1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: So where are we at with the Colts bringing in

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,039
Speaker 1: forty four year old Philip Rivers.

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 2: He was signed to the team today.

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: Technically as of right now, he's a member of the

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: practice team. But let's be real here, Yeah, he's not

6
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: coming out of retirement to be on the practice team.

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers. I have good and fun memories of Philip

8
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 3: Rivers back in the COVID year of twenty twenty.

9
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 2: Right let the Colts do a playoff appearance.

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I remember sitting there with you and both of

11
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 3: our bosses and Lucas Oil, and there was like three

12
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: thousand people in his sixty thousand capacity stadium, and I

13
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 3: was standing up and Philip Rivers was about to get

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: into the end zone, and I remember a lady going,

15
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 3: can you sit down place?

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 2: There's only like eight people in the road, and she

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: said yelling, get you to sit down. I'll never forget that.

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 3: But can he can he still throw a ball? Can

19
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 3: he still sling it?

20
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: So he had to work out with the Colts last

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: night's and according to reports, it looked good.

22
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 2: He still had the juice on the ball. Now.

23
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: JJ Watt, who's now an analyst for CBS, he went

24
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: on with McAfee earlier and said what he had learned

25
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: in some of these TV meetings was that Philip Rivers

26
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: high school team, because he was coaching high school football,

27
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: his son's the quarterback. They run the exact same offense

28
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: as the Indianapolis Colts, and he's been talking to coach

29
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: steik In throughout the year and watching tape on the

30
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: Colts all throughout the year because they run the same offense.

31
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: Well, Stikeen is an interesting character depending on what you know.

32
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: If you're a Colts fan, you have certain opinions.

33
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: We'll get the Steichen later on, but I'm just saying

34
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: he knows the playbook. It's not like this is something

35
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: totally foreign. His high school team ran the same offense.

36
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 2: Has he it worked out?

37
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: How can you come back and be a quarterback after

38
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: five years or four years? You even go through an

39
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: NFL workout?

40
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: He did apparently, and he looked great, and that's why

41
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: he was signed today.

42
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm projecting here because I'm forty nine and I

43
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 3: take the elevator to the fifth floor.

44
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean.

45
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to say Philip Rivers is in a little

46
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: bit better shape than you are.

47
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: Just a little.

48
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 3: How many quarterbacks have the Colts, for God's sake since

49
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 3: Andrew Luck quote unquote retired? How many acts have they

50
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 3: had since twenty ninety? Like? Is it ten? Is it twelve?

51
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: It's it's thirteen. I mean, I don't have it right,

52
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: Kobe Brissette, it's.

53
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:46,519
Speaker 1: Grission Wentz, Matt Ryan Les, Nick Foles, Matt.

54
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: Ryan Flack, Joey Flax, uh Ellen, Oh my gosh.

55
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 1: I mean, but listen, you guys can all crap and

56
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: you're being such a downer about this whole thing, and

57
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: you're pissing me off about good. Would you rather have

58
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame kid that's not need good in the

59
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: game right now? Oh and stop at Notre Dame people,

60
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: This kid's not need good. Yeah, I'm telling you right now,

61
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 1: old man Rivers off the scrap heap is better than

62
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 1: Geno Smith at the Raiders. Whatever the Saints are limping

63
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: to the finish line with, Yeah, Justin Fields or Tyrod

64
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: Taylor or any one of these turns the Jets are

65
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: rolling out.

66
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: There is the situation ideal.

67
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: No, but I'm telling you there are worse players in

68
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: the league right now than Philip Riffers.

69
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: Well, I'm telling you what I'm gonna say is it

70
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: makes the Colts a whole hell of a lot more interesting.

71
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 3: I will if whatever happens, whatever plays out in the

72
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 3: next couple of days, if we see Philip Rivers on

73
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 3: the field in Seattle Away, that is compelling TV unless

74
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: he completely creps the bed and then it's still compelling.

75
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: Right, And if he craps the bed, then how is

76
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: that in different than what Anthony Richardson.

77
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: Or the Riley Kid would have done?

78
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, like we're acting like, uh this Notre Dame Kid.

79
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: Riley is the second coming of Tom Brady. I mean

80
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: he might be. Okay, one day.

81
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 3: I forgot about Gardner minshew by Mania, which wasn't wasn't

82
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 3: completely unsatisfied or dissatisfied with Minna back in the day.

83
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: Again, none of those dudes took you to the playoffs, though,

84
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers took you to the playoffs. Uh hell yeah, Okay.

85
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: Rob Schneider, comedian actor extraordinaire on behalf of Colts fans

86
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 1: like me. Maybe not Nigel because he's out on him,

87
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: but people like me. What do you have to say

88
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: about Philip Rivers?

89
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: That old nasty years in the end Zone, we got

90
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 2: to win.

91
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: Let's go. He's forty four, he's older than Riley Leonard,

92
00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: he's older than Tyler Warren. Like his kids, I mean,

93
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 1: his oldest son is older than Riley Leonard and Tyler Warres.

94
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: He's got like eighteen kids though, Right, why.

95
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: Not screw it, Throw it against the wall and see

96
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: if it sticks. Man, in this type of situation, what

97
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: do you got to lose?

98
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 3: I like Hammer's optimism. I feel like Bluto right.

99
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 2: Now in Animal House.

100
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: This could be the greatest night of our lives, and

101
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna let it be the worst.

102
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: Well, not me. I'm not gonna take this
