1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: Survive in advance.

2
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 2: That was the story last night inside of gamebridge Field

3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 2: owns the Fever extend their season by another game. So

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,319
Speaker 2: if you want to, you can make the long trip

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: down I sixty five coming up tomorrow night to the

6
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 2: atl that's where the Fever will play a deciding game

7
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 2: three and I sixty five might be a popular one

8
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 2: coming up here this week and Colts and Titans we

9
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 2: start to shift gears there coming up as their first

10
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: practice of the week is today. Good Wednesday morning to you,

11
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 2: Kevin Bowen, James Boyd, Mark Dyked and Jeff Ricord as

12
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 2: well with us here. I think we all have our

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 2: hand raised and a little bit of tough traffic on

14
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: this one.

15
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 3: Morning getting the tarty slips out because I haven't and

16
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 3: Jane and Jeff were barely here. We're like ninety seconds

17
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 3: away from showtime, like Market James Show Today, What's happened?

18
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 4: I was the first person here. I like it, Yes,

19
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 4: I was.

20
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 5: I have about a twenty seven to twenty eight minute

21
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 5: commute to work almost every day. I usually get here,

22
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 5: what about fifteen twenty minutes for the show starts. You're

23
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 5: always in here. It took me forty seven minutes to

24
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 5: get in here today. There were roots closed, there were

25
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 5: trucks backed up. I don't know what the deal was,

26
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 5: but it took forever.

27
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 4: This man, All i'm here is the excuses.

28
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 5: I'm here.

29
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 3: I got what kind of sord this TARTI slip? See

30
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 3: me after school.

31
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 5: James is enjoying this one.

32
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, hey, I fall started. I've owned my

33
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:21,839
Speaker 6: false starts. That's a false start.

34
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 7: Job.

35
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 5: Like, good morning, guys, how are we doing today? We

36
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,559
Speaker 5: are good Beaver still alive after a dominant game last

37
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 5: night over the Atlanta Dreamed.

38
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, we went over that before you got here.

39
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 6: You know, I'm joking, but yes, I did go to

40
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 6: that game last night, Jeff, it was rocking. We'll get

41
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 6: into it, but obviously I think all of us know

42
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 6: that third quarter sequence to kind of end that frame

43
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 6: was probably the biggest momentum swing in that game. You

44
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 6: go from you know, being up by a few points

45
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 6: to going up I believe fifteen heading into the fourth

46
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 6: quarter after that LEXI hole three off of the steal

47
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 6: from Kelsey Mitchell. So great team effort by that group.

48
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 6: And now you go into a due die you know,

49
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,919
Speaker 6: wann to take all Game three where anything can happen.

50
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 4: So if you're Indiana, you feel great.

51
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 6: If you're Atlanta you do feel good about going back

52
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 6: home to extend your season, but there's some trepidation there

53
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 6: because again, anything can happen into game three.

54
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: I think this new format favors the road team so much.

55
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: I think the ability to get one on your home

56
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: floor and tie it up and now put the weight

57
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: of the world on the home team in game three.

58
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: We saw it in the second game last night. It

59
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 1: was a huge comeback by the Storm. But now Las

60
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: Vegas is going to feel that coming up here the

61
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: other night. I'll be curious to see how the two

62
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 1: games tonight go. I know, you know Minnesota is a

63
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: little bit of a different animal, but I just think

64
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,239
Speaker 1: the one one one format where you now shift gears

65
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: to go to that road venue in game two is

66
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: super beneficial and James you can speak to it much

67
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: better than I. But from the couch, the end of

68
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: that third quarter flurry, the Boston layup, Jay Petty gets

69
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: a tip, Kelsey Mitchell kind of secures it and then

70
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: around the horn to Lexi Hall. That felt a little

71
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: a la Game six of the Finals. Just some of

72
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: those moments to call where gamebridge Fieldhouse kind of just erupts,

73
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: and then Halliburton takes the mic and tries to do

74
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: his mac fee impression. Like all of that, I just

75
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 1: thought was, Yeah, I realize on a scale of it,

76
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: it's not at the NBA Finals level. But again, for

77
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: the Fever fans, especially the pre Kaitlyn Clark fans, they

78
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: deserved last night watching everything that they've had to over

79
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: the last decade, and especially the season where you've had

80
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: so many ups and down so it seemed like a

81
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: pretty cool and pretty big atmosphere there late third quarter.

82
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 5: I think one of the storylines too for this Fever

83
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 5: team is Caitlin Clark has been injured for so long

84
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,839
Speaker 5: and missed such a big part of the season, and James,

85
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 5: you've been down there a few times. The crowd just

86
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 5: keeps showing up, and their enthusiasm for that team has

87
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 5: not dampened one bit. They've just kept it rolling in there.

88
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 6: I will say to a degree though, Jeff, it really

89
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 6: wasn't packed. I don't think that was a sellout last night.

90
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 6: It wasn't as many people was expected, even though I

91
00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 6: was driving in.

92
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 4: But for those who did go, I mean they were

93
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 4: a loud.

94
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 6: That was a lot that I've heard it probably in

95
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 6: the last couple of years, even with Kaitlyn Clark playing,

96
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 6: especially that third quarter run to end that period.

97
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: So yeah, there were some empty cs there. Boy.

98
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 6: You know, I think it's similar to how the Colts

99
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 6: fans probably fell after Week one. It's like those who

100
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 6: showed up and had some loyalty there and not saying that,

101
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 6: you know, you don't have a choice in your fandom,

102
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 6: but those who showed up got rewarded with the big

103
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 6: time game. I thought Kelsey Mitchell led the way and

104
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 6: really early on you all, her ability to knock down

105
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 6: the three ball when they hadn't had you know, many

106
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 6: may threes. That last game shot very poorly from three

107
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 6: at one point, I want to say Kelsey had you know,

108
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 6: four threes made, and the Atlanta's Raam might have had

109
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 6: one or two. So the three point variants kind of

110
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 6: swung back in the Fever's favor, but again survived and

111
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 6: advanced with the very you know, I can't even say

112
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 6: it's a gritty win. It was just a good win

113
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 6: because they beat him pretty handedly.

114
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that last five seconds and I guess eight

115
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 5: point eight seconds with five points at the end of

116
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 5: the third quarter, you just knew that the game was

117
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 5: kind of over at that point in time. I know

118
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 5: there was still some work to be done, but the Fever,

119
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 5: who end up winning by seventeen, really put the hammer

120
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 5: down in the very end of the third quarter. Big

121
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 5: three there at the end by Lexi Hall, and everybody

122
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 5: was fired up and good to go, and so it

123
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 5: was a lot of fun to watch last night. Also

124
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 5: what was fun is to read all the national writers

125
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 5: in the National Football leg yesterday trying to make sense

126
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 5: of the first two weeks, and for the most part,

127
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 5: it feels to me, Kevin just reading a bunch of

128
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 5: stuff yesterday, like the NFL world. The media is like,

129
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 5: are the Colts that good? Yeah, we think so. Is

130
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 5: that kind of the vibe you got, yes, sir.

131
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think. You know, anytime you get into September

132
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: NFL takeaways, it's always like, Okay, who's for real and

133
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: who is for not? And that obviously right now applies

134
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: to the Colts, because even when you look at the

135
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: other AFC teams, you know, it wouldn't be the most

136
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: stunning thing I think a month ago to have said, hey,

137
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: the Chargers could be two to zero. They were a

138
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: playoff team last year. Certainly the Bills speak to that.

139
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: Cincinnati maybe is a little bit more of an unknown,

140
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: and obviously the Burrow injury totally shapes how people probably

141
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: view them moving forward. But you know, they were one

142
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: of those teams didn't miss the playoffs or missed the

143
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: playoffs the year before. You feel like they could have

144
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: a bounce back year. The Colts, I don't necessarily think

145
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: a lot of people probably would have you know, slotted

146
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: them into that conversation here, And obviously Daniel Jones just

147
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: that element to me again exiting Sunday, it's you know,

148
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: in Week one, the offense was great and the defense

149
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: is great, So the question was, okay, what would continued

150
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: week two. If we had that conversation last week, I

151
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: would have said the defense. I would have been more

152
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: confident in the defense doing what they did in Week one,

153
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: and it was actually Jones and the offense that did

154
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: it against that Denver defense. So that is a obviously

155
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: a big, big storyline. And now you get, you know,

156
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: probably your easiest road game of the year and you

157
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 1: get a defensive right game. You know that atmosphere that

158
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: is a party atmosphere that is not a road NFL atmosphere,

159
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: that's not a menacing NFL atmosphere. So you have a

160
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: golden opportunity coming up Sunday afternoon to stretch it to

161
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: three and zero and then a really great game on paper.

162
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: I think in week four you traveling out to LA

163
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: to play the Rams.

164
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,679
Speaker 5: The game against the Titans in Nashville. Those are always

165
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 5: the ones that scare me. James boyd Ah, it's not great.

166
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 5: Everything Kevin said is absolutely true. It's a rookie quarterback,

167
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 5: they haven't looked good their first couple of weeks. It's

168
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 5: not the most intimidating place to go play. Those are

169
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 5: always the ones. I'm like, don't mess this one up.

170
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 5: Let's just go take care of business.

171
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're terrible, though, you gotta beat that team. You

172
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 6: lose to that team, I'm questioning everything, all the good

173
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 6: vibes we felt through the first two weeks, all of

174
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 6: the MVP talk.

175
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 4: I'm giving Daniel Jones.

176
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 6: If you go out there and lose on the road

177
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 6: to the lowly Tennessee Titans, and I mean lowly, this

178
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 6: team is not good. I will have questions about everything

179
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 6: regarding this team. So a chance on a silver platter

180
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 6: to go three and zero to win your first division game,

181
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 6: and more importantly, in the grand scheme of all of that,

182
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 6: keep pressure on the rest of the AFC South to

183
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 6: potentially win your first conference or not sorry, division title

184
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 6: in about want to see eleven years less than they

185
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 6: won it was twenty fourteen.

186
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 5: It's been a minute. It's been a minute. So we'll

187
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 5: talk about that all day today as well. We had

188
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 5: another big injury news in the NFL yesterday running it

189
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 5: was all quarterbacks coming out of the games on Sunday yesterday,

190
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 5: Aaron Jones gets put on the injury preserve for four

191
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 5: weeks from Minnesota Vikings, and all of a sudden, they're

192
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 5: not looking so good up there in Minnesota.

193
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess Carson Wentz and I have no idea

194
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: who their backup running back is. And again I can't

195
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: wait for this weekend. I think that game in Bloomington

196
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: we should put more attention on. I mean, first time

197
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 1: in over forty years you've had a top twenty matchup there,

198
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: and the college playoff implications to this game. You know, again,

199
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: when you have the non conference schedule that Indiana has,

200
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: that puts more pressure, of course on your Big Ten games,

201
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: and when you look at the Big Ten slate, the

202
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: road slate is brutal. You know at Oregon and at

203
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: Penn State. We'll see about Iowa. Just what a moment

204
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: Saturday night is going to be down there in Bloomton.

205
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: We have not had a marquee night football games in

206
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: that town. We've had a lot of historic nights in

207
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: that town, and certainly a lot of basketball moments, but

208
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: I don't know the last time you've had a football

209
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: type of atmosphere again at night that compares to that.

210
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: Last year of the Michigan game was a big game,

211
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: but it was much more for Indiana than it was

212
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: for Michigan. This one for both programs, Illinois in the

213
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 1: same boat. You know, if you're able to get this

214
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: one on the road, you know you're in a definite

215
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: position to be a playoff team. So I cannot wait

216
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: for Saturday night. And what is a big, big time

217
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: college football game in our state in the month of September,

218
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 1: which we don't say very often.

219
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 6: You know, I got a little beef for Mark Man.

220
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 6: Don't go snitch into the YouTube chat if I'm early. Finally,

221
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 6: if I'm the first one here. Let me have my moment.

222
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 6: Don't tell these people are here ninety seconds early.

223
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 3: Hey, ninety seconds was a minute earlier than two minutes

224
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 3: earlier than Jeff Right.

225
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 6: You're supposed to lean into it, you know, I'm thinking, Hey, man,

226
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 6: I finally get my time in the sun.

227
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: James, there are no you were on time? You were here,

228
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: you know, it was on time, just like just like

229
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: the Colts one on Sunday.

230
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 5: Yes, how on time were you?

231
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 4: He was? He was on time, on time before the start.

232
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 1: As soon as the show started, I was speaking there

233
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: you go.

234
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 7: That's all.

235
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 4: He actually opened the show.

236
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: No one said he you're talking about the Colts on

237
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 1: one and one.

238
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 5: They're not.

239
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: They're talking about the culture too and O, just like

240
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: you're talking about James and I on time?

241
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 6: All right for Saturday, though, I got some more more

242
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 6: trash talking person yesterday, people asking me about, you know, Saturday,

243
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 6: just letting you know. Now, I know Kevin sill is

244
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 6: a big game for both programs. That is, until Illinois

245
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 6: wins in the Indiana loses, and you're looking back at

246
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 6: it like you know what.

247
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: Dang, James. I know you're not the gambling type, but

248
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: if you would like to you can make some nice money.

249
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 4: I really could.

250
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: I could off your fighting line if if you, if

251
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: you put your mouth were the old cash.

252
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 6: Nah, you know all my cash for the A line

253
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 6: I go to my student loan payments.

254
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 4: So there you go.

255
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: We could pay some of those.

256
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 5: I think is what I'm getting at. I'm even a.

257
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: Half point underdog, never out of respect.

258
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 6: Every time people do this, they going to it and

259
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 6: I think, like the football guys look at you like, oh,

260
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 6: he's a newbie. I'm going to ruin this for him. Now,

261
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 6: you ain't about to mess me up Kevin with some

262
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 6: fluky punt or something.

263
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 4: Uh huh.

264
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 6: Stay away from that and Illinois will win out. I

265
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 6: would just take my pride as.

266
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 5: The victory and a lot to do today. Stephen hold

Speaker 5: Ross Tucker will give us a national perspective at nine o'clock.

00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:34,280

277
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 5: Fan Basketball in September. It's the lead story this morning

278
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 5: on the Checkdown as the Indiana Fever stay alive for

279
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 5: at least another game in the WNBA Playoffs. Last night,

280
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 5: playing at the Fieldhouse at home, facing a one nothing

281
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 5: deficit in a best of three series. Boy did they respond.

282
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 5: They come up with a seventy seven to sixty victory,

283
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 5: dominant James Boyd. They never trailed in the game.

284
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was a wire to wire.

285
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 6: Victory and really one of the more complete performances you'll

286
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 6: see from this team considering all the injuries they fought

287
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 6: through all year. And if there's one player I feel

288
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 6: happiest for, it is Kelsey Mitchell because she has been

289
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 6: through so much with this franchise at a big game

290
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 6: last night as well and helped them get their first

291
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 6: I believe playoff victory in ten years. So you go

292
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 6: to them do a die game three Thursday night in Atlanta.

293
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 5: And Kevin Bowen, he talked about Kelsey Mitchell nineteen points.

294
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,719
Speaker 5: Alia of Austin had fifteen, Natasha Howard twelve, all the

295
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 5: big guns showed up and they were Caitlin Clark and

296
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 5: Sophie Cunningham and then everybody else that's been out all

297
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 5: year long, cheering on from the sideline. Pretty good excited

298
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 5: crowd last night. All in all, it's everything the Indian

299
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 5: of Fever were envisioning when they put this team together

300
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 5: at the beginning of the year. They just didn't quite

301
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 5: get there the way they thought they would.

302
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Kelsey Mitchell speaks for herself frankly with

303
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 1: what she did and what she's done. But I thought

304
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: the bench was key last night. Kk Timpson, I know,

305
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: has had been asked to play a bigger role and

306
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: was great late in the year. Outstanding from her and

307
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: even some of the others, you know, bre Turner and

308
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: Shay Petty and Aerial Powers and some of those others

309
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: that weren't even in on the team or in the rotation.

310
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: Certainly at the start of the year.

311
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 6: Maybe did you catch the chest bump from Aerial Powers

312
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 6: Stephanie white Glass.

313
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: Indeed, I think I would have knocked me all the

314
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: way to South for it, so big time there from

315
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: that group as well. Kind of won one with her

316
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: death a little bit last night, which you know is

317
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: a little allah Pacers.

318
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 5: All right, and the game three, the Sighting Game, will

319
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 5: come your way from Atlanta Thursday night, seven thirty pm

320
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 5: at eartime seven to fifteen here on ninety three five

321
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 5: and one on seven five. The Fan Colts getting back

322
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 5: to work today as they get ready for a road

323
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 5: game against the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. One of the

324
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 5: things we need to keep an eye on this week,

325
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 5: James Boyd, I think a lot of it has to

326
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 5: do with one.

327
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 4: Can you make sure you contain cam Ward.

328
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 6: I understand he's been struggling as a number one pick

329
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 6: and really not necessarily it's all his fault or it

330
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 6: starts with him.

331
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 4: I think a lot of it starts with his protection.

332
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 6: He's getting hit a lot, So can you continue to

333
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 6: give him some different looks and make his life a

334
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 6: little miserable?

335
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 4: And then can you get a little bit healthier yourself.

336
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 6: I think today we go out to practice, we'll be

337
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 6: able to see is Shraveria's war practicing again after going

338
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 6: through concussion protocol? Is layout to lat too out there

339
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 6: as anybody else banged up after the win on Sunday,

340
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 6: and so I know Shane tit after the second game

341
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 6: of the season. Hey, we're doing pretty good health wise,

342
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 6: but you never know between now and then what could

343
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 6: pop up. Because again it was similar to the last week,

344
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 6: we didn't really know Javeria's Ward was injured until he

345
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 6: got on the you know, we got on the call

346
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 6: or got to talk to Shane Styking after the games.

347
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 6: The wait a second, he is, you know, feeling a

348
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 6: little woozy. So I'm excited about that. You know, hopefully

349
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 6: those guys can get back out there to practice. And then,

350
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 6: like I said earlier, already throughout this show, just win

351
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 6: the game. I don't care how you do it. But

352
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 6: that's a bad team. You can't lose to a bad team, all.

353
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 5: Right, So, Kevin, two games on tape now or all

354
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 5: of the NFL to see, specifically the Tennessee Titans. It's

355
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 5: been a terrific offense with Daniel Jones runing, a terrific

356
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 5: point guard. Tyler Warren's been everything is advertised. Jonathan Taylor

357
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 5: was magnificent against the Broncos. What are the Titans gonna

358
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 5: be looking at?

359
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Titan's gonna try to pressure Daniel Jones a

360
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: lot Denard Wilson, their defensive coordinator, mentioned yesterday we've got

361
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: to dial up more of that pressure, and he is

362
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: known as kind of a pressure guy to begin with.

363
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: So you know, that's nothing really too foreign after the

364
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: first two weeks here. But you know, one element to

365
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: the Colts offense that they've been particularly outstanding and been

366
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: so good on first down, like otherworldly frankly on first down,

367
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: so's not just staying ahead of the chains, creating a

368
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: lot of big plays. So it's been a big, big

369
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: element to their start here. And they are what three

370
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: and a half mark? Does that sound right for the

371
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: favorite on Sunday for the Colts?

372
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 7: Three or four?

373
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 5: That is correct? Three and a half.

374
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised not higher. I thought i'd be

375
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: closer to a touchdown.

376
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 3: Jump on it now before the line changes, just like

377
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 3: James Alinai getting an extra point now five and a half.

378
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, James Delioni the underdog coming up Saturday night in Bloomington.

379
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 5: That's what we're going to talk about next. It is

380
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 5: a huge matchup as far as rankings are concerned. The

381
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 5: Alini would be the fourth highest ranked team of the

382
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 5: Big Ten Conference in the latest polls in Indiana would

383
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 5: be the fifth highest ranked team. That tells me, Kevin

384
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 5: that neither team has much room for air as the

385
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 5: season goes along. They got to win this football game.

386
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: Huge, absolutely massive game when you look at it from

387
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: a playoff standings, and especially when you have, you know,

388
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: two teams that you know maybe aren't Ohio State or

389
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: Penn State or Oregon. You know how many Big ten

390
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: teams are going to get in. If you kind of

391
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: look at those three and say they're going to get in,

392
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: does that leave room for one more? And then is

393
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: it going to come down into these two? Illinois or Indiana.

394
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: So again, I think it's absolute shame that college game

395
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: Day's not there. I thought this sort of game two

396
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: programs were not used to being in the spotlight being there,

397
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: deserve college game Day, But they decided to go to Miami,

398
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: Florida for some reason.

399
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 5: James the over unders fifty two and a half. Maybe

400
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 5: you like that one to get some of your school

401
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 5: loans back.

402
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like I said, I'll stay away from that, but

403
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 6: I do expect it to be I mean college football,

404
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 6: I thought there's always like three or four blown coverages

405
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 6: a game that lead to some big moments and swinging

406
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 6: plays and so I'm excited for it. I'll be catching

407
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 6: the game like I told you, all out in Nashville

408
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 6: with Mate and IU alum shoutut to Matt Taylor, voice.

409
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 4: Of the Colts, and so big old IU for a

410
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 4: good time. Yeah, it should be a good.

411
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 9: Time, all right?

412
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 5: Checking high school football.

413
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 4: Them after a big touchdown, anybody's like, I'm up to

414
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 4: ducking and moving.

415
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 5: A couple of big games coming up, including top ranked

416
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 5: Brownsburg and six A taking on Fishers. Brownsburg is ranked

417
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 5: number one throughout the state and the Indie Star's latest

418
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 5: IHSAA top twenty five rankings for all classes. But I

419
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 5: also noticed looking around KB that Brownsburger is ranked seventeenth

420
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 5: nationally in one of those national prep polls. People like

421
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 5: what They're some defending state champions and could be on

422
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 5: the way to better season as well.

423
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: Is there any more ludicrous thing than ranking high school

424
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: national football program.

425
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 5: People who do it every year?

426
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: I want to know who in the world is doing

427
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: this and how is it real?

428
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 7: They do it?

429
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 4: That is true, but I never know what constitutes is

430
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 4: like a regular high school, you know what I mean?

431
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 4: Like Brownsburg is.

432
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 6: They're like a public they're like a public school, you know,

433
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 6: versus like again, I MGMG today like some of these

434
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 6: programs where it's like they're like football factories essentially.

435
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: So I don't know which nowadays there's probably some very

436
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: blurred lines on even the public schools and who they

437
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: true team.

438
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 4: Went back in my day when you went to the

439
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 4: school as you grew up in that area.

440
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: For we don't need a light up the phone lines

441
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: on the school field both ways, James, Yeah, you know me,

442
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: I was, you know, walking Miles.

443
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 5: Brownsburg number one this week, cetter Grove number two, New

444
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 5: pal three, Caramel four, and Crown Point rounds out the

445
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 5: top five in the Indies Star SAA rankings right now. Uh,

446
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 5: it's starting to get late. I'm still all in. There's

447
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 5: still but the Reds suffered a big loss last night.

448
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 5: They got shut up by the Saint Louis Cardinals three nothing.

449
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 5: At the same time, the Mets beat the Podres, So

450
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 5: the Mets now have a three game advantage over the

451
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 5: the Reds with just a week and a half of

452
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 5: play left in the regular season. Also, unlike buying for that,

453
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 5: the Giants and the Diamondbacks. D Backs beat the Giants

454
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 5: by a score of six to five. I'm holding out

455
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 5: hope though, Mark, I'm still I'm not dead yet in

456
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 5: the world. It's one of the great Monty Pythons.

457
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 4: The Giants.

458
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 3: You're a game and a half behind the Diamondbacks, and

459
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 3: you're behind the Mets, and I'm not dead yet.

460
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 5: No, you are basically just cut off another limb. I'm

461
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 5: still not dead. No mountain to climb. You need to

462
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 5: go see Holy the Monty Python on the Holy Grails.

463
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 4: What you need to do, James, Well, tell that to

464
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 4: the Reds, because they're dead.

465
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 5: They are just like that character, wouldn't you say? Yeah,

466
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 5: Indians did beat the Gwett Striper's on the road eight

467
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 5: one last night. They will play again to at a

468
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 5: twelve oh five matchup the Cubs. They're starting to look

469
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 5: pretty good and down the stretch, they remarked. I know

470
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 5: it was only the Pirates, but they won by a

471
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 5: score of four to one last night.

472
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 3: You watch any of that game, a little bit you

473
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 3: played that, You play the teams in front of you,

474
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 3: and now they have a better record than the Dodgers were,

475
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 3: leading the NL West of the best wild card team,

476
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: three games clear of the Dodgers, which we would have

477
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 3: thought that at the start of the season.

478
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 5: All right, anything else you boys want to throw another

479
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 5: There's some Indie car news yesterday, Kevin. Did you see

480
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 5: the last race has been moved around for next year.

481
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: I think we mentioned that at the end of the

482
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: yesterday's showgun Seka to close out the year for Indy Car.

483
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 1: So again, a busier start to the year. They've usually

484
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: had some gaps in the schedule around that Saint Pete Race.

485
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: Much much busier month of March, which I like. You know,

486
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: again you're trying to take advantage of times where maybe

487
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: appointment television is not as much there, and you know,

488
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: outside of March madness, there really probably isn't a whole

489
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: lot in March to compete with. So again on Fox,

490
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,639

Speaker 5: about the usha while you're talking about movies that we

516
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 5: lost the great Robert Redford yesterday, uh who starred in

517
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 5: directed so many great movies, including The Natural, which I

518
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 5: watched parts of again last night. Just such a great,

519
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 5: perfect film, James, you haven't seen The Natural? Go see

520

Speaker 5: The Natural?

521
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: Okay?

522
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 5: I got a baseball movie with Robert Redford. It was fantastic.

523
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 5: Do you have a favorite Redford movie?

524
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: Little Roy Hobbs Action. I would go with you on

525
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: that one. There Yeah, you're probably what, James Boyd, you

526
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: were born in what year ninety five? I was gonna

527
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: guess the Natural is what, probably fifteen years older than

528
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: jameson at least that, But yeah, that's probably where I

529
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: would go.

530
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 5: I'm so old that My favorite movie of Robert Redford

531
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 5: and Paul Newman, two of them, really, but Butch, Cassie

532
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 5: and Sundance Kid, very sentimental for me, was as my

533
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 5: father was deteriorating further and further. He was mostly asleep

534
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 5: for the last week week and a half, but he

535
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 5: and I did watch Butchcassie and Sundance Kid together one

536
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 5: last time. That was a lot of fun. And then

537
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 5: I remember one of the first movies he ever took

538
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 5: me to as a little kid back in the seventies

539
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 5: was The Sting with Robert Redford and Paul Newman, which

540
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 5: is also like one hundred out of one hundred Mark

541
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 5: if you've.

542
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 3: Ever seen, is a great one. All the President's Men

543
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 3: is a great one. Great Gatsby really good. So yeah,

544
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 3: he had a bunch of them.

545
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, And also Tuesday night means no Monday night football.

546
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 5: We all were watching The Fever last night. But in

547
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 5: the early evening before that, you guys have a chance

548
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,719
Speaker 5: to catch up on any of your TV shows last night.

549
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 5: With not a lot of just the Fever game going

550
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 5: on last.

551
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 4: Night, No, I actually ended up having a bunch of

552
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 4: work stuff to do.

553
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 7: You know.

554
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 6: There a lot of video stuff at the Athletic now,

555
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 6: so I was called in a movie star. Yeah, too many,

556
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 6: you know, things to do yesterday. But I got a

557
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 6: nap in before the Fever game and so that was

558
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 6: my night last night.

559
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 5: All right. We'll keep an eye on all those things

560
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 5: in the meantime. The Colts get ready for game number three,

561
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 5: and Kevin kind of teased it a moment ago. It'll

562
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 5: be interesting to see now with the Colts kind of

563
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 5: a new look offense and all these weapons and Daniel

564
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 5: Jones doing his thing, It'll start to get interesting as

565
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 5: we go on. How do defenses start to alter what

566
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 5: they do to try and stop with the have been

567
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 5: doing right now? That's what I can't wait to see next.

568
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and honestly I'm looking forward to nine o'clock today.

569
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: Ross Tucker going to join us here. He's on the Call,

570
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: CBS Call with Tom McCarthy and Manda balionis coming up

571
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: Sunday again, that's one o'clock down there in Nashville. But

572
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: if you guys remember we had Ross on back in

573
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 1: the off season and he was bullish on Daniel Jones.

574
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: Then he was very adamant that Daniel Jones would turn

575
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: out to be something here. So he is he was

576
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 1: on that first ship and not a lot of people

577
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 1: were climbing a bullard that, but Ross Tucker was singing

578
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: those praises. So looking forward to that because you know,

579
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: again he was definitely one that kind of stood by

580
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones back in the offseason. I one thing the

581
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: Jones too through the first two weeks that I think

582
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 1: should be extra encouraging is, you know, Daniel Jones has

583
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: had a year in his career where he's played good

584
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: football twenty twenty two. You know, the Colts continue to

585
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: go back to that year when when you know throwing

586
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 1: out you know his the back of the baseball card,

587
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: if you will, And if you look back on that season,

588
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: such a big part of Danon Jones's success that year

589
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 1: had to do with his legs. He ran for seven

590
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: hundred yards in that season that was pre acl and

591
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 1: he was very effective in the RPO game. With his

592
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: legs and kind of a yeah, it's probably too much

593
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 1: to call him a dual threat, but seven hundred yards

594
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: is a lot of yards. Well, this season, yes, he's

595
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: been the QB sneak king, but it's not like he's

596
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: doing a lot of this stuff with his legs, and that,

597
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 1: to me, I think is more encouraging because I think

598
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: the leg stuff, it can get a little fluky, it

599
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,360
Speaker 1: can get a little dangerous, and at some point those

600
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: legs get cut off. As a quarterback. The fact that

601
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: he is delivering for you largely with his right arm

602
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: and the passing game to me, stands out even more

603
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: than that twenty twenty two season.

604
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 4: I think after Daniel got cracked on that first run

605
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 4: in the first.

606
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: Game, Matthew Judon said, hey, man, you might want to freak.

607
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 7: Yeah.

608
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 6: I think Shan Steichen was like, you know what, I

609
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 6: Am not gonna dial up any more of those RPOs

610
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 6: where you actually keep the ball, So how about we,

611
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 6: you know, keep things nice and cleant, so no more

612
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 6: run pass options.

613
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 4: How about you just pass? And he's been dealing.

614
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 6: I gotta give him credit for that, man, I mean,

615
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 6: seventy one percent COMPETI of percentage I believe he's like

616
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 6: six in the league right now. Completetion of percentage second

617
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 6: in passing yards and obviously five total touchdowns and no turnovers.

618
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 6: That's not just good football, it's great football. It's not

619
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 6: game managing. That's winning games. So credit to him.

620
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I just love the way that they've won

621
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 5: two games in two different styles. Obviously just blowing the

622
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 5: Dolphins out of the water, and they just kept chipping

623
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 5: away and chipping away at the Broncos and even though

624
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 5: they got a little help at the very end, which

625
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 5: was a lot of surf, Yeah, but it was a penalty. Yeah,

626
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 5: So you know, shame on the Broncos for that. The

627
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 5: Colts took advantage of that. They found a way to

628
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 5: look a lot of times the NFL don't. The coaches

629
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 5: always said, just find a way to win and move on.

630
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, and again credit to Shane for owning that, because

631
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 6: that wasn't finding a way. You got gifted away. That

632
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 6: was some terrible late game coaching there. But you live

633
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 6: and learn from that. And usually, like I keep saying,

634
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 6: you learn after a loss. I mean usually in that scenario,

635
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 6: you're not winning that game because of how poorly you

636
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 6: you know, coach your own team down the stretch. So

637
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 6: I am curious though, Kevin, as the season goes on,

638
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 6: to see how he responds to more late game situations

639
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 6: where it is a bit diceier, because I have no

640
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 6: issues with how he's called games leading up to the moment,

641
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 6: it's just when you're in it, how do you respond,

642
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 6: because I don't think you can necessarily, you know, react

643
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 6: the way you did on Sunday, and even to a degree.

644
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 6: We talked to Brian Mason, the Cold special teams coordinator yesterday,

645
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 6: and he was saying, yeah, we have faith in Spencer

646
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 6: Trader as well to make that kick. And you know,

647
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 6: he's talking about how you rushed the process and he

648
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 6: can make it from sixty, seventy whatever. All his numbers

649
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 6: sound great until you actually have to make it. So

650
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 6: you know, we would love to I would love to

651
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 6: see a seventy yard kick. Just don't settle for anything

652
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 6: beyond fifty is probably the advice I would imagine they're

653
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 6: telling themselves going forward.

654
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think one thing to keep an eye

655
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: on two moving forward, because you know, theoretically, if you

656
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,159
Speaker 1: keep on doing this, you're gonna have bigger moments and

657
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna have more pressure games and you're going to have,

658
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 1: you know, probably a little bit more closer fourth quarter games.

659
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: You look at the back half of the schedule, I

660
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: think there are some definitely, you know, some Marquie opponents

661
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: on there. You know, what does Daniel Jones look like

662
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter of close games? Because if you

663
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: look at the last two drives, the Colts really asked

664
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones to do little with his right arm. He

665
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: obviously threw the ball to Pierce Yea, but even the

666
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: previous drive he wasn't really asked to do much. So

667
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: you know, Daniel Jones has been a while since he's

668
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: been in those moments. So you know, this is all

669
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: about kind of grading quarterbacks, and when you tear out

670
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: these qbs, you know, oftentimes they get graded harder in

671
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, on third down, in the red zone,

672
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: and again right now, some of those areas, red zone

673
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: probably being the biggest one, is definitely an area where

674
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 1: this Colts offense needs to get better.

675
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 5: Let's talk about the defense just a little bit and KB,

676
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 5: it's obviously been an improved defense. They held Miami to

677
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 5: eight points. Denver was moving the ball for a while

678
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 5: but in the fourth quarter when the Colts really needed it,

679
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 5: players were made. They've had a couple of turnovers and

680
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 5: a couple of games now kim bying them has been terrific.

681
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 5: I know that they haven't had a great pass rush,

682
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 5: but where would you how would you grade the first

683
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 5: two weeks of the defense so far?

684
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 7: Yeah?

685
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: Maybe slightly above average. You know, I thought what they

686
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: did against Miami was notable, but I thought last week

687
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 1: is definitely a step back. Now, granted you were missing,

688
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 1: you know, two year key personnel guys, but the run

689
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: defense I think is a definite question mark right now.

690
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: I don't love what I've seen from the pass rush,

691
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 1: just especially the edge guys. And again, I know a

692
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: lot too didn't play in Week two, and I'd like

693
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: to see a little bit more linebacker impact. I feel

694
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: like I haven't noticed those guys at all, And so

695
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: I think lou Anroumo in that unit, it's a great

696
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: get right game for them, And you know, he kind

697
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: of mentioned it yesterday. When you play the rookie quarterbacks,

698
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: there are some things that you do show that he

699
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: hasn't seen before. So I would expect that to happen.

700
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,200
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people will probably start

701
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: the Colts in fantasy this week from a defensive standpoint,

702
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: and I get that, but I think that unit definitely

703
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: facing some more questions right now.

704
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 5: Fan Morning Show along with Kevin Bowen, James Boyd, jeff Rickord,

705
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 5: Mark Dyton and Colts getting ready to go on the

706
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 5: road to play the Tennessee Titans. In Tennessee has really

707
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 5: not had much of an offense at all, and they

708
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 5: really struggled against the Broncos. The Broncos turned the ball

709
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 5: over I think five times, and Tennessee started five different

710
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 5: possessions in Denver territory, almost scoring position to start all

711
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 5: those possessions, and only came away with four field goals.

712
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 5: And we all thought, well, a lot of that is,

713
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 5: you know, rookie quarterback against a great Broncos defense. But Bason,

714
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 5: what you saw last week, how good is the Broncos

715
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 5: defense right now? They went right at pat certain all

716
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 5: day long.

717
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 4: It's early, but.

718
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 6: I mean, in fairness, I guess to me, I haven't

719
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 6: paid much attention to what Differ's guy going on besides

720
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 6: the game that they were in with the Colts, and

721
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 6: you know, they have a lot of playmakers on the

722
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 6: side of the ball, and so you have to give

723
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 6: credit to how the coach responded to that. I thought

724
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 6: that when Daniel Jones had clean pocket, he took advantage

725
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 6: of it. When he had pressure, he still took advantage

726
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 6: of it. Now, the key there is that he just

727
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 6: wasn't under constant pressure, because I don't think any quarterback

728
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 6: is going to operate that well if you're constantly having

729
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 6: to maneuver or run for your life or you know,

730
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 6: get hit. And so there's been a pretty good balance

731
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 6: there so far, and the hope is that you can

732
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 6: continue that against Tennessee Titans team that yeah, they're they're

733
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 6: beat up, and yeah, I think they kind of I

734
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 6: just think they're not a good team. However, it's a

735
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 6: big division game, first division game of the year, and

736
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 6: the last couple of years you've had some of these

737
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 6: division games come so early in the season that now

738
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 6: you know you're looking at a two and oh start,

739
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 6: and you have a chance to kind of get right

740
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 6: before you go into your division game, to even get righter,

741
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 6: if that's a word, where you have a chance to

742
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 6: really put pressure on the rest of the division, because again,

743
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 6: a three and oh start in this division with the

744
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 6: way the Houston Texas look, questions in Jacksonville with they're

745
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 6: utilizing Travis Hunter, and obviously the struggle in Tennessee to

746
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 6: put you in a driver's seat very early in the

747
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 6: season to win your first division title in eleven years.

748
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: I have a question for you, guys, does comeback player

749
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: of the year is the criteria for that? You were

750
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: hurt the year before or you sucked the year before.

751
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 5: I would think you'd missed significant time the year before.

752
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 4: I don't know, because it's.

753
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 5: One of those like what is the most valuable player?

754
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 5: What does that mean?

755
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: You come free or do you come back from being bad?

756
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.

757
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: I think it should be injury.

758
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 5: I feel that way. I think you have to have

759
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 5: missed a significant amount of time. You look at the list,

760
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 5: they're really coming back from something that was out of

761
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 5: your control.

762
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 1: Like right now, you look at the odds and you've

763
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: got Dak Prescott and Christian McCaffrey high up there. You know,

764
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: both those guys obviously hurt.

765
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 5: Christ would be a comeback player here every.

766
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: Year seemingly it does seem like he's hurt a lot.

767
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: And then you have Daniel Jones on there, so It's

768
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: like two guys that would accept the ward and they'd

769
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, you know, a lot of rehab and

770
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: a lot of blah blah blah. Daniel Jones would be like, yeah,

771
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 1: I played better than I did last year.

772
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I see that. Joe Flacco won it in twenty

773
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 4: twenty three. So is the criteria? Can you open up

774
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 4: a bit more? Kevin?

775
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 6: Like, if you're out of the league and you come

776
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 6: back and play, does that help? Don't You also won

777
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 6: it after like playing what the last like month and

778
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 6: that like maybe five or six games the season.

779
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: Injury like to me coming you know, especially in a

780
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: league with all this physicality and guys get hurt a lot.

781
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, when I think of like, well diversity

782
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: and you're coming back from something, to me, it should

783
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: be an injury more than like.

784
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 5: You sucked last year.

785
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah.

786
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 4: The fact that Joe Flecco won that award over DeMar

787
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 4: Hamlin was nuts.

788
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: Who won it last year?

789
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow, right, and he came back.

790
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 5: He had missed a significant amount of time the year

791
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 5: before that.

792
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 1: Definitely.

793
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, Joe Burrow was a two time Comeback Player of

794
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 6: the Year, and he could be the comeback player Player

795
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 6: of the.

796
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 4: Honestly, which is not something one of your resumes.

797
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: No, no, it is not.

798
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 4: I'm seeing Peyton Manny was on here in twenty.

799
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: Twelve, which makes sense.

800
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 4: You know he and Andrew Luck in twenty eighteen.

801
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, the neck injury, Andrew Luck coming back from injury. Yeah,

802
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: to me, it should be more injury related.

803
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 5: Then it feels like it's gotta be from something control.

804
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: Right, then got good again at all?

805
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 5: You got to come back from something out of your control.

806
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: Did Jonathan Taylor win AFC Offensive Player of the Week today, James,

807
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: he should?

808
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,919
Speaker 6: I mean he was outstanding. I believe what two hundred

809
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 6: and fifteen yards offense, twenty seven touches.

810
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: For two fifteen Yeah, I have a touchdown and a touchdown.

811
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure there were some guys in the AFC I'm

812
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 1: forgetting about last week, but that to me is a

813
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: pretty deserving resume, right, Yeah, he.

814
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 6: Was a big time And then on top of that,

815
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 6: we're talking about what Danan Jones has done. By the way,

816
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 6: JT leads the league in rushing. So the offense, if

817
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 6: you're looking at everything you would ideally want out of

818
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 6: this team, so far, you're getting it great quarterback play.

819
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 6: Your star running back looks like a star again and

820
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 6: as he did to end last year. Your offensive line

821
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 6: look steady. And then Tyler Warren I was having his

822
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 6: debate and we can, you know, get into this throughout

823
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:07,240
Speaker 6: the show, and I'm sure we'll get into it throughout

824
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 6: the season.

825
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 4: But is he their number one?

826
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 6: Because the way they're utilizing him, oh, easily, yeah, and

827
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 6: what he means to this offense, I'm like, he's their

828
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 6: number one option.

829
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: He's their number one past year, Yes, which I mean

830
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 1: crazy to say so.

831
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 4: Again two games into his career.

832
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:23,760
Speaker 1: You know, I mentioned in week one I thought Miami

833
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: already is starting to give him big league sort of attention.

834
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: And then a week two, Patrick Surtan in critical moments,

835
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 1: and there are a couple of times where Certan, I think, instinctly,

836
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: I'd love to know this. I think watching it back,

837
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: I would guess instinctually he did this. He peeled off

838
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 1: his responsibility thinking the ball was going to Warren, and

839
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: he was right a couple of those times. I don't

840
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: know many tight ends that do this. And again, if

841
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: Warren has it's kind of a wild stat to me.

842
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: If Warren eclipses seventy yards on Sunday. He will be

843
00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 1: the first tight end in franchise history to have three

844
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,320
Speaker 1: straight seventy years games and again.

845
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 5: Not just to start a season at any point in ever, right.

846
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: Ever, And these are the first three games of his career.

847
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: And think about the Colts tight ends John Mackie, Dallas Clark,

848
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean, Eric Ebron had a great season that one year,

849
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: Jack Doyle, Ken Delgar, Marcus Pollard. I mean, the list

850
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 1: goes on and on. Some of these times. I mean, hell,

851
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: Kobe Fleener had a really nice, you know, first season

852
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: in the league. And for Tyler Warren to have done

853
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: it in his first three NFL games put them in

854
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: the ring of honor right now. Well, here's the beautiful

855
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: part about a tight end. When you.

856
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 5: Tight ends are used all the time to either force

857
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 5: a defense to reveal themselves what they want to do.

858
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,399
Speaker 5: But when you have a guy now like Tyler Warren.

859
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 5: This is why I'm sure Shane Steichen just goes to

860
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 5: sleep happy every night. I can put him in the slot,

861
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 5: I can put him out wide, I can set him

862
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 5: up as a fullback, I can use him as an

863
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,280
Speaker 5: h back. I can do him in that little hybrid

864
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 5: that's kind of between a slot receiver and an h back.

865
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 5: I can put him in motion and they're gonna have

866
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 5: to respect that. They're gonna have to account for him

867
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 5: now every single time he lines up in a brand

868
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 5: new spot, and that just opens up your playbook, James.

869
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean he's a special talent, and I think

870
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 6: all the things that we're seeing are just perhaps just

871
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 6: surface level stuff that they've installed. I mean, yes, it's

872
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 6: a bit more complex than probably the average rookie, but

873
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 6: even then, i'd imagine Shane probably still has a lot

874
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 6: of things up his sleeve. Here's my not even a

875
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 6: hot take, but just something I would like to see,

876
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 6: and I feel like there's a non zero chance, say

877
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 6: what happened, Kevin. I could totally see them getting to

878
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 6: the goal line and Tyler Warren doing the jump pass.

879
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 4: Oh, Tim Tebow, Tyler Warren will throw a pass.

880
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, and fair warning it's a lefty pass.

881
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

882
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 6: I can totally see them like where, you know, second

883
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 6: in goal from the two, We're gonna have your line

884
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 6: up in the backfield, We're gonna give you the ball

885
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 6: and then somebody's gonna slip out the backside and we're

886
00:37:58,800 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 6: gonna just throw it over the top.

887
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 1: I think at some point they'll do like a little

888
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: swing screen to him, you know, just kind of throw

889
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: it out of the backfield and then and then that

890
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: sets up the you throw the swing screen to him,

891
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: and then one of the blockers, you know, fakes like

892
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 1: he's blocking. Boom, he goes out and that's gonna be it.

893
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 7: Yeah.

894
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: I mean they they ran it with him obviously last

895
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 1: week out of a kind of a running back sort

896
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: of position there on the fourth and one. So yeah,

897
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: I think Shane stike and you said at night, Jeff,

898
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 1: what he's thinking about. I think Shane Stikin's ever had

899
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:26,879
Speaker 1: a non football dream in his life.

900
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 5: No, that's what I was talking about. There are certain

901
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 5: guys that he almost what they're doing. He's out on

902
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 5: a date when he was single and probably with a

903
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 5: woman that's gonna end up being his wife, and half

904
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 5: the time he's thinking about a play that he saw

905
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 5: somebody else. Well, I mean he's still you know, I

906
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 5: might argue all the time, he's got to pay a

907
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 5: little bit of attention. Got to close that deal too.

908
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 5: At some point, you know what I'm saying, Stephen Holder

909
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 5: is going to talk more about the Colts coming up

910
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 5: in just a minute. I do want to get back

911
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 5: real quick. If you're just waking up. Fever survive. They

912
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 5: win game two of their best of three series with

913
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 5: the Atlanta Dream last night in minute fashion, seventy seven

914
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 5: to sixty, and everything was working, especially in the second

915
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 5: half last night. They led wire to wire, and if

916
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 5: they play again the same way on Thursday, they'll advance.

917
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 1: I mean they were just talking about.

918
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, but the dominant. I don't know what Atlanta can

919
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 5: do if the Fever show up with that same energy.

920
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 6: I mean they're going back home, so that that'll be

921
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 6: an advantage for Hittlanta for sure. And the three point variants,

922
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 6: as I referenced earlier, you know, when you have the

923
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,919
Speaker 6: Fever making just more outside shots to start the game,

924
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,760
Speaker 6: I think they open up a lot more for them inside.

925
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 6: And then I thought that the Dream just got in

926
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 6: their own way and really kind of wilted under the

927
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 6: moment they started arguing with the referees.

928
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 4: At one point, you're talking to the crowd, all these

929
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 4: different things are going on. It's like, just play the game.

930
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 6: And I thought that the Fever did a really good

931
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 6: job of establishing some physicality, which I think will be

932
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 6: key going into game three as well. And can you

933
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 6: make enough outside shots to give yourself a chance, because that,

934
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 6: to me is probably the biggest key beyond everything else.

935
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 6: Like I trust them on the interior. I trusted Leah Boston,

936
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 6: you know, but even she not got a couple of

937
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 6: threes yesterday. And will that be the case again come

938
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 6: Thursday night.

939
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: I have this hot take that like, if the Fever

940
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 3: scored more points, they get them the dream on Thursday.

941
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 5: I think they're gonna But my point was they played

942
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 5: so differently last night in terms of energy and the

943
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 5: way they ad marked the way. Yeah, I know it.

944
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:25,799
Speaker 9: Man.

945
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: Did you hear his analysis? Mark opens a little.

946
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 3: Ears are open?

947
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 5: They did. They defended last morning, They defended the basket,

948
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 5: they attacked, and they were they were the by far

949
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 5: the aggressive team last night.

950
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 1: And so just tell them the shut up next time.

951
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 4: He kill his mic from before You're Sitting.

952
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 5: No, this is what Mark adds to the show. Every

953
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:52,879
Speaker 5: show needs a good troll. Mark Yes, perfectly performs that role.

954
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 5: I wear the game the better for the Fever. Like

955
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 5: I thought last night, it was pretty ugly those first

956
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 5: couple of quarters.

957
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,040
Speaker 1: Oh brother, yes, and so I think that favors the field,

958
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: like this is one of those clincher you know what

959
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean. This is a Atlanta's got the way to

960
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: the world on them with Fever, I mean, and.

961
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 4: They haven't really been there like this version exactly.

962
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: They had a lot of playoff game and I know Brittany.

963
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 6: Grinder is like, you know, the most established player over there,

964
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 6: but even she's coming off the bench now, it's not

965
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 6: playing a lot.

966
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 4: They're lead dogs. They have not been in this situation before,

967
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:23,319
Speaker 4: so I.

968
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 1: Think, and again the Fever's reaction to last night rightfully,

969
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 1: So it's kind of like that's a cherry on top

970
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 1: of the season. Like if the Fever lose tomorrow, probably

971
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: universally people are going to be like, that was still

972
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: a successful year given all the injuries. You finally won

973
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: your first playoff game in X amount of years, all

974
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 1: that stuff. Whereas Atlanta you got the best record in

975
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference and you bow out in round one

976
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,959
Speaker 1: to a Fever team with more women in street clothes

977
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: than playing. Yeah, that's not going to be considered a

978
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: successful You get it ugly. You put game pressure on

979
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: them late.

980
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 5: I think it definitely could happen, and Mark the point

981
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 5: was to finish the thought the game they played last

982
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 5: night will travel well to it.

983
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 4: Just busting your balls on this Wednesday morning.

984
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: We'll be late to Stephen Holder, because we're still going

00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:04,680

995
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,400

996
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,919
Speaker 5: the Colts off to a two and oh start, played

997
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 5: their first Divisional rival of the season on Sunday in

998
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 5: Nashville and joining us now in the Payless Liquors Hotline

999
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 5: to give us all the skinny o at ears of

1000
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 5: my man, Stephen Holder, How you doing this morning, sir?

1001
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 9: Going well?

1002
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 7: How are you guys?

1003
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 5: We're just living the dream right here talking football and

1004
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 5: hanging out with you and getting ready for the Colts.

1005
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 5: And I'll ask you the same thing. I was perusing

1006
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 5: all the National Riders yesterday and look at ESPN, dot

1007
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 5: Com and CBS and Pro Football Talk and everything else,

1008
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 5: and everybody had one question, are the Colts for real

1009
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 5: right now? Can we believe in what we're seeing to

1010
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 5: and oh, that offense functioning at a high level? What

1011
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 5: do you say?

1012
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 9: So I tend to have a rule, or I tell

1013
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 9: fans because they always want to know, like, hey, what

1014
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 9: about this?

1015
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 7: What about that?

1016
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 9: After two weeks and I always say, look, give it

1017
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 9: a month, however, So that's typically my rule. However, some

1018
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 9: of this does look sustainable, and I think it's because,

1019
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 9: you know, they're not reliant on one guy. Even though

1020
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 9: Daniel Jones is certainly at the center of all this.

1021
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 9: I think what he's doing, he's not playing sort of

1022
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 9: a hero ball style here. He's getting the ball to

1023
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 9: different guys. They've had eight different guys catch balls already

1024
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,439
Speaker 9: through two games. They have Jonathan Taylor doing Johnson Taylor things.

1025
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 9: They're they're hurting the defense at every level, you know,

1026
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 9: in the first, second, and third level right now, and

1027
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 9: it looks like it's sustainable.

1028
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 7: It looks like it.

1029
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 9: And really, frankly, the test against Denver I think said

1030
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 9: a lot because that was a very good defense the

1031
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 9: Miami game, do I discount yeah a little now, but

1032
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 9: this was a different test, and they passed it so

1033
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 9: easily and so thoroughly, at least offensively, that I think

1034
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 9: you got to pay attention.

1035
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 6: Yeah you know what, Stephen Holder, you sunk a hater

1036
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 6: right now. Okay, we're two weeks in, all right, drink

1037
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 6: the kool aid, my man. You know, these are vibes

1038
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 6: we have not felt in sixteen years, being two and

1039
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 6: zero for the first time in two thousand and nine.

1040
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 6: But on more serious note, there are some not like

1041
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 6: big red flags for me, but there are a couple

1042
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 6: of things that I'm worried about. And we were talking

1043
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 6: about it in the first hour of the show. What

1044
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 6: do you think of this linebacker group so far, and

1045
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 6: particularly what it means for the run defense, because that's

1046
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 6: one area of this defense really of the team that

1047
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 6: kind of stands out to me as a bit of

1048
00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 6: a sore thumb.

1049
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 9: I think it it's not good, and the Colts know

1050
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 9: it's not good, which is why they've made moves there

1051
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 9: in recent weeks, you know, waiverclaim bringing in Anthony Walker

1052
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 9: to be on the practice squad of some depth. I mean,

1053
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 9: I think they've acknowledged that that's a problem. It hasn't

1054
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 9: really hurt them yet, but but I do think it has.

1055
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 9: It hasn't been great though, it hasn't been great. And

1056
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 9: and I think when you when when you have a

1057
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 9: defensive performance like you did in week one, it doesn't

1058
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,759
Speaker 9: show up as much, right because you're getting the pass

1059
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 9: rush and everybody's eaten. It was a little bit more

1060
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 9: of a struggle this past week, and and there are

1061
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 9: gonna be games I think over the course of time

1062
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 9: where teams, you know, probably exploit that.

1063
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 7: That's the thing.

1064
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 9: I mean, good coaches and and given time, they're going

1065
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 9: to find ways to exploit your weaknesses. And that is

1066
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 9: a weakness. So the right coach with the right situation

1067
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,839
Speaker 9: is going to be able to exploit that. And it's

1068
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 9: up to the colts to figure out a way to

1069
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,320
Speaker 9: prevent them from doing that. To they they have to

1070
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 9: understand their own blind spot there and do something about it.

1071
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 6: And then sticking with your hater ways because obviously, you

1072
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 6: know you were the only one on the beat who

1073
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 6: doubted Daniel Jones. But I thought you actually got some

1074
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 6: real emotion from him after that game, Stephen. And you

1075
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 6: know when you phrased the question of like, hey, let's

1076
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:18,919
Speaker 6: be honest, there were doubts about you, I was thinking

1077
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:20,439
Speaker 6: I was raising my hand in the back like, yeah,

1078
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 6: I doubted you.

1079
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 4: What'd you think of his response to that?

1080
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:28,280
Speaker 6: And perhaps seriously, Stephen, you know some of him peeling

1081
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 6: back that curtain a bit and letting us know, Okay,

1082
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 6: I am human and it does feel good to kind

1083
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,759
Speaker 6: of get at least early on that last laugh.

1084
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 9: I appreciated it because he hasn't given us anything when

1085
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 9: it comes to, you know, acknowledging that, hey, buddy, you

1086
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 9: know you had a rough time in New York and

1087
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 9: people don't believe in you.

1088
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 7: It'd be like.

1089
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:56,760
Speaker 9: Acknowledging that is not necessarily being a hater, as James

1090
00:46:56,760 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 9: would call it. But I mean, look, I think I'm

1091
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,879
Speaker 9: reading the quote here he says, you know, he says,

1092
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 9: you know what people are saying, and you know what

1093
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 9: the narrative is, so you know, there's a little bit

1094
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 9: of that he's talking about, like is their satisfaction? Yeah,

1095
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,400
Speaker 9: there's a little bit of that, but he also finished

1096
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 9: it by saying, look, it's two games, and you know,

1097
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 9: I've learned to take it one week at a time, etc. However,

1098
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 9: I do think for Daniel Jones that was a very

1099
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 9: big admission because he at least acknowledged it, which he

1100
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,320
Speaker 9: had not done with us. I think he might have

1101
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,440
Speaker 9: kind of sort of sort of done it with McAfee

1102
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,800
Speaker 9: on the show last week, but even that it was

1103
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 9: a milder version I thought. So, Yeah, I think you

1104
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 9: have to feel good for Daniel Jones. Listen, no matter

1105
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 9: what you felt about his acquisition, no matter who you

1106
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 9: wanted to win the quarterback battle, any of those things, right,

1107
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 9: Daniel Jones has never, to my knowledge in his seven seasons,

1108
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 9: has never been a jerk, has never been given anybody

1109
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 9: a reason to root against him. He's never done anything

1110
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 9: to create any kind of opposition to him the person,

1111
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 9: and so you have to feel good for him given

1112
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 9: all of that.

1113
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: Steven Holder ESPN with the year on the Paylastickers hot Line,

1114
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 1: first road trip of the year for the Colts, coming

1115
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 1: up three and a half point favorite over the Titans

1116
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: in week three, Steven, do you think the Colts felt

1117
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,879
Speaker 1: the loss of Laotu Latsu or Mooney Ward more last week.

1118
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 9: Hmm, that's a good one, and I actually think those

1119
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,440
Speaker 9: were the two worst positions for them to be missing.

1120
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:33,280
Speaker 9: But I wonder if it was if it was Lattu

1121
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 9: just because the rest of that group just didn't create

1122
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 9: any pass rush. Don't get me wrong, they miss Mooney

1123
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:44,800
Speaker 9: Ward and the Howard performance I think speaks to that,

1124
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:50,240
Speaker 9: but there was really no pressure on bow Knicks throughout

1125
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,760
Speaker 9: that game. They'll consistent pressure and I was disappointed in that, frankly,

1126
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,839
Speaker 9: because that tells you the performance of Week one maybe

1127
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 9: was a little bit of a mirage, or at least

1128
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,399
Speaker 9: possibly was a mirage in terms of the pass rush.

1129
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 9: But a lot of two can get there organically. He

1130
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 9: can win matchups, and I think he's the guy who

1131
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 9: has to win this year, and he gives them someone

1132
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 9: else to focus on as opposed to just the Forest

1133
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,800
Speaker 9: Bucker and the rest, you know, being single blocked. I

1134
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 9: think that's the reality there, you know, with the loss

1135
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 9: of Mooney, I think if you're going up against a

1136
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 9: higher powered offense, and look, the Broncos scored a lot

1137
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 9: of points in that game, so they did fine, But

1138
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,280
Speaker 9: I think if you're going up against a higher powered offense,

1139
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,279
Speaker 9: that could have been even a more troublesome for them.

1140
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,359
Speaker 9: So all I can say is, I think the word

1141
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 9: is that this progress in both those guys, and hopefully

1142
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 9: they get them back because they really can ill afford

1143
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:47,279
Speaker 9: to lose either one of them.

1144
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:49,720
Speaker 5: Stephen Holder joning us here on the pay list loikers

1145
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,359
Speaker 5: hot line and Steven while we're talking about defense, what's

1146
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 5: the energy additionentire and not even that, but even what

1147
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 5: he provides on the field from Cam Binden so far

1148
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 5: these first two games, I mean, he cannot be dismissed.

1149
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 5: How much is he meaning to this defense right now?

1150
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 9: I mean, I think Cam is just a hit. His presence,

1151
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 9: it's just infectious. He is the kind of guy the

1152
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 9: teammates feed off of. I think that's exactly what you want.

1153
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 9: You want a guy who not only makes plays but

1154
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 9: also just kind of instills some energy in the in

1155
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:27,520
Speaker 9: the entire unit. And you know, he's He's a unique guy.

1156
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 9: There's no question about it. He's just a unique guy.

1157
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 9: He is perpetually happy, but he also is very serious

1158
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 9: about his craft too. So it's not just I want

1159
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 9: to make interceptions and go dance. I mean, this guy studies,

1160
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 9: he works. I mean we heard that from mu Anaumo yesterday,

1161
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 9: and I think you're seeing the results of that. You

1162
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 9: know that there's not an accident that he's in the

1163
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 9: right place at the right time. You make your own luck.

1164
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 9: You make your own lucky by understanding what the what

1165
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 9: the opponent is doing and putting yourself in position to succeed.

1166
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 6: Steven, I want to pivot just a little bit because

1167
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 6: I know we were actually joking about this when the

1168
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 6: Pacers are going through some of their playoffs stuff. You

1169
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 6: had to do a couple of pinch hitting assignments. You

1170
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,840
Speaker 6: saw the Fever gonna win last night. Your thoughts on

1171
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 6: just the resiliency of that team without Caitlyn Clark, who

1172
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,719
Speaker 6: we all thought if they were in this position at

1173
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 6: the start of the year it would be it would

1174
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:22,880
Speaker 6: be because of her.

1175
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean you talk about some about a great story, Okay,

1176
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 9: and maybe it's not a story that the whole country's

1177
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,759
Speaker 9: paying attention to because of the absence of Caitlyn, right,

1178
00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,399
Speaker 9: But I mean who thought that they would even make

1179
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,719
Speaker 9: the playoffs some boling and now be on the verge

1180
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 9: of advancing it.

1181
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:45,239
Speaker 5: Just is crazy to me.

1182
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:48,880
Speaker 9: It's really is crazy, and I think it speaks to

1183
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,440
Speaker 9: I think the the not necessarily the talent, but I

1184
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 9: think the makeup of that team. There's talent too, for sure, man,

1185
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 9: Kelsey Mitchell, Leah Boston. There's talent. I mean, like no

1186
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,840
Speaker 9: one that they wouldn't be here without it. But but

1187
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 9: that wouldn't be enough in itself, you know. And that's

1188
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 9: what I like about it, is the fact that they

1189
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 9: have They've they dug down and found something within themselves

1190
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 9: and there's a lesson there, man, you know. I mean

1191
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 9: you look around the NFL. Not to be all dramatic,

1192
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 9: but I mean you look around the NFL look at

1193
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,759
Speaker 9: all these you know, key players going down, quarterbacks going down,

1194
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,799
Speaker 9: and you know, how how do you find a way

1195
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 9: to overcome that? I mean, there's a lesson there. And

1196
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 9: what the Fever have done for any team in any

1197
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,120
Speaker 9: sport that is going up against a really difficult situation.

1198
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:34,880
Speaker 6: I will say this, I feel like we're living in

1199
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:37,839
Speaker 6: the twilight zone because the Fever are game away from

1200
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 6: advancing in the playoffs without Caitlin Clark the coach, to

1201
00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 6: ando with Daniel Jones, and I'm thinking to myself, how

1202
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:47,399
Speaker 6: did we get here? And honestly, I can't really argue

1203
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,879
Speaker 6: anything else. Steven is just it's it's unique, to say

1204
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 6: the least, and it is especially mom before the city,

1205
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 6: I think as well, just seeing some of the guys.

1206
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 6: I saw Kenny Moore, Zia Franklin, they were at the

1207
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 6: game last night, you know Tyre's Callibron was on the

1208
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,320
Speaker 6: mic last night doing his Pat McAfee impression. So the

1209
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 6: vibes are good and I'll throw it over to Kevin,

1210
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 6: but I just want to get that in the real quick.

1211
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:07,399
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1212
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:11,279
Speaker 1: Honestly, you go down the list from a local standpoint, Yeah,

1213
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:13,959
Speaker 1: are you football not a name? Give the national title?

1214
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 1: I mean there's been a lot year, but like good weird? Yeah, yeah,

1215
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 1: certainly with that Stephen last one for me, and I

1216
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: part of me thinks I'm an idiot for even like

1217
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: throwing the question out there. But I'm just curious, big, big,

1218
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,280
Speaker 1: big picture thoughts here with Daniel Jones and the Colts.

1219
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 1: I assume this would take Carly or say Gordon's sign off,

1220
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 1: but do you think there's any point that Daniel Jones

1221
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: could string together a level of play this season to

1222
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,760
Speaker 1: where the Colts would hand him a contract extension in season,

1223
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:46,919
Speaker 1: So good question.

1224
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 7: I actually think that.

1225
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 9: Just from a contract perspective, I don't know if they can,

1226
00:53:56,280 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 9: because that would I think you'd have to actually wait

1227
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 9: until after the league year to do it. That's my

1228
00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:08,960
Speaker 9: understanding of how that would work. But you follow what

1229
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:12,439
Speaker 9: I mean, like, I think he signed a contract within

1230
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,800
Speaker 9: the twenty twenty five league year back in March, and

1231
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,879
Speaker 9: I don't believe you can sign two within the same

1232
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 9: league year. Is my understanding of how that works.

1233
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 7: Got it? Got it?

1234
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:27,400
Speaker 9: However, However, that being said, that being said, I mean

1235
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 9: I've had conversations with people in that building before the

1236
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,759
Speaker 9: season and and when I would ask about like, okay,

1237
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,759
Speaker 9: like what's the plan after twenty twenty five because my

1238
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 9: assumption was all right, well you ain't resigning this guy, okay,

1239
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 9: And on a couple of occasions I was told, well, hey,

1240
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,759
Speaker 9: I mean if he if he hits it and if

1241
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 9: he and if he lights it up, why can't we

1242
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 9: just resign him? And I was like, all right, good

1243
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,799
Speaker 9: luck with that. So I feel pretty stupid right now.

1244
00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 9: So anyway, I think my point is they were actually

1245
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 9: open to the idea. It was just an idea. Okay,

1246
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,400
Speaker 9: no one was like politicking for it, but it was

1247
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:11,160
Speaker 9: the idea even before he started doing this, So you

1248
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 9: have to know those wheels are already turning if this

1249
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,239
Speaker 9: is actually real at this point.

1250
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 5: Steven, always great to catch up with. You have yourself

1251
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,239
Speaker 5: a day, buddy. We'll see us soon, all right, see

1252
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,120
Speaker 5: you guys. He's the best, Stephen Holder joining us on

1253
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:28,080
Speaker 5: the Paylesslickers hotline from ESPN dot com. And he's done

1254
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 5: a great job. And like the rest of us, want

1255
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 5: to see how this whole thing plays out, because I

1256
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 5: don't think any of us we were hopeful, Kevin, but

1257
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 5: did any of us see two and zero and you know,

1258
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 5: climbing up the charts as far as everybody else nationally

1259
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 5: looking in and the offense being as efficient as it was.

1260
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,320
Speaker 5: And look, I'll raise my hand. I was an Anthony

1261
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 5: Richardson guy. I thought maybe more time to develop, but

1262
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 5: so far it appears that they know what they were

1263
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:52,359
Speaker 5: doing with them.

1264
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's two different conversations right there. Like

1265
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: I think in my you know, game by game season prediction,

1266
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 1: I think four and two, So like two and oh,

1267
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 1: maybe might not be the most shocking thing in the world.

1268
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 1: But how they're two and oh is shocking to me,

1269
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,040
Speaker 1: Like Daniel Jones's right arm is because right, they're two

1270
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: and oh.

1271
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 4: That's a very good point.

1272
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 1: That's the shocking element to me. Like they had two

1273
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,759
Speaker 1: home games going too, and oh with two home games

1274
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:17,800
Speaker 1: in the NFL is not like, you know, start the

1275
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:18,800
Speaker 1: prey down Georgia Street.

1276
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,840
Speaker 6: Granted, given the fact you have. I was about to

1277
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 6: say that past Payton the other day. I said, you

1278
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 6: know what they got, They got a little bronze you

1279
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 6: can put, you know, right here.

1280
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: On this other put Daniel Jones Jersey, I think on

1281
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,160
Speaker 1: on the Payton stage other uh. And you know, historical

1282
00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 1: context with the franchise when you haven't done it since

1283
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine. You know, James just brought it

1284
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,799
Speaker 1: up there a few minutes ago. But again, it's how

1285
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 1: they've done it, Daniel Jones, like James, you said it

1286
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 1: on Monday. I mean, if you make an MVP list

1287
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,239
Speaker 1: right now, he's on it. He's on it. I don't

1288
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 1: know where he is, but he is on number one.

1289
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 1: So that to me is the shocking element. And to

1290
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,920
Speaker 1: your point, you start to list locally, you know, the

1291
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,720
Speaker 1: teams we talk about the pacer go to the finals

1292
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 1: for the first time in twenty five years. In the

1293
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:07,080
Speaker 1: cinema of all the climactic moments, absolutely the Fever of

1294
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: one and again, all of these aren't different scales, but

1295
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 1: just to mention it, the Fever win their first playoff

1296
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 1: game in ten years. Given all the injuries. IU football

1297
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,480
Speaker 1: plays in the first ever college football playoff.

1298
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 4: Yes, before they lose to Illinois on Saturday.

1299
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 1: But Notre Dame makes really another kind of highlight reel

1300
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 1: run to the national title game. Perdue basketball just deserves

1301
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:33,440
Speaker 1: to be in a different category because they're just good.

1302
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,560
Speaker 1: Every year year they'll give you something to remember. So

1303
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: Perdue Basketball doesn't fall into that. But think about that

1304
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:40,320
Speaker 1: from a local stand Again, we'll obviously see how this

1305
00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: cult season plays out. The Colts would fall more into

1306
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: kind of like that Fever category. If you haven't done

1307
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 1: something in ten years, you might not win the Super Bowl,

1308
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: but again, just win a division title would mean you won.

1309
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 6: Your first opener twenty third you're two and oh for

1310
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 6: the first time two thousand and nine, so like, yeah,

1311
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 6: these are like small victories. But to take it to me,

1312
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 6: to feel different, to feel like you're trying to change

1313
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 6: something with this organization. You had to do something different,

1314
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,520
Speaker 6: and it's sometimes it's as simple as just starting better

1315
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 6: than you have in the past, I mean locally.

1316
00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: Think about that, and I get not everybody is whatever

1317
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,880
Speaker 1: a Notre Dame football fan, or not everybody is an

1318
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 1: IU fan, or obviously, you know, pretty basketball fans are

1319
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 1: not going to be rooting for necessarily ie you going

1320
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 1: to the college football playoffs. But like we have had

1321
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: a handful of, you know, pretty cool stories, and not

1322
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 1: all of it is hanging a banner inside of these buildings.

1323
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 1: But still they are reasons to celebrate and reasons to

1324
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 1: you know, have some joyous moment as a fan. And

1325
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: I probably should remind myself of that considering how I

1326
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,280
Speaker 1: feel about a Notre Dame. I own too, right, absolutely, And.

1327
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:41,280
Speaker 6: Last thing I'll say about it is just the fact

1328
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 6: that I think fandom and this is how I try

1329
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 6: to embrace it. It is so annoying when, for example,

1330
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 6: the Pacers managed the game something the finals, they lose,

1331
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:54,960
Speaker 6: Alberton gets hurt, and then inevitably you'll have somebody tell you, well,

1332
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 6: it's for nothing, any get a ring, And.

1333
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 4: I'm like, you can't tell me that.

1334
00:58:57,520 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 6: So for those who are able to enjoy kind of

1335
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 6: the journey and realize, yeah, my team might not win

1336
00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:06,160
Speaker 6: at all, and that's usually the case for every season,

1337
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 6: then I think you can get more satisfaction out of

1338
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 6: this because, for example, you know, are the Fever gonna

1339
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 6: win a WNBA championship this year? No, I believe they

1340
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 6: have no chance of doing that. However, the fact that

1341
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 6: they're still fighting, scratching and klawn is something you can

1342
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:22,200
Speaker 6: find some satisfaction, especially just with I think the swagger

1343
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 6: of the state. You know, you kind of hang your

1344
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 6: head on being blue collar, being the hard, you know

1345
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 6: hat type of people. So I think people can kind

1346
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:29,920
Speaker 6: of relate to that in a sense of like, Okay,

1347
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:32,080
Speaker 6: I'm scrapping and fighting my own life, and I can

1348
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 6: see them doing the same thing on the court.

1349
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,400
Speaker 5: If you guys are wondering right now, on a lot

1350
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 5: of sports books, Daniel Jones' is plus eight thousand to

1351
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 5: win MVP. He's a couple of spots behind Caleb Williams.

1352
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:46,000
Speaker 5: Still about that mark?

1353
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 7: What is that?

1354
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not a sportsbook maker. I didn't make

1355
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 3: those odds. I would jump all over that if.

1356
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:54,919
Speaker 1: I'm just reading for Daniel je Jeff, by the way,

1357
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: after Mark just dunked on you last segment, can you

1358
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 1: go back to Monday when Mark's team gave up a fifty.

1359
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 10: Burger and he mentions the refs that was just one

1360
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 10: of the many and he goes zebras. I mentioned it

1361
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 10: because it was like, is absolutely it's crazy.

1362
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 4: But you know what I like the doubling down, No from.

1363
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: The stop it James Boyd the fourteenth trying to draw

1364
01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 1: lines in the studio was ludicrous. You are fifty and

1365
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,960
Speaker 1: you're going zebra on on that call alone.

1366
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 4: Exactly. I'm never gonna say.

1367
01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:35,920
Speaker 1: Jeff dunk on him. I love you the alley you

1368
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:36,920
Speaker 1: dunk on him.

1369
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,959
Speaker 5: I love that you have my back, But I also

1370
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 5: realized it's in the context of you getting the dunk.

1371
01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: On Mark under the guise of having my back. I

1372
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: want the assist. I want you to have the poster.

1373
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 1: I'll throw the pass, but you finish it.

1374
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 4: It was insane by Mark, but you.

1375
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:57,280
Speaker 1: Mark, did you see the ice suck? I am terrible?

1376
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 5: Did you see the ice? See handshake between Dan Campbell

1377
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 5: and yourself and Ben Johnson after the game on Sunday?

1378
01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 5: Did you see that?

1379
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:06,560
Speaker 7: Yeah?

1380
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 1: I did, Man Dan, Dan Campbell, Ben Johnson mad that.

1381
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 1: I think Dan Campbell's still mad. Campbell's running up the

1382
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: score late. Mark, No, he understood it. He's like, what

1383
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,160
Speaker 1: do you what do you want him to do? Who

1384
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 1: do your bear's got?

1385
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 3: This week Cowboys America's game of the week apparently, but

1386
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 3: Tom Brady peping eyes for the Raiders in week four?

1387
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:28,640
Speaker 5: Uh all right, let's check it down here before it

1388
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:30,480

1410
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,919
Speaker 5: to that. Meanwhile, the Indianapolis Colts speck to work today

1411
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 5: over at West fifty sixth, getting ready for their first

1412
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:32,720
Speaker 5: road game of the year, their first divisional game against

1413
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 5: the Tennessee Titans. And you have not been impressed by

1414
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 5: the Titans so far, James, No, who would be simple enough, Kevin?

1415
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,880
Speaker 5: What what is Tennessee? I know, wells Tennessee need to

1416
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:47,720
Speaker 5: do to try and get back on track at home

1417
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 5: against a Colts team that's been hitting on most cylinders offense.

1418
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 1: And I thought James's answer was perfect. There you honestly, uh.

1419
01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 5: Tennessee's white scares me.

1420
01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 7: Man.

1421
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,280
Speaker 1: Tennessee's offense has been awful and their defense has been

1422
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 1: slightly better than all awful. They're dealing with a lot

1423
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 1: offensive line injuries too. Cam Wod's been sacked eleven times.

1424
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 1: I had some drops, so I know, you know there

1425
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 1: are some people and again we'll have a ross Tucker

1426
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 1: joined us at nine o'clock. I'm curious what he has

1427
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 1: seen from ward through two weeks, because there are to

1428
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:17,120
Speaker 1: people I think are a little bit higher on his

1429
01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 1: individual play than the raw numbers would show you. But

1430
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, again, this is the easiest road game on

1431
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:26,560
Speaker 1: the schedule, and it's going to be a party atmosphere.

1432
01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 1: You go down there and you take care of business,

1433
01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:31,040
Speaker 1: and you set up probably one of the more marquee

1434
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 1: games in these higher NFL coming up in a week

1435
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:35,840
Speaker 1: four undefeated Colts against you know, potentially the Rams or

1436
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 1: what the Rams two and zer right now? I think

1437
01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: they got the Eagles coming up play. That's a good

1438
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,520
Speaker 1: game for the Colts. Rams face the Eagles this week,

1439
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: kind of get beat up by them before they play.

1440
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:45,360
Speaker 8: You.

1441
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 7: I like it.

1442
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:48,520

1443
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:50,240

1444

1445
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:58,080

1446
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 3: Probably pretty high mass in Nashville, and Nashville is Yashville

1447
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:02,600
Speaker 3: is definitely a pretty high bet.

1448
01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:06,880

1549
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 12: and and uh, just a really really good group of

1550
01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 12: guys that have done a great job so far.

1551
01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:53,840
Speaker 1: Coach, great to hear your voice, thanks for hopping on.

1552
01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:56,200
Speaker 1: And James and I were fortunate to come to practice

1553
01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 1: probably about a month ago. And you know, the the

1554
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:02,639
Speaker 1: amateur eye did indicate definitely some more athleticism as you mentioned,

1555
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,479
Speaker 1: and length. How big of a focus was that and

1556
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 1: retooling your roster here this offseason.

1557
01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,840
Speaker 12: Well, it's very very important to us. I think, you know,

1558
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 12: that was the thing that I said, is we've got

1559
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 12: to add athleticism. You know, you have had the pleasure

1560
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,680
Speaker 12: of coaching some really, really good college basketball teams, and

1561
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 12: we were we were athletic because when you play in

1562
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:24,400
Speaker 12: the Big East Conference and you got to go through

1563
01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 12: twenty games, you know in the end that that adds

1564
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 12: up for you of just you know, having guys. You

1565
01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:33,759
Speaker 12: look at last year, we I think we led thirteen

1566
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:35,720
Speaker 12: to twenty games at halftime in the Big East and

1567
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:37,640
Speaker 12: a lot of times we ran out of gas. We

1568
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:40,519
Speaker 12: want as deep. You know, Jamie Kaiser not playing for

1569
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 12: us last year set us back a little bit. But

1570
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 12: I think just from the standpoint of of you know,

1571
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,679
Speaker 12: we wanted speed at positions, at the point guard position,

1572
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:55,080
Speaker 12: we wanted you know, longer athletic guys, and I think

1573
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,400
Speaker 12: we did that, and especially at the center position, we're

1574
01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:58,920
Speaker 12: much much more athletic there.

1575
01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:02,400
Speaker 6: You talk about that a lessonson coach. What has the

1576
01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 6: addition of Michael jaii Ben at least just early on

1577
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 6: as far as you getting him out, getting him alimated

1578
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,200
Speaker 6: to your program, and what's been your impression of the

1579
01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 6: form again Zaga product.

1580
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:15,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, I love Michael. I mean, his work work ethic

1581
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 12: is second to none. He's done a great job with

1582
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 12: his body. I mean, he's one of those guys he's

1583
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:26,160
Speaker 12: in the gym for hours every day just just trying

1584
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 12: to get better. He's very focused, he's he's a cerebral kid.

1585
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:32,720
Speaker 12: And I've enjoyed just sitting and talking with him and

1586
01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:36,559
Speaker 12: getting his thoughts and you know, trying to shape his mind.

1587
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:37,720
Speaker 12: You know, we're going to need him to be a

1588
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:39,960
Speaker 12: really really good player for us this year, and and

1589
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:41,640
Speaker 12: I think that's what he's looking for when he when

1590
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,800
Speaker 12: he left on Zaga to come here and and uh

1591
01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:47,360
Speaker 12: expecting big things from Michael Well.

1592
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:50,280
Speaker 5: The head coach the Butler men's basketball team, Thad Mana

1593
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 5: joining us on the Payless Liquors Hotline. It's such a

1594
01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:57,160
Speaker 5: special place for college basketball, and the conference is no

1595
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:00,160
Speaker 5: joke for you as a coach and coming back. I've

1596
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 5: been back for a bit now. But what makes it

1597
01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,400
Speaker 5: so special to you Butler basketball? Why is it just

1598
01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:06,320
Speaker 5: different there?

1599
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:10,240
Speaker 12: You know, I don't know's it's odd, you know, being

1600
01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 12: a guy who who played here and then obviously coached

1601
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,920
Speaker 12: here as an assistant and second stint as a head coach.

1602
01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:18,360
Speaker 12: You know, there's just there's I don't know what it is.

1603
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,439
Speaker 12: It's hard to explain. You I tell recruits and I

1604
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:22,280
Speaker 12: try to get them to do it.

1605
01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 7: They never do it.

1606
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 12: But I remember my father and I and I think

1607
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,559
Speaker 12: it was like eighty six, back in the late nineteen hundreds,

1608
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,120
Speaker 12: we walked into Hinkle and I just looked around. I said,

1609
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 12: I'm coming here, you know, And I'm more of a

1610
01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,200
Speaker 12: throwback old school, you know, raised in a small town.

1611
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 12: But I don't know, I find myself at times in

1612
01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:42,479
Speaker 12: practice kind of just looking around Hinko and being like, wow,

1613
01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:44,839
Speaker 12: you know, just everything that's ever occurred in this building,

1614
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,439
Speaker 12: and it's it's still it's it's pure. That's I think

1615
01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:50,360
Speaker 12: the thing that I love about Butler. And you know,

1616
01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 12: college athletics has become a business. It is what it is,

1617
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:58,840
Speaker 12: and but I think there's still pureness at Butler in

1618
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,720
Speaker 12: terms of the type of is that we you know,

1619
01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:03,559
Speaker 12: I feel recruits like, hey, we go to class here,

1620
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,400
Speaker 12: it's still college, you know, and the it's not online

1621
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,120
Speaker 12: and all that stuff. And I don't know, it's just

1622
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,920
Speaker 12: it is. It is a special, special place and will

1623
01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:16,000
Speaker 12: always be special to me. That's for sure, and and

1624
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:17,600
Speaker 12: you know, we get to do a better job of

1625
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 12: a protection our home court. We haven't been good at

1626
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,800
Speaker 12: that in three years. And you know that's something that

1627
01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:24,120
Speaker 12: is very very important to me.

1628
01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 1: Coach, kind of big picture and this is probably more

1629
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 1: of a college basketball question, obviously, you've been in the

1630
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,360
Speaker 1: game for a long time from a college standpoint. One

1631
01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:35,200
Speaker 1: of the more popular storylines we've seen in recent offseasons

1632
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:38,360
Speaker 1: about the nca Tournament and potential expansion to it, we

1633
01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:41,560
Speaker 1: will not get that this year. It is sticking to

1634
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 1: sixty eight. I know coach's opinion might differ than some

1635
01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:47,280
Speaker 1: others in the business. Do you have an opinion on

1636
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:50,920
Speaker 1: whether or not the tournament should expand I do.

1637
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 12: I think that. I remember I think it was Bob

1638
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:58,840
Speaker 12: Knight back in the eighties and led everybody in. And

1639
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 12: I just I've I've always been a complet as many

1640
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 12: as you can because it's it's so subjective now and

1641
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:08,760
Speaker 12: and when you think about it, you know, the all

1642
01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:11,680
Speaker 12: the you know, it's basically like computers that are are

1643
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:15,080
Speaker 12: deciding who goes and and uh me not being a

1644
01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:18,800
Speaker 12: tech guy, uh that that's probably not a good thing.

1645
01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,920
Speaker 12: But you know, you look at at some of these

1646
01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 12: conferences now, they don't even go to the conference tournament?

1647
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:28,160
Speaker 7: And like, what do you go to college for? Uh?

1648
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:29,880
Speaker 12: Or you know, I know wh to go to college for?

1649
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 12: I mean that, but like, you know, the team that

1650
01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 12: doesn't get to go to the conference tournament, that's like

1651
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:37,960
Speaker 12: I don't know, I mean that is that truly march madness,

1652
01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:41,320
Speaker 12: no doubt about that coach.

1653
01:13:41,400 --> 01:13:42,320
Speaker 4: One last one from me.

1654
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:44,800
Speaker 6: I had a chance to watch Think Robinson last year

1655
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:47,120
Speaker 6: at Lawrence North, and I was like, man, they're getting

1656
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:48,840
Speaker 6: a good one over at Butler because this guy can

1657
01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:50,479
Speaker 6: fill it up with some buckets.

1658
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:52,000
Speaker 4: What's been your impression of him?

1659
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:53,800
Speaker 6: And obviously to break that record at l AN you

1660
01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:55,640
Speaker 6: got to be pretty good because I believe he broke

1661
01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 6: Greg Golden's record.

1662
01:13:57,240 --> 01:13:58,200
Speaker 7: He did, he did.

1663
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,400
Speaker 12: Yeah, there's there's been a player to come through. Uh

1664
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,439
Speaker 12: Lawrence snorts and that's for sure. But uh, you know

1665
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:06,599
Speaker 12: his savior has been I love him and and I'll

1666
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 12: be honest with you, he's he's adapting to the college

1667
01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:14,080
Speaker 12: game really well. He's he's uh, he wants to be

1668
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,640
Speaker 12: a player, he wants to be coached and and you

1669
01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:19,400
Speaker 12: know he's got some some things that have you know,

1670
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:22,599
Speaker 12: God given abilities that I don't have drills to create,

1671
01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:25,559
Speaker 12: just with his speed and his his you know, ability

1672
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 12: to get up and guard and and uh, like I said,

1673
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,200
Speaker 12: I've been very pleased with with him and all the freshmen.

1674
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,640
Speaker 12: To be honest with you, it's funny yesterday we were

1675
01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:38,439
Speaker 12: practicing and and as we got going fast, uh, the

1676
01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:41,160
Speaker 12: game really got sped up. And I told the coaches after,

1677
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 12: I said, well, you can see who the freshmen were today, Uh,

1678
01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:47,320
Speaker 12: because he was going so fast and and uh, but no,

1679
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 12: he he has been really, really good and and you

1680
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:53,599
Speaker 12: know one of those guys that that wants to know everything,

1681
01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:55,280
Speaker 12: which is is what you want in a point guard.

1682
01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:57,880
Speaker 6: So follow up on that real quick. What because you've

1683
01:14:57,880 --> 01:14:59,680
Speaker 6: been around the game so long, what has it been

1684
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:02,840
Speaker 6: like to you see the team building sort of shift

1685
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:05,639
Speaker 6: because now if you get a transfer, he can play

1686
01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,840
Speaker 6: that year. So what's that balance of like the old

1687
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:10,800
Speaker 6: teams winning college, but you still want to have that

1688
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,320
Speaker 6: pipeline of your own talent coming through your program.

1689
01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,720
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's such a fine line, to be honest with you,

1690
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:20,839
Speaker 12: And you know, we laugh about it in recruiting meetings.

1691
01:15:21,240 --> 01:15:22,840
Speaker 12: You know, back in the day you could look three

1692
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:26,640
Speaker 12: years ahead and say, you know, the Xavier is going

1693
01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 12: to buy the time he's the junior, he's gonna be

1694
01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 12: an All League player, you know whatever, and how it's

1695
01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:33,080
Speaker 12: kind of like, hey to coach his team and see

1696
01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:35,640
Speaker 12: what the spring brings. But I think in terms of

1697
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:38,200
Speaker 12: the team building, the one thing that we've really tried

1698
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 12: to do is is hanging on guys character and trying

1699
01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 12: to find the right fit for our locker room and

1700
01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:49,879
Speaker 12: for Butler and and I think you know, the cohesive

1701
01:15:49,960 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 12: that's we have right now with ten new players on

1702
01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:55,200
Speaker 12: the roster has been tremendous. And you know, the one

1703
01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 12: thing you do get when you bring in older guys,

1704
01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 12: you get a certain level of maturity. And our older guys,

1705
01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 12: even though that maybe the first time here, have have

1706
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:07,640
Speaker 12: done a really really good job of of forming some

1707
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:11,799
Speaker 12: cohesiveness in terms of the locker room and practice habits

1708
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:13,640
Speaker 12: and and that sort of thing. So I've been very

1709
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:15,800
Speaker 12: very pleased with that because that that is a that

1710
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:18,120
Speaker 12: is something that you're a lot of times you're you're

1711
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 12: tooling a whole new team. And you know, fortunately for us,

1712
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,640
Speaker 12: having finlay back for his third season is a good

1713
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:25,160
Speaker 12: thing for us.

1714
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:29,439
Speaker 5: Coach. Last thing for me, amongst your returners, Mark Minner

1715
01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:32,439
Speaker 5: and Nick Gardner, how's that pair of working out for you?

1716
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:35,720
Speaker 12: I tell you what, those guys are great. They they

1717
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,320
Speaker 12: they'll do a you've heard them. And and you know,

1718
01:16:38,439 --> 01:16:41,840
Speaker 12: two special guys that both obviously love Butler, they love

1719
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 12: Butler basketball and and and they want us to do

1720
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,880
Speaker 12: as well as they can. And and I think just

1721
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,920
Speaker 12: from from that standpoint, they make my life easier in

1722
01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:53,400
Speaker 12: terms of the interviews and stuff that I have to do.

1723
01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 12: And and you know, very excited to work side by side.

1724
01:16:57,160 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 7: With us too.

1725
01:16:58,160 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 5: Always good to talk to you, coach. Can't wait for

1726
01:16:59,880 --> 01:17:01,800
Speaker 5: another season to get going. It'll be here before you

1727
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,719
Speaker 5: know it. And uh, we'll talk to you probably weekly.

1728
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,680
Speaker 5: I appreciate it, all right, guys, thank you. There is

1729
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,360
Speaker 5: the coach of the Butler basketball men's team, Fad Mada.

1730
01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:13,840
Speaker 5: He's seen a few things, he'd been around and it's

1731
01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:17,240
Speaker 5: a great question for someone like him. The world for

1732
01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:21,240
Speaker 5: college basketball has just changed dramatically in the last three years.

1733
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:23,439
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I know they're looking at their schedule.

1734
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:25,479
Speaker 6: They have an exhibition that they'll open up with against

1735
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:29,240
Speaker 6: More Dame October seventeenth, over at the Fieldhouse and then

1736
01:17:29,240 --> 01:17:31,760
Speaker 6: the official season opener will be over the field House

1737
01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 6: against Southern Indiana. But as look at the schedule, Kevin,

1738
01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:38,040
Speaker 6: you know that their first real testing is that like

1739
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,719
Speaker 6: South Carolina you get your at SMU, you got Virginia

1740
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:43,880
Speaker 6: on the schedule as well, So they got some people, certainly.

1741
01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 1: Loise, which is a team that kind of hovers around

1742
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:48,080
Speaker 1: the bubble like those are important games for But this

1743
01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:50,880
Speaker 1: is all before you get into your conference. Last year

1744
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:52,639
Speaker 1: they lost a couple by games, and you just can't

1745
01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:54,760
Speaker 1: lose that at all. You got to get yourself into

1746
01:17:54,760 --> 01:17:58,200
Speaker 1: good standing because the biggiat will offer opportunities. It also

1747
01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:00,120
Speaker 1: offers quite the grind because I think the depth to

1748
01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:02,519
Speaker 1: that conference always stands out. Yeah, love it for Mark Commander,

1749
01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:06,200
Speaker 1: Nick Gardner too. Awesome. Awesome dudes and Michael Jay who

1750
01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:09,360
Speaker 1: you just asked about James We saw him. He was

1751
01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 1: looking at is a grown man that has some skill,

1752
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:16,559
Speaker 1: some real skill. And I think if Butler's gonna hear

1753
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:19,280
Speaker 1: their name announced as one of those sixty eight, that's

1754
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,559
Speaker 1: a guy that's got to hear his name on probably

1755
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:23,479
Speaker 1: that All Big East first team. And he's got talent,

1756
01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:26,439
Speaker 1: He's got a world of talent, So definitely new look

1757
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:28,200
Speaker 1: there on the wing for Butler this year.

1758
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:30,320
Speaker 5: All right, still to come, we're gonna be speaking to

1759
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,719
Speaker 5: Ross Tucker about the Colts and their quick start. Also

01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:14,080
Speaker 5: hold it all together.

1772
01:19:14,160 --> 01:19:14,320
Speaker 7: Man.

1773
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:16,559
Speaker 5: Is that pretty much an accurate reflection of the show

1774
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:17,000
Speaker 5: so far.

1775
01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 3: Kevin, you were putting in the morgue basically in the

1776
01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:21,400
Speaker 3: break he thought he was dying and are you okay?

1777
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:25,120
Speaker 5: Checking out for good, called a doctor. He had a

1778
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 5: big sneeze and fit. I wanted to make sure he's walk.

1779
01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 1: Out of the bathroom and Jeff goes, are you okay?

1780
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:30,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, do you know what just happened behind that door?

1781
01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:32,880
Speaker 1: I like this Jesus.

1782
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:36,120
Speaker 5: In the hallway.

1783
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,120
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, I thought I was relatively quiet

1784
01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 1: and there I've had much louder bathroom experiences. If I'm

1785
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 1: going to be totally honest.

1786
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,160
Speaker 5: With you, I just saw you in the hallway and

1787
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:43,760
Speaker 5: was checking in.

1788
01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:48,880
Speaker 1: Then Ross Tucker in ten, a early early Daniel Jones believer.

1789
01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:52,479
Speaker 1: We had him on months ago and he was bullish and.

1790
01:19:52,560 --> 01:19:54,920
Speaker 4: Dan thought he was insane. Mark, Mark, I think I

1791
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 4: text you.

1792
01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:57,680
Speaker 1: I was like, let's get Ross Tucker on because he

1793
01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 1: believes in Daniel Jones and like we you know, it

1794
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:02,360
Speaker 1: was time for us to hear the other side of

1795
01:20:02,439 --> 01:20:04,880
Speaker 1: that conversation. So Ross Tucker, he will be on the call,

1796
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:08,639
Speaker 1: the CBS call, Tom McCarthy, Amanda Balionis and Company coming

1797
01:20:08,720 --> 01:20:10,800
Speaker 1: up Sunday at one o'clock. So looking forward to that

1798
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:11,960
Speaker 1: combo here in a field.

1799
01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:13,400
Speaker 5: It's gonna be a lot of fun. The Fever come

1800
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:15,599
Speaker 5: up with an eighty a seventy seven to sixty win

1801
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,760
Speaker 5: last night over the Atlanta Dream. They have even that

1802
01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:21,800
Speaker 5: best of three series at one game apiece. Big night

1803
01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:24,839
Speaker 5: for Kelsey Mitchell. Again, she just keeps coming through nineteen

1804
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:28,479
Speaker 5: points a Leah Boston at fifteen, Natasha Howard twelve and James.

1805
01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:30,759
Speaker 5: That's what you need right now. With as many injuries

1806
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:33,400
Speaker 5: as they've suffered, They've gotten great contributions from a lot

1807
01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:37,439
Speaker 5: of different players, but those big three just keep delivering. Yeah.

1808
01:20:37,479 --> 01:20:41,200
Speaker 6: I was listening to the postgame show on Believe it

1809
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 6: was ESPN last night, and they were saying that the

1810
01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:46,320
Speaker 6: Fever have had or one of a few teams in

1811
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 6: the league that have had, you know, through their players

1812
01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 6: at least start every single game this year at night again,

1813
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:55,000
Speaker 6: but you look at just the distribute, the distribution of

1814
01:20:55,200 --> 01:20:58,320
Speaker 6: some of the points, the playmaking, and really the energy

1815
01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:00,680
Speaker 6: as well. I got a kick out of Aerial powers man.

1816
01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:03,400
Speaker 6: She was powering up the crowd several times last night.

1817
01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,439
Speaker 6: She's uh she chest bumped Stephanie White at one point.

1818
01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:08,599
Speaker 6: I was thinking, Yep, this is going to be a win.

1819
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:12,719
Speaker 6: And even at one point after the third quarter sequence there, Jeff,

1820
01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:16,439
Speaker 6: you saw Kaitlin Clark jump probably like you know, fourteen

1821
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:18,080
Speaker 6: inches off the ground, if not higher.

1822
01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:20,360
Speaker 4: I was thinking, are you're supposed to be injured? Relaxed, relaxed.

1823
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:22,840
Speaker 4: So it was a good vibes there at at Gamers

1824
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:23,280
Speaker 4: Shot House.

1825
01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 5: Even Stophie Cunningham was standing up and kind of what

1826
01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:28,160
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say jumping up and down, but kind of

1827
01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:29,880
Speaker 5: like bouncing on her on her feet, and I'm like,

1828
01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 5: you're injured too, Sit down, Sophie cunning him. Yeah, I'll

1829
01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:36,360
Speaker 5: fire up, man questioned, No question about that. So the

1830
01:21:36,439 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 5: crowd was fired up. Everybody was good and now they

1831
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:39,559
Speaker 5: get ready.

1832
01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:40,960
Speaker 4: For so I got give Kaylyn some more love on

1833
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,280
Speaker 4: her vertical. Fourteen inches is probably a little too well said,

1834
01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:45,800
Speaker 4: but I was just thinking, like, keep it pretty low

1835
01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:47,840
Speaker 4: so you can stay healthy come next season. But good

1836
01:21:47,920 --> 01:21:48,799
Speaker 4: vibes there last.

1837
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:50,559
Speaker 5: Night, Yeah it was. And they will play Game three

1838
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:54,519
Speaker 5: tomorrow night at Atlanta seven thirty tip time, airtime seven

Speaker 5: to fifteen. Here at ninety three five and one on

1840
01:21:57,000 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 5: seven five the Fan. That's your fever focus briefly giving

1841
01:22:00,400 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 5: you a recap of what happened last night in the

1842
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:05,680
Speaker 5: game against the Atlanta Dream and it's brought to you

1843
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:08,080

1845
01:22:12,439 --> 01:22:15,560
Speaker 5: and I know Kevin you've downplayed a little bit, but

1846
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,719
Speaker 5: chance for Notre Dame to get right against Purdue this weekend.

1847
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:22,599
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know how right you can really get.

1848
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:24,720
Speaker 1: I think Notre Dame is gonna have to string quite

1849
01:22:24,760 --> 01:22:27,760
Speaker 1: a few together before they're right again or relevant in

1850
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:29,839
Speaker 1: the college football conversation for twenty.

1851
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:31,720
Speaker 5: The Reds for you, you're just giving up on them now.

1852
01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:35,599
Speaker 1: No, I'm not saying that. But when you lose two

1853
01:22:35,720 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 1: games like they have lost and the schedule is what

1854
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:40,639
Speaker 1: it is, you're not going to be in the college

1855
01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 1: Football Combo playoff wise unless you went out frankly, So

1856
01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:48,080
Speaker 1: that's just a reality where Notre Dame is at. Yeah, frustrating,

1857
01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:50,680
Speaker 1: and I thought they obviously blew one big time on

1858
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:53,160
Speaker 1: Saturday night, But that's a reality of where they're at.

1859
01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,320
Speaker 1: You know, a fifty point win over Purdue, or a

1860
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 1: twenty point win over Purdue, or a ten point went

1861
01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:58,960
Speaker 1: over Purdue, none of that's gonna matter. They're gonna have

1862
01:22:59,000 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 1: to win and win a lot. And you can't talk

1863
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,200
Speaker 1: about Notre Dame in terms of a twelve team playoff

1864
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:07,679
Speaker 1: until mid November with zero losses on their resume.

1865
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:09,559
Speaker 5: The rest of the way, they didn't get any help

1866
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:10,960
Speaker 5: from the Zebras. The other night either.

1867
01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:14,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I I am.

1868
01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,600
Speaker 1: I thought the I thought the officiating, particularly in the

1869
01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:20,400
Speaker 1: last play, was a bit rough. But Notre Dame also

1870
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:24,280
Speaker 1: did a lot to contribute to their own self infliction

1871
01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:28,360
Speaker 1: of that loss. So yeah, unlike Mark with a fifty,

1872
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,120
Speaker 1: it's either all or not Kevin, Jeff tries to put

1873
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 1: the banana bail out there.

1874
01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:40,639
Speaker 5: But I had no idea the conversation would would head

1875
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:41,160
Speaker 5: in that direction.

1876
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:42,760
Speaker 1: I will not take that, James Boyd. I think even

1877
01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:44,960
Speaker 1: reference to the holding penalty on the last play, and

1878
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:46,800
Speaker 1: I have yet I do, I have yet to bring

1879
01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:49,000
Speaker 1: it up this week. Jeff just brought it up right there.

1880
01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 1: I'll acknowledge it. Yeah, it was a bad call, and

1881
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 1: Notre Dame also deserved to lose the game.

1882
01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:54,680
Speaker 4: I wo wasn't a bad call because they didn't call

1883
01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:56,000
Speaker 4: it great no call.

1884
01:23:56,720 --> 01:24:01,000
Speaker 1: I believe Donovan Heinecott tackled with great with Greg Sankey

1885
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:02,839
Speaker 1: in the building and the SEC officials.

1886
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:04,800
Speaker 5: How good are the Colts right now? We'll talk to

1887
01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 5: somebody who's about to broadcast their game on Sunday and

1888
01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,760
Speaker 5: watch his pro football for a living, used to play

1889
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,760
Speaker 5: the game himself. Ross Tucker joins us next on ninety three,

1890
01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:16,120
Speaker 5: five and one oh seven five the Fan and James Boyd.

1891

1892
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:22,439
Speaker 5: and we're getting ready for the Colts game three week three.

1893
01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:25,600
Speaker 5: They're undefeated for the first time in a while. Everybody's

1894
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:28,679
Speaker 5: saying nice things about him nationally. We're excited. We can't

1895
01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:30,880
Speaker 5: wait to see how things work out over the next

1896
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:32,880
Speaker 5: couple of weeks. They've got Tennessee coming up on the

1897
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,720
Speaker 5: road this week, and then they play the Rams and

1898
01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:42,040
Speaker 5: Raiders and the Cardinals, and those are essentially winnable games,

1899
01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:44,200
Speaker 5: every one of them. Kevin, the way things stand right now.

1900
01:24:44,439 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, very froutloaded schedule on a positive manner. So, yeah,

1901
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:50,160
Speaker 1: the Colts have a golden, golden opportunity here early in

1902
01:24:50,280 --> 01:24:50,759
Speaker 1: this season.

1903
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:52,840
Speaker 5: All right, let's check in with one of those national

1910
01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, thank you for having me. It must be

1911
01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 7: a party. With the way this team has started this year.

1912
01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:18,759
Speaker 7: I'm excited for you guys, and I'm certainly very excited

1913
01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 7: to call this game on Sunday.

1914
01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,400
Speaker 1: As Jeff said, Ross will be on the call again, him,

01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:24,720
Speaker 1: Tom McCarthy, Amanda Ballely Ones, who does great work on

01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:28,080
Speaker 1: a lot of PJ Tour stuff. That'll be one o'clock

1917
01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 1: coming up, and you can follow Ross on social at

1918
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,840
Speaker 1: Ross Tucker NFL. Ross, I'll never forget we had you

1919
01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,519
Speaker 1: on probably I don't know, three four months ago because

1920
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:39,800
Speaker 1: you believed in Daniel Jones, like all of a sudden,

1921
01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:43,479
Speaker 1: I'm reading something you know this spring, and you were

1922
01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,760
Speaker 1: adamant that he would do something with the Colts in

1923
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:51,400
Speaker 1: a positive manner two weeks in. You are an absolute genius.

1924
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:53,640
Speaker 1: Why did you believe in Daniel Jones then? And what

1925
01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:54,840
Speaker 1: have you seen through two weeks?

1926
01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:59,320
Speaker 7: Well, first of all, thank you so much for remembering that,

1927
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:02,280
Speaker 7: and and you just gave me an idea. I need

1928
01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:06,599
Speaker 7: to tell my Ross Tucker Football podcast producer to pool

1929
01:26:06,640 --> 01:26:10,120
Speaker 7: all the clips from March from April, all of them

1930
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:13,280
Speaker 7: I'm going to take. As long as this keeps rolling,

1931
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 7: I'm going to take a bunch of victory laps. I'll

1932
01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:19,519
Speaker 7: tell you why. Okay, a couple things. First of all,

1933
01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:25,120
Speaker 7: you know, people forget Daniel Jones led a team to

1934
01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:29,240
Speaker 7: a road playoff victory. That is not easy to do,

1935
01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:33,040
Speaker 7: you know, to make the playoffs at all. And you

1936
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:35,479
Speaker 7: guys know that in recent years. Let alone then go

1937
01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 7: on the road and play extremely well against the Vikings

1938
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:43,760
Speaker 7: and actually win a road playoff game. And he did

1939
01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:48,040
Speaker 7: it with a Giants team that never had a good

1940
01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 7: offensive line when he was there, not one time. Never

1941
01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:55,439
Speaker 7: had a good skill position group around him, not one time.

1942
01:26:56,120 --> 01:27:00,280
Speaker 7: So I started with that part of it. Secondly, you

1943
01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:03,519
Speaker 7: guys know why do the Eagles preseason games. So I've

1944
01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:07,240
Speaker 7: been around Shane Stike in a lot and I think

1945
01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:11,240
Speaker 7: Jane's very good. I mean, I saw where he Hurts

1946
01:27:11,520 --> 01:27:15,439
Speaker 7: was and where he took Hurtz and it was like

1947
01:27:16,280 --> 01:27:20,479
Speaker 7: he went from being probably a below average starter to

1948
01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:24,920
Speaker 7: second in the MVP voting. Now listen, the Eagles rosters loaded,

1949
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:26,800
Speaker 7: and there's a lot of reasons for that, right But

1950
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:31,599
Speaker 7: I saw what Stike and did with the RPOs with Hertz,

1951
01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 7: and I thought I really like Daniel Jones in that system.

1952
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,800
Speaker 7: Daniel Jones can run, you know, And I think the

1953
01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:42,280
Speaker 7: biggest thing with Daniel Jones is getting rid of the

1954
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:46,200
Speaker 7: ball faster. The other thing I saw is what Saquon

1955
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:50,200
Speaker 7: looked like last year when he left the Giants. You know,

1956
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:52,800
Speaker 7: there's a reason why the Giants have been had the

1957
01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:55,679
Speaker 7: worst record in football over like the last five years.

1958
01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:58,880
Speaker 7: They're not good, right, It's hard for anybody to do well.

1959
01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:01,960
Speaker 7: There leaves and he's the offensive player of the year

1960
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,479
Speaker 7: in the league, Daniel Jones leaves and I don't know,

1961
01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:08,479
Speaker 7: he'd probably get He probably win the vote right now

1962
01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:10,760
Speaker 7: for Offensive Player of the Year after two games. I mean,

1963
01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:13,920
Speaker 7: he certainly would be in the running right now. So

1964
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:17,800
Speaker 7: all of those things combined are why. And I knew

1965
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:20,200
Speaker 7: that this was a better a line and certainly better

1966
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,960
Speaker 7: skill than Daniel had around him, So all of which

1967
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:27,240
Speaker 7: are reasons why I was bullish on it. Now, what

1968
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,360
Speaker 7: has to happen is the biggest thing. He has to

1969
01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:33,080
Speaker 7: stay healthy and not take shots like he did against

1970
01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:38,120
Speaker 7: the Dolphins. But what's so encouraging is there's like real

1971
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:42,639
Speaker 7: improvement that I don't know how, Like he's never been

1972
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 7: good at pocket movement, he's always been fast, and he's

1973
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:49,639
Speaker 7: a good runner, but his subtle pocket movement has always

1974
01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:53,440
Speaker 7: been lacking. And I'm watching this tape against the Broncos

1975
01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:57,840
Speaker 7: and he's moving around, He's like fading and still making throws.

1976
01:28:57,960 --> 01:28:59,800
Speaker 7: I'm like, who is this guy?

1977
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:00,360
Speaker 11: You know?

1978
01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:03,120
Speaker 7: I will say this. I thought it would work. I

1979
01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:06,120
Speaker 7: thought he would do well. I think he's probably doing

1980
01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 7: even even better than I had anticipated.

1981
01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:12,959
Speaker 6: Ross Tucker joining us now on the paylof slickers hotline.

1982
01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:15,160
Speaker 6: You can listen to him as the host of the

1983
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:18,639
Speaker 6: Ross Tucker Podcast. Get that wherever you subscribe to your podcast,

1984
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 6: and Ross to piggyback off at that point you just made.

1985
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:25,040
Speaker 6: When Daniel had success in New York in twenty twenty two,

1986
01:29:25,960 --> 01:29:28,040
Speaker 6: it was because he was also utilized as a runner.

1987
01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:30,439
Speaker 6: And what's surprising to me is that he really hasn't

1988
01:29:30,479 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 6: been a runner through the first two games. So what

1989
01:29:33,160 --> 01:29:35,880
Speaker 6: do you make of him really beating teams through the

1990
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:37,920
Speaker 6: air with his arm? And yes, he's had I think

1991
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:40,640
Speaker 6: he has three rushing touchdowns technically, but they all been

1992
01:29:40,720 --> 01:29:41,320
Speaker 6: QB sneaks.

1993
01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:42,960
Speaker 4: He hasn't been running the ball a lot.

1994
01:29:43,120 --> 01:29:45,080
Speaker 6: And so what do you think of maybe, you know,

1995
01:29:45,200 --> 01:29:47,360
Speaker 6: keeping him away from those types of hits and plays

1996
01:29:47,360 --> 01:29:48,920
Speaker 6: while still finding success through the air.

1997
01:29:50,400 --> 01:29:53,040
Speaker 7: Well. I think maybe Shane saw the hit he took

1998
01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:57,200
Speaker 7: against the Dolphins and thought, yeah, so I don't know

1999
01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:58,800
Speaker 7: if I want to I don't know if we want

2000
01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:01,840
Speaker 7: to do this unless we have to do this, which

2001
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:05,599
Speaker 7: I think is smart. That is also, by the way,

2002
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:11,680
Speaker 7: one of the fair critiques of Daniel is that he's

2003
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:15,519
Speaker 7: never really done a great job of protecting himself when

2004
01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:18,559
Speaker 7: he does run. You know, some guys do an awesome

2005
01:30:18,720 --> 01:30:22,439
Speaker 7: job of you know, always like Keeler Murray, it feels

2006
01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:25,519
Speaker 7: like he always runs out of bounder slides. Hurts is

2007
01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:28,600
Speaker 7: pretty good at that. Then these these other quarterbacks, and

2008
01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:30,720
Speaker 7: by the way, jayde Daniels is one of them that like,

2009
01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:34,479
Speaker 7: they have a strong tendency of getting master blasted. Let's

2010
01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:38,080
Speaker 7: just crushed. They just don't get it. And that's always

2011
01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:42,719
Speaker 7: been Daniel Jones, and so I think it's probably smart

2012
01:30:42,960 --> 01:30:45,599
Speaker 7: for Stichan to try to limit that as much as

2013
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 7: he can. But I just have to tell you, guys,

2014
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:52,599
Speaker 7: he's fast. And the fact that they're having this much

2015
01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 7: success without having to use that run game that much

2016
01:30:57,120 --> 01:31:02,040
Speaker 7: is highly encouraging because you know it's there and you

2017
01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:04,920
Speaker 7: know they can use it when they have to, and

2018
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:08,320
Speaker 7: by the way, they're running the ball pretty effectively. But

2019
01:31:08,479 --> 01:31:12,800
Speaker 7: if you're able to add Daniel's legs, he only has

2020
01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:18,040
Speaker 7: to do it once maybe twice a game where he

2021
01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 7: pulls it takes around the corner that you don't need

2022
01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 7: much five to twelve yards get out a bounds or slide,

2023
01:31:25,479 --> 01:31:28,960
Speaker 7: But just knowing he can do that, and just the

2024
01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:34,680
Speaker 7: threat of him doing that, it creates incredible angles for

2025
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:38,120
Speaker 7: the offensive line in the run game because the defense

2026
01:31:38,320 --> 01:31:42,360
Speaker 7: has to honor that. And I've seen it every look.

2027
01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:45,320
Speaker 7: I watch every snap the Eagles play. Because I do

2028
01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:48,840
Speaker 7: so much stuff in Philly radio and media and whatever

2029
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:51,960
Speaker 7: for the Eagles, I can't even begin to tell you

2030
01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:54,679
Speaker 7: how much of an advantage is. Yes, the Eagles offensive

2031
01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:57,760
Speaker 7: line is great, and yes, Hurts is good, blah blah blah.

2032
01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:02,439
Speaker 7: A lot of that is the scheme and the threat

2033
01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:07,280
Speaker 7: of Hurts and what that does to the opposition. And

2034
01:32:07,400 --> 01:32:11,000
Speaker 7: it's critically important that they do that once or twice

2035
01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:14,560
Speaker 7: a game so that Daniel Jones has that threat and

2036
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,559
Speaker 7: opens things up for Jonathan Taylor.

2037
01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:19,519
Speaker 5: He's the host of the Ross Tucker podcast, who you

2038
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:22,640
Speaker 5: should follow on social media. Ross Tucker NFL, and of

2039
01:32:22,720 --> 01:32:24,280
Speaker 5: course he'll be on the call for the Colts and

2040
01:32:24,360 --> 01:32:25,719
Speaker 5: Titans coming up this weekend.

2041
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:27,160
Speaker 7: Ross.

2042
01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 5: Everybody's talking about Daniel Jones as they should, everybody's talking

2043
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,560
Speaker 5: about Shane Steichen as they should. Tyler Warren's getting a

2044
01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:36,280
Speaker 5: lot of play, but can we talk about Jonathan Taylor

2045
01:32:36,320 --> 01:32:37,880
Speaker 5: in the impact he's had so far?

2046
01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:44,160
Speaker 7: I love Jonathan Taylor. I mean I can't believe that

2047
01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:49,760
Speaker 7: stat where he almost hit what twenty four twenty three

2048
01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:52,400
Speaker 7: miles an hour on that catch out of the backfield

2049
01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:54,880
Speaker 7: going down the sideline. I think I saw where it

2050
01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 7: was the fastest for a back since Raheem Moster a

2051
01:32:58,320 --> 01:33:04,800
Speaker 7: few years ago. I mean, absolutely incredible that Taylor at

2052
01:33:04,880 --> 01:33:08,000
Speaker 7: his size. I mean, he's not a small dude. This

2053
01:33:08,120 --> 01:33:11,799
Speaker 7: isn't Devin ah Chan for the Dolphins. Jonathan's a pretty

2054
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:16,120
Speaker 7: big dude to be rolling like that. It's such a

2055
01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:20,679
Speaker 7: good sign that he's healthy, that he has that type

2056
01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:24,680
Speaker 7: of speed. You know, obviously Warren is opening some things up.

2057
01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:28,160
Speaker 7: I mean right now, you know they have like the

2058
01:33:28,280 --> 01:33:33,680
Speaker 7: perfect mix of Tyler Warren and what he can do,

2059
01:33:34,040 --> 01:33:37,240
Speaker 7: Taylor out of the backfield, the run game, Pittman what

2060
01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:40,400
Speaker 7: he does and then being able and downs underneath, and

2061
01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:43,759
Speaker 7: then having two guys, not just one, but two guys

2062
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:47,040
Speaker 7: you can throw two downfield and Pierce and ad Mitchell.

2063
01:33:47,560 --> 01:33:49,680
Speaker 7: I'm just telling you, guys, I'm not trying to go overboard.

2064
01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:52,439
Speaker 7: It's two games. They got a really really good thing

2065
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:53,160
Speaker 7: going right now.

2066
01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:55,479
Speaker 5: Ken rossagger with us.

2067
01:33:55,479 --> 01:33:57,400
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear him on the call coming up Sunday

2068
01:33:57,600 --> 01:34:02,679
Speaker 1: one o'clock, that is, with McCarthy and Amanda Balleonis Ross

2069
01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:05,920
Speaker 1: last one for me. Obviously, we've dominated the conversation. Colt Swise.

2070
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:09,439
Speaker 1: Part of your studying has been cam Ward. You know,

2071
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:12,680
Speaker 1: the numbers won't overwhelm you in a positive direction by

2072
01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:15,280
Speaker 1: any means through two weeks, but it sounds like people

2073
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,680
Speaker 1: are a little bit more optimistic about cam more than

2074
01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:20,320
Speaker 1: just maybe the raw numbers look like. What have been

2075
01:34:20,360 --> 01:34:22,200
Speaker 1: your observations of the number one overall pick?

2076
01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:28,679
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I think it's probably what you would kind

2077
01:34:28,760 --> 01:34:32,559
Speaker 7: of expect from a number one overall pick. It's probably

2078
01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:36,439
Speaker 7: what you would kind of expect from a rookie. You know,

2079
01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:41,439
Speaker 7: there are some really really good plays that are high.

2080
01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:43,400
Speaker 7: I mean, he had a touchdown. I'm sure you guys

2081
01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:46,760
Speaker 7: have seen it, right, Sure you know, on the one hand,

2082
01:34:47,680 --> 01:34:52,479
Speaker 7: it's it's not a smart play to be running fast

2083
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:56,160
Speaker 7: and be at the sideline and throw the ball into

2084
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,439
Speaker 7: the end zone across the hash the other side of

2085
01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:02,920
Speaker 7: the field. I mean that pass should probably be intercepted

2086
01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:06,439
Speaker 7: more often than not. So it's one of those where

2087
01:35:06,439 --> 01:35:10,120
Speaker 7: you're like, oh man, that's a poor decision. The flip

2088
01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:18,720
Speaker 7: side is it was incredible. It was absolutely incredible. Like legitimately,

2089
01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:23,519
Speaker 7: I think this will sound like hyperbole, but I'm telling you, guys,

2090
01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:30,280
Speaker 7: it's not. It's like one of the best touchdown throws

2091
01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 7: we've seen in years. There's all kinds of next gen

2092
01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:38,120
Speaker 7: stats about how fast he was moving, how long he

2093
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:42,240
Speaker 7: held the ball, how far he actually threw it. I'm

2094
01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:45,320
Speaker 7: sure we're going to use it on the broadcast on Sunday,

2095
01:35:45,920 --> 01:35:49,240
Speaker 7: But it really is one of the craziest touchdown throws

2096
01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:53,840
Speaker 7: we've seen in years that, you know, probably number one,

2097
01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,360
Speaker 7: because guys just never even attempt something like that.

2098
01:35:57,400 --> 01:35:59,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, not only that, and real quickly too. I was

2099
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:02,880
Speaker 5: watching that and watching some of their game. It doesn't

2100
01:36:02,880 --> 01:36:04,760
Speaker 5: seem to me like Calvin Ridley's figured out how to

2101
01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:07,519
Speaker 5: catch that heater right now, because there's been some bad

2102
01:36:07,640 --> 01:36:08,680
Speaker 5: drops for him so far.

2103
01:36:10,479 --> 01:36:12,840
Speaker 7: Well, and that's some of that I would say too,

2104
01:36:13,160 --> 01:36:15,599
Speaker 7: I agree, but some of that would I would say

2105
01:36:15,680 --> 01:36:18,680
Speaker 7: two is on ward a little bit. He does have

2106
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:22,120
Speaker 7: the different throws and to layer the ball because not

2107
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:27,120
Speaker 7: every pass, you know, should be you know, a fastball

2108
01:36:27,200 --> 01:36:30,560
Speaker 7: as hard as he can throw it. My biggest frustration

2109
01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:34,240
Speaker 7: with him is like a lot of rookie quarterbacks, which

2110
01:36:34,320 --> 01:36:37,600
Speaker 7: is why a lot of times as offensive lineman, you

2111
01:36:37,680 --> 01:36:40,040
Speaker 7: don't like when they put a rookie quarterback out. There

2112
01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:43,160
Speaker 7: is just some of the sacks he's taking, right, I mean,

2113
01:36:43,720 --> 01:36:47,120
Speaker 7: some of the sacks he's taking stepping up into sacks,

2114
01:36:47,600 --> 01:36:50,280
Speaker 7: holding the ball too long. And then they were right

2115
01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:53,000
Speaker 7: there with the Rams. I mean, he had the game

2116
01:36:53,160 --> 01:36:58,720
Speaker 7: changing play when he got stripsacked when he held the

2117
01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:01,840
Speaker 7: ball too long number one, and then had really really

2118
01:37:02,160 --> 01:37:05,680
Speaker 7: poor ball security and that's when the that that's when

2119
01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:07,920
Speaker 7: the Rams game really got away from them. They had

2120
01:37:07,960 --> 01:37:09,760
Speaker 7: to leave with a minute left in the third quarter.

2121
01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:10,559
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2122
01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:15,760
Speaker 6: So right, last one we have for you, Ross Futurefans

2123
01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:19,120
Speaker 6: dot Com. I know you're big on teaching the game

2124
01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:20,559
Speaker 6: to the young folks, So what can you tell us

2125
01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:22,519
Speaker 6: about that and what it can mean for the youth.

2126
01:37:24,320 --> 01:37:27,360
Speaker 7: Well, so you guys will appreciate this because the guys

2127
01:37:27,479 --> 01:37:32,080
Speaker 7: that invented this are Bengals fans, and a few years

2128
01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 7: ago they could not get their young kids to watch

2129
01:37:36,439 --> 01:37:39,400
Speaker 7: the Bengals during that epic playoff run to the super Bowl.

2130
01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:41,599
Speaker 7: You know, their kids wanted to be on their iPad

2131
01:37:41,840 --> 01:37:44,240
Speaker 7: or doing other things. They're like, we'll watch next year.

2132
01:37:44,280 --> 01:37:46,560
Speaker 7: They're like, no, no, no, we're Bengals fans, like, we

2133
01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:48,840
Speaker 7: don't go to the Super Bowl sit on the couch

2134
01:37:48,920 --> 01:37:51,960
Speaker 7: and watch. So these guys said, we got to figure

2135
01:37:52,040 --> 01:37:53,920
Speaker 7: something out because I don't know, I don't know if

2136
01:37:53,920 --> 01:37:56,479
Speaker 7: you guys have kids or how old they are. It's

2137
01:37:56,560 --> 01:38:00,800
Speaker 7: actually really hard to get kids to just sit down

2138
01:38:00,880 --> 01:38:03,160
Speaker 7: and watch the whole game with you. I mean my daughters.

2139
01:38:03,600 --> 01:38:05,920
Speaker 7: You know, I'm a football guy. I can't get them.

2140
01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 7: The older one will watch a little bit longer, the

2141
01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:13,080
Speaker 7: younger one has like no interest, they want to be

2142
01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:16,880
Speaker 7: on their iPad or whatever. So these guys have cracked

2143
01:38:16,920 --> 01:38:20,240
Speaker 7: the code. It's called futurefans dot Com. They know the

2144
01:38:20,439 --> 01:38:25,360
Speaker 7: younger kids they like reading story books, they like activities,

2145
01:38:25,680 --> 01:38:29,439
Speaker 7: you know, games, so they've combined those things. So check

2146
01:38:29,479 --> 01:38:32,880
Speaker 7: it out at futurefans dot Com. I think it's sixty bucks,

2147
01:38:33,000 --> 01:38:35,240
Speaker 7: but if you go there right now, they'll send you

2148

2150
01:38:41,360 --> 01:38:45,000
Speaker 7: really giving yourself a gift because, especially now that it

2151
01:38:45,120 --> 01:38:48,200
Speaker 7: looks like the Colts are good, think about how awesome

2152
01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:50,080
Speaker 7: that would be if they would sit there and watch

2153
01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:54,320
Speaker 7: this Colts team with you every Sunday and enjoy this squad.

2154
01:38:54,800 --> 01:38:57,280
Speaker 7: It's like the gift that keeps on giving them. I

2155
01:38:57,360 --> 01:39:00,600
Speaker 7: want every kid to at least understand it and go

2156
01:39:00,800 --> 01:39:04,560
Speaker 7: ahead and watch the games with their dads, like and

2157
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:07,920
Speaker 7: moms whoever, like we did growing up. It's called futurefans

2158
01:39:07,960 --> 01:39:10,600
Speaker 7: dot com. I'm a big fan. Highly recommend it.

2159
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:12,519
Speaker 5: Thanks buddy, we'll talk to you soon.

2160
01:39:14,040 --> 01:39:15,479
Speaker 7: Sounds great. Thanks for having me. Guys.

2161
01:39:15,600 --> 01:39:18,840
Speaker 5: There is Ross Tucker on the Payless Slickers hotline right there,

2162
01:39:18,960 --> 01:39:21,000
Speaker 5: and he makes a lot of good points. I mean,

2163
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:24,280
Speaker 5: I see why football guys are excited about this team

2164
01:39:24,320 --> 01:39:27,839
Speaker 5: because Tyler Warren does open up a lot of the offense.

2165
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:31,320
Speaker 5: James and Daniel Jones has been the perfect point guard

2166
01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 5: for all of this. So far, we know that it's

2167
01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:37,679
Speaker 5: a very well above average receiving squad, and you throw

2168
01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:40,920
Speaker 5: in the uber talent to Jonathan Taylor. There's a lot

2169
01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:42,479
Speaker 5: to be excited about with this team.

2170
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:45,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, But like I said, when I talk to JT

2171
01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:46,800
Speaker 6: this week, I'm gonna ask him, hey, man, you're hitting

2172
01:39:46,840 --> 01:39:48,760
Speaker 6: all these high knowledge marks and you can't get in

2173
01:39:48,800 --> 01:39:51,000
Speaker 6: the end zone on that catch and run. Come on, man,

2174
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:53,600
Speaker 6: you know I got to pick something to hate on,

2175
01:39:53,760 --> 01:39:56,479
Speaker 6: right to nitpick, But no, he's been fantastic. He's leading

2176
01:39:56,560 --> 01:39:59,479
Speaker 6: league in rushing through two weeks. Daniel Jones looks like

2177
01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:03,360
Speaker 6: Tyry's burden out there with the distribution of the passes,

2178
01:40:03,520 --> 01:40:06,120
Speaker 6: and my only concerns, you know, how do you look defensively?

2179
01:40:06,760 --> 01:40:10,600
Speaker 6: I get that you wanted to perhaps and Leu and

2180
01:40:10,600 --> 01:40:13,080
Speaker 6: Hermo talk about this a little bit in his Zoom

2181
01:40:13,160 --> 01:40:13,959
Speaker 6: call yesterday.

2182
01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:17,600
Speaker 4: They concede it more runs in a sense.

2183
01:40:17,400 --> 01:40:19,000
Speaker 6: To the Dolphins because they were so scared to get

2184
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:21,639
Speaker 6: me over the top due to Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill.

2185
01:40:22,160 --> 01:40:24,840
Speaker 6: But I, like Kevin said earlier throughout the show, that

2186
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,240
Speaker 6: linebacker group, I want to see some more from them,

2187
01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:29,400
Speaker 6: particularly when it comes to stopping the run and really

2188
01:40:29,439 --> 01:40:31,440
Speaker 6: that over the middle type of coverage.

2189
01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:35,240
Speaker 5: And uh, they'll be back at work later on today

2190
01:40:35,280 --> 01:40:37,160
Speaker 5: over at WES fifty six. We'll probably learn a little

2191
01:40:37,200 --> 01:40:40,639
Speaker 5: bit more about any kind of injury concerns, concussion protocol,

2192
01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:43,519
Speaker 5: all those kinds of things. For everything else, Mark, let's

2193
01:40:43,680 --> 01:40:44,000
Speaker 5: check it.

2194
01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:48,599
Speaker 8: Down the morning checkout on nineties sweet five and one

2195
01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:50,040
Speaker 8: oh seven five the fat.

2196
01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:53,680
Speaker 5: We're gonna start with the WNBA playoffs and a big

2197
01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:56,520
Speaker 5: win for the Indiana Fever last night at the Fieldhouse

2198
01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:01,360
Speaker 5: seventy seven to sixty. You were there, James Boyd start

2199
01:41:01,439 --> 01:41:03,320
Speaker 5: to finish, never in doubt, right.

2200
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:07,760
Speaker 6: Not really, and especially after that third quarter floory, because

2201
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,559
Speaker 6: at one point I believe the lead had been cut

2202
01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:13,800
Speaker 6: to three, and then the Atlanta dream Nea Coffee missed

2203
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:16,200
Speaker 6: a layup, I mean a gimme layup, and then they

2204
01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:18,639
Speaker 6: took that at that swing in that husting of momentum

2205
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:20,479
Speaker 6: and just closed them out in that third quarter. And

2206
01:41:20,520 --> 01:41:22,000
Speaker 6: I thought when they went up fifteen going to the

2207
01:41:22,040 --> 01:41:25,000
Speaker 6: fourth quarter, barring anything crazy, that game was over then.

2208
01:41:25,120 --> 01:41:27,320
Speaker 4: And so the good news about that, Jeff, is that

2209
01:41:27,479 --> 01:41:28,759
Speaker 4: you're able to rest your stars.

2210
01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,320
Speaker 6: So Kelsey Mitchell did not play a whole lot late

2211
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:33,720
Speaker 6: and Eleah Boston is the same, and so that's good

2212
01:41:33,760 --> 01:41:36,640
Speaker 6: for you going into tomorrow's game at Atlanta, which is

2213
01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:37,080
Speaker 6: for all.

2214
01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:39,920
Speaker 5: The marbles, Kevin, that was the first playoff when in

2215
01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:42,040
Speaker 5: almost a decade for the Fever, I send it to

2216
01:41:42,120 --> 01:41:42,639
Speaker 5: lead off the show.

2217
01:41:42,680 --> 01:41:44,479
Speaker 1: I thought the end of the third quarter reminded me

2218
01:41:44,560 --> 01:41:47,280
Speaker 1: a little bit of Game six Pacers Thunder, like that

2219
01:41:47,520 --> 01:41:51,680
Speaker 1: crescendo moment of was. I think Aliah Boston had the

2220
01:41:51,760 --> 01:41:53,800
Speaker 1: lay up and then I think shape Petty kind of

2221
01:41:53,800 --> 01:41:57,360
Speaker 1: tipped that inbounds pass, Kelsey Mitchell gets it around the horn,

2222
01:41:57,520 --> 01:42:01,880
Speaker 1: Lexi Hall bangs home that three. That again kind of

2223
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:05,000
Speaker 1: building up moment reminded me a little bit of that

2224
01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:07,640
Speaker 1: Pacers Thunder Game six, and after the bench unit. I know,

2225
01:42:07,720 --> 01:42:11,560
Speaker 1: obviously Kelsey Mitchell, Leah Boston, they obviously deserve their flowers,

2226
01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:14,400
Speaker 1: but you know Petty and Bree Turner, KK Timpson. I mean,

2227
01:42:14,400 --> 01:42:16,080
Speaker 1: you want to talk about a rookie, they've asked to

2228
01:42:16,240 --> 01:42:18,479
Speaker 1: play a much bigger role with all the injuries that

2229
01:42:18,560 --> 01:42:21,280
Speaker 1: have had that have happened here, aerial powers as well,

2230
01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:24,760
Speaker 1: really really key minutes. And now you just go back

2231
01:42:24,800 --> 01:42:28,000
Speaker 1: to Atlanta with house money galore, all the pressure, all

2232
01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:30,519
Speaker 1: the pressure on the Atlanta Dream coming up tomorrow night.

2233
01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:33,200
Speaker 1: I want to say it's ESPN two at seven thirty.

2234
01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:35,400
Speaker 5: It was so much fun to watch all that excitement

2235
01:42:35,479 --> 01:42:36,840
Speaker 5: and after that big three at the end of the

2236
01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 5: third quarter. I love the roar for Lexi Hall after

2237
01:42:41,560 --> 01:42:43,120
Speaker 5: that shot man. She was fired up.

2238
01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:45,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was loud, probably a lot, and I've heard

2239
01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:47,080
Speaker 6: it in quite some time now. Granted I haven't been

2240
01:42:47,600 --> 01:42:49,559
Speaker 6: to a lot of their home games as of late,

2241
01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:51,640
Speaker 6: but I've been to a lot of big ones, and

2242
01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:54,880
Speaker 6: that sounded like, you know, just we believe we can

2243
01:42:54,920 --> 01:42:57,720
Speaker 6: actually win this thing, and so exciting for them, and

2244
01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,680
Speaker 6: shout out to Kelsey Mitchell again threw a lot with

2245
01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:03,599
Speaker 6: this Fever team and she had a big game last

2246
01:43:03,680 --> 01:43:06,840
Speaker 6: night to lead them to their first playoff win in

2247
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:07,679
Speaker 6: ten years.

2248
01:43:07,920 --> 01:43:10,640
Speaker 1: Tyrates Alibert kind of the JV Pat McAfee version on

2249
01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:11,000
Speaker 1: the mic.

2250
01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:11,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah he did.

2251
01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,520
Speaker 4: He didn't, like, you know, drop as much profanity.

2252
01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:18,800
Speaker 11: That's really like his mom one like it hell or ask,

2253
01:43:20,160 --> 01:43:23,680
Speaker 11: which was like, yeah her, but it was like the

2254
01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:25,800
Speaker 11: seventh grader, like cussing in front of his parents for

2255
01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:27,000
Speaker 11: the first time exactly.

2256
01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:30,679
Speaker 6: So we saw halliburdon there with his fiance now Jade

2257
01:43:30,680 --> 01:43:32,439
Speaker 6: as well, and they had a good time. And I

2258
01:43:32,560 --> 01:43:34,400
Speaker 6: feel like, you know, when he said we've seen a

2259
01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:36,120
Speaker 6: lot of good playoff basketball here at game Bridge, he

2260
01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:37,519
Speaker 6: was not lying. It kind of brought back a lot

2261
01:43:37,520 --> 01:43:39,640
Speaker 6: of memories and the fever in their own sense on

2262
01:43:39,640 --> 01:43:41,559
Speaker 6: a lesser scale, like you pointed out, Kevin, are trying

2263
01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:42,800
Speaker 6: to create their own memories as well.

2264
01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:45,840
Speaker 5: All right, we'll have Stephanie White at one thirty pm

2265
01:43:45,880 --> 01:43:49,160
Speaker 5: today with Jake at of course, going to be televised

2266
01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:52,360
Speaker 5: on ESPN two Thursday night, but we highly encourage people,

2267
01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:54,320
Speaker 5: of course to listen to the fan. John Nolan and

2268
01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:57,200
Speaker 5: Bria Goss do a terrific job there seven to fifteen

2269
01:43:57,240 --> 01:44:01,920
Speaker 5: airtime with Eddie Garrison Tomorrow night for Game three. Let's

2270
01:44:01,920 --> 01:44:04,040
Speaker 5: talk some Major League Baseball before we get back to

2271
01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:06,760
Speaker 5: the Colts, because I know that you guys think the

2272
01:44:06,840 --> 01:44:09,040
Speaker 5: Reds are dead and they lose last night. I gets

2273
01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:12,440
Speaker 5: I don't think nothing as long a until they're mathematically eliminated.

2274
01:44:12,479 --> 01:44:14,960
Speaker 5: I'm believing they lose last night three nothing to the

2275
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,800
Speaker 5: Saint Louis Cardinals. That costeth the Pirates four to one.

2276
01:44:18,320 --> 01:44:20,680
Speaker 5: But we have had an amazing mark. You know this

2277
01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:22,559
Speaker 5: because you watch all these games. You do too, Kevin,

2278
01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:25,559
Speaker 5: It's been an amazing Major League Baseball season. Last night,

2279
01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:28,120
Speaker 5: for example, two things I want to point out. Cal Raley,

2280
01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:30,840
Speaker 5: the catcher for the Mariners, hit two home runs number

2281
01:44:30,920 --> 01:44:34,000
Speaker 5: fifty five and fifty six, all time leader now for

2282
01:44:34,080 --> 01:44:36,400
Speaker 5: switch hit her home runs in a season. It's just

2283
01:44:36,479 --> 01:44:39,479
Speaker 5: been amazing to watch. And we take him for granted.

2284
01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:43,240
Speaker 5: Now show hey Otani the man now granted the Dodgers

2285
01:44:43,280 --> 01:44:47,240
Speaker 5: lost last night, he threw five no hit innings and

2286
01:44:47,400 --> 01:44:50,320
Speaker 5: then hit his fiftieth home run in the same game.

2287
01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:52,639
Speaker 1: That's I still don't.

2288
01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:54,040
Speaker 5: Think we give that enough run, Kevin.

2289
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:58,000
Speaker 1: I'll never forget a JV golf tournament for me freshman

2290
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:01,479
Speaker 1: year and at cool LA in Lebanon, and I hole

2291
01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:04,559
Speaker 1: out from fifty yards for a nine. Okay, I make

2292
01:45:04,600 --> 01:45:08,560
Speaker 1: a nine on a hole. My mom is clapping thunderously

2293
01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:12,240
Speaker 1: about thirty yards behind me. My brother, I come to

2294
01:45:12,320 --> 01:45:14,679
Speaker 1: find out, says to my mom, why are you clapping?

2295
01:45:15,240 --> 01:45:17,040
Speaker 1: And you know, my Mom's like, he just made it.

2296
01:45:17,320 --> 01:45:19,240
Speaker 1: That's one of the furthest shots I've ever seen him

2297
01:45:19,240 --> 01:45:21,400
Speaker 1: make one. And Ryan goes, he made a nine on

2298
01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:25,280
Speaker 1: the whole. That sounds like Jeff talking about the Reds. Wow,

2299
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:29,599
Speaker 1: Like every day Jeff's like, oh man, the Reds are

2300
01:45:29,640 --> 01:45:32,479
Speaker 1: still in it, guys. And it's like, wait, nothing indicates

2301
01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:35,439
Speaker 1: that the Reds are in it, dude, outside of they're

2302
01:45:35,479 --> 01:45:36,439
Speaker 1: mathematically alive.

2303
01:45:36,560 --> 01:45:40,960
Speaker 5: All they need are three consecutive eagles on fifteen or sixteen,

2304
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:42,960
Speaker 5: seventeen and eighteen. That's it. It's all they need.

2305
01:45:43,000 --> 01:45:47,479
Speaker 1: And are they Scottie Scheffler, No, damn no, But they're

2306
01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:50,640
Speaker 1: in the game. They're they're dead. They've been dead for

2307
01:45:50,800 --> 01:45:52,400
Speaker 1: weeks enough, Like this.

2308
01:45:52,560 --> 01:45:54,000
Speaker 5: Is therapy for you to enough.

2309
01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:58,280
Speaker 1: I feel like it's even Mark has stopped dangling the carrot.

2310
01:45:58,439 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 1: Who knows it's over?

2311
01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:01,519
Speaker 4: Say, Mark definitely jumped off that train.

2312
01:46:01,560 --> 01:46:04,840
Speaker 3: Who's our guy in golf? Where's the suspenders?

2313
01:46:04,880 --> 01:46:05,400
Speaker 5: The old guy?

2314
01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:06,160
Speaker 3: What's his name?

2315
01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:10,639
Speaker 1: Oh, the dude in the Masters. Yeah, Sandy Lyle.

2316
01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:13,120
Speaker 3: Sandy Lyle. The Reds are Sandy Lyle. They're just showing

2317
01:46:13,200 --> 01:46:16,360
Speaker 3: up at this point, clucting a paycheck. But no one

2318
01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:17,400
Speaker 3: expects anything out of it.

2319
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:23,639
Speaker 5: Uh, there's always hope, Mark, There's always there is them

2320
01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:24,240
Speaker 5: off already.

2321
01:46:25,560 --> 01:46:26,000
Speaker 1: Thank you for that.

2322
01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:28,439
Speaker 5: All right, Back to the NFL. The Colts play on

2323
01:46:28,560 --> 01:46:32,200
Speaker 5: the road, Sunday afternoon in Nashville, Tennessee. If we can

2324
01:46:32,240 --> 01:46:35,080
Speaker 5: get James Priede away from someone's bachelorette party long enough

2325
01:46:35,160 --> 01:46:37,800
Speaker 5: on Saturday night, what do you expect to see in

2326
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:38,479
Speaker 5: that football game?

2327
01:46:38,560 --> 01:46:40,360
Speaker 6: First of all, me and Grant are taking a road trip,

2328
01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:43,040
Speaker 6: so you know I'm gonna ask him, Hey, what'd you

2329
01:46:43,120 --> 01:46:45,679
Speaker 6: learn having the co ed at your house last week?

2330
01:46:45,760 --> 01:46:47,240
Speaker 4: You know, give me some pointers as I go down

2331
01:46:47,240 --> 01:46:47,759
Speaker 4: to Nashville.

2332
01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:50,760
Speaker 6: We'll have a great brother trip and I'll report back

2333
01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:53,160
Speaker 6: to you, you know, Monday morning, Jeff. But no, as

2334
01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:55,160
Speaker 6: far as the game goes, I mean a lot of

2335
01:46:55,240 --> 01:46:57,160
Speaker 6: it has to do with can you just make life

2336
01:46:57,200 --> 01:46:57,880
Speaker 6: miserable again?

2337
01:46:57,920 --> 01:46:58,559
Speaker 4: For cam Ward?

2338
01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:01,439
Speaker 6: You should not lose to rookie quarterbacks. I feel like

2339
01:47:01,479 --> 01:47:03,760
Speaker 6: that's just a blanket roll I have in my mind.

2340
01:47:03,880 --> 01:47:07,080
Speaker 6: You know, hey, if you haven't seen this before, then

2341
01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:09,600
Speaker 6: we should have the upper hand by a lot. And

2342
01:47:09,680 --> 01:47:12,040
Speaker 6: so you have the veteran quarterback, your team is rolling,

2343
01:47:12,120 --> 01:47:15,599
Speaker 6: they're playing poorly, handle business, and so beyond that, I'm

2344
01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:18,400
Speaker 6: looking at the health factors. You know, instraverious war back

2345
01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:20,360
Speaker 6: in the lineup is like out too lot to back

2346
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:22,679
Speaker 6: in the lineup, or do you rest him even fresh

2347
01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:25,080
Speaker 6: for a Week four matchup against the Rams, we might

2348
01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:26,920
Speaker 6: need him a little bit more. So those are some

2349
01:47:26,960 --> 01:47:29,400
Speaker 6: factors I'm considering for sure, and hopefully I'm well rested

2350
01:47:29,479 --> 01:47:32,120
Speaker 6: after Illinois beats the breaks off of Indiana Saturday night.

2351
01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:34,360
Speaker 1: Now, will you be out the whole time? I mean,

2352
01:47:34,439 --> 01:47:37,519
Speaker 1: like you aren't a big fan of the big time

2353
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:41,480
Speaker 1: game bar atmosphere, correct, I'm usually.

2354
01:47:41,280 --> 01:47:43,599
Speaker 6: Not, But like I said, I'm going out with Mate,

2355
01:47:43,720 --> 01:47:45,800
Speaker 6: so whatever we decide, I'm cool with that. And I

2356
01:47:45,880 --> 01:47:47,640
Speaker 6: think it helps to have somebody else there that at

2357
01:47:47,680 --> 01:47:49,640
Speaker 6: least is locked into the game with you. I think

2358
01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:51,439
Speaker 6: if it's just like I've done it a few times

2359
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:53,040
Speaker 6: on the road where I'll you know, get something to eat,

2360
01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:54,639
Speaker 6: go to a bar, and it's like if they ain't

2361
01:47:54,680 --> 01:47:56,519
Speaker 6: really watching the game, I can't be here right now.

2362
01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:59,280
Speaker 6: So it should be fun and I'm excited about it

2363
01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:00,360
Speaker 6: all right.

2364
01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:04,800
Speaker 5: That one will start one o'clock Sunday afternoon, and we'll

2365
01:48:04,840 --> 01:48:07,280
Speaker 5: watch it right here with everybody else and hope that

2366
01:48:07,439 --> 01:48:09,800
Speaker 5: we see you in the press box and you make

2367
01:48:09,840 --> 01:48:11,800
Speaker 5: it back from your adventures with Mate.

2368
01:48:11,920 --> 01:48:14,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, honestly, I mean as a non drinker, you just

2369
01:48:14,360 --> 01:48:18,479
Speaker 6: see everybody else have eventful nights on Broadway and regret

2370
01:48:18,520 --> 01:48:19,080
Speaker 6: it the next day.

2371
01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:20,000
Speaker 4: I never regret anything.

2372
01:48:20,080 --> 01:48:20,840
Speaker 1: Hey, that's the truth.

2373
01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:22,720
Speaker 5: Anything else you want to throw in there, Kevin before

2374
01:48:22,760 --> 01:48:24,560
Speaker 5: we move along here, uh predue.

2375
01:48:24,479 --> 01:48:27,320
Speaker 1: Nearly a four touchdown underdog for the fighting Irish. Sounds

2376
01:48:27,360 --> 01:48:29,439
Speaker 1: like Notre Dame will banged up at corner. We'll see

2377
01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:31,680
Speaker 1: if Purdue. I thought Purdue hung in there with USC.

2378
01:48:31,840 --> 01:48:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, Ryan Brown through what two three red zone interceptions?

2379
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:38,720
Speaker 1: I picked six still covered even though you know that

2380
01:48:38,960 --> 01:48:40,960
Speaker 1: is something that you know perdue. I think that that

2381
01:48:41,280 --> 01:48:43,960
Speaker 1: score maybe didn't indicate how much Purdue is in that game.

2382
01:48:44,040 --> 01:48:46,320
Speaker 1: So we'll see how they hang in there again. That's

2383
01:48:46,360 --> 01:48:49,599
Speaker 1: three thirty Saturday, South Bend. That feeds right into Notre

2384
01:48:49,720 --> 01:48:52,720
Speaker 1: Dame or exees me right into Illinois and Indiana. So

2385
01:48:52,960 --> 01:48:55,360
Speaker 1: NBC three thirty and then NBC at seven thirty.

2386
01:48:55,200 --> 01:48:56,640
Speaker 5: A right coming up at a moment. I've got a

2387
01:48:56,720 --> 01:49:02,280
Speaker 5: question for both Kevin and James about the AFC South.

2388
01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:04,439
Speaker 5: I'll ask you next to ninety three five and one

2389
01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:20,919
Speaker 5: oh seven five of the Fan you were listening to about.

2390
01:49:20,720 --> 01:49:23,880
Speaker 8: Fan Morning show on Sports Radio ninety three to five

2391
01:49:23,960 --> 01:49:25,879
Speaker 8: and one oh seven five The Fan.

2392
01:49:27,920 --> 01:49:33,599
Speaker 5: A Happy Wednesday culture too, and oh fever. Coming off

2393
01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:37,200
Speaker 5: a playoff win, deep run of the playoffs for the

2394
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:43,160
Speaker 5: Indiana Pacers, deep run for Purdue basketball Indiana Football International

2395
01:49:43,240 --> 01:49:48,160
Speaker 5: playoff last year, life is good right now. Life is

2396
01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:50,360
Speaker 5: pretty good in Indianapolis for sports fans right now.

2397
01:49:50,479 --> 01:49:50,719
Speaker 7: KB.

2398
01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:53,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked about it earlier. I mean you can

2399
01:49:53,040 --> 01:49:55,559
Speaker 1: go a little further, whether you're a IU football fan

2400
01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:58,799
Speaker 1: that are named football fan recent you know years obviously

2401
01:49:59,000 --> 01:50:02,240
Speaker 1: with those two runs season and don't need to hype

2402
01:50:02,280 --> 01:50:05,760
Speaker 1: up produce upcoming basketball season anymore because it has the

2403
01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:07,799
Speaker 1: makings to be one of the more special sports stories

2404
01:50:07,840 --> 01:50:11,400
Speaker 1: that our state has had. The Boilers can finish that

2405
01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:13,960
Speaker 1: off right here inside of Lucasolo Stadium come April.

2406
01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:15,120
Speaker 5: So yes, it is.

2407
01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:17,080
Speaker 1: It's been a fun, fun time.

2408
01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:18,639
Speaker 3: The only way it sucks is if you're a Notre

2409
01:50:18,720 --> 01:50:20,640
Speaker 3: Dame football fan and a Reds fan right now, That's

2410
01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:21,519
Speaker 3: the only way it sucks.

2411
01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:26,000
Speaker 4: Cut the camera.

2412
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 1: I'd strongly disagree with that. Again, I think from a

2413
01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:32,320
Speaker 1: fandom standpoint, you still have to enjoy the Highs and

2414
01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:34,720
Speaker 1: Notre Dame provided their fan base the high of all

2415
01:50:34,840 --> 01:50:37,679
Speaker 1: Highs over the last thirty years. So I know maybe

2416
01:50:37,720 --> 01:50:40,400
Speaker 1: the Bears aren't used to that mark, but definitely not

2417
01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:42,559
Speaker 1: or not Yeah, I can't go there.

2418
01:50:43,400 --> 01:50:47,560
Speaker 6: I will say this on a less contentious note, I

2419
01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:49,360
Speaker 6: have a question for you all, and this is actually

2420
01:50:49,439 --> 01:50:53,760
Speaker 6: kind of serious excluding the addition of Daniel Jones, and

2421
01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:55,280
Speaker 6: I have a story on this in The Athletic just

2422
01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:57,479
Speaker 6: went live this morning. Please if you're listening to go

2423
01:50:57,600 --> 01:51:03,680
Speaker 6: check that out. What is the best offseason decision that

2424
01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:09,680
Speaker 6: Chris Ballard made, exclude Daniel Jones? Looking at what he

2425
01:51:09,840 --> 01:51:12,120
Speaker 6: had to do with this roster, the choices he made,

2426
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:19,040
Speaker 6: offensive line, retooled, secondary, retooled, new defensive coordinator, new kicker.

2427
01:51:20,160 --> 01:51:21,840
Speaker 6: What are some things that stand out to you about

2428
01:51:22,200 --> 01:51:24,920
Speaker 6: what has been I guess some swings and some hits.

2429
01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:27,280
Speaker 1: I Ballard, it's got to be in a rumo. Nothing

2430
01:51:27,320 --> 01:51:29,519
Speaker 1: against Tyler Warren and Tyler Warren to me seemed like

2431
01:51:29,560 --> 01:51:30,120
Speaker 1: a no brainer.

2432
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:33,280
Speaker 5: Well he didn't. Didn't passer though for one?

2433
01:51:33,439 --> 01:51:36,479
Speaker 1: Well sure, and you know again, if Kenneth gran would

2434
01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:39,000
Speaker 1: have been sitting there at number fourteen, boy, can you

2435
01:51:39,120 --> 01:51:41,960
Speaker 1: imagine where we would be right now talking about the

2436
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:45,160
Speaker 1: Colts without Tyler Warren? But nonetheless, why I say an

2437
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:48,360
Speaker 1: rumo James, because that is a different philosophy for Chris Ballard.

2438
01:51:49,240 --> 01:51:52,080
Speaker 1: It's not Mattie Refluse, it's not Gus Bradley. It's a

2439
01:51:52,240 --> 01:51:55,960
Speaker 1: change in defensive direction. So like that's him ripping up

2440
01:51:55,960 --> 01:51:57,720
Speaker 1: the blueprint and the binder that he took to Jim

2441
01:51:57,840 --> 01:52:00,280
Speaker 1: Or saying twenty seventeen and him saying, and you know

2442
01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:03,360
Speaker 1: what about that defensive page in there, I think we

2443
01:52:03,439 --> 01:52:08,000
Speaker 1: got to change it. We need to be more aggressive disguising.

2444
01:52:08,360 --> 01:52:10,040
Speaker 1: So that, to me, I think it is the first

2445
01:52:10,160 --> 01:52:15,719
Speaker 1: big domino of OK, We're gonna change our philosophical defensive mindset,

2446
01:52:15,760 --> 01:52:17,320
Speaker 1: because I think I don't think Cam buying him in

2447
01:52:17,320 --> 01:52:19,280
Speaker 1: Tavari's ward happened without Lou.

2448
01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:20,559
Speaker 4: Good point.

2449
01:52:20,760 --> 01:52:22,559
Speaker 6: Good point because I was also going to follow up

2450
01:52:22,600 --> 01:52:25,080
Speaker 6: to say, how collaborative do you think that process was

2451
01:52:25,160 --> 01:52:28,040
Speaker 6: between Shane and Oh definitely yeah, yeah, because Shane, I

2452
01:52:28,040 --> 01:52:30,839
Speaker 6: would imagine, also had a huge saying this, and ultimately

2453
01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:32,840
Speaker 6: it is his staff to be able to say, you

2454
01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:35,439
Speaker 6: know what, we asked him this when he first hired Lou.

2455
01:52:36,280 --> 01:52:38,519
Speaker 4: He was one of the guys that gave me problems exactly.

2456
01:52:38,560 --> 01:52:40,200
Speaker 6: And we can kind of see now and take why

2457
01:52:40,280 --> 01:52:42,639
Speaker 6: because it's some of the stuff he's doing. I'm like, well,

2458
01:52:42,720 --> 01:52:45,800
Speaker 6: I haven't seen this, you know, throughout my time fourth

2459
01:52:45,920 --> 01:52:48,160
Speaker 6: year covering the Colts, watching this defense operator.

2460
01:52:48,200 --> 01:52:50,320
Speaker 1: That's a great point, and just one more thing to

2461
01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 1: add on it, James, when you brought up Lou getting hired,

2462
01:52:53,640 --> 01:52:56,439
Speaker 1: I remember the twenty twenty three game down there when

2463
01:52:57,680 --> 01:53:00,519
Speaker 1: Lou's defense got the best of Shane, and I was curious,

2464
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,800
Speaker 1: was there any more instances of that in their backgrounds?

2465
01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:07,360
Speaker 1: And there was one lew and Cincinnati, Shane back with

2466
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:12,599
Speaker 1: the Chargers, and I forget the exact number. I'm gonna

2467
01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:14,120
Speaker 1: be off on this a little bit, but I want

2468
01:53:14,160 --> 01:53:16,800
Speaker 1: to say Shane Stike and his face loui Anarumo two

2469
01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:19,519
Speaker 1: times in his NFL career as a play caller versus

2470
01:53:19,600 --> 01:53:23,200
Speaker 1: play caller, and I think it's like two touchdowns in

2471
01:53:23,400 --> 01:53:26,000
Speaker 1: fifteen drives. I could be a little off on that ratio,

2472
01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:29,640
Speaker 1: but it ain't good. And so when that happened, it

2473
01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:32,720
Speaker 1: goes pretty clear. Yes, it is a good point. I

2474
01:53:32,720 --> 01:53:36,479
Speaker 1: think there is a collaborative effort there, and as there

2475
01:53:36,520 --> 01:53:39,120
Speaker 1: should be. I mean, I've always been very bullish to me,

2476
01:53:39,680 --> 01:53:44,479
Speaker 1: I've always thought the head coach should have big big

2477
01:53:44,640 --> 01:53:47,720
Speaker 1: say in who his coordinator is, like Frank Reich, big

2478
01:53:47,840 --> 01:53:50,400
Speaker 1: big say again, you know Matt Eberfluss was given to

2479
01:53:50,439 --> 01:53:53,879
Speaker 1: Frank Raig if you remember all that McDaniel's fiasco and everything.

2480
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:57,760
Speaker 1: To me that needed to be that. You know, Gus

2481
01:53:57,840 --> 01:54:00,080
Speaker 1: Bradley stayed on. I get Shane had a relationship with

2482
01:54:00,160 --> 01:54:03,439
Speaker 1: Gus Bradley, but still to me, your head coach matters

2483
01:54:03,479 --> 01:54:05,800
Speaker 1: socially your play caller because they do go hand in hand.

2484
01:54:05,960 --> 01:54:08,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, question for you guys in the AFC South, what

2485
01:54:09,160 --> 01:54:12,360
Speaker 5: is more surprising early on the Colts two and O

2486
01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:13,880
Speaker 5: or the Texans ozho and two.

2487
01:54:17,040 --> 01:54:19,599
Speaker 1: Uh, that's a good one. I'd probably say Houston oh

2488
01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:23,280
Speaker 1: and two. Just I mean they played the Rams on

2489
01:54:23,320 --> 01:54:25,479
Speaker 1: the road week one. I mean that's that's a tough game.

2490
01:54:25,560 --> 01:54:28,439
Speaker 1: I don't want to discredit the Rams by any means,

2491
01:54:28,560 --> 01:54:32,600
Speaker 1: but yeah, I would I would have thought they would

2492
01:54:32,600 --> 01:54:34,560
Speaker 1: have beaten Tampa on on Monday Night. I mean the

2493
01:54:34,640 --> 01:54:37,200
Speaker 1: Cults were what a slight underdog to Denver and a

2494
01:54:37,280 --> 01:54:40,160
Speaker 1: favorite over Miami. So like again the cult tattoo home games,

2495
01:54:40,200 --> 01:54:42,320
Speaker 1: I don't think it's how going back to what I

2496
01:54:42,360 --> 01:54:44,440
Speaker 1: said earlier, how the culture two and oh is a

2497
01:54:44,480 --> 01:54:47,840
Speaker 1: shocking aspect, but I'd probably say Texans at oh and two.

2498
01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:51,480
Speaker 4: James, I'd probably go Colts two and oh. And I

2499
01:54:51,560 --> 01:54:52,880
Speaker 4: think a lot of that has to do with.

2500
01:54:54,360 --> 01:54:58,800
Speaker 6: The end of that game on Sunday, Kevin, because I

2501
01:54:58,880 --> 01:55:02,240
Speaker 6: feel like talk into Colts fans throughout social media and

2502
01:55:02,280 --> 01:55:06,440
Speaker 6: if you in person, after that game, they felt like

2503
01:55:06,520 --> 01:55:09,360
Speaker 6: they got a little gift from the football guys, like

2504
01:55:09,520 --> 01:55:12,080
Speaker 6: you owed me one, you know, after Andrew luck in

2505
01:55:12,200 --> 01:55:14,200
Speaker 6: our quarterback you know, Merry go Round.

2506
01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:16,440
Speaker 4: We deserved a break, and that's what they got.

2507
01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:18,920
Speaker 6: I mean without that huge break, you know, just the

2508
01:55:19,000 --> 01:55:22,520
Speaker 6: dumb penalty that wasn't any little gift. I mean, oh, huge,

2509
01:55:22,600 --> 01:55:23,520
Speaker 6: huge gift.

2510
01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:25,320
Speaker 5: Fifteen yard closer field goal.

2511
01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:28,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was the gift the Carmel mansions give to

2512
01:55:28,640 --> 01:55:29,720
Speaker 1: their kids on Christmas.

2513
01:55:29,880 --> 01:55:33,560
Speaker 6: Absolutely, So I think that aspect of it, because in

2514
01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:35,440
Speaker 6: my opinion, I expected the Coast to be one and

2515
01:55:35,520 --> 01:55:37,920
Speaker 6: one after two weeks, and the fact they also haven't

2516
01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:39,960
Speaker 6: been too and oh to two thousand and nine. Here's

2517
01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:42,080
Speaker 6: a fun fact for you, and see if you can

2518
01:55:42,120 --> 01:55:44,320
Speaker 6: guess the team. There's one team because that was the

2519
01:55:44,400 --> 01:55:48,520
Speaker 6: second longest streak in the NFL without starting two and oh,

2520
01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:51,440
Speaker 6: you guess the team that has the longest streak currently

2521
01:55:51,520 --> 01:55:52,440
Speaker 6: of not starting.

2522
01:55:52,160 --> 01:55:54,839
Speaker 1: To and oh, Browns.

2523
01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:56,040
Speaker 4: There you have it.

2524
01:55:56,120 --> 01:55:57,200
Speaker 5: And then I was gonna say, Jets.

2525
01:55:57,880 --> 01:56:00,160
Speaker 4: This is what's so crazy about it. They have even

2526
01:56:00,240 --> 01:56:02,880
Speaker 4: started two and oh since nineteen ninety three.

2527
01:56:03,560 --> 01:56:04,080
Speaker 1: The Browns.

2528
01:56:04,280 --> 01:56:05,600
Speaker 4: Yes, I was even alive.

2529
01:56:06,360 --> 01:56:09,480
Speaker 6: Gosh, that that to me is inside we're not saying

2530
01:56:09,880 --> 01:56:12,000
Speaker 6: four and oh, we're not saying division.

2531
01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:17,040
Speaker 5: Is the most Browns stat ever for Tom Pritchard.

2532
01:56:17,080 --> 01:56:17,720
Speaker 1: Browns fan out.

2533
01:56:18,360 --> 01:56:20,520
Speaker 4: Oh man, crazy stuff.

2534
01:56:20,720 --> 01:56:22,760
Speaker 5: That's crazier than the list of quarterbacks.

2535
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:26,680
Speaker 6: Again that but also it kind of gives me some

2536
01:56:26,760 --> 01:56:29,920
Speaker 6: perspective on where the Colts have kind of been. And

2537
01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:31,920
Speaker 6: not to said they haven't had good teams between two

2538
01:56:31,920 --> 01:56:34,160
Speaker 6: thousand and nine and now. Obviously they've had some Andrew

2539
01:56:34,240 --> 01:56:37,000
Speaker 6: lucky years where they made some runs. But to get

2540
01:56:37,080 --> 01:56:39,920
Speaker 6: back to this current team B two and oh in

2541
01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:41,880
Speaker 6: the manner luck you said, Kevin, and what's your two

2542
01:56:41,880 --> 01:56:42,120
Speaker 6: and oh?

2543
01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:45,480
Speaker 4: Maybe you got not even maybe you got very lucky

2544
01:56:45,560 --> 01:56:46,040
Speaker 4: last week.

2545
01:56:46,360 --> 01:56:48,480
Speaker 6: You know, you have some questionable coaching decisions at the end,

2546
01:56:48,960 --> 01:56:51,200
Speaker 6: but you don't apologize for that and you move on

2547
01:56:51,400 --> 01:56:55,680
Speaker 6: and now again you have a silver platter AFC South,

2548
01:56:56,200 --> 01:56:58,080
Speaker 6: Your two and oh, got a chance for your first

2549
01:56:58,120 --> 01:57:01,080
Speaker 6: division game to be three and oh against lowly Titans,

2550
01:57:01,360 --> 01:57:03,880
Speaker 6: and continue to put pressure on the rest of your

2551
01:57:03,960 --> 01:57:07,040
Speaker 6: division because right now the margin for Aaron Houston is

2552
01:57:07,400 --> 01:57:10,000
Speaker 6: very little. Like they can't afford ain't going on the

2553
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:11,880
Speaker 6: board this week. They can't afford to be owing three.

2554
01:57:11,880 --> 01:57:13,200
Speaker 6: I don't know how many own three teams to make

2555
01:57:13,200 --> 01:57:13,680
Speaker 6: the playoffs.

2556
01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:15,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, Texans, Jags, Yeah, they got to get on the

2557
01:57:15,920 --> 01:57:18,040
Speaker 4: board someone if they want to get back in this race, right.

2558
01:57:18,320 --> 01:57:19,760
Speaker 1: And just to add one thing for was that missed

2559
01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:21,720
Speaker 1: it earlier and with James is referencing what I was

2560
01:57:21,760 --> 01:57:24,080
Speaker 1: referencing and how the cult are too and oh they're

2561
01:57:24,120 --> 01:57:26,440
Speaker 1: two and oh largely because of Daniel Jones's right arm,

2562
01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:29,880
Speaker 1: and that to me is a huge difference maker. And

2563
01:57:29,920 --> 01:57:31,880
Speaker 1: again to go back to what I was saying earlier.

2564
01:57:32,160 --> 01:57:34,960
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two, Ross Tucker brought this up point.

2565
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:36,440
Speaker 1: He had him on the nine o'clock hour. You know,

2566
01:57:36,520 --> 01:57:38,640
Speaker 1: they go on and they win win a road playoff game.

2567
01:57:38,640 --> 01:57:41,040
Speaker 1: They beat Minnesota on the road. Daniel Jones was a

2568
01:57:41,320 --> 01:57:44,440
Speaker 1: runner that season. He had seven hundred rushing yards. The

2569
01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:47,480
Speaker 1: fact that he is delivering right now as a thrower. First,

2570
01:57:48,360 --> 01:57:53,760
Speaker 1: that is another positive element to his game. Like, yes,

2571
01:57:53,880 --> 01:57:56,440
Speaker 1: I think he can run a little, but like some

2572
01:57:56,520 --> 01:57:58,960
Speaker 1: of the run stuff can be fluky, like that stuff

2573
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:01,080
Speaker 1: can be you know, it's kind of a weird scramble

2574
01:58:01,120 --> 01:58:01,800
Speaker 1: here there.

2575
01:58:01,960 --> 01:58:04,520
Speaker 5: Or defense breaks down. Safety is not where he's supposed

2576
01:58:04,520 --> 01:58:05,720
Speaker 5: to be at all of a sudden. The right side's

2577
01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:06,200
Speaker 5: wide open.

2578
01:58:06,280 --> 01:58:07,560
Speaker 1: You know, if you get a leg injury all of

2579
01:58:07,600 --> 01:58:10,000
Speaker 1: a sudden, your ability to run it might not be there.

2580
01:58:10,200 --> 01:58:12,280
Speaker 1: So for the fact that Daniel Jones delivering so much

2581
01:58:12,680 --> 01:58:15,320
Speaker 1: as a thrower and you're two or zero, yeah, that

2582
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:17,960
Speaker 1: to me is a big shocking element. Uh, if you

2583
01:58:18,040 --> 01:58:19,680
Speaker 1: guys don't mind, I think Mark Dyketon and I are

2584
01:58:19,680 --> 01:58:22,360
Speaker 1: going to try to stump you too after the break.

2585
01:58:22,440 --> 01:58:22,680
Speaker 7: Got that.

2586
01:58:22,840 --> 01:58:26,240
Speaker 5: Mark also feeling somewhat generous today, What do you have?

2587
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:26,600
Speaker 7: Mark?

2588
01:58:27,360 --> 01:58:29,880
Speaker 3: Four pack of tickets to the Indie eleven game as

2589
01:58:29,920 --> 01:58:33,240
Speaker 3: they take on the Birmingham Legion that is Sunday at

2590
01:58:33,360 --> 01:58:35,080
Speaker 3: five Hispanic Heritage.

2591
01:58:34,760 --> 01:58:37,400
Speaker 4: Night out there at at the.

2592
01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:40,920
Speaker 5: Carrol Stadium. Yes, thank you.

2593
01:58:41,520 --> 01:58:44,280
Speaker 3: So if you want to go three, one, seven, seventy,

2594
01:58:44,320 --> 01:58:47,280
Speaker 3: give us a ring first caller, give us the first

2595
01:58:47,360 --> 01:58:48,200
Speaker 3: four pack of tickets.

2596
01:58:48,440 --> 01:58:49,160
Speaker 5: We're going to.

2597
01:58:49,200 --> 01:58:52,080
Speaker 1: Try and stump you against someone that I know has

2598
01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:56,920
Speaker 1: a smarter IQ than either of you two. Okay, that's

2599
01:58:56,960 --> 01:58:57,520
Speaker 1: not saying.

2600
01:58:57,360 --> 01:58:59,240
Speaker 4: That to be you know a genius.

2601
01:59:00,200 --> 01:59:00,480
Speaker 7: You know me?

2602
01:59:00,840 --> 01:59:01,240
Speaker 5: You got that.

2603
01:59:03,000 --> 01:59:03,160
Speaker 7: For that?

2604
01:59:03,400 --> 01:59:04,480
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm born ready.

2605
01:59:04,600 --> 01:59:07,320
Speaker 5: We'll do that Wednesday morning.

2606
01:59:07,400 --> 01:59:08,240
Speaker 7: Midway through the week.

2607
01:59:08,280 --> 01:59:10,360
Speaker 5: We got a colts game coming up on Sunday afternoon

2608
01:59:10,360 --> 01:59:13,440
Speaker 5: against the Tennessee Titans. The Fever play another playoff game

2609
01:59:13,480 --> 01:59:17,800
Speaker 5: tomorrow night, deciding Game three at Atlanta. Looking forward to that.

2610
01:59:17,960 --> 01:59:20,520

01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:33,280

01:59:33,320 --> 01:59:34,400
Speaker 1: that sound good? Mark?

2618
01:59:34,520 --> 01:59:34,760
Speaker 7: Sure?

Speaker 13: Brian Hoyer and and Gardner mentioned Gardner minshaw, Wow, a

Speaker 13: wazoo legend.

02:02:08,600 --> 02:02:09,480
Speaker 5: I think we got them all.

2670
02:02:09,920 --> 02:02:11,520
Speaker 13: I'm a little embarrassed I didn't get them all.

2671
02:02:11,640 --> 02:02:12,360
Speaker 5: Thanks for the help.

2672
02:02:13,160 --> 02:02:17,040
Speaker 1: Look of a disrespect on Matt Ryan. Guys, it was

2673
02:02:17,280 --> 02:02:19,800
Speaker 1: not come and the man was a play away from

2674
02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:20,880
Speaker 1: winning a Super Bowl.

2675
02:02:20,960 --> 02:02:22,800
Speaker 5: Aren't we have Matt Ryan? Thank you?

2676
02:02:22,960 --> 02:02:25,400
Speaker 1: Mark. Aren't there certain things you just wiped from your memory?

2677
02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:27,720
Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised you guys didn't get Matt Ryan.

2678
02:02:27,760 --> 02:02:30,160
Speaker 1: I think it's hard to name all ten. He didn't

2679
02:02:30,160 --> 02:02:32,680
Speaker 1: get Matt Ryan, I know, I mean he started for

2680
02:02:32,760 --> 02:02:33,600
Speaker 1: a long time.

2681
02:02:34,360 --> 02:02:36,800
Speaker 5: I think it's just one of those things everybody collectively

2682
02:02:36,880 --> 02:02:37,960
Speaker 5: just wiped from their memory.

2683
02:02:38,120 --> 02:02:40,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's twenty twenty two season was a mess. But

2684
02:02:40,560 --> 02:02:42,879
Speaker 6: the fact that I got Brian Hoyer and not Matt Ryan.

2685
02:02:42,680 --> 02:02:43,280
Speaker 4: It's pretty bad.

2686
02:02:43,360 --> 02:02:45,600
Speaker 1: You got Hoyer, that was really good. And the fact

2687
02:02:45,600 --> 02:02:47,400
Speaker 1: that Andrew Luck had to ask out loud if sam

2688
02:02:47,440 --> 02:02:49,640
Speaker 1: Ellinger started a game when Jim Er said demanded that

2689
02:02:49,680 --> 02:02:51,840
Speaker 1: sam Ellinger started a game made me laugh a little

2690
02:02:51,880 --> 02:02:52,160
Speaker 1: bit there.

2691
02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:55,840
Speaker 4: Honestly, think that Brian Horror might have started only one game,

2692
02:02:55,960 --> 02:02:56,760
Speaker 4: like literally.

2693
02:02:56,600 --> 02:02:58,200
Speaker 1: Well, it's funny. We brought this up a little bit

2694
02:02:58,280 --> 02:03:01,880
Speaker 1: yesterday and it's probably you know, we aren't there yet,

2695
02:03:01,960 --> 02:03:03,960
Speaker 1: but we might need to start having this conversation soon.

2696
02:03:04,240 --> 02:03:04,400
Speaker 7: You know.

2697
02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:07,600
Speaker 1: The Colts started five and two in the twenty nineteen

2698
02:03:07,720 --> 02:03:13,480
Speaker 1: season five and two with Jacoby, and there are some

2699
02:03:13,600 --> 02:03:15,960
Speaker 1: parallels I think you could make. Honestly, Daniel Jones has

2700
02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:18,560
Speaker 1: been he's been asked to do more, and he has

2701
02:03:18,640 --> 02:03:20,800
Speaker 1: done more in the first two games. But Jacoby had

2702
02:03:20,880 --> 02:03:24,440
Speaker 1: some of these moments in that twenty nineteen season. And

2703
02:03:24,560 --> 02:03:29,200
Speaker 1: then if you guys remember the play Cameron Hayward. Cameron

2704
02:03:29,240 --> 02:03:33,440
Speaker 1: Hayward the Steelers takes Quinton Nelson and drives him back

2705
02:03:33,600 --> 02:03:36,960
Speaker 1: into Jacoby Brissette's knee in Pittsburgh. They're five and two

2706
02:03:37,440 --> 02:03:41,240
Speaker 1: early in the game. He exits, Hoyer comes in and

2707
02:03:41,360 --> 02:03:44,040
Speaker 1: James he throws a pick six to Mika Fitzpatrick. Colts

2708
02:03:44,120 --> 02:03:46,600
Speaker 1: lose that game, and then it was one of these

2709
02:03:46,640 --> 02:03:48,600
Speaker 1: things like, well Bursett play the next week, is he

2710
02:03:48,680 --> 02:03:50,720
Speaker 1: healthy enough? Does he get enough practice time? And I

2711
02:03:50,720 --> 02:03:52,520
Speaker 1: didn't think it was a great decision by Frank Raig.

2712
02:03:52,880 --> 02:03:56,080
Speaker 1: He went with he practiced Jacoby a lot, and in

2713
02:03:56,160 --> 02:03:58,480
Speaker 1: the last minute he decided to go with Hoyer against

2714
02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:01,360
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins. They lost game, and that twenty nineteen

2715
02:04:01,440 --> 02:04:05,560
Speaker 1: season kind of slowly unraveled after that. But yeah, the

2716
02:04:05,640 --> 02:04:09,920
Speaker 1: Hoyer experience was not very long and didn't have a

2717
02:04:09,960 --> 02:04:10,600
Speaker 1: lot of success.

2718
02:04:11,560 --> 02:04:14,400
Speaker 5: I remember the Jacoby if you want to call it

2719
02:04:14,480 --> 02:04:18,440
Speaker 5: era whatever, you remember that play he made against the

2720
02:04:18,520 --> 02:04:22,800
Speaker 5: Denver Broncos where he just threw this amazing rope escaping

2721
02:04:23,560 --> 02:04:27,040
Speaker 5: an incredible rush. It was I thought to myself, Man,

2722
02:04:27,080 --> 02:04:28,800
Speaker 5: if we can get that kind of play from Jacoby

2723
02:04:28,840 --> 02:04:30,800
Speaker 5: per set. This Colts team is gonna be a lot

2724
02:04:30,840 --> 02:04:32,120
Speaker 5: of fun to watch that year. And I think that

2725
02:04:32,200 --> 02:04:33,560
Speaker 5: did go on to be five and two begain.

2726
02:04:33,680 --> 02:04:36,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he had some definite moments, but you

2727
02:04:36,360 --> 02:04:39,320
Speaker 1: know again that five and two turned into seven and nine,

2728
02:04:39,400 --> 02:04:42,040
Speaker 1: so it's probably just one of these reminders. Think and

2729
02:04:42,120 --> 02:04:44,960
Speaker 1: Jacobe got hurt. He ended up still coming back and playing,

2730
02:04:45,000 --> 02:04:47,440
Speaker 1: but not very well the rest of the season. But man,

2731
02:04:47,480 --> 02:04:50,400
Speaker 1: the NFL season, it can be a grind. Yeah, seventeen

2732
02:04:50,440 --> 02:04:52,320
Speaker 1: weeks is a long long time.

2733
02:04:54,240 --> 02:04:56,080
Speaker 5: Who won the family four pack?

2734
02:04:56,200 --> 02:04:59,360
Speaker 3: Mark Taechton, Jordan very excited to go. So we'll have

2735
02:04:59,720 --> 02:05:02,080
Speaker 3: an other four pack tomorrow and on Friday. So if

2736
02:05:02,080 --> 02:05:04,880
Speaker 3: you didn't win today, got another couple of chances this week.

2737
02:05:05,160 --> 02:05:06,720
Speaker 5: All right, sounds good. A couple of people on the

2738
02:05:07,640 --> 02:05:11,000
Speaker 5: WFNI fan text line. I guess w FNI is old now,

2739
02:05:11,080 --> 02:05:15,000
Speaker 5: but on the fan text line was Ross checking out

2740
02:05:15,000 --> 02:05:16,120
Speaker 5: at the grocery store or something?

2741
02:05:16,880 --> 02:05:17,360
Speaker 7: I heard it.

2742
02:05:17,480 --> 02:05:20,280
Speaker 1: I heard a lot of beeps when Ross Tucker joined

2743
02:05:20,360 --> 02:05:21,880
Speaker 1: us earlier. It sounded like he might have been at

2744
02:05:21,920 --> 02:05:23,880
Speaker 1: self checkout. Do you guys self check out or do

2745
02:05:23,920 --> 02:05:24,120
Speaker 1: you do.

2746
02:05:25,320 --> 02:05:27,680
Speaker 5: If I can avoid self checkout, I do. I know

2747
02:05:27,760 --> 02:05:30,120
Speaker 5: I'm old fashioned. I always feel like it's just another

2748
02:05:30,160 --> 02:05:31,760
Speaker 5: step in taking people's jobs away.

2749
02:05:32,040 --> 02:05:34,320
Speaker 4: So I self check out because I feel like that's

2750
02:05:34,400 --> 02:05:36,640
Speaker 4: just what is most available.

2751
02:05:37,080 --> 02:05:39,640
Speaker 5: Most usually is tours online. That's what I do.

2752
02:05:39,720 --> 02:05:41,320
Speaker 1: But now Jeff has me thinking that I'm a bad

2753
02:05:41,400 --> 02:05:42,360
Speaker 1: person for them something.

2754
02:05:42,400 --> 02:05:43,000
Speaker 5: He's a bad person.

2755
02:05:43,400 --> 02:05:44,840
Speaker 3: And I also don't like how you do self checkout

2756
02:05:44,880 --> 02:05:46,280
Speaker 3: and they're like, we need to see the receipt. No, no, no,

2757
02:05:46,400 --> 02:05:48,640
Speaker 3: you're making me do the job for you. Just assume

2758
02:05:48,720 --> 02:05:51,400
Speaker 3: that I scanned everything I did, the coupons, I did

2759
02:05:51,480 --> 02:05:53,000
Speaker 3: all that. You don't need to see the receipt. I've

2760
02:05:53,040 --> 02:05:53,640
Speaker 3: done the job.

2761
02:05:53,760 --> 02:05:55,760
Speaker 5: And that's my feeling. If they if they would pay

2762
02:05:55,880 --> 02:05:58,720
Speaker 5: someone to do that job, which they should do, then

2763
02:05:58,800 --> 02:06:00,640
Speaker 5: we wouldn't have to be I receipt.

2764
02:06:00,800 --> 02:06:01,240
Speaker 4: It's true.

2765
02:06:01,360 --> 02:06:04,600
