because the thought of 1560 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 8: Zaire Franklin or Jermaine Pratt being lined up with that 1561 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 8: dude is not a good one that goes through my mind. 1562 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 8: I feel like you could see Christian mccafrey go off 1563 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 8: for you know, eighty receiving yards or something like that. 1564 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 8: So how do you try to contain him and force 1565 01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 8: the other guys to sort of beat you? 1566 01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:28,800 Speaker 3: And also you struggle to get to the quarterback? 1567 01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:31,800 Speaker 8: What does that look like when you're facing a guy 1568 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:34,960 Speaker 8: who is mobile like a brock Purty, and I think 1569 01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 8: that he has some wheels that perhaps even Sam Darnold 1570 01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 8: didn't offer last week when it comes to extending plays, 1571 01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:42,559 Speaker 8: creating plays and picking up first downs even with his legs. 1572 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,559 Speaker 2: What do you make of again, Gus Bradley's on this staff. 1573 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 2: Robert Salah is their first year defensive coordinator. He comes 1574 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:54,200 Speaker 2: from the gust Tree Shane Stiking. Of course, that's defensive 1575 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 2: coordinator for the last couple of years. For you, I'm 1576 01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:00,000 Speaker 2: a little like, Okay, how do you view it? Because 1577 01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:06,160 Speaker 2: Gus has such a simple scheme in NFL terms, it's 1578 01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 2: almost like, well, you already kind of know what he's 1579 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 2: gonna do, whereas Shane is a little bit more innovative. Granted, 1580 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:16,439 Speaker 2: the Philip Rivers dynamic throws an interesting wrinkle into it. 1581 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,640 Speaker 2: But you know, is there a little bit more of 1582 01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:23,320 Speaker 2: the Hey, Gus has seen all of Shane in practice 1583 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years. He might have a 1584 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 2: little bit more insight than a normal coach would weekend 1585 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 2: and week out. Do you look at that at all 1586 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 2: with this matchup? 1587 01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:37,960 Speaker 8: Maybe? And I think certainly has a lot to offer. 1588 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 8: But as Shane said yesterday, you pretty much know what 1589 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:42,560 Speaker 8: each team is going to do at this point in 1590 01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 8: the year because there's so much tape out there. So 1591 01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:47,680 Speaker 8: I don't want to like overstate how much of an 1592 01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:49,840 Speaker 8: advantage that could be. I think it's probably just a 1593 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 8: bigger talking point for us. 1594 01:17:50,880 --> 01:17:54,800 Speaker 2: Honestly, Mark from Munster, we'll chat with him. Max. Could 1595 01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears be calling Northwest Indiana home? 1596 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: As you were listening to a fan morning show on 1597 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 1: sports Radio ninety three to five and one oh seven 1598 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 1: five the fan? 1599 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:16,640 Speaker 2: Well the morning commute for me yesterday, it took me 1600 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:20,680 Speaker 2: past the old Governor's mansion. I look out to my 1601 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:23,360 Speaker 2: rights and all of a sudden, I see him man 1602 01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,640 Speaker 2: with classes. I see him like dick a mustache on. 1603 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 2: I see him channing fair Oaks Farm. Channing put the 1604 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,600 Speaker 2: stadium at the Windmills off of sixty five. Can you 1605 01:18:37,680 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 2: imagine how the Kickers would be impacted by that? I 1606 01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 2: think he had a blueprint drawing up for how the 1607 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 2: Maryville Pirates Stadium could be remodeled to host his bears. 1608 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:50,360 Speaker 2: He is the one, He's the only He's Mark from 1609 01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:54,439 Speaker 2: Munster and he believes on the airways right now, Caleb, 1610 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:58,400 Speaker 2: is this Mark from Munster? I believe so it is Mark. 1611 01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:00,880 Speaker 11: Good morning boys, how we doing Mark from Munster? 1612 01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:04,040 Speaker 2: Good morning to you. How about your NFL team calling 1613 01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:05,200 Speaker 2: the state of Indiana home? 1614 01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:08,400 Speaker 11: H Yes, if I could, If I could have a request, 1615 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:09,800 Speaker 11: I would like if they are going to go to 1616 01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 11: Northwest Indiana and the Bear set up shop right next 1617 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:14,679 Speaker 11: to the Hell is Real billboard right on the side 1618 01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 11: of sixty five. 1619 01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,760 Speaker 2: There is that next to the adult superstore, next exit. 1620 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 11: Sign or lions Den. Yeah, get it done. 1621 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mark Dyson of course with us here. We really 1622 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:28,160 Speaker 2: appreciate Mark, you spending part of your PTO with this. 1623 01:19:28,439 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 2: We had to get you on air. What did you 1624 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:35,240 Speaker 2: think about Kevin Warren's letter flirting Northwest Indiana out there 1625 01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:37,280 Speaker 2: as a potential option for the next stadium. 1626 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 11: Well, I feel like Kevin Warren has like he must 1627 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 11: have open letters just like saved in this word documents, 1628 01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:44,599 Speaker 11: because I feel like this is the ninth one he's 1629 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:46,960 Speaker 11: had in his tenure with the Bears. So we're going 1630 01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 11: to Arlington Heights. Now, we're going back to Chicago. Now 1631 01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 11: we're going to Northwest Indiana. It seems like it's kind 1632 01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:53,200 Speaker 11: of like a just replaced some words and put it 1633 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 11: in there. I think I don't believe they are going 1634 01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 11: to Northwest Indiana. I wouldn't mind it, quite honestly. I'm 1635 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:03,080 Speaker 11: going to say that this is a posturing effort by 1636 01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:05,680 Speaker 11: Kevin Warren to kind of get some tax breaks and 1637 01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:09,479 Speaker 11: maybe some leniency in the state of Illinois or Arlington 1638 01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:11,719 Speaker 11: Heights and everything. You got to remember, they've already purchased 1639 01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 11: the land in Arlington Heights. They put their own money 1640 01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:17,280 Speaker 11: down in Arlington Heights. So my betting favorite still for 1641 01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 11: their new stadium would be Arlington Heights, because what do 1642 01:20:19,960 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 11: you do with that property that you spent over three 1643 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,680 Speaker 11: hundred million dollars on if you're not going to use 1644 01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:29,200 Speaker 11: it for anything? So Northwest Indiana is a nice idea. 1645 01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:31,280 Speaker 11: I also remember them doing that in the nineties when 1646 01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:34,160 Speaker 11: they wanted to renovate Soldier Field back in the day, 1647 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:35,880 Speaker 11: They're like, well, we could always go to like Gary, 1648 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 11: Indiana or something somewhere in northwest Indiana. So the NWY 1649 01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,760 Speaker 11: has been used for Bear's leverage in the past, and 1650 01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:44,840 Speaker 11: it seems like they're going to that playbook again. So 1651 01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,000 Speaker 11: while I would love to see it, I would I 1652 01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,120 Speaker 11: would not put I would not put my money or 1653 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:51,200 Speaker 11: your money on that happening. 1654 01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:53,559 Speaker 3: Why did just ruin the moment? 1655 01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 6: Mark? 1656 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm sorry. I have to be realistic. 1657 01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:58,720 Speaker 11: I have to be somewhat realistic. 1658 01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:01,679 Speaker 8: Realistic embarrassing don't exist. I grew up in a family 1659 01:21:01,720 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 8: of them. 1660 01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:04,760 Speaker 11: I mean that's very true. I mean you told me 1661 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:06,839 Speaker 11: some stories of your family. Watch some Bears games. 1662 01:21:07,160 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 2: I think my uncle still wants just a Fields on 1663 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:10,000 Speaker 2: the roster, you know. 1664 01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:13,320 Speaker 11: I mean it could happen. There's always a possibility. But 1665 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,639 Speaker 11: I mean, boy, that would be that'd be wild. And again, 1666 01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:18,680 Speaker 11: where are you putting that scene next to Maryville, next 1667 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:19,000 Speaker 11: to the. 1668 01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 2: Starplaza golf course. You can put it right there in 1669 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,759 Speaker 2: the middle of the golf course. Got a million lakes 1670 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:26,479 Speaker 2: in the middle of one of the wilder golf courses 1671 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:27,000 Speaker 2: that I've seen. 1672 01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:29,920 Speaker 11: You are like, Bears, here we go, baby, let's go. 1673 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 2: I just thought the news mark like seventy two hours 1674 01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:34,880 Speaker 2: before one of the biggest regular season games the Bears 1675 01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 2: have had in years, was just so fitting and maybe 1676 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:39,120 Speaker 2: that was done strategically honestly. 1677 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, what timing the Bears having a really 1678 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,160 Speaker 11: feel good season. Kevin WARN's like, let me send this 1679 01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:46,000 Speaker 11: one out and really kind of damper in the mood here, 1680 01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:51,559 Speaker 11: Like okay, so very ideal. But yeah, I just came 1681 01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:53,479 Speaker 11: back from dropping the girls off at school. My face 1682 01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:55,880 Speaker 11: is still frozen. So are we doing it? Are we 1683 01:21:55,880 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 11: doing an open air stadium like Soldierfield? Are we gonna 1684 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:00,959 Speaker 11: dome it up and everything? I don't do what they. 1685 01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:03,120 Speaker 2: Well, it was the Arlington Heights idea that was thought 1686 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,440 Speaker 2: to be a dome, right I assume. 1687 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:08,120 Speaker 11: Right, Yes, dome non retractable, so it was going to 1688 01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:10,360 Speaker 11: be indoors. I think they were trying to do something 1689 01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:12,040 Speaker 11: kind of similar where it was going to be like 1690 01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,880 Speaker 11: a dome, but you know, kind of like the Charger 1691 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,599 Speaker 11: Stadium where there's like open air on the sides and stuff. 1692 01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 11: But I don't know how true that is. I can't 1693 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,200 Speaker 11: remember what all the revisions were to it and everything, 1694 01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 11: but yeah, I think the plane was domed. So Mark 1695 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:29,240 Speaker 11: getting rid of beer weather Mark. 1696 01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 2: From Munster calling in here on the Payloffs Slickers hotline. 1697 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:36,240 Speaker 2: I laughed very hard yesterday when Caleb shared and again 1698 01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:39,760 Speaker 2: we've gone over our top ten Indiana sports stories of 1699 01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:42,720 Speaker 2: the past calendar year. We've counted them down from ten 1700 01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:45,719 Speaker 2: to one. I complimented you Mark earlier in the week 1701 01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:47,800 Speaker 2: on your sauce Gardner one. I thought that was very 1702 01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 2: smart to include that on the list. But when you 1703 01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 2: gave us Mark Sanchez stabbing yesterday, that is so true. 1704 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:58,040 Speaker 2: That is easily on the list. I can't believe I 1705 01:22:58,080 --> 01:22:58,840 Speaker 2: totally overlooked that. 1706 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I just remember getting national headlines and 1707 01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 11: everything's like, wait, that can't be Mark Fanchez, Like what 1708 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 11: are we talking about here? What do you mean he 1709 01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:09,240 Speaker 11: got stabbed and this, and then there's so much weird 1710 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:11,760 Speaker 11: stuff going to and also that he wasn't the victim, 1711 01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:14,680 Speaker 11: right and yeah, he was the aggressor. So there's a 1712 01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:16,800 Speaker 11: lot going on there and obviously it's still unresolved. We 1713 01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:19,320 Speaker 11: know he's not no longer with Fox, but I just 1714 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 11: thought like, you know, does that to all of these 1715 01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:23,400 Speaker 11: feel good stories, gotta be some weird ones in there, 1716 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:25,799 Speaker 11: and that was certainly a weird one that garnered national 1717 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:28,759 Speaker 11: attention and everything, and we still don't know the full 1718 01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:30,800 Speaker 11: truth of it, so I think there's some still some 1719 01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:33,760 Speaker 11: court dates lined up for mister Sanchez and and all 1720 01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:36,479 Speaker 11: that stuff. But I thought that was a worthy place 1721 01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 11: to put that because definitely got our attention and it 1722 01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 11: was an odd story that we won't forget. And uh, yeah, 1723 01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:44,080 Speaker 11: that was my number eight of the year. 1724 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:47,280 Speaker 2: When is an ex court day, James for Sanchez. 1725 01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 3: I think push back to March. 1726 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:52,000 Speaker 8: So I'd have to go on to course indeed dot 1727 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:55,640 Speaker 8: gov and look into court cases and tell me we 1728 01:23:55,680 --> 01:23:56,679 Speaker 8: do that on Friday. 1729 01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 11: You're telling me I should pencil that in maybe for 1730 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 11: twenty twenty six stories already for top ten maybe. 1731 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 8: Honestly, it's one of those things where that it gets 1732 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:06,479 Speaker 8: drawn out. And part of the reason why he's still 1733 01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 8: drawn out is because he's still recovering from surgery. He 1734 01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 8: thanked the surgeon for saving his life. So a lot 1735 01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 8: more to come out of that one, for sure. Yeah, 1736 01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:16,920 Speaker 8: a truly. 1737 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 11: Weird situation that we had going on there, so that's 1738 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:22,160 Speaker 11: why I found it in my top ten and that's 1739 01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:24,040 Speaker 11: where it is on the eighth spot. So there we go. 1740 01:24:24,200 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 2: You want to if you have the list readily available, 1741 01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,320 Speaker 2: you want to give us your seventh on the list 1742 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:29,559 Speaker 2: as we continue to counter her. 1743 01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:33,559 Speaker 11: So my seven for my top stories of Indiana sports 1744 01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:37,600 Speaker 11: in twenty twenty five is the Colt's hot start and 1745 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,320 Speaker 11: their precipitous fall. So they started off seven and one. 1746 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 11: Everybody's feeling themselves like, finally this regime is getting their 1747 01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:47,160 Speaker 11: act together. Everything firing on all cylinders. When everybody thought 1748 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:49,280 Speaker 11: the temperature was the hottest seven and one start best 1749 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:52,360 Speaker 11: in the AFB. And then reality struck us like the 1750 01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:55,880 Speaker 11: cold this morning. And unfortunately they have not won many 1751 01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:59,280 Speaker 11: games since they are barely in the playoff race at 1752 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 11: now outside looking in. So the Colts hot start because 1753 01:25:02,439 --> 01:25:04,840 Speaker 11: no one could have projected seven to one, but now 1754 01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:07,719 Speaker 11: the precipitous fall with Daniel Jones and now Philip Rivers 1755 01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:10,879 Speaker 11: coming out of retirement and to try to salvage this season. 1756 01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 11: So the Colts again, I think we're all bracing for 1757 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:15,880 Speaker 11: the worst. But when they got that hot start, we 1758 01:25:15,920 --> 01:25:19,360 Speaker 11: were feeling pretty good. But now reality setting in unfortunately 1759 01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:20,600 Speaker 11: for the second. 1760 01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 2: Time in four spots. Now Mark and I agree on 1761 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,679 Speaker 2: the exact position. Need I also had Colts hot start 1762 01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:29,080 Speaker 2: at seven. James Boyd, so far you've gone a little 1763 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,639 Speaker 2: high school. I believe you went Indiana fever at number eight. 1764 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 2: What do you got for number seven? Yeah? 1765 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:35,840 Speaker 3: So number seven? And I should have thought this out 1766 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 3: a little bit more. 1767 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,679 Speaker 8: But I think instead of going with the hot star, 1768 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:43,439 Speaker 8: I'll just go with the Atlanta game overseas Berlin. JT 1769 01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:46,519 Speaker 8: goes off two hundred and forty four yards. You win 1770 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,759 Speaker 8: that game, and you head back across the water first 1771 01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 8: place in the AFC. The vibes are good back then, brother, gosh, 1772 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:55,680 Speaker 8: but when you say back then and it was the 1773 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 8: last win, boy, was it a last win? Colts have 1774 01:25:59,479 --> 01:26:02,719 Speaker 8: not won a game in the United States since before Halloween. 1775 01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 3: Well, isn't that a fun fact for you? 1776 01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,000 Speaker 2: They haven't won a game in regulation. 1777 01:26:07,280 --> 01:26:09,720 Speaker 11: Since a good time James and wearing a suit and 1778 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:10,519 Speaker 11: everything back then. 1779 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, haircut, I got hats on because my hair is 1780 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,400 Speaker 8: all jacked up right now, I'm trying to get to 1781 01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:16,080 Speaker 8: the barber shop. 1782 01:26:16,200 --> 01:26:18,280 Speaker 3: Shout out to my barber who never has time for me. 1783 01:26:18,920 --> 01:26:23,160 Speaker 8: But yeah, I think that this is certainly a conversation 1784 01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:25,000 Speaker 8: that we can have down the stretch before for the 1785 01:26:25,040 --> 01:26:27,720 Speaker 8: sake of positivity. I'm rolling with the Atlantic and the 1786 01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 8: vibes are great. It was so loud in that stadium 1787 01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:31,559 Speaker 8: when JT went off. 1788 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:33,920 Speaker 2: Caleb, what he got for number seven on your list? Here? Well, 1789 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:38,519 Speaker 2: first of all, number seven, come on now, shout out 1790 01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 2: to a Mitchell. 1791 01:26:40,120 --> 01:26:43,680 Speaker 7: I had the w NBA All Star Game being in Indianapolis. 1792 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 7: I thought that was a cool moment, just for the 1793 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:50,240 Speaker 7: whole Caitlyn Clark effect and her bringing that event here. 1794 01:26:50,280 --> 01:26:52,519 Speaker 7: I thought it was a cool thing to at that 1795 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 7: time for me watch from afar, but I loved that, 1796 01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:57,080 Speaker 7: and I thought it was a good weekend for the city. 1797 01:26:57,120 --> 01:26:58,719 Speaker 8: What do you mean they didn't bring that here because 1798 01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 8: Clark plays here? Don't want her decision at all. She 1799 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:02,679 Speaker 8: wasn't even a factor. 1800 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:06,559 Speaker 2: Mark, I know you would have laughed pretty good at 1801 01:27:06,560 --> 01:27:09,200 Speaker 2: this as well. Caleb's number ten on the list to 1802 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:11,919 Speaker 2: get things started, it was John Halliburt and v Jannis. 1803 01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 11: That's a good one. That did not make my top ten, 1804 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 11: but that is a great Another memory where even Tyreese 1805 01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:21,120 Speaker 11: is like, wait, what the hell is going on here? 1806 01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:23,720 Speaker 11: With my father, so that is a solid one. So 1807 01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 11: that's why I like these lists, because there are things 1808 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 11: that go unto the radar and may just things you 1809 01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:29,479 Speaker 11: forgot over the last three hundred and sixty five days. 1810 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:31,480 Speaker 11: It's kind of cool to reflect me like, oh yeah, 1811 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:33,719 Speaker 11: that did happen.

I thought, I think meeting the 1866 01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 2: moment is one of the difficult things to do when 1867 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:50,320 Speaker 2: you're a play by play person, and I thought Matt 1868 01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:53,160 Speaker 2: met the moment beautifully there with a groupie call. So 1869 01:29:53,800 --> 01:29:56,799 Speaker 2: we'll play that here coming up in a few minutes 1870 01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 2: for that just reminder. Colts will have their second practice 1871 01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:03,240 Speaker 2: of the week today and everything is pushed back one 1872 01:30:03,320 --> 01:30:05,799 Speaker 2: day here, so they're on more of the Thursday, Friday, 1873 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 2: Saturday Cadence. One note Pacers from last night, James, anything 1874 01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 2: you would have liked to have seen differently? Those final 1875 01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 2: couple possessions again, the Pacers leading by sixteen, multiple occasions, 1876 01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:23,560 Speaker 2: it just slowly gets away from them. They build it 1877 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 2: back up to seven with five minutes to go, and 1878 01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 2: then they went stone. They went as cold as the 1879 01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:34,960 Speaker 2: weather outside right now, anything differently defensively or offensively there 1880 01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:35,960 Speaker 2: the final couple of minutes. 1881 01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 8: Good question. I tryed to nippick too much. Maybe that 1882 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:49,240 Speaker 8: last possession defensively, he just blitzront Brunson. You gets the 1883 01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:50,720 Speaker 8: ball out of his hands. You don't let him go 1884 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:54,000 Speaker 8: pretty much on them. Yeah, maybe that's the one change 1885 01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:56,080 Speaker 8: that I will make because he's done it to you 1886 01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,680 Speaker 8: so many times, and really not just you, but the 1887 01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:00,840 Speaker 8: entire league. You know what, this point in his career, 1888 01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 8: games on the line, if he's one on one, that's 1889 01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 8: advantage Brunson. So do you just blitz him and force 1890 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:08,800 Speaker 8: one of the others to beat you, especially on a 1891 01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 8: night where there's no they don't have Karl Anthony Towns. 1892 01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:13,120 Speaker 2: No, I think that's a good point. I mean, I 1893 01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:14,960 Speaker 2: think Nemar had had great defense on in one. 1894 01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:16,599 Speaker 3: Noo, I felt like cringy kind of thing. 1895 01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:19,280 Speaker 2: No, I mean, it's kind of an unfair question, to 1896 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 2: be totally honest with you, And yeah, I know Rick 1897 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:23,599 Speaker 2: Carlo mentioned last night that, you know, when you get 1898 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:25,960 Speaker 2: in these late game settings. The pacers haven't been in 1899 01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 2: too too many of them lately, but it is kind 1900 01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 2: of like the red zone in the NFL, if you 1901 01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:34,439 Speaker 2: will of you know, you just need dudes to be dudes. 1902 01:31:34,680 --> 01:31:39,160 Speaker 2: And I almost felt like the couple Nemhard possessions, even 1903 01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:41,840 Speaker 2: the one Siakam one, and I know he got og 1904 01:31:41,960 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 2: and Andoby to foul him there late, but maybe more 1905 01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:46,760 Speaker 2: in kind of that three too one minute range, it 1906 01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:49,920 Speaker 2: just felt like a couple of guys that had been 1907 01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:52,559 Speaker 2: on empty, you know, I mean they had emptied the ta. 1908 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:55,680 Speaker 2: I mean, Nemmard and Siaka more outstanding on both ends, 1909 01:31:55,800 --> 01:32:00,320 Speaker 2: especially for Andrew last night. But you're just asking so 1910 01:32:00,840 --> 01:32:03,200 Speaker 2: much on their plate there, you know, could you have 1911 01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 2: isolated Matherin maybe once just because but again, I mean 1912 01:32:07,080 --> 01:32:09,280 Speaker 2: you ask a lot of him right now. So I 1913 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:11,760 Speaker 2: was a hell of a shot by Brunson there on 1914 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:14,720 Speaker 2: the three, and then on the final possession, Siakam just 1915 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:19,639 Speaker 2: tripped him, and Andrew Demhard locked legs there and Jay 1916 01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:22,040 Speaker 2: Hoff you know, Jay Huff inbounding it. You know, maybe 1917 01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 2: that's where one you point to. But again, Nemhard, you 1918 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:28,000 Speaker 2: need him as a potential score, So that wasn't something 1919 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:28,559 Speaker 2: I don't. 1920 01:32:28,360 --> 01:32:30,880 Speaker 3: Know time to like, you know, throw it and get 1921 01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:31,840 Speaker 3: it back and all that. 1922 01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:35,360 Speaker 8: So that to me is again we're nitpicking or splitting 1923 01:32:35,400 --> 01:32:38,360 Speaker 8: hairs here, but that's what you do when a team 1924 01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:41,160 Speaker 8: is that close to winning and they haven't really, you know, 1925 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:42,439 Speaker 8: won very many games this year. 1926 01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:44,559 Speaker 2: I get voice to Colts Matt Taylor going to join 1927 01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:47,800 Speaker 2: us here in a few we will give out our 1928 01:32:47,880 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 2: most entertaining, our hardest and easiest games here in Week sixteen. 1929 01:32:53,439 --> 01:32:55,720 Speaker 2: For those that missed the Last Night James, that was 1930 01:32:55,800 --> 01:32:58,120 Speaker 2: one of the games of the year so far in 1931 01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:00,640 Speaker 2: the NFL. Is the Seahawks coming back to beat the 1932 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:04,240 Speaker 2: Rams thirty eight thirty seven in overtime. Stafford throws for 1933 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:07,439 Speaker 2: four fifty Pukah's got two twenty five, and yet the 1934 01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:10,439 Speaker 2: Seahawks get it done. If you had to pick one 1935 01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:15,800 Speaker 2: of those NFC West teams Seattle, La, San Fran, who 1936 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:17,560 Speaker 2: would you bet on the most in January. 1937 01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:23,800 Speaker 8: La, because Matthew Staffords wonted it before, and he's playing 1938 01:33:23,840 --> 01:33:27,400 Speaker 8: at an all time great level and you know, maybe 1939 01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:30,880 Speaker 8: a weird two point conversion away from winning that game 1940 01:33:30,920 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 8: and not. 1941 01:33:31,160 --> 01:33:33,479 Speaker 2: Having to go to overtime, so and not DeVonta Adams 1942 01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:33,880 Speaker 2: last night. 1943 01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:36,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I still would pick them, and that's a good 1944 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:38,559 Speaker 8: team and they got to playmakers on defense as well. 1945 01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 8: I know they didn't looked like it last night as 1946 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 8: of late, but I thought the game really flipped on 1947 01:33:43,360 --> 01:33:46,920 Speaker 8: that special teams kickoff or part return for Seattle or 1948 01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:48,000 Speaker 8: Rashiat schaheat. 1949 01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:51,280 Speaker 3: So yeah, I still roll with LA. The thing I 1950 01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:52,160 Speaker 3: would agree with you. 1951 01:33:52,479 --> 01:33:55,120 Speaker 2: The one thing that gives me pause though, is with 1952 01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:57,559 Speaker 2: that loss last night, they could be on the road 1953 01:33:57,640 --> 01:34:02,040 Speaker 2: to the super Bowl, which is wild, I know, I know, 1954 01:34:02,240 --> 01:34:05,040 Speaker 2: but we have them. I'm like every year where you 1955 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:09,559 Speaker 2: get the loaded division and that second place team will 1956 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:11,760 Speaker 2: go on the road, or even the third place team 1957 01:34:12,200 --> 01:34:13,960 Speaker 2: will go on the road and they'll be the road 1958 01:34:14,040 --> 01:34:16,920 Speaker 2: favorite in the first round. And you know, again it's 1959 01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:18,720 Speaker 2: a regular season game. But we saw the Rams go 1960 01:34:18,760 --> 01:34:21,280 Speaker 2: to Carolina a few weeks ago and lose, So you know, 1961 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:25,800 Speaker 2: Rams at Bucks for example in round one. You know, 1962 01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:28,559 Speaker 2: obviously that's quite the travel there, and then they would 1963 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:31,000 Speaker 2: have to do it again in round two wherever that 1964 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:32,400 Speaker 2: would be in all likelihoods, So. 1965 01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:35,919 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that question also to me, I interpreted 1966 01:34:35,920 --> 01:34:39,360 Speaker 8: it as which quarterback do I trust the most homeworll way, 1967 01:34:40,200 --> 01:34:44,000 Speaker 8: And I think that Matthew Stafford gives you a shot 1968 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:46,680 Speaker 8: anywhere on Earth with the way he's playing right now, I. 1969 01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:49,360 Speaker 2: Would agree on that, Caleb, if you don't mind, will 1970 01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:53,599 Speaker 2: you queue up the sixty yard field goal from Sunday 1971 01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 2: voice to Colts, Matt Taylor going to join us right here. 1972 01:34:56,360 --> 01:34:59,479 Speaker 2: And this was Matt Taylor's call of the kick of 1973 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 2: Blake Groupie's life. His career long prior. 1974 01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:05,799 Speaker 5: To this kick is fifty seven, this one from sixty. 1975 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:10,040 Speaker 5: As Rigaberto Sanchez is prepared to put this ball down 1976 01:35:10,120 --> 01:35:12,320 Speaker 5: at the fifty yard line, coming up from the right 1977 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:17,280 Speaker 5: hash the crowd is making tons of noise. Let's see 1978 01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:19,920 Speaker 5: if young mister Groupie in his third year can knock 1979 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:24,120 Speaker 5: down a huge field goal stat placement kick on the 1980 01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:25,920 Speaker 5: way headed downfield for the. 1981 01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 4: Upright spits whoa, whoa, it's good from sixty, Blake. 1982 01:35:38,720 --> 01:35:43,040 Speaker 2: Loophie, How good was that? James Boyd, you're talking about 1983 01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 2: me in the moment, oh man. As beautiful as that 1984 01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:48,800 Speaker 2: kick right that? In themental voice of the Colts, Matt 1985 01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:50,880 Speaker 2: Taylor joins us. Now, I may tell you might think 1986 01:35:50,920 --> 01:35:52,880 Speaker 2: it's awkward that we're playing your own audio and now 1987 01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 2: talking about it. But I just want to give you props. 1988 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:55,479 Speaker 6: Man. 1989 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:58,120 Speaker 2: I thought that was a beautiful, beautiful call, and I 1990 01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:00,760 Speaker 2: don't care what happened in the final forty seconds changing. 1991 01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,800 Speaker 12: Well, I appreciate you. Yeah. The only thing that that 1992 01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:07,400 Speaker 12: call didn't have was just the win to accompany it, 1993 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:11,080 Speaker 12: you know, towards the end. So yeah, I appreciate it. 1994 01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:13,720 Speaker 12: And I was actually scrambling. I think we talked about 1995 01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:16,240 Speaker 12: this yesterday in the press room. I was actually scrambling 1996 01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:19,599 Speaker 12: in my head because I was ninety eight percent sure 1997 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:22,120 Speaker 12: as I'm setting up the kick and kind of like 1998 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:25,160 Speaker 12: you know, doing the preface of the magnitude, I'm ninety 1999 01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:28,840 Speaker 12: eight percent sure in my head that if he makes this, 2000 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:31,759 Speaker 12: this is going to be a franchise record, right, longest 2001 01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:34,800 Speaker 12: field goal in Cult's history. But I didn't. I wasn't 2002 01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:37,360 Speaker 12: one hundred percent sure, so I didn't go with it 2003 01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:39,960 Speaker 12: in the moment. But as soon as that ball went through, 2004 01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:42,800 Speaker 12: you know, you're explaining what's going on, You're explaining the 2005 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 12: culture on top, and you know, giving the time and 2006 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:47,600 Speaker 12: the score, and you know sort of the context of 2007 01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:49,360 Speaker 12: the rest of the game, but also at the same 2008 01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:52,760 Speaker 12: time frantically trying to double and triple check that's a 2009 01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:56,599 Speaker 12: franchise record, which it was, and we confirmed maybe ten 2010 01:36:56,720 --> 01:36:58,800 Speaker 12: or fifteen seconds later, But that was kind of what 2011 01:36:58,960 --> 01:37:01,439 Speaker 12: was going on through my head also at that time 2012 01:37:01,520 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 12: of that kick. 2013 01:37:02,360 --> 01:37:04,200 Speaker 8: Hey, you're a true pro man. You can't go with 2014 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:05,479 Speaker 8: assumptions in this business. 2015 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:07,439 Speaker 3: That has got me in trouble a couple of times. 2016 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:09,519 Speaker 8: So I love the call, and honestly, I would have 2017 01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:11,240 Speaker 8: liked to hear it in the press box where I 2018 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:13,479 Speaker 8: was saying, because everyone else was kind of shell shocked 2019 01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:15,920 Speaker 8: on our neck of the woods. So a great call, 2020 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:18,840 Speaker 8: my friend, and hopefully you get another one here coming 2021 01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:19,840 Speaker 8: up on Monday night. 2022 01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,760 Speaker 12: No question about it. I mean I'm gonna I'm gonna 2023 01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 12: steal one of my my tailor's tidbits right now, just 2024 01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,080 Speaker 12: kind of throw it in since we're talking about it. 2025 01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:33,160 Speaker 12: But I mean Blake Groupie, I mean he is five 2026 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,599 Speaker 12: foot seven, one hundred and forty eight pounds. The only 2027 01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:41,120 Speaker 12: player smaller than him in Colts franchise history is a 2028 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,120 Speaker 12: guy by the name of Titus Dixon, who was also 2029 01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:47,639 Speaker 12: a kicker. He was five foot six of buck fifty 2030 01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:51,880 Speaker 12: two back in nineteen eighty nine, and I mean just crazy. 2031 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:53,880 Speaker 12: I mean, Blake Groupy looks more. I mean, all due 2032 01:37:53,920 --> 01:37:56,320 Speaker 12: respect to him, and I've known him for like what 2033 01:37:56,600 --> 01:37:59,799 Speaker 12: eight or nine days since he's been with the Colts, 2034 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,000 Speaker 12: but I feel like I can say this because he's 2035 01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:04,679 Speaker 12: got a nice, you know, good heart, and he seems 2036 01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:07,360 Speaker 12: pretty self deprecating. But he he more looks like a 2037 01:38:07,400 --> 01:38:09,439 Speaker 12: guy that's gonna be like your valet driver at the 2038 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:11,519 Speaker 12: Conrad more so than an NFL kicker. 2039 01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:12,200 Speaker 6: Uh. 2040 01:38:12,400 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 12: And he got a lot of juice into that right leg, 2041 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:16,640 Speaker 12: There's no question about it. So I mean that thing 2042 01:38:16,640 --> 01:38:18,720 Speaker 12: would have been good from sixty four to sixty oh 2043 01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:21,320 Speaker 12: for sure. For sure, that kind of played into Shane 2044 01:38:21,400 --> 01:38:24,639 Speaker 12: Stiken's you know methodology towards the end of that game. 2045 01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:27,799 Speaker 12: You know, an incomplete pass on third and seven probably 2046 01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:30,839 Speaker 12: is at the very very very fringe of Blake Groupie 2047 01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:33,439 Speaker 12: field goal range. If we get four or five yards 2048 01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:37,519 Speaker 12: there by running the ball by Jonathan Taylor, that gives 2049 01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:40,320 Speaker 12: us a better chance of uh you know, our from 2050 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,400 Speaker 12: our from our confidence standpoint with Blake. 2051 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:45,519 Speaker 6: Groupie from sixty So pretty pretty cool moment. Again. 2052 01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:47,720 Speaker 12: The only thing that it didn't have was a win 2053 01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:52,720 Speaker 12: to cap off that that great milestone accomplishment there by 2054 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:53,439 Speaker 12: Blake Groupie. 2055 01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:53,840 Speaker 6: Yeah. 2056 01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:56,360 Speaker 2: When Cole Swuss teams coordinator Brian Mason said his weight 2057 01:38:56,439 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 2: the other day, I felt like I was watching Fortune 2058 01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:02,000 Speaker 2: in the movie Rudy confronting mister Rudiker saying, you're five 2059 01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:04,240 Speaker 2: foot nothing, one hundred and nothing. You got hardly respec 2060 01:39:04,360 --> 01:39:06,960 Speaker 2: of athletic ability. I could go on and on, but 2061 01:39:07,320 --> 01:39:08,439 Speaker 2: trust me, no one wants to hear that. 2062 01:39:08,800 --> 01:39:12,120 Speaker 8: They kept calling him Blake groupe when we were in 2063 01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:14,080 Speaker 8: the press over in Seattle. 2064 01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:18,360 Speaker 3: French interpretation of that groupe. 2065 01:39:18,800 --> 01:39:21,439 Speaker 2: Look at that. Let's cue it up, Caleb. 2066 01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:24,799 Speaker 8: Let's dive into the nitty gritty. 2067 01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:26,120 Speaker 2: I never knew that. 2068 01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:31,599 Speaker 15: Grab a seat and take notes their storylines all over 2069 01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:37,720 Speaker 15: the upcoming game. Say what it's time for Taylor's tidbids? 2070 01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:39,240 Speaker 11: All right? 2071 01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:43,679 Speaker 12: The Colts Monday Nights Football looking to make a statement. 2072 01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:45,800 Speaker 12: Which team are the Colts going to be? Are they 2073 01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:49,080 Speaker 12: going to be the team that's dealing with poor playoff 2074 01:39:49,120 --> 01:39:52,040 Speaker 12: odds with three games to go that have dropped, you know, 2075 01:39:52,160 --> 01:39:54,760 Speaker 12: four in a row, or are they going to get 2076 01:39:54,760 --> 01:39:57,479 Speaker 12: themselves off the mat fight to the death in front 2077 01:39:57,479 --> 01:40:01,240 Speaker 12: of a national audience, and the Colts could really use 2078 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:03,760 Speaker 12: a win, but they could also at the same time 2079 01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:07,840 Speaker 12: secondary to that, they could use a marquee win against 2080 01:40:07,880 --> 01:40:10,720 Speaker 12: a good football team, because the Colts are just two 2081 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:14,559 Speaker 12: and five this season against teams who are five hundred 2082 01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:18,000 Speaker 12: or better this year, and dating back to last season, 2083 01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 12: that record for the Colts is. 2084 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:21,240 Speaker 2: Three and twelve. 2085 01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:22,960 Speaker 6: So thirteen of. 2086 01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:26,519 Speaker 12: The colts sixteen wins in the last two years have 2087 01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:30,800 Speaker 12: come against squads with losing records. So the forty nine 2088 01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:33,559 Speaker 12: ers come into this game, they're ten and four. They're 2089 01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:36,479 Speaker 12: one of the elite teams in the NFC, they've won four. 2090 01:40:36,320 --> 01:40:36,720 Speaker 6: In a row. 2091 01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:40,559 Speaker 12: They're destined for a playoff spot in the NFC. Also, 2092 01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:44,000 Speaker 12: the later months of the season, as we've come to know, 2093 01:40:44,479 --> 01:40:47,000 Speaker 12: they've just not been kind to the Colts right since 2094 01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:50,600 Speaker 12: they last made the playoffs in twenty twenty. They're just 2095 01:40:50,880 --> 01:40:53,960 Speaker 12: nine and fourteen in games played in the months of 2096 01:40:54,120 --> 01:40:57,800 Speaker 12: December or January. So the fan base is dying to 2097 01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,679 Speaker 12: root for a playoff team and they're eyeing to cheer 2098 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:03,120 Speaker 12: the Colts onto victory in a very important game coming 2099 01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:06,920 Speaker 12: up on Monday night. All right, let's talk about the 2100 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:10,640 Speaker 12: Colts defense. The defense last week in Seattle, for all 2101 01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:14,160 Speaker 12: intents and purposes, played really good. Seattle came into the 2102 01:41:14,200 --> 01:41:17,200 Speaker 12: game number two and scoring the Colts tell them out 2103 01:41:17,240 --> 01:41:21,120 Speaker 12: of the end zone. No offensive touchdowns allowed. Seattle mustered 2104 01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:23,719 Speaker 12: just fifty yards on the ground two point three yards 2105 01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:27,080 Speaker 12: per carry all of those season lows. They were just 2106 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:31,080 Speaker 12: two for fifteen on third down conversions. But in key 2107 01:41:31,200 --> 01:41:34,680 Speaker 12: situations you had Jackson Smith and Jigba who was big 2108 01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:38,680 Speaker 12: last night as well, you had Rashid Shahed. Those two 2109 01:41:38,720 --> 01:41:42,040 Speaker 12: guys still impacted the game. Those two guys combined for 2110 01:41:42,080 --> 01:41:45,680 Speaker 12: almost two hundred yards receiving and they had three receptions 2111 01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:49,240 Speaker 12: north of twenty seven yards. So during this four game 2112 01:41:49,400 --> 01:41:54,080 Speaker 12: losing skid, the Colts defense has allowed twenty nine completions 2113 01:41:54,520 --> 01:41:58,759 Speaker 12: over fifteen yards and they've allowed the second most passing 2114 01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:02,160 Speaker 12: yards in the NFL in that span. And if you 2115 01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:04,040 Speaker 12: zoom out and look at where the Colts are aut 2116 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:06,519 Speaker 12: for the season now, there's been a lot of injuries 2117 01:42:06,560 --> 01:42:09,000 Speaker 12: in that secondary, a lot of guys coming and going, 2118 01:42:09,120 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 12: no excuses, but the reality is the Colts defense now 2119 01:42:12,680 --> 01:42:16,280 Speaker 12: ranks thirty first in passing yards per game on the 2120 01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:21,080 Speaker 12: season at two hundred and forty seven yards allowed per contest. 2121 01:42:21,439 --> 01:42:23,920 Speaker 12: All right, I got two more. Let's let's go to 2122 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,559 Speaker 12: the forty nine ers on defense. All right? I labeled 2123 01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:28,720 Speaker 12: this one as the forty nine ers are digging for 2124 01:42:28,880 --> 01:42:32,600 Speaker 12: gold in the pass rush because now their paying is 2125 01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:37,719 Speaker 12: coming up empty. Last week they recorded no sacks, zero 2126 01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:41,679 Speaker 12: sacks for the fourth time this season, and they played Tennessee. 2127 01:42:42,040 --> 01:42:44,719 Speaker 12: Tennessee is allowed the second most sacks in the NFL 2128 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:48,599 Speaker 12: entering that game, but San Francisco has the fewest sacks 2129 01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:51,240 Speaker 12: in the NFL on the year. They only have sixteen 2130 01:42:51,360 --> 01:42:53,880 Speaker 12: as a team. That is the fewest by a forty 2131 01:42:53,960 --> 01:42:56,200 Speaker 12: nine Ers team for the first fourteen games of the 2132 01:42:56,320 --> 01:42:59,400 Speaker 12: season or of a season in the Super Bowl era. 2133 01:42:59,800 --> 01:43:04,240 Speaker 12: But like I said, on defense, they're still getting it done. 2134 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:06,479 Speaker 12: They're kind of middle of the pack. They're ten and 2135 01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:09,439 Speaker 12: four as a team. But this is what really kind 2136 01:43:09,479 --> 01:43:13,720 Speaker 12: of separates them from being a legit contender in the 2137 01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:17,320 Speaker 12: NFC in my opinion, because only three teams in the 2138 01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:20,839 Speaker 12: Super Bowl era have made the playoffs in a season 2139 01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:24,559 Speaker 12: where they had fewer than twenty sacks, And again right 2140 01:43:24,640 --> 01:43:26,840 Speaker 12: now they only have sixteen with three games to go. 2141 01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:30,360 Speaker 12: Those other teams would be the twenty twenty Tennessee Titans, 2142 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:34,519 Speaker 12: the nineteen seventy nine Broncos, and the nineteen seventy Dolphins. 2143 01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:36,799 Speaker 12: And what do all those three teams have in common? 2144 01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 12: They all three lost in their first playoff game once 2145 01:43:41,400 --> 01:43:44,240 Speaker 12: they got to the postseason, and then my last one 2146 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:49,559 Speaker 12: here I title this the rare Circle City Showcase, all right, 2147 01:43:49,640 --> 01:43:52,599 Speaker 12: because Lucas Oil Stadium opened in two thousand and eight, 2148 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 12: So twenty twenty five this season marks the eighteenth season 2149 01:43:57,280 --> 01:44:00,599 Speaker 12: of Colts football inside that beautiful building and down town. Ending. 2150 01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:05,120 Speaker 12: Monday Night's game against the forty nine Ers will be 2151 01:44:05,360 --> 01:44:08,960 Speaker 12: just a twenty second home primetime game for the Colts 2152 01:44:09,400 --> 01:44:13,280 Speaker 12: in the history of Lucas Oil Stadium. That's it, twenty 2153 01:44:13,360 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 12: two home primetime games in eighteen years now. For comparison's sake, 2154 01:44:18,880 --> 01:44:22,040 Speaker 12: the Kansas City Chiefs a perennial power in the AFC. 2155 01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:24,639 Speaker 12: You know, they go to the playoffs every year minus 2156 01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:28,600 Speaker 12: this year, but they have played forty two home primetime 2157 01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:31,519 Speaker 12: games in that span. So this is going to be 2158 01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:34,559 Speaker 12: just the sixth home primetime game the Colts have hosted 2159 01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:37,840 Speaker 12: this decade, and they're first since that. Winning your end 2160 01:44:37,920 --> 01:44:40,800 Speaker 12: game against the Texans in Week eighteen of the twenty 2161 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,840 Speaker 12: twenty three season, and Lucas Oil Stadium is going to 2162 01:44:43,840 --> 01:44:47,519 Speaker 12: be hosting Monday Night Football for just the sixth time ever, 2163 01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:52,000 Speaker 12: and the Colts have lost four straight home Monday nighters. 2164 01:44:52,080 --> 01:44:55,000 Speaker 12: In fact, the Colts haven't won a home Monday Night 2165 01:44:55,120 --> 01:44:58,719 Speaker 12: game since twenty ten. That was back when Peyton Manning 2166 01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:02,240 Speaker 12: was still here. So you know, in totality, the Coults 2167 01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:04,920 Speaker 12: are twenty five and twenty one all time on Monday 2168 01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 12: Night Football. They've lost five straight and ten of their 2169 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:11,639 Speaker 12: last twelve on the big stage. And it's been since 2170 01:45:11,680 --> 01:45:15,640 Speaker 12: twenty sixteen since the Colts last odd game period on 2171 01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:18,639 Speaker 12: Monday Night Football, which is a shame because the Colts 2172 01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:21,759 Speaker 12: used to dominate on Monday Night Football from two thousand 2173 01:45:21,760 --> 01:45:24,759 Speaker 12: and three to twenty ten with Peyton Manning and the Boys. 2174 01:45:25,200 --> 01:45:29,200 Speaker 12: Indianapolis was nine to one on Monday Night Football and 2175 01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:32,439 Speaker 12: that standalone stage and Kevin, you remember this, you grew 2176 01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:35,559 Speaker 12: up here, remember that old rumor TV executives they didn't 2177 01:45:35,600 --> 01:45:38,240 Speaker 12: want to put the Colts on primetime back then because 2178 01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:41,200 Speaker 12: they just killed teams right and made for bad games, 2179 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:44,160 Speaker 12: and that's bad ratings. The Colts were bad for primetime 2180 01:45:44,520 --> 01:45:46,720 Speaker 12: because they just beat the blank out of everybody. So 2181 01:45:47,120 --> 01:45:49,200 Speaker 12: the Coults are trying to get back to problems like 2182 01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:52,080 Speaker 12: that as a franchise and earn the right to play 2183 01:45:52,200 --> 01:45:53,960 Speaker 12: more games in primetime. 2184 01:45:54,680 --> 01:45:58,519 Speaker 2: Boy, that is wild that home Monday Night stad You 2185 01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:00,800 Speaker 2: said nothing since two and ten. 2186 01:46:01,360 --> 01:46:02,639 Speaker 3: I was a freshman in high school. 2187 01:46:03,520 --> 01:46:06,519 Speaker 12: Yeah, the Colts have not won a Monday night home 2188 01:46:06,840 --> 01:46:09,599 Speaker 12: primetime game, or it should say, let me double back. 2189 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:11,680 Speaker 12: I know there's a lot of information there. They have 2190 01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:16,280 Speaker 12: not won a home Monday night football game since twenty ten. 2191 01:46:16,600 --> 01:46:20,639 Speaker 2: Wow, that is wild, wild, wild wild. Matt Taylor, Voice 2192 01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,360 Speaker 2: of the Colts. Matt, I don't think we'll get a 2193 01:46:23,439 --> 01:46:26,080 Speaker 2: chance to talk to you before.

You 2201 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:48,400 Speaker 2: do have a pacer game opposite Pacers are in Boston 2202 01:46:48,840 --> 01:46:52,040 Speaker 2: on Monday night and then kick off is eight fifteen. 2203 01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:54,439 Speaker 2: And reminder, we'll have Joe buck join us coming up 2204 01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:58,479 Speaker 2: on Monday at nine o'clock. All right, A lot to 2205 01:46:58,520 --> 01:46:59,840 Speaker 2: get to you in the morning. Checkdown. Let's do it, 2206 01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:09,360 Speaker 2: all right, James Boyd injury report for the Colts. Let's 2207 01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:12,160 Speaker 2: start there. Things of note that caught your eye from 2208 01:47:12,280 --> 01:47:13,120 Speaker 2: yesterday was what. 2209 01:47:14,080 --> 01:47:17,320 Speaker 8: The Forrest Buckner being a full participant. I believe Kevin 2210 01:47:18,040 --> 01:47:20,759 Speaker 8: due to his neck injury that has kept him on IR. 2211 01:47:20,920 --> 01:47:23,280 Speaker 8: That's a good sign for perhaps he'll make his return 2212 01:47:23,800 --> 01:47:27,160 Speaker 8: against the forty nine Ers. And then no Bernard Ryman, 2213 01:47:27,280 --> 01:47:30,880 Speaker 8: no Sauce Gardner, and no Josh Downs or Jermaine Pratt. 2214 01:47:31,000 --> 01:47:32,880 Speaker 8: I believe both dealing with personal issues. 2215 01:47:33,200 --> 01:47:35,880 Speaker 2: Alex Pierce so limited with Achilles. The A word makes 2216 01:47:35,960 --> 01:47:38,160 Speaker 2: me worried. But I shouldn't be worried. 2217 01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:40,680 Speaker 8: No, I think you should be worried anytime I hear 2218 01:47:40,720 --> 01:47:42,519 Speaker 8: the Achilles word. No one can, in their white man 2219 01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:45,600 Speaker 8: can tell me that I should not have raised eyebrows. 2220 01:47:45,760 --> 01:47:48,960 Speaker 2: Okay, so me limited on that again. Injury report. I 2221 01:47:49,000 --> 01:47:52,320 Speaker 2: thinks he's been super precautionary around the league this year. 2222 01:47:52,439 --> 01:47:55,479 Speaker 2: But I do have PTSD from a Julian Blackman torn 2223 01:47:55,520 --> 01:47:58,519 Speaker 2: Achilles in practice a few years ago, so that'll be 2224 01:47:58,560 --> 01:47:59,280 Speaker 2: something to keep an eye on. 2225 01:47:59,320 --> 01:47:59,479 Speaker 12: Again. 2226 01:47:59,520 --> 01:48:01,960 Speaker 2: Everything plus back one day this week for the Colts 2227 01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:04,400 Speaker 2: as they will have their second practice of the week 2228 01:48:04,479 --> 01:48:07,959 Speaker 2: today their final practice coming up tomorrow. About a touchdown 2229 01:48:08,160 --> 01:48:12,679 Speaker 2: underdog with the forty nine ers on on Monday. Pacers. 2230 01:48:12,760 --> 01:48:16,080 Speaker 2: Last night they lose to the New York Knicks. Jalen 2231 01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:19,200 Speaker 2: Brunson hits a three with Andrew Demmart in his face 2232 01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:21,760 Speaker 2: with four seconds to go. That was the game winner. 2233 01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:24,240 Speaker 2: As at the other end of the floor, Pascal Siakam 2234 01:48:24,320 --> 01:48:26,840 Speaker 2: trips trying to come off of a screen from Andrew Nemhar, 2235 01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:29,479 Speaker 2: Jay Huff throwing the ball in bounds, doesn't see it 2236 01:48:29,720 --> 01:48:32,920 Speaker 2: goes right to og Ananobi and the Knicks run out 2237 01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:36,000 Speaker 2: of the clock. So the Pacers woes continue off the 2238 01:48:36,080 --> 01:48:38,439 Speaker 2: New Orleans to take on the Pelicans Saturday, and then 2239 01:48:38,439 --> 01:48:41,360 Speaker 2: again that back to back Monday. Tuesday, it's at Boston, 2240 01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:45,800 Speaker 2: home to the Bucks. The Miles Turner Boo Birds will 2241 01:48:45,840 --> 01:48:48,559 Speaker 2: be what on Tuesday. Have they grown since last game 2242 01:48:48,640 --> 01:48:50,120 Speaker 2: or have they shrunk or about the same. 2243 01:48:50,920 --> 01:48:53,519 Speaker 8: I think it'll shrink a little bit, just because the 2244 01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:56,800 Speaker 8: immediacy has worn off. But he's definitely gonna get booed, 2245 01:48:57,280 --> 01:48:59,760 Speaker 8: probably forever, as long as he keeps coming back here. 2246 01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 2: And uniform college football this weekend again tonight it is 2247 01:49:03,439 --> 01:49:06,320 Speaker 2: Alabama and Oklahoma, one of the tighter spreads of any 2248 01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 2: of these four games. Here it's Alabama at Oklahoma. The 2249 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:13,679 Speaker 2: winner will take on Indiana in the Rose Bowl. Tomorrow 2250 01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:17,240 Speaker 2: you'll get Oregon and James Madison. That's one of the games. 2251 01:49:17,240 --> 01:49:19,240 Speaker 2: By the way, shout out Jason Hammer hitting the over 2252 01:49:19,400 --> 01:49:22,160 Speaker 2: last night.

And again last night out in the 2290 01:50:59,360 --> 01:51:01,559 Speaker 2: Pacific North, certainly one of the games of the year. 2291 01:51:02,640 --> 01:51:06,599 Speaker 2: Really a huge comeback from the Seahawks down thirty to fourteen. 2292 01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:09,240 Speaker 2: It was Rashid Shahi doing connaway did to the Colts 2293 01:51:09,280 --> 01:51:13,840 Speaker 2: a huge punt return that spearheaded the comeback. They go 2294 01:51:14,040 --> 01:51:16,800 Speaker 2: for two in overtime. Are you surprised how open that 2295 01:51:17,280 --> 01:51:19,120 Speaker 2: tight end was in the two book version, I mean, 2296 01:51:19,200 --> 01:51:21,160 Speaker 2: for like a two point version that that's open open. 2297 01:51:22,240 --> 01:51:24,639 Speaker 8: I wasn't like that surprised because you would think they're 2298 01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:27,240 Speaker 8: gonna call like their best play. But also if you 2299 01:51:27,280 --> 01:51:30,840 Speaker 8: watch the replay, the defensive lineman is like an inch 2300 01:51:31,120 --> 01:51:33,720 Speaker 8: away from batting that ball down, so they say it's 2301 01:51:33,760 --> 01:51:36,120 Speaker 8: a game inches and that was certainly an example there. 2302 01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:38,400 Speaker 2: So again the Seahawks went for two and the win 2303 01:51:38,560 --> 01:51:40,880 Speaker 2: and they get it done there. What that means is 2304 01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:43,360 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers who the Colts play on Monday night, 2305 01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:46,200 Speaker 2: if they went out, they will be the one seed 2306 01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:48,400 Speaker 2: in the NFC, so the Colts obviously have a ton 2307 01:51:48,479 --> 01:51:51,280 Speaker 2: to play for. San Francisco has a lot to play for. 2308 01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:53,000 Speaker 2: I believe they can clinch a playoff berth with a 2309 01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:56,640 Speaker 2: win on Monday as well. What is the latest on 2310 01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:59,800 Speaker 2: the impaired vision for Anthony Richardson? Will hit on that 2311 01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:05,639 Speaker 2: it is the Fan Morning show. Wow, Wow Wow. Caleb Zuber, 2312 01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:10,960 Speaker 2: sophomore in college. I actually didn't actually hated this song, 2313 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 2: to be totally frank. It was a popular song that 2314 01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:16,519 Speaker 2: was played I feel like at parties and then the bars, 2315 01:52:16,600 --> 01:52:20,720 Speaker 2: but I was never a G six fan. That is 2316 01:52:21,560 --> 01:52:23,439 Speaker 2: the number one charted song. 2317 01:52:23,880 --> 01:52:26,160 Speaker 7: As Matt Taylor said in our last segment that the 2318 01:52:26,240 --> 01:52:29,120 Speaker 7: last time the Colts won a Monday night home game, 2319 01:52:29,439 --> 01:52:31,400 Speaker 7: it was like a G six. 2320 01:52:32,080 --> 01:52:34,920 Speaker 2: That was a number one song. They are two and 2321 01:52:35,120 --> 01:52:37,000 Speaker 2: ten I'm adding this up right now too, and ten 2322 01:52:37,080 --> 01:52:40,200 Speaker 2: in their last twelve Monday nighters, and as you point out, 2323 01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:45,719 Speaker 2: haven't won a home Monday nighter since twenty ten those losses, James, 2324 01:52:45,760 --> 01:52:47,880 Speaker 2: I've always found this so weird about the twenty twenty 2325 01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:51,400 Speaker 2: two season is when Jeff Saturday took over, the Colts 2326 01:52:51,439 --> 01:52:54,160 Speaker 2: had two Monday Night football games left on their schedule 2327 01:52:54,800 --> 01:52:57,679 Speaker 2: home Monday night. I remember they lost to the Steelers, 2328 01:52:57,680 --> 01:53:00,400 Speaker 2: if I remember correctly, that was a big Jalawanni Wood game. 2329 01:53:02,720 --> 01:53:05,240 Speaker 3: Colts Steeler taking me back, and then. 2330 01:53:05,360 --> 01:53:09,760 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert and the Chargers just smoked the Colts. Then 2331 01:53:09,840 --> 01:53:14,799 Speaker 2: Colts barely even scored in that game. Yeah, the Monday 2332 01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:16,400 Speaker 2: Night has not been too kind. I can tell you 2333 01:53:16,479 --> 01:53:22,160 Speaker 2: what your fans like it. I feel like I would 2334 01:53:22,160 --> 01:53:25,080 Speaker 2: think so I'm selling my tickets such an early wake 2335 01:53:25,160 --> 01:53:26,800 Speaker 2: up call to the next day, like the. 2336 01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:28,320 Speaker 3: Ones who are going because I'm like the ones who. 2337 01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:33,479 Speaker 2: Like season ticket holders. I think you got to be 2338 01:53:33,560 --> 01:53:34,240 Speaker 2: mixed on it, right. 2339 01:53:34,360 --> 01:53:36,040 Speaker 3: I can't speak for them, but boy, you know me, 2340 01:53:36,160 --> 01:53:37,760 Speaker 3: I think one pm is God's time. 2341 01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:38,160 Speaker 2: You know. 2342 01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:40,160 Speaker 7: When I think of the whole Monday night games, Kevin, 2343 01:53:40,240 --> 01:53:43,360 Speaker 7: I think of those two during the Lucky years, I 2344 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:46,320 Speaker 7: think of I think it was I don't want Jets Eagles. 2345 01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:49,320 Speaker 2: Or Eagles Jets, but both of those are Week two games. 2346 01:53:49,479 --> 01:53:51,719 Speaker 2: Both of them. I think the Jets they barely scored 2347 01:53:51,880 --> 01:53:56,200 Speaker 2: more horrible. They just went off. You sound more right there, dude. 2348 01:53:56,320 --> 01:53:59,320 Speaker 2: I mean we were we were upset, you know, and 2349 01:53:59,520 --> 01:54:02,680 Speaker 2: it was not pretty out Papa Zover have not been 2350 01:54:02,720 --> 01:54:04,840 Speaker 2: on Monday night very often. We'll be here coming up 2351 01:54:04,960 --> 01:54:07,599 Speaker 2: and again we'll Joe Buck join us at nine o'clock 2352 01:54:07,840 --> 01:54:10,680 Speaker 2: on Monday. Let's get back into Anthony Richardson and the 2353 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:14,360 Speaker 2: update from yesterday. Caleb go ahead and played the Shane 2354 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:17,160 Speaker 2: Stike in audio again, the vision impairment. That was the 2355 01:54:17,320 --> 01:54:21,400 Speaker 2: popular phrase used yesterday. Here was Shane Stike and yesterday 2356 01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:24,480 Speaker 2: on the latest update in regards Anthony Richardson. 2357 01:54:24,560 --> 01:54:26,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think, like you get the clearance from the 2358 01:54:26,600 --> 01:54:30,440 Speaker 9: bone structure that was cleared obviously, but there was limitations 2359 01:54:30,520 --> 01:54:33,240 Speaker 9: with that, you know, with the vision that's healing. So 2360 01:54:33,400 --> 01:54:35,160 Speaker 9: he's working through that. Like I said, he's gonna have 2361 01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:36,920 Speaker 9: to manage it. I get him out on the practice 2362 01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:37,720 Speaker 9: field and go from there. 2363 01:54:38,440 --> 01:54:42,520 Speaker 2: James covered the culture for fifteen years obviously watched a 2364 01:54:42,560 --> 01:54:46,640 Speaker 2: whole lot of sports in my life. Managing impaired vision 2365 01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:50,360 Speaker 2: is a phrase I haven't heard too many of too often, 2366 01:54:50,720 --> 01:54:51,919 Speaker 2: let alone for a quarterback. 2367 01:54:52,440 --> 01:54:54,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, sounds a little scary for sure. 2368 01:54:54,520 --> 01:54:58,600 Speaker 8: And again, pressing for more information from Shane and from 2369 01:54:58,640 --> 01:55:02,480 Speaker 8: Anthony himself, we never got a definitive answer as to 2370 01:55:02,800 --> 01:55:05,480 Speaker 8: will that vision come back? Will it get back to 2371 01:55:05,560 --> 01:55:08,080 Speaker 8: the level that he had pre injury. I know you 2372 01:55:08,200 --> 01:55:11,120 Speaker 8: pointed out if you look at Anthony straight in his face, 2373 01:55:11,200 --> 01:55:12,840 Speaker 8: you can tell the right side of his face where 2374 01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:16,640 Speaker 8: he got hit. His right eye it is not as 2375 01:55:16,720 --> 01:55:19,920 Speaker 8: open as the other one, and you can tell there's 2376 01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:25,400 Speaker 8: still some recovery happening perhaps, But yeah, that is concerning, 2377 01:55:25,600 --> 01:55:30,760 Speaker 8: and it's instantly became those news worthy item. 2378 01:55:30,600 --> 01:55:31,240 Speaker 11: Of the day. 2379 01:55:31,560 --> 01:55:34,080 Speaker 8: When he mentioned the vision part, I think all of 2380 01:55:34,200 --> 01:55:35,760 Speaker 8: us kind of sat up in our seats, like, wait 2381 01:55:35,800 --> 01:55:38,320 Speaker 8: a second, we gotta ask for more on this, because 2382 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:40,879 Speaker 8: my thing was, how did you get clear for practice 2383 01:55:41,080 --> 01:55:45,560 Speaker 8: if you can't see fully? But my understanding, according to Stichen, 2384 01:55:46,160 --> 01:55:49,320 Speaker 8: is that the bone itself is healed and now they're 2385 01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:50,600 Speaker 8: just waiting for the eye to heel. 2386 01:55:50,680 --> 01:55:53,240 Speaker 3: But as that is happening, he can still practice with 2387 01:55:53,320 --> 01:55:53,640 Speaker 3: the team. 2388 01:55:53,800 --> 01:55:57,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think the easiest common human comparison 2389 01:55:57,520 --> 01:55:59,840 Speaker 2: would be James Boyd. You're going out to play basketball 2390 01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:02,440 Speaker 2: and you forget to put in your contacts. You're gonna 2391 01:56:02,440 --> 01:56:07,160 Speaker 2: attempt to play, but you'd rather have your contacts in now. Unfortunately, 2392 01:56:07,240 --> 01:56:09,560 Speaker 2: with the situation with Anthony, you can't just pop in 2393 01:56:09,600 --> 01:56:12,600 Speaker 2: a contact in that right eye. And there are legit 2394 01:56:12,800 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 2: questions about if the vision will continue to heal anymore 2395 01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:19,360 Speaker 2: or if this is it. So I think that's where 2396 01:56:19,360 --> 01:56:21,800 Speaker 2: you get into kind of the managing phrase of it. 2397 01:56:21,920 --> 01:56:24,960 Speaker 2: But I mean, again, we're talking about a very gruesome injury. 2398 01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:29,560 Speaker 2: The trauma from the orbital fracture led to serious questions 2399 01:56:29,600 --> 01:56:33,760 Speaker 2: about if his vision would be there, and initially it 2400 01:56:33,880 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 2: was a lot worse. It has gotten better over time, 2401 01:56:36,600 --> 01:56:38,560 Speaker 2: but I mean, we're talking about damage to the retina, 2402 01:56:38,600 --> 01:56:42,640 Speaker 2: and you know, those sorts of things are just awful. 2403 01:56:43,320 --> 01:56:45,280 Speaker 2: And you know, I guess if you want to look 2404 01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:47,640 Speaker 2: for a little bit of optimism, it is the right eye, 2405 01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:49,600 Speaker 2: which plain quarterback is a right hander. 2406 01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:51,160 Speaker 3: You know, it's not the. 2407 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:54,160 Speaker 2: Blind side necessarily, but still, you know, I think the 2408 01:56:54,240 --> 01:56:56,400 Speaker 2: only way to truly find out is to literally get 2409 01:56:56,440 --> 01:56:59,520 Speaker 2: him back into practice and to see, all right, can 2410 01:56:59,600 --> 01:57:03,440 Speaker 2: he whatever scan a defense and properly see you know, 2411 01:57:03,720 --> 01:57:06,880 Speaker 2: where you know guys are and how his guys are 2412 01:57:06,880 --> 01:57:08,640 Speaker 2: getting open and all of that. And you can insert 2413 01:57:08,680 --> 01:57:13,400 Speaker 2: your Anthony Richardson accuracy jokes in here, but you know 2414 01:57:13,520 --> 01:57:16,680 Speaker 2: that element is just a little different. And again, chainsa 2415 01:57:16,680 --> 01:57:19,120 Speaker 2: Can officially ruled him out for Monday, night, So that 2416 01:57:19,160 --> 01:57:22,200 Speaker 2: would leave just two games left. And you know, to me, 2417 01:57:22,440 --> 01:57:24,640 Speaker 2: if you have questions about him doing the whole operation, 2418 01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:27,080 Speaker 2: could you at least get him involved in short yardage. 2419 01:57:27,920 --> 01:57:30,160 Speaker 2: I think that's probably the next question for me. I 2420 01:57:30,320 --> 01:57:32,320 Speaker 2: don't know if I've ruled out him being the starting 2421 01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:35,200 Speaker 2: quarterback this season, but you know, for the last few weeks, 2422 01:57:35,240 --> 01:57:37,160 Speaker 2: I've been skeptical about it, and then I continue to 2423 01:57:37,200 --> 01:57:38,200 Speaker 2: be well. 2424 01:57:38,160 --> 01:57:39,240 Speaker 3: It's hypothetical, Kevin. 2425 01:57:40,320 --> 01:57:43,200 Speaker 2: You guy hit with the hypothetical response a couple of 2426 01:57:43,240 --> 01:57:44,000 Speaker 2: times yesterday. 2427 01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:46,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not living in reality. 2428 01:57:46,200 --> 01:57:48,240 Speaker 2: There are a few coaches that go there a lot. Oh, 2429 01:57:48,280 --> 01:57:50,280 Speaker 2: that's a hypothetical. I'm not I'm not getting into that. 2430 01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:53,040 Speaker 2: But again, I Chanine usually doesn't go there, but he did. 2431 01:57:53,240 --> 01:57:53,440 Speaker 13: Yeah. 2432 01:57:53,520 --> 01:57:55,400 Speaker 8: But also, he's never going to give us any gang 2433 01:57:55,480 --> 01:57:59,040 Speaker 8: plan stuff. But I do think that'll become a louder conversation, Kevin, 2434 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:04,520 Speaker 8: if he is fine throughout his first week of practice, 2435 01:58:05,240 --> 01:58:08,920 Speaker 8: as a fine second week of practice, and you feel 2436 01:58:08,960 --> 01:58:11,520 Speaker 8: comfortable putting him out there in a live football game, 2437 01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:14,879 Speaker 8: because yeah, at that point, you should not be bashful 2438 01:58:15,040 --> 01:58:18,400 Speaker 8: in trying to find any way to maximize whatever talent 2439 01:58:18,480 --> 01:58:19,000 Speaker 8: you have on your. 2440 01:58:18,960 --> 01:58:22,400 Speaker 2: Team to get into the playoffs if they're eliminated, do 2441 01:58:22,480 --> 01:58:24,080 Speaker 2: you think that will weigh on chainstiking? 2442 01:58:25,080 --> 01:58:25,680 Speaker 3: Who starts? 2443 01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:28,360 Speaker 2: Yes, Now again, they can't be eliminated to Week eighteen, 2444 01:58:28,440 --> 01:58:31,000 Speaker 2: even with a loss on Monday Night. Like I think 2445 01:58:31,040 --> 01:58:34,120 Speaker 2: it'll definitely be Philip Rivers each of the next two weeks. 2446 01:58:35,440 --> 01:58:37,880 Speaker 2: But the Week eighteen game, if you're eliminated, with that 2447 01:58:38,040 --> 01:58:40,720 Speaker 2: influence you anyway and say we don't need to see 2448 01:58:40,760 --> 01:58:43,800 Speaker 2: the forty four year old. I'd rather see either Richardson 2449 01:58:43,960 --> 01:58:46,720 Speaker 2: or Riley Leonard. Well, what if the forty four year 2450 01:58:46,720 --> 01:58:49,080 Speaker 2: olds is to come back? Got to see how he's 2451 01:58:49,120 --> 01:58:52,200 Speaker 2: looking for next year? But are you serious with that statement? 2452 01:58:52,440 --> 01:58:53,920 Speaker 3: I'm definitely not serious with that statement. 2453 01:58:53,960 --> 01:58:56,240 Speaker 8: But who knows Philip Rivers told us? 2454 01:58:56,400 --> 01:58:58,800 Speaker 2: Because I don't think it's a dumb question, knowing how 2455 01:58:58,840 --> 01:58:59,879 Speaker 2: Philip Rivers operates. 2456 01:59:00,560 --> 01:59:01,280 Speaker 3: Oh, I think it is. 2457 01:59:01,720 --> 01:59:05,080 Speaker 2: There is if you think Daniel Jones is not going 2458 01:59:05,160 --> 01:59:09,760 Speaker 2: to be ready until mid October, you don't think that 2459 01:59:09,920 --> 01:59:12,280 Speaker 2: thought will cross the Colts Mines at all this offseason 2460 01:59:12,280 --> 01:59:14,840 Speaker 2: And say, you know what, Philip Rivers, you give us 2461 01:59:15,200 --> 01:59:18,040 Speaker 2: five games and then you go coach your son in 2462 01:59:18,040 --> 01:59:19,680 Speaker 2: a senior year high school football. 2463 01:59:19,480 --> 01:59:20,240 Speaker 3: Man bump that. 2464 01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:22,840 Speaker 8: If that is even a conversation, he need to call 2465 01:59:22,920 --> 01:59:24,720 Speaker 8: me immediately so I can yell at him and get 2466 01:59:24,760 --> 01:59:27,600 Speaker 8: him out of that conversation. No, you need to be 2467 01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:31,560 Speaker 8: rolling with Anthony Richardson, Riley Leonard mac Jones. 2468 01:59:31,320 --> 01:59:31,920 Speaker 2: For all I care. 2469 01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:33,120 Speaker 8: You cannot run it back. 2470 01:59:33,160 --> 01:59:36,120 Speaker 2: If Richardson's got impaired vision moving forward. 2471 01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:39,280 Speaker 8: Then you rolled Riley Leonard. He's not got any, doesn't 2472 01:59:39,280 --> 01:59:40,280 Speaker 8: have any vision issues. 2473 01:59:41,280 --> 01:59:43,200 Speaker 2: You play the young guy. They're going with Rivers right 2474 01:59:43,240 --> 01:59:43,960 Speaker 2: now over Leonard. 2475 01:59:44,960 --> 01:59:47,360 Speaker 8: That is true, But at that point, I feel like 2476 01:59:47,800 --> 01:59:50,760 Speaker 8: if this experiment fails, which right now it is failing, 2477 01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:54,160 Speaker 8: then why would you run it back with If Philip 2478 01:59:54,240 --> 01:59:57,800 Speaker 8: Rivers starts four straight games for you and he loses 2479 01:59:57,880 --> 01:59:59,800 Speaker 8: all of them, and you tell me you want to 2480 01:59:59,840 --> 02:00:02,680 Speaker 8: run it back with him next year, I'm going to 2481 02:00:02,760 --> 02:00:04,080 Speaker 8: tell you you're out of your mind. 2482 02:00:06,160 --> 02:00:07,360 Speaker 3: I'm mad as you even brought this up. 2483 02:00:07,400 --> 02:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Now. 2484 02:00:07,520 --> 02:00:09,320 Speaker 3: I feel like my blood pressure is rising. Don't do 2485 02:00:09,400 --> 02:00:12,480 Speaker 3: that to me, Kevin. I don't like yelling at you. 2486 02:00:12,680 --> 02:00:15,360 Speaker 2: Imagine what James is going to think when it actually happens. 2487 02:00:15,560 --> 02:00:18,160 Speaker 2: I mean, that's gonna be Caleb here. I mean, it's 2488 02:00:18,680 --> 02:00:19,600 Speaker 2: quarterback situation. 2489 02:00:19,720 --> 02:00:21,040 Speaker 8: Should let's not act like. 2490 02:00:21,520 --> 02:00:22,920 Speaker 2: Anything is off the table here. 2491 02:00:23,040 --> 02:00:24,960 Speaker 8: It should be off the table. You know what, I 2492 02:00:25,000 --> 02:00:26,200 Speaker 8: should take the table and flip it. 2493 02:00:26,320 --> 02:00:29,080 Speaker 2: No, no, don't do that. Come from someone that told 2494 02:00:29,080 --> 02:00:30,120 Speaker 2: me to shut up last week. 2495 02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:31,640 Speaker 3: I feel I was close. 2496 02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:33,320 Speaker 2: I feel like James is approaching that I was close. 2497 02:00:33,360 --> 02:00:34,760 Speaker 2: And we do have twenty minutes left in the show, 2498 02:00:34,960 --> 02:00:37,200 Speaker 2: but we'll do it one final time here. This is 2499 02:00:37,240 --> 02:00:41,600 Speaker 2: a fan morning show on a Friday. Great work from 2500 02:00:41,680 --> 02:00:47,120 Speaker 2: Caleb Zuber filling in for Mark Dyton, Mark from Munster's 2501 02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:49,200 Speaker 2: how we've talked about him on this Friday morning. He 2502 02:00:49,240 --> 02:00:51,040 Speaker 2: did a call in earlier. You can check that out, 2503 02:00:51,720 --> 02:00:55,400 Speaker 2: Fucking Little Bears Stadium on the segment and the lions 2504 02:00:55,480 --> 02:00:58,680 Speaker 2: Den Fair Oaks Farm or you can put the stadium 2505 02:00:58,680 --> 02:00:59,880 Speaker 2: next year. Put him back, you know by all the 2506 02:01:00,040 --> 02:01:02,920 Speaker 2: windmills up there.

He joined us 2509 02:01:09,400 --> 02:01:11,800 Speaker 2: a little bit earlier in the show. Again, it's kind 2510 02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:13,760 Speaker 2: of odd, you know, usually on the Friday show we 2511 02:01:13,840 --> 02:01:17,120 Speaker 2: were in full like Colts game prep. But we will 2512 02:01:17,240 --> 02:01:19,920 Speaker 2: have another show before the balls kicked off and that's 2513 02:01:19,960 --> 02:01:24,560 Speaker 2: with the Monday Night are coming up here in week sixteen. 2514 02:01:24,680 --> 02:01:28,440 Speaker 2: Reminder from our airwaves standpoint, we'll have a lot from 2515 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:32,680 Speaker 2: a college football standpoint and NFL this weekend, Indiana fans, 2516 02:01:32,920 --> 02:01:36,000 Speaker 2: you will find out the winner tonight Alabama and Oklahoma. 2517 02:01:36,520 --> 02:01:39,200 Speaker 2: A really small spread. I think Alabama's slight favorite maybe 2518 02:01:39,240 --> 02:01:41,880 Speaker 2: in that one. That game is tonight and the winner 2519 02:01:41,920 --> 02:01:44,520 Speaker 2: will take on Indiana in the Rose Bowl. You have 2520 02:01:44,600 --> 02:01:47,920 Speaker 2: the three college football playoff games.

That game 2530 02:02:27,400 --> 02:02:31,120 Speaker 8: I believe will decide or have a huge implication on 2531 02:02:31,240 --> 02:02:33,880 Speaker 8: who wins that division. So I'm very excited to watch 2532 02:02:33,960 --> 02:02:34,280 Speaker 8: that one. 2533 02:02:34,480 --> 02:02:36,000 Speaker 2: Caleb, what you got for most entertaining. 2534 02:02:36,120 --> 02:02:38,840 Speaker 7: That's where I'm going as well. And I honestly think 2535 02:02:38,880 --> 02:02:41,480 Speaker 7: when these two teams played two weeks ago, I think 2536 02:02:41,520 --> 02:02:43,920 Speaker 7: it was up in Lambeau I thought it was just 2537 02:02:44,080 --> 02:02:46,040 Speaker 7: a real like you know, it's the four to twenty 2538 02:02:46,120 --> 02:02:49,680 Speaker 7: five slot, it's the primetime Fox game, and you know 2539 02:02:49,840 --> 02:02:52,280 Speaker 7: the night falls on Lambeau Field, and he had two 2540 02:02:52,440 --> 02:02:54,560 Speaker 7: historic franchises going at it falls. 2541 02:02:56,120 --> 02:03:02,080 Speaker 2: I tried to be NFL film frozen Ton, and so I. 2542 02:03:02,120 --> 02:03:05,560 Speaker 7: Think that happening at Soldier Field, which we don't know 2543 02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:07,920 Speaker 7: how many more games are left as Soldier Field, I guess. 2544 02:03:08,000 --> 02:03:11,000 Speaker 2: So I think that's where I'm going as well. Yeah, 2545 02:03:11,040 --> 02:03:15,320 Speaker 2: in three years, they're playing that game in Maryville. I'm 2546 02:03:15,400 --> 02:03:17,320 Speaker 2: probably stretching a little bit here, But is the Philip 2547 02:03:17,360 --> 02:03:19,120 Speaker 2: Rivers thing not still entertaining to people? 2548 02:03:19,560 --> 02:03:19,600 Speaker 11: No? 2549 02:03:19,960 --> 02:03:20,200 Speaker 13: It is? 2550 02:03:20,360 --> 02:03:22,600 Speaker 2: It is Could you go Colts forty nine? 2551 02:03:22,680 --> 02:03:22,960 Speaker 11: Ers can? 2552 02:03:23,320 --> 02:03:27,160 Speaker 2: Okay? Maybe Chargers? Cowboys is a little intriguing to me. 2553 02:03:28,040 --> 02:03:31,240 Speaker 2: I guess just remind everybody from a cult standpoint, you 2554 02:03:31,400 --> 02:03:35,640 Speaker 2: need to be Cowboys and Raiders fans in particular this weekend. 2555 02:03:35,680 --> 02:03:37,480 Speaker 2: I gotta throw a couple other teams in there, but 2556 02:03:37,600 --> 02:03:41,120 Speaker 2: let's just start there. You really want to be Raiders 2557 02:03:41,200 --> 02:03:44,360 Speaker 2: over Texans, which good luck, that's a big spread, and 2558 02:03:45,000 --> 02:03:47,080 Speaker 2: Cowboys over Chargers, which a little bit more on the 2559 02:03:47,160 --> 02:03:49,480 Speaker 2: realistic factor. All the Cowboys don't have a ton left 2560 02:03:49,560 --> 02:03:52,280 Speaker 2: to play for here are they even alive? The Cowboys, 2561 02:03:52,440 --> 02:03:54,960 Speaker 2: I think they still have a thinky win three and 2562 02:03:55,000 --> 02:03:58,520 Speaker 2: Philly's got to lose three, yes for them to get in. Okay, James, 2563 02:03:58,560 --> 02:04:00,800 Speaker 2: where are you going for the hardest game to pick? 2564 02:04:01,480 --> 02:04:05,080 Speaker 8: So the hardest game to pick, And this might be 2565 02:04:05,240 --> 02:04:11,080 Speaker 8: a little crazy, but I might go Chiefs Titans. Yeah, 2566 02:04:11,280 --> 02:04:13,840 Speaker 8: because I'm just not sure what the Chiefs will look 2567 02:04:14,000 --> 02:04:17,040 Speaker 8: like with Gardner Minshew from a morale standpoint. You just 2568 02:04:17,080 --> 02:04:19,600 Speaker 8: lost Patrick Mahomes, you out of the playoffs for the 2569 02:04:19,640 --> 02:04:23,440 Speaker 8: first time in forever. The Titans cam Ward, I never 2570 02:04:23,480 --> 02:04:25,880 Speaker 8: know what to expect with those dudes, So yeah, that's 2571 02:04:25,920 --> 02:04:26,360 Speaker 8: a weird one. 2572 02:04:26,400 --> 02:04:28,240 Speaker 3: I would just stay away from Caleb. 2573 02:04:28,400 --> 02:04:31,800 Speaker 7: I think that's a great call, James, I was debating now, 2574 02:04:31,840 --> 02:04:35,280 Speaker 7: and I also think Patriots Ravens. I mean they have 2575 02:04:35,560 --> 02:04:38,400 Speaker 7: the Ravens as a three point favorite in that game 2576 02:04:38,760 --> 02:04:42,400 Speaker 7: home favorite, correct, Yes, And you know it'd be interesting 2577 02:04:42,480 --> 02:04:45,280 Speaker 7: to see how the Patriots respond after last week. Kind 2578 02:04:45,320 --> 02:04:47,320 Speaker 7: of getting punched in the mouth by Josh Allen and 2579 02:04:47,360 --> 02:04:49,040 Speaker 7: the Bills, And I think this is a really big 2580 02:04:49,120 --> 02:04:51,120 Speaker 7: test for them, but I would have to believe like 2581 02:04:51,880 --> 02:04:53,680 Speaker 7: that they're going to play well in that game. We'll 2582 02:04:53,720 --> 02:04:55,960 Speaker 7: see how Lamar's been under the weather, so that's a 2583 02:04:56,000 --> 02:04:58,920 Speaker 7: whole storyline this week. He missed practice, so I think 2584 02:04:58,960 --> 02:04:59,640 Speaker 7: that's where I'm going. 2585 02:05:00,200 --> 02:05:02,640 Speaker 2: We get into these late season games and I often 2586 02:05:02,960 --> 02:05:06,920 Speaker 2: pick the hardest games of who the bleep cares? Can 2587 02:05:06,960 --> 02:05:09,840 Speaker 2: you guys name the starting quarterbacks? And Saints Jets? 2588 02:05:11,440 --> 02:05:11,600 Speaker 11: Is it? 2589 02:05:11,680 --> 02:05:12,320 Speaker 2: Tyler Shuck? 2590 02:05:12,360 --> 02:05:13,640 Speaker 10: Still right? 2591 02:05:13,840 --> 02:05:14,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2592 02:05:14,040 --> 02:05:14,840 Speaker 8: And Brady Cook? 2593 02:05:15,120 --> 02:05:17,720 Speaker 2: I believe Wow, I didn't have the Jets. You guys 2594 02:05:17,760 --> 02:05:19,880 Speaker 2: are sick. Could you have named the Saints starter James? 2595 02:05:19,920 --> 02:05:21,880 Speaker 2: There's no way. Could you have named both? Yeah? 2596 02:05:22,160 --> 02:05:23,400 Speaker 3: Mainly because I'm going to degenerate. 2597 02:05:23,840 --> 02:05:27,080 Speaker 2: Hey, Shuck's playing well, don't look now, Kevin. The Saints 2598 02:05:27,120 --> 02:05:29,120 Speaker 2: are favored by four and a half at home. I mean, A, 2599 02:05:29,320 --> 02:05:32,520 Speaker 2: who cares? And B who the hell knows? So that's amazing. 2600 02:05:32,560 --> 02:05:35,360 Speaker 8: You don't think I know who caught Brady Cook's first 2601 02:05:35,400 --> 02:05:36,200 Speaker 8: touchdown pass? 2602 02:05:36,440 --> 02:05:39,240 Speaker 2: Shout out out of Mitchell? Come on now, that was 2603 02:05:39,280 --> 02:05:41,680 Speaker 2: a hell of a catch by Adi Mitchell, Okay, where 2604 02:05:41,680 --> 02:05:42,680 Speaker 2: are you going for the easiest game? 2605 02:05:43,560 --> 02:05:45,760 Speaker 8: Easiest game on the schedule? 2606 02:05:47,000 --> 02:05:47,240 Speaker 12: Boy? 2607 02:05:47,480 --> 02:05:49,200 Speaker 8: I want to say the Colts, but that certainly is 2608 02:05:49,240 --> 02:05:50,960 Speaker 8: not the case, you know, I can't say that with 2609 02:05:51,160 --> 02:05:54,720 Speaker 8: any type of confidence. I think I might roll with 2610 02:05:55,080 --> 02:05:57,000 Speaker 8: the Bills over the Browns on the ten and a 2611 02:05:57,040 --> 02:05:58,200 Speaker 8: half point favorites, which is. 2612 02:05:58,200 --> 02:05:58,920 Speaker 3: A lot of points. 2613 02:05:59,040 --> 02:05:59,400 Speaker 13: What is it? 2614 02:05:59,560 --> 02:06:00,000 Speaker 2: Ten and a half? 2615 02:06:00,320 --> 02:06:02,840 Speaker 8: Ten and a half? But I just feel like, after 2616 02:06:02,880 --> 02:06:04,760 Speaker 8: what we saw with the Browns last week, the Bills 2617 02:06:04,800 --> 02:06:06,600 Speaker 8: are probably gonna do the same thing. 2618 02:06:07,240 --> 02:06:07,960 Speaker 2: What do you got, Caleb? 2619 02:06:08,080 --> 02:06:11,600 Speaker 7: I don't really feel good about any of these, but 2620 02:06:11,880 --> 02:06:14,320 Speaker 7: I think the Lions will step up at home over 2621 02:06:14,360 --> 02:06:15,000 Speaker 7: the Steelers. 2622 02:06:15,200 --> 02:06:16,720 Speaker 2: I think it'll be a good game. 2623 02:06:16,800 --> 02:06:21,320 Speaker 7: Now Lions are seven point favorites, but I just believe 2624 02:06:21,440 --> 02:06:24,160 Speaker 7: in their offensive talent and I think they'll get it 2625 02:06:24,240 --> 02:06:25,560 Speaker 7: done there, which, you know. 2626 02:06:25,640 --> 02:06:28,200 Speaker 2: Weirdly, there is some Colts impact there. If the Steelers 2627 02:06:28,200 --> 02:06:30,760 Speaker 2: all of a sudden become a wildcard team, they do 2628 02:06:30,920 --> 02:06:33,600 Speaker 2: have the head to head over Indy. Now, again, they 2629 02:06:33,640 --> 02:06:35,240 Speaker 2: would have to lose, I think, a game to get 2630 02:06:35,280 --> 02:06:37,640 Speaker 2: in the wildcard picture, so their record might not be 2631 02:06:37,680 --> 02:06:39,360 Speaker 2: as good as the Colts, but just something to keep 2632 02:06:39,400 --> 02:06:42,320 Speaker 2: an eye on there. I'm gonna take the former Colts quarterback. 2633 02:06:42,360 --> 02:06:45,120 Speaker 2: I like Jacoby rssetting the Cardinals favored by three over 2634 02:06:45,200 --> 02:06:48,320 Speaker 2: the Falcons. I think the Falcons have thrown in the towel. 2635 02:06:49,360 --> 02:06:52,600 Speaker 2: I get the Kirk Cousins whatever is maybe some level 2636 02:06:52,600 --> 02:06:55,960 Speaker 2: of competent, but I'm gonna go there for my easiest game. Again, 2637 02:06:56,040 --> 02:06:58,040 Speaker 2: not a slate that a ton stood out to me 2638 02:06:58,920 --> 02:07:02,840 Speaker 2: from an obvious standpoint there, So again reminder, we will 2639 02:07:02,880 --> 02:07:09,000 Speaker 2: have two NFL games tomorrow. Both of those NFC games, 2640 02:07:09,120 --> 02:07:13,920 Speaker 2: it's Eagles Commanders in the four o'clock window for thirty 2641 02:07:14,000 --> 02:07:17,560 Speaker 2: window and then Mark's Bears No five o'clock excuse me 2642 02:07:17,960 --> 02:07:21,480 Speaker 2: on Fox tomorrow Eagles at Commander's and then Packers Bears. 2643 02:07:21,560 --> 02:07:26,600 Speaker 2: That is eight twenty coming up tomorrow, James. The news 2644 02:07:26,640 --> 02:07:29,480 Speaker 2: item to watch today for the Colts would be what. 2645 02:07:31,800 --> 02:07:35,960 Speaker 8: How does Bernard Ryman look, perhaps on the practice field 2646 02:07:36,040 --> 02:07:38,840 Speaker 8: or not, Sauce Gardner, things of that nature. 2647 02:07:38,880 --> 02:07:42,560 Speaker 2: I would say, I feel like Sauces a little. Well, 2648 02:07:43,560 --> 02:07:45,600 Speaker 2: if you're gonna say one of the other practices, I'd 2649 02:07:45,640 --> 02:07:48,840 Speaker 2: probably say Sauce before Ryman. But I don't get the vibe. 2650 02:07:49,160 --> 02:07:52,000 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily have a great feel on the sauce situation, 2651 02:07:52,200 --> 02:07:54,520 Speaker 2: but that would be definitely be one to keep any 2652 02:07:54,640 --> 02:07:56,840 Speaker 2: for what to tours San Francisco. Ricky Piersoll their top 2653 02:07:56,920 --> 02:07:59,600 Speaker 2: white out right now did miss yesterday's practice knee and 2654 02:07:59,720 --> 02:08:02,440 Speaker 2: ink issues, so I think that is the one big 2655 02:08:02,480 --> 02:08:05,920 Speaker 2: one to watch for San Francisco as the week continues 2656 02:08:06,320 --> 02:08:09,200 Speaker 2: to move on. Thank you everybody out there. I know 2657 02:08:09,240 --> 02:08:10,680 Speaker 2: a ton of people are going to be traveling here 2658 02:08:10,760 --> 02:08:12,760 Speaker 2: coming up this weekend, maybe not be with us on 2659 02:08:12,840 --> 02:08:15,760 Speaker 2: the airwaves coming up next week, So safe travels everybody 2660 02:08:15,800 --> 02:08:18,240 Speaker 2: this time of year.
